Love your lectures. I've learned much & much of what you have spoken of has confirms that the doubts I had in my youth in school being taught from an evolutionist point of view has not been wasted energy. Always loved science it always seem to come easy to me compared to other subjects. True I have no college degree but over the yrs. I've spent so many hours reading and studying I might have earned one if I had went onto higher education. (Was to busy working to pay for wife and child's college education). I thank our Savior Jesus Christ for you folks taking the time to share your studies. Give honor and praise to HIM who lives forever.
For me *you have a Ph degree* already, because you not only took the time to study and aquire the knowledge, you took care of your family and *you also speak with great wisdom and humility*
Very interesting research. Like a great testimony. Keep up the good work!
Does this guy remind any one else of John Wayne? (Great Stuff!)
He has spent much more time in the Grand Canyon, Pilgrim.
I really wish I didn’t see this comment cos now I can’t stop and I still got 30 minutes left.
The voice is pretty close to the duke's.
Ja - interesting thought - this is one tough guy - to present and defend his PhD before a hostile audience took courage and knowledge
He is engaging but not in the same enthusiastic way as Kurt Wise
But in a tough-guy - I know this stuff so sit up and listen - kind of way
John Wayne comes to mind every time I hear him speak.
Great work Dr. Steve.
Thanks for this.
This was so interesting.
Omg Dr Austin! I’d love to go on a tour of the Grand Canyon with him!!!!
Thank you for sharing this.
Dr. Austin, It may be important for you to recall that Josephus mentioned an earthquake during the time of Uzziah and a landslide occurred that affected the King's gardens. I am not a geologist, but I have researched google satellite photos trying to determine where this landslide may have occured.
This may be a good research for you! Thanks
Can anyone explain why a December 18, 1956 Dead Sea 5.7 magnitude earthquake was not reported by the state of Israel, it's media etc.? The USGS reports this December 18, 1956 5.7 mag. Quake but no media coverage elsewhere, this Dead Sea earthquake wouldd have had to been felt in Jordan and Jerusalem.
wondrous, thank you
woooow wonderful, how can I get more details of this information ? thanx
Another interesting one
Thanks Dr Austin
Presenting this information takes courage in the current scientific environment
I notice wikipedia calls this all "pseudo-science" which is predictable I suppose
Well
Your 'pseudo-science' stood up as you defended your PhD and since - I find the model proposed by your group very very exciting
thank you! i was starting on the book of Amos and stopped at 1:2. Surely there was scientific evidence of this foretold earthquake! i made several screenshots for further inquiry. now i am intrigued by the evidence of earthquakes in the cores. Thank you, not only being i formational, but providing other sources for reference
I dont get why people get so upset when you tell them there is no evidence the earth is millions of years old.
Hahaha nice troll! And you got a bite!
@@Moist._Robot beautifully demonstrated for him, you gave no evidence but claimed lots, and seemed to be upset. The ad hominem attack was a nice added bonus. Class.
antonthewall I don't get why people get so upset when you tell them there is no evidence of the supernatural.
Frank Slim I don’t greatly care how old the earth is and I think it is very hard to work out. Around us we have rounded hills with little valleys every 50m ish. If there had been millions of years of erosion here since the sediments were laid down the valleys would be deeper and join up in arêtes. What evidence are you referring to which leads you to the conclusion of millions of years?
@@jamesmaybury7452 You ask for evidence for an old earth. This is easy enough to supply so long as a well-tested and confirmed assumption is accepted.
That is that natural processes today operate at more or less the same rates as they have done in the past. Rivers in the past, for instance, did not flow either like treacle or like fire hoses but like they do today. This reasonable assumption is necessary since it prevents special pleading on the lines that:" Oh, back then things were different!" Once this assumption is agreed, all that is needed is simple observation and inference.
Two naturally formed features should make the point - Conglomerates and Angular Unconformities.
Here is evidence from my own experience. This location was the basis for the coursework practical for my Geology students.
