Documentary evidence of dinosaurs coexisting with humans, challenging the conventional extinction theory. #DinosaurHistory #PrehistoricInteractions
Transcript
Today in the 21st century, most people had been taught that the dinosaur had grown the earth 65 million years ago, and mysteriously died off after a comet hit the earth. Somehow, over millions of years, the surviving dinosaurs then evolved into the birds of today. This idea, though taught in almost every school in major university, has not been supported with evidence from history or the geologic record. It gives no explanation for the vast fossil graveyards found throughout the world, nor does it explain how many kinds of animals found in the fossil record remain alive to this day. Is there a better explanation? Is there scientific and archaeological evidence that gives a simple explanation for what happened to the dinosaurs? In this documentary, you will be given evidence that the dinosaurs have always existed with man. You will discover that ancient man frequently wrote of interactions with dinosaurs throughout recorded history, and you will see evidence to verify this. You will also be shown evidence that there could even be some dinosaurs that have survived to the present day. Finally, we will examine one of the most accurate, interested historical records known to man, the Bible. The Bible gives a far different version of what happened in the history of ancient man that caused the extinction of most dinosaurs. We will look at its claims in light of the evidence that has been presented in this documentary. Before we start, consider this. We all have beliefs and ideas about what we think is true. These are called our pre-suppositions. Sometimes our pre-suppositions are true and sometimes they are false. When considering evidence, it is very difficult to set aside the pre-suppositions that we hold and look at evidence with an unbiased open mind. True, it is sometimes very hard to accept, especially if it is contrary to what we have believed. Much of the evidence that you will see in this video has been ignored by modern-day science, but a close examination of the evidence will reveal some startling conclusions. In 1841, the first use of the term dinosauria, meaning terrible lizard, was created by the famous British anatomism and paleontologists Sir Richard Olin. He used the term for the first time at a meeting of the British Association for the Advancement of Science held in Plymouth. After that meeting, the word dinosaur rapidly became a popular term to describe these giant lizards that were being discovered by paleontologists. During the 1800s, after the first discovery of large dinosaur fossils, scientists began to search the rocks for clues to what had happened to these terrible lizards and other creatures that were buried in the earth. Unfortunately, they became focused on the rocks and buried fossils and failed to examine history for evidence of what had happened to these creatures. So what exactly does the historical record reveal about the dinosaurs? Remember that the word dinosaur was not even created until 1841. Even up until 1891, some dictionaries did not contain the word dinosaur. Prior to this, dinosaurs were known by other names. Every culture had names for them. For example, the name that you are probably the most familiar with is Dragon. Even up until 1946, the word dragon was found in dictionaries and has in its definition this telling description. Names from other cultures include some of the following. Dragon history is nearly universal throughout the world's ancient cultures, where did this global concept originate? Why is this so universal among cultures who were separated by continents? How did societies throughout the world describe, record, draw, etch, so, and carve these creatures with such uniformity if they had not been eye witnesses of them? Let's first examine the written historical record and then move on to the physical evidence. The reports of dragons range from personal encounter reports and science papers to legendary stories like Bill Wolf and the Loch Ness Monster. A well-known old science book, the historian and amelium, claims that dragons were not extinct in the 1500s, but the animals were said to be extremely rare and relatively small by then. In 1572, a scientist named Ulyssis Aldervandis, carefully described a small dragon seen along a farm road in northern Italy. The rare creature was killed by the farmer when he struck it on the head with his walking stick. Aldervandis obtained the dead body and made measurements and a drawing. He even had the animal mounted for a museum. It had a long neck, a very long tail and a fat body. The skeletons of a number of ancient reptile-like creatures called Tena Strobius have similarities to the basic description that he gave one dragon story from the ancient land of Sumer in Babylon tells of the hero Bill Gimesh. He decided to make a name for himself by traveling to a distant land to cut great sea entries needed for his city. He reached the forest with 50 volunteers and discovered a huge reptile-like animal which ate trees and reeds. The story simply says that Bill Gimesh killed it and cut off its head for a trophy. Thousands of dragon stories and pictures can be found in ancient Chinese books in art. One legend tells about a famous Chinese man named you. The story says after the great worldwide flood, you surveyed the land of China and divided it into sections. He built channels to drain the water off to the sea and help make the land livable again. Many snakes and dragons were driven off from the marshlands when you created the new farmlands. Some old Chinese books even tell of a family that kept dragons and raised them to use their blood and body parts for medicines. In 1611, the emperor appointed the post of royal dragon feeder. An Irish writer recorded an encounter with a large beast with iron-like spikes on its tail which pointed backwards. Its head had the shape of a horses and it had thick legs with strong claws. These details match features of dinosaurs like kinshresaurus and stegosaurus which had sharp pointed spines on their tails, thick legs, strong claws and long horse-like