Occasionally Christians will ask, what is a dinosaur? Scientists found its fossils, which confirmed the theory of evolution. The answer is simple: dinosaurs are just one of the extinct creatures. There are many extinct creatures in the world, and evolution cannot be proved.

Not only that, because dinosaur fossils are often found together with fossils of other animals and plants, which proves that creationism is more credible. Why? Please see: Dinosaurs and Non-Dinosaur Fossils Together-Witness Creation.

Do you know that?/You know what? Do you know that?/You know what? China has dinosaur fossils, which were also found together with non-dinosaur fossils. Please read: dinosaur fossils discovered by floods in China.

Finally, because dinosaurs are one of God's creations, it is likely that they were mentioned in the Bible. Christian scientists speculate that these fossils were caused by Noah's flood. Please see: "Dinosaurs are God's creation".

1. The dinosaur fossils in China were produced by floods.

On the dinosaur bone bed in China, we found the teeth and bones of Tyrannosaurus Rex, and its remains showed that the creature was more than 30 feet long from the tip of the nose to the tail. 1 How did this huge creature become a fossil with many other dinosaurs?

The researchers estimated that the dinosaur weighed six tons. David Honen is now studying fossils at University College Dublin. He published a report in Cretaceous Research and was the chief researcher of this paper. He told the Daily Telegraph: "It is a giant Tyrannosaurus Rex, and it is not found every day. It's the biggest predator ever. 」3

This huge creature is nicknamed "Zhuchengtyrannus magnus" because of its location, which means "Zhucheng Tyrannus". How did it get to the open-pit mine in Shandong, the "world's largest concentration of dinosaur bones"? When we try to rebuild the environment where this behemoth died and became a fossil. We can speculate that if it dies naturally under normal circumstances, other animals will soon eat its body, and if there is any left, it will soon rot. This situation is still happening today. So no matter what happens to it, it must come quickly-faster than the decomposition of the body.

The Telegraph reported: "Research shows that there are so many dinosaur fossils in this place because it is a large plain and easily submerged by water, so the dinosaur bodies are washed together and turned into fossils. In other words, these creatures were suddenly attacked by floods and died. But how strong does this flood need to be? It needs enough power to wash away six tons of animals and then bury them with other dinosaurs so that their fossils can be in the same place.

The dinosaur fossil bed in China seems to be an example of the "fossil graveyard" mentioned by Henry Morris. 1974 He said: "Every continent in the world has similar dinosaur cemeteries. Let me challenge the equalists once again and ask them to point out that there is a phenomenon of equalitarianism everywhere on the earth today. 」4

Homogenists believe that today's slow changes can explain everything in the past. However, the slow change now can't move such a huge animal, nor can it be preserved as a fossil. Then, the source that can best explain many phenomena on the earth is of course disaster, not gradual change. The Bible talks about a flood, which was powerful enough to subdue the largest land animals and bury them in fossil cemeteries.

Second, dinosaurs and non-dinosaur fossils are together-witnessing creation.

According to evolutionists, dinosaurs appeared before birds and non-reptile land animals, or when there were only a few "primitive" forms. However, a recent online interview in National Geographic summed up a dinosaur fossil discovery in Madagascar, just like most places where dinosaur fossils are piled up (but not dinosaur exhibitions in museums) are rich in non-dinosaur fossils.

Whether dinosaurs coexist with many different kinds of creatures is a very important question, because the history of dinosaurs told by evolution is very different from that told by the Bible. According to the theory of evolution, dinosaurs flourished in some "times" millions of years ago; But according to the Bible, all animals and plants were created in six days. If the former is right, then dinosaur fossils should basically exist alone; If the latter is correct, then dinosaurs should be found along with other birds, mammals and various plants.