Go to (or Google) Kilkenny Bay on the Bristol Channel coast, south west of Portishead, UK. Two of the rock layers exposed in the low coastal cliffs look superficially similar. Both are made of pebbles cemented in a fine-grained matrix. Both are described as flood deposits. Both are called conglomerates. C1 and C2 for short.
Closer examination shows key differences. The underlying (thus, older) bed C1 is made of smoothly rounded pebbles which frequently touch each other, leaving little room for the matrix. The pebbles are from a variety of quartz-based rocks (with occasional semi-precious jasper) none of which occur locally. Such quartzites are highly resistant to erosion, so, to round them all so smoothly, they must have been transported for a long time/distance. The nearest area with such rocks today is North Wales, over 200km away.
C1 is associated with red sandstones which show depositional structures that today would be seen in tropical river systems with wet/dry seasonal rainfall patterns. The pebbles would need regular high energy conditions, such as wet season flood waters, to move them and round them.
Thus the observed evidence suggests that these beds were deposited by meandering river systems flowing across an arid (red iron oxide colouration) continental environment towards the southern margin of a large landmass.
The other conglomerate C2 overlies the red sandstones and C1, but lies at a different angle. This is an angular unconformity. It can only be explained as a time gap in the depositional sequence.
The younger bed C2 was deposited on an uplifted, tilted and eroded land surface where C1 and the red sandstones happened to outcrop. All three of these processes take time.
Unlike C1, C2 has highly variable grain sizes and consists of boulders and smaller fragments of local rocks (mainly grey limestone) bound together in a reddish matrix of finer-grained sediment. Few fragments are fully rounded; most are hardly rounded at all. This indicates a local source and a short transportation distance.
Again, only a high energy environment could transport such large stones. Similar deposits are observed in hot deserts, where periodic flash floods thunder down valleys carrying all before them (trivia fact - more folk drown in deserts than die of thirst).
So, in summary, the evidence suggests a period of many, many years when massive rivers rounded and deposited sands and pebbles, followed by a time gap of many, many years during which C1 becomes rock and new marine sediments were deposited above it. Then even more time is needed for crustal uplift to occur, and for the newly uplifted desert surface to be weathered, eroded and deposited as C2 on top of C1.
One link among many: avonrigsoutcrop.blogspot.com/2012/05/rigs-of-month-may-portishead-foreshore.html
Both C1 and C2 contain very few fossils (at least, so far!) The red beds below C1 have fossil plant roots (called calcretes) and there is one fish bed (where, it is claimed, scales and plates of the ancient fish called Bothriolepsis can be found. I’ve had no luck). The exception is C2’s large limestone boulders, which often contain fossils of extinct marine life-forms like crinoids, corals and brachiopods. Just along the coast at Portishead, the source rock for the C2 boulders outcrops and these beds contain more of the same. All these fossils, even the corals, are of extinct forms that do not resemble modern organisms. Isn’t that strange? Not ONE fossil of a currently extant species, let alone any sign of human remains.
Here’s another odd thing. Wherever you look, C2 always occurs on top of C1. Never the other way round. And never as a continuous, unbroken, one-after-the-other deposit. There is ALWAYS a time gap - an unconformity.
I’ve tried to keep it simple and have avoided using absolute ages. Even so, the inferred time scale for just these two beds in just this one location must run into many, many thousands of years. That’s not the whole story, but it’ll do to make the point that a maximum timescale of 10,000 years is unsustainable without resorting to supernatural interference, aka magic.
That is, unless you can supply a NATURAL reason for natural processes operating at different rates in the past than those observed today.
Now please find fault, if you can, with these observations and inferences.
As it is stated in the bible when Christ had passed on the cross the earth shaked.
About 27: mark..on siesmites,; does the size of the siesmites determine the intensity of the earthquake ?
Correction to make:
Mikvah is single,
Mikvaot is plural - more than one mikvah.
Good lecture though.
Some additional ones - Israelites crossing the Jordan River - stopped flowing and Jericho walls fell.
Long day of Joshua - earth stopped turning for a while - earthquake
Hezekiah - earth turned backwards - earthquake
Since the first world flood in the time Noah came from, in what way did the holy landscape changes become notable? Are there features that remain from the first world into the second world mentioned in sacred scriptures?