skulls. The respected Greek explorer and historian Herodotus described small flying reptiles in ancient Egypt and Arabia. These animals sound amazingly like the small terredactyl, ramphorinkus. They had the same snake-like body and bat-like wings. Many had been killed near the city of Buto in Arabia. He was shown a canyon with many piles of their backbones and ribs. Herodotus said that these animals could sometimes be found in the spice grows. They were small and size and various colors. Large numbers would sometimes gather in the frankincense trees. When workers wanted to gather the trees valuable juices, they would use smelly smoke to drive the flying reptiles away. The well-respected Greekian philosopher Aristotle said that in his time it was common knowledge that creatures like this also existed in Ethiopia. Similar animals, three feet long, were also described in India by the Geographer Stravo. In Plinies book Natural History, written around 7080, he says Africa produces elephants but it is India that produces the largest as well as the dragon. Claudius Alians, a Greek military writer of the second century who wrote Denehcher and amelium around 200 AD in his work stated, the phrygen history also states that dragons are born which reach 10 paces in length. 10 paces, that's about 30 feet. The city of Newerlick in France was renamed in honor of the killing of a dragon there. This animal was reported to be bigger than an ox and had long sharp pointed horns on its head. In 1271 AD, the Great Explorer Marco Polo recorded in his writings that the Chinese Emperor had dragons that pulled his chariot on special occasions. And in his book the travels of Marco Polo, Polo records the following about the Chinese province of Karazan. He states, here are seeing huge serpents, 10 paces in length, and 10 spans in birth of the body. At the forepartner the head they have two short legs having three claws like those of a tiger, with eyes larger than a four penny loaf and very glaring. The jaws are widened up to swallow a man. The teeth are large and sharp and their whole appearance is so formidable that neither man, nor any other kind of animal can approach them without tear. Others are met with a smaller size being 8, 6 or 5 paces long. An Anglo-Saxon Chronicle from AD 793 reported. This year came dreadful for warnings over the land of the Northumbrians, terrifying the people most woefully. These were immense sheets of light rushing through the air and whirlwinds and fiery dragons flying across the firmerman. Alexander the Great reported that when he conquered parts of what is now India in 326 BC, his soldiers were scared by great dragons that lived in caves. In 275 AD, legend says that George of Lydia, a Roman soldier in the guard of the Emperor, Diocletian, killed a dragon while in Libya on a crusade. According to legend, in the 7th century a dragon named Gargue, rose from the waters of the scene river in France. Unlike the typical dragons of mythology, this one did not breathe fire but rather was a water dragon the monster proceeded to lay waste to the countryside around Paris. Saint Roman, the archbishop of Ruin accompanied by only a condemned prisoner, set out to stop the beast. They captured the dragon and let it back to Paris where it was slain and burned. The head however was saved and mounted on a building. In commemoration of this event, architects began to design gutterspouts in the shape of the Gargue, and eventually in the shape of all manner of bizarre creatures, now called Gargueils. There are thousands of other legends of people seeing and killing dragons throughout history. Now let's take a look at the physical evidence that has been found that points to the existence of dinosaurs with man. What you're about to see, you will not see on the Discovery Channel, the History Channel, in the Science Textbooks or in any secular publication. If you happen to see or hear something about any one of the discoveries, you will find that they will be attempts at debunking or proving them to be fake fraud or forgery. However, with careful examination of the facts that surround these discoveries, the truth is undeniable. The highly technical ancient civilization of the Naskin Indians flourished on the southern coast of Peru from around 1 AD to 758 AD. This culture produced in the ray of beautiful crafts and technologies such as ceramics, textiles, and geoglyphs. It is still not understood exactly how the Naskin produced their incredible geoglyphs called the Naskin lines. They also produce thousands of carvings on burial stones. These stone carvings which are known as the Ikastomes are in Inigma. There have been over 16,000 of these remarkable stones found over the past 50 years. They contain images of Bailey life, battle scenes, agriculture practices, medical procedures, advanced technologies, and most amazingly dinosaurs. Many skeptics have tried to debunk the Ikastomes by saying that they are a modern day creation, but the evidence indicates differently. In 1535, Spanish conquistadors came through Peru in the area where the Naskin Indians had lived. They reported finding stones with strange animals carved on them. The designs and patterns on the stones also indicate that they were authentic from the Naskin culture and of the 16,000, only about 500 had carvings of dinosaurs on them. Consequently, many of the carvings have nothing to do with the dinosaurs, whatever. They were simply observations from everyday life of the Naskin culture. In Akambaro, Mexico, since the 1960s over 56,000 ancient clay figurines have been discovered. Many of these clay artifacts are sculptures of dinosaurs. The approximate age of these clay figures is around 4,500 years old. Many people have studied these figures and the opinion of their authenticity is divided. Most who have no preconceived biases believe that they are genuine, but others who believe that the dinosaurs died off millions of years ago, state that they remain skeptical in spite of the radio carbonating and investigative evidence that points to their authenticity. 