Dr. Carl Werner set out to conduct a large-scale investigation on evolution, and the results were published in a series of books and videos. In a video called "Evolution: Living Fossils in the Second Part of the Big Experiment", he explained his prediction of dinosaur rock formations and fossils:

If the theory of evolution is wrong and animals have not changed with time, I should find modern plants and modern animals in dinosaur rock formations. In fact, this is exactly what I found. 1

But to find them, he must go behind the exhibition in the museum and walk into the scientific literature, because there are no such scenes on display in the museum. In an interview with Creation magazine, Werner said that there are "fossils of every major invertebrate family still alive today" and "fish with cartilage" ... fish with bones ... fish without jaws "and" modern frogs and salamanders ",and" all reptiles today "are mixed with dinosaurs and parrots. 2

David kross of the State University of New York at Stony Brook spent more than ten years developing a kind of stone bed in Madagascar. An interview with the American Geographic magazine pointed out his "most interesting and important discovery". He found a large number of human remains consistent with Werner's prediction that many non-dinosaurs and dinosaurs were in the same rock layer. three

Discovered with dinosaurs, there is an extinct bird called Rahonavis; A short crocodile-like creature called Simosuchus; There is another kind of toad, which Klaus and his colleagues call the devil. Except that it is twice as big as today's largest toad (10 kg), it is no different from modern toad.

None of the above can make people think that biology is changing from one kind to another, not as good as Darwinism predicted; On the contrary, we find that each one is fully formed. I don't know what else the Madagascar task force found, such as birds, amphibians and even mammals, but it hasn't been published yet.

There are also creatures in different habitats in the dinosaur fossil layer, including terrestrial and aquatic. four

Evolution can't explain this. However, if all these creatures were created at the same time, and the catastrophic mudslide caused by the flood that destroyed the whole land and its residues submerged these creatures for a year, this is completely predictable.

Third, dinosaurs were God's creation.

"In the beginning, God created heaven and earth. (Chuangyi 1) This is the most dramatic and important beginning of any chapter of any book. Thus, the world and everything on it-everything-began. The Bible then expounds the living creatures that were created: "God said,' Let the earth produce living creatures according to their kinds; Livestock, insects and wild animals, according to their types. "That's it." (Chuangyi 24)

We have conclusive evidence that many biological species have ceased to exist, including reptiles now called dinosaurs. Their bones prove that several giant herbivorous terrestrial dinosaurs once existed. Remember: God created everything, including "the beasts of the earth".

At first: a perfect world

God's creation was perfect at the beginning. All animals live in harmony with human beings and feed on plants, trees and their fruits. It didn't take long for people to commit crimes, and this perfect world was corrupted in many different ways. First, these creatures prey on each other.

God finally decided to punish this evil all over the earth, but Noah survived because "Noah was a righteous man and a perfect man in his generation." Noah walked with God. "(a 69)

Noah saved contemporary creation.

Noah built an ark and let all creatures, two of each kind, take refuge in the ark and save those animals. This story gave evolutionists an argument against creation: the ark could not hold huge land animals, that is, dinosaurs today. However, it is reasonable for Noah to choose young, small and representative animals, because he understands that space is limited and they can coexist peacefully. After the flood, we don't know what happened to make dinosaurs extinct, but most people speculate that it was climate change.

No matter what it's called, dinosaurs or dinosaurs.

The creature mentioned in section 15- 19 of Chapter 40 of Job, we are quite sure that it is called "dinosaur" today: "Look at the hippo; I succeeded, and so did you. It eats grass like a cow; Its strength is in the waist, and its strength is in the muscles of the abdomen. It wags its tail like a cedar; The tendons of its thighs touch each other. Its bones are like copper pipes; Its limbs are like iron bars. It is God's first creation; The man who created it gave it a sword. Because God described this animal as "the first of all things", it must be magnificent!

"Hippo" (English Bible translated as Behemoth) means "huge beast" in Hebrew. Some people try to compare this animal with elephants or hippos according to our experience, but none of them has a "cedar-like tail"

The Bible is truth.

Elsewhere in the Bible, some animals are also mentioned, which may be different kinds of dinosaurs as we know them:

"... and kill the big fish in the sea. "(Sage 1)

"... he swallowed me like a big fish and filled his stomach with my beautiful things ..." (Jeremiah 5 1: 34)

"... break the head of a big fish in the water. "(poem seventy-four 13)

From its mouth came burning torches and sparks. Smoke comes out of its nostrils, like a boiling pot and a burning reed. Its gas ignited the coal, and flames came out of its mouth. "(Bosch 19-2 1)

"... viper, fire dragon ..." (SAI 36)

The Bible calls these animals "big fish/dragons", probably because there were no "dinosaurs" at that time. Please remember that "dinosaur" is a modern term, which was created by the British anatomist Sir richard owen in 1842 from the Greek words "deinos" and "sauros". They may also be the "Komodo Dragon" who lives with human beings now! We know that science is built on sand, but the Bible is solid. God created us and everything. Please be proud of it.