Dr Austin looks like the 1970's actor William Windom
Are earthquakes and volcanic eruptions related? They are related to tsunamis?
Have you watched dutchsinse on CZcams and his earthquake analyses?
what about the big earthquake in yr 701 bc when sundial moved 10 degrees forward then 10 degrees backwards
The fake biblical timeline that you refer to has been exposed as a fraud, a farce, a hoax, a sham, a scam, intentional disinfo and a psy-op - to be aware of the shadow of the sundial moving backwards and forward while being unaware of who has control of this world is rather peculiar. Almost everything you think is real is demonic deception, including the fake biblical timeline of nearly 6,000 years which was concocted by hybrid demons by overlaying the internally contradicting and highly-disputed timeline in the bible onto the fake historical timeline of thousands and thousands of years which is also deception because the "ancient civilizations" didn't exist thousands of years ago - Julius Caesar and Cleopatra didn't live thousands of years ago - the ancient world actually existed in the 1400's, 1500's, 1600's, 1700's and early 1800's - but lying to the the public about their artificially-elongated timeline results in the public failing to realize the pedovore overlords that control our world are the hybrid descents of the fallen angels.
@@WhirledPublishing you’re either a troll or insane
Also in Daniel were the elect where a flood. Meaning an army where it is said the earth will swallow them like the red sea did in the morning exodus. The saying in both instances where the were carried on eagles wings
in divers places with the earth quakes --- meaning when I was young the divers always meant in odd places , not just many :) just a thought
Why was the greatest quake, Gen 10:25 not i n your top 7?
When Earth was torn in two - at the time of Peleg - was a colossal quake - when and where that colossal rip in our Earth occurred is documented in historic records.
mmm - interesting!
brings a whole new interest in the detail of each sentence - this new model
So how does this same channel "debunk" the dating processes using C14,, but then here his representation of that core drilling was dated using C14. ??? Any ideas ?
I thought the same
It looks like they debunk all forms of dating C14 included when it suits them and use the it when it fits into their theories.
@@hektapascal794 Moreover they accept the methodology behind C14 but somehow ignore all the other "atomic clocks" that use the same method. Could this be because these isotopes have half-lifes that are too long for their dogma?
His Light - He shouldn't have used C14 or any other radiometric dating method. None are reliable, nor acceptable as a scientific tool.
@@freemind.. my thoughts exactly
@@freemind.. Please supply ONE link to a peer reviewed scientific journal paper to back up this totally incorrect and unscientific claim. Radiometric dating has been accepted for almost a century now; both methodology and accuracy of results have consistently improved.
BTW by using "scientific" I mean to exclude any "journals" specially created (pun intended) by non-scientific religious dogmatists. Thank you.
If any OP would like a pop-sci intro, I would recommend "The Dating Game" by Cherry Lewis (that's a book title!)
Please stop using NIV it’s been changed,
Hi. Thank you so much for this video! But l'd like to ask something: at 30:33, he mentions the "lunar eclipse" . was this REALLY the cause of the darkness? The crucifixion of Jesus Christ occured near passover, so the moon would have been in opposition to the sun (full moon), so the darkening was not a solar eclipse. Was it a Lunar eclipse? well, no because though the lunar period would have been right for a lunar eclipse, those are only observed at nigh and they are a darkenign of the moonlight, not the sunlight. So i think the darkening of the sun is wholly supernatural. I believe God is sovereign over astonomical events and could have used celestial timing to proclaim his Christ, I also know Dr. Steve Austin to be highly intelligent and educated and would be slow to challenge his knowledge. can anybody please shed some light on this? thanks!
333 the number pops up daily many times for over 10 years now.
@@memyself3712 hi, im not sure what you mean, could you please explain? thanks
I started waking up at 3:33 am pacific time. That number popped up for over 10 years. Sometimes it's when I look at the clock. Sometimes it's my score on a game. Sometimes it's on tv.
