Where is a "6000 year old earth" found in scripture?

Beowulf killed a flying draon with a wingspan of about 50 ft and a venomous bite. It was terrorizing the locals, until Beowulf killed it, but Beowulf was bitten, and died, also.
It's description is that of the Pterosaur, which is what the fiery flying serpents of the Bible seem to be, but not so large as the one Beowulf killed many centuries later.
Pterosaurs are in many historical accounts as flying venemous dragons.

Thanks for that site...to return the favor I give you this site.....Ancient dinisaur depections.
Thank you. I just glimpsed the page and I think every one of those recorded there are also included in the 43 pages of the ooparts site I linked.
Im glad there are more and more sites that people can go to to see the historical proofs of man and "dragons" =dinosaurs, always existing together, from the beginning.
The Bahamas were named by a Jewish man who knew the Hebrew language [though it was not spoken at that time, it was studied and understood by many educated people, esp Jews]. This man was on board with Columbus and evidently saw "the beheme/dragons/dinosaurs" in the Bahamas. There are many reports of such as the "beheme" in modern times, even in Africa, by many native tribes of different tongues. It likes water, and has a certain thundering voice.

Interesting how you dodged the issue of a crucified Jesus coming back to life on day 3. The scientist, YOUR scientist, say it's impossible.

There are many scientists who are Christian.

I know there are....and many of those scientist believe in a young earth.

But, what about the resurrection? Your scientist would tell me it's impossible....How do I reply back?

Your 'faith' tells you different.

Having faith in the resurrection is completely different to having 'faith' in the sure belief of a 6,000 yr old earth my dear friend.

Beowulf is a poem. A fantasy.

Well, lets think about this....

In your verse I read "sea monsters". Job speaks of some sort of sea monster. But no, this verse doesn't mention dragons.

So lets move up a day...

Gen 1:24 Then God said, "Let the earth bring forth living creatures after their kind: cattle and creeping things and "beasts of the earth" after their kind"; and it was so.

Could one of the Beast of the earth be a dinosaur?

Perhaps this is a dragon....you'll need to read before and after this verse...

17"They are joined one to another; They clasp each other and cannot be separated. 18"His sneezes flashforth light, And his eyes are like the eyelids of the morning. 19"Out of his mouth go burning torches; Sparks of fire leap forth

.....antletems, I trust you stand corrected.

Now tell me if I'm wrong...as I often am....are you a pick and choose miracle man?

The bible tells us Adam was created from the dust on day six...which I believe you deny...but here I might also be wrong and don't want to put words into your mouth. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

But, you then believe the same Christ that rose from the dead didn't create like the account in the book of Genesis informs us?

How is that faith different?

Stand corrected! Lots of animals were classed as 'Beasts' in those days! Sea monster to Job could be a giant whale, a killer shark etc. Monster does not necessarily mean a gigantic animal!

If prehistoric dinosaurs were around in those days i am very sure they would have been mentioned in the Bible more graphically! When did they die out? Before or after the flood? If before the flood, why are there 'NO' dinosaurs found with human bones of that time? Why is it that the dinosaurs were fossilised but the human bones were not?

Perhaps it is a dragon!!!?? lol Perhaps it is a pink elephant floating with a ballon?!

Waw, i find it hard to believe that in this modern world we actually have people who think like you do!!! Amazing!!!

Adam was indeed created by God on the 6th day. But, as i have said before, God does not exist in 'Time' He lives outside of 'Time'. 6 days could mean anything. 6 days in Our calendar is, 6 days to us! Ask God how much he could cram into a day. How many years could he cram into a day? Million? Millions?

Jesus rising from the dead is well documented in the NT. It is very very clear. 6,000 yr old earth is a fictional fantasy dreamed up by people who think the weirdest things!!

So, your whole argument stands and falls on what you think? You said "If prehistoric dinosaurs were around in those days i am very sure they would have been mentioned in the Bible more graphically!" Really? Then again the behemoth and the leviathan have been presented to you with great biblical detail.

As to why should we find human bones and dino bones buried together if they were around at the same time...why should we?

Can we prove that Dodo birds and humans once lived together by observing their fossilized remains together in a particular layer of rock? We know that they once coexisted, but can a person point to the fossil record for such information? The chance of finding human fossils is rare. The chance of finding exactly the combination of fossils for which one is searching (in this case, dinosaurs and humans) is even less likely. ref

You know, its pointless trying to discuss the fantasy of a 6,000 yr old earth with people who are lost. Totally lost to reality and face staring facts of life. I do feel sorry for you guys. The world is indeed going mad!

I am out of this thread!

Do you not know the bible was written for man? It is God opening the window a little for us to see what He did? God even numbered the days...God even bracketed the days with normal 24 hour words such as morning and evening....God even brought it up again using 24 hour terms in the Ten commandments when He wrote with his own hand.... For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

....then you mock us for believing the bible by saying.... "dreamed up by people who think the weirdest things!"

Do you believe a dead man rose from the grave on day 3 despite what the medical scientific people say is impossible?

The Gospel of Barnabas spoke of a young earth....I do recognize that Gospel never made it into the bible...but it does show the early christians knew of a young earth....were they mad back then?
Just because within the last several hundred years the concept of an old earth entered into our thinking doesn't mean people are going mad because they believe the bible....People also understand that when you die...on day 3 it is medically impossible to rise from the dead but it's part of your theology...are you mad for believing that?

It surprises me that a man of your faith doesn't believe the words written in Genesis....says science has proven it wrong...the interpretations of old was wrong....since Darwin it has to be re-interpreted..."r, God is the one who created man. Man invented science."......Yet, and once again I say YET, you believe a dead man on day 3 can rise from the dead, despite the FACT medical scientist say it is impossible. Get off the fence.
You misunderstand science. The point and purpose of science is for us to test out our beliefs, no matter how sacred they may be. When it comes to the biblical cosmology, science has rendered that obsolete, since the 16th century. As to people rising from the dead, I know of no doctor who says that is impossible. After all, there are plenty of documented cases today where medicine has brought back someone who was clinically dead. If we can do it, then certainly God can.

We can bring back someone that hasn't fully died but once someone has fully died, science is unable to do anything further. God however can bring someone back to life who has decomposed.