16th century Aztecs produced this dragon sculpture, the face resembles a dinosaur like the Tyrannosaurus Rex. Several other South American and Central American civilizations have produced similar sculptures. These side-by-side comparisons are very revealing. These central andy artifacts bear a striking resemblance to dinosaurs like Tyrannosaurus Rex and Ceratosaurus. These Mexican figurines created some time between 300 BC to 380 could be replicas of a dinosaur andylosaurus. China, an ancient land shrouded in dragon lore and mystery. The Chinese calendar or zodiac, which was developed as early as 1000 BC, has on it 12 animals, 11 of which are alive today. But the 12th, the dragon, merely a legend, or is it based on a real animal, the dinosaur? It doesn't seem logical that the ancient Chinese, when constructing their zodiac, would include one mythical animal with 11 common animals. A more rational explanation would be that the dragon, which is mentioned so often in ancient Chinese history, is now extinct or very rare. Here are a few examples of Chinese dragons that look extraordinarily like dinosaurs. Could this be some type of soar pod like the Barakia soars? This Chinese pottery artifact looks very similar to the Hadrisaur. In this third century BC ornamental box appears to have soar pod dinosaurs built onto it as handles. This 2500 year old Chinese dragon closely resembles a creature like a diploticus. Central Asia, with its dense rainforests and jungles, is home to many stories about strange dinosaur like monsters, and the artifacts that have been found are quite revealing. The similarities that these monsters and dragons have with dinosaurs is undeniable and coupled with the modern and ancient stories of monsters that continue to be seen in the jungles leads many to believe that one day, one of these rare creatures could be captured or killed. This 12th century Cambodian temple constructed in 1186 AD is home to a very interesting dinosaur artifact. The temple is covered with ornate designs and stone carvings on its exterior. This carving of a stegosaurus like dinosaur was found on the Temple Hall. As late as the 1800s, the deac culture of Borneo was producing artwork with dinosaurs on them. This water fountain on a Hindu temple built in the 1800s looks very similar to the triceratops. There have been several other findings like this throughout Asia, including these two 10th century AD bronze sculptures from Nepal, which bear a close resemblance to several types of serotopsid dinosaurs. European history is filled with dragon art work, sculptures and artifacts. These not only include the popular look of dragons, seen in much of the artwork, but also include many other fascinating creatures that look very similar to dinosaurs. The palestring of mosaic from around 180 has several animals depicted that appear to be extinct in prehistoric. Why would the Roman culture place prehistoric extinct creatures within their historical documents in artwork? The obvious answer is that they existed together and they recorded what they observed. Here we see a dinohias, which means terrible pig. The dinohias was supposed to have died off about 24 million years ago, and here we see several men fighting what appears to be a type of quadruped dinosaur. Found at Carlow Cathedral on the tomb of Bishop Richard Bell, who died in 1496, are these two brass engravings. Here are two dinosaur's depicted in a second century Roman inscription. The Thracians were a group of Indo-European tribes who spoke the Thracian language and thrived from 3200 BC to 500 BC. This Thracian helmet is adorned with an ornament that looks much like a centosaurus. Look at the ornament in comparison to skeletal remains and drawings. Many other ancient cultures throughout history have given us artwork, sculptures, and artifacts that point to the existence of dinosaurs and man together. Take a look at a few more of these amazing artifacts. This amazing cave drawing was found in Wepatki National Park Arizona. It is thought to be around 1,000 years old. At Bridges National Monument, Utah, the Anazazi Indians made this cave drawing several thousand years ago. This ancient cylinder seal was found in Mesopotamia. In a book by A.M. Myler, written from 1725 to 1727, recounting his travels from Rome to Jerusalem, then to Troy, Egypt, Syria, and Malta are found pictures of many things that Myler saw and drew as he traveled. This is a drawing of something seen by Myler. It appears to be some sort of flying dragon. Much more likely it was a breed of terrasaur. Indians in the American southwest and also throughout Central and South America tell stories of the Thunderbird that by description and some archaeological evidence could be a terrasaur or terradactyl. And Indian pierstics that are used to this day have the head of a terradactyl on them. This brief video touches only a small portion of the physical evidence for the existence of dinosaurs with man and at the end you will be given references if you wish to investigate further. Now that we have looked at the history, let's take a look at the present day and examine evidence for dinosaurs that could still be alive today. If there are dinosaurs that are still alive and they have always existed with man, this means that modern scientists have made some serious errors regarding their interpretation of geologic and paleologic data. It also spoils the strongly held belief that the dinosaurs were wiped out 65 million years ago when a comet hit the earth. So what really happened to the dinosaurs? This nearer and many millions of other learning people young and old alike believe the biblical story of the great flood tells their faith. The Bible says that Noah to two of every kind of animal onto the earth. If that is true, then Noah would have included young dinosaurs which were much smaller than their older adult counterpart. The environment before the flood was very different and this allowed both men and animals to live extremely long lives. All reptiles grow from the time they are born to the time they die. So a reptile that was 600 to 900 years old would have been an extremely large animal, a dinosaur. The younger dinosaurs would have been much smaller. It would have been logical for Noah to take younger animals for several reasons. They eat less, sleep more, produce