I thought here lately it might be Isaiah 33:3. I was asking God to explain it. I googled it and found a CZcamsr that uses 333 in his ID.
Jupiter and Saturn are going to be close on the 21st of this month. December 2020. In Hebrew it is year 5781. That's my house number.
I saw with a lot of people here a few years ago a striped Red/orange planet.
I used to have dreams of fires all around a watchtower. Cars exploding. I asked the woman at the desk what day is it. She replied May 5th. This is what I see on tv. Our sun didn't shine through the smoke.
Searching for a answers for a long time. Back a few years that extra planet eclipsed the sun. I watched it on satellite feed.
So much is going on these days that there lying about it.
Anymore questions? I have thousands of questions.
@@memyself3712 ok, thx.
@@memyself3712 seeing 333 is a sign Angels are talking to you through numbers. You can find the meaning behind it by typing up 333 Angel number meaning
Has a lot of the same vocal elements yes. Were burnin daylight pilgrim.
Thea big and very large earthquakes may well be declining at present and recent times and this may well be because of ongoing settling down in geological terms from the seriously large upheavels of noahs day and the times between the Great flood and later events geologically uptill ABRAHAMS TIME.. EVEN THE TUMES OF JOB SEEEM TO INDICATE ITS WHAT WE WOULD EXPECT.
Stop telling people that sodom and Gomorrah are on the south side of the Dead Sea! If Abraham and Lot were in Ai discussing where to go and lot chose to go east to the “cities of the plain”, then the cities of the plain are to the north of the Dead Sea! Also, Abraham had to rescue Lot when he lived in Hebron (south of Jerusalem) and passed by Salem/Jerusalem on the way home. That means he had to go north and a little East to rescue that dude. Why are basic directions disregarded when trying to locate Sodom and Gomorrah?
When do we first find mention of the Dead Sea? Could its location have been shifted by the events that happened to Sodom and Gomorrah or even later?
@@roblangsdorf8758 , When Lot and Abraham separated, they were in Ai and Lot went east to the “disc of the plain”. The area north of the Dead Sea is roughly shaped like a disc. Ai is west of the disc. Had Lot gone south south east. The Bible would’ve been more specific saying something towards the effect of he went South. But it doesn’t. It says he went east. How do you get south from east?
I submit that earthquakes and other massive geophysical events in the Bible such as floods, fire raining on earth, darkness from falling ash, blood rain, massive hail, and are all a kind of event yet to come at the return of Christ. Jesus himself spoke of one example saying:
“Just as it was in the days of Noah, so also will it be in the days of the Son of Man. People were eating, drinking, marrying and being given in marriage up to the day Noah entered the ark. Then the flood came and destroyed them all.
“It was the same in the days of Lot. People were eating and drinking, buying and selling, planting and building. But the day Lot left Sodom, fire and sulfur rained down from heaven and destroyed them all. It will be JUST LIKE THIS on the day the Son of Man is revealed." Luke 17: 26-30
So earthquakes are decreasing in magnitude over time, but there will still be a “big one” in the end of time. Hal Lindsey has a questionable hermeneutic. I believe that the Bible promises the world will improve over time as Jesus defeats his enemies and when he returns he will offer this world to his father as a world where he is victorious and he will conquer the last enemy which is death.
The world will improve over time?!? Please don't be deceived.
Mt 24 9:13
Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.
And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

The reason people get upset is because its the Truth and they have been taught, and believe , Lies about the bible and therefore God.
It’s a curse to add to or change the Word of God, these Bibles have done that, ur smart men, u could research just a little n understand how God saved his Word for us, how can u take what u want one Bible to say n use it, then switch Bibles to get what u want it to say. Pray u would look into this
Isnt that all preachers doing that. Isnt that why there are hundreds of denominations, hundreds of church with different interpretations of Bible.
Stone Cold got old and got a PhD.
The fall of the walls of Jericho comes to mind.
How can u quote multiple bibles, God is not a God of confusion, he promised his Word would be saved for us to hear, study (just a little) Pastor Hoggard, on CZcams, it’s plain as day,
Genesis isn't history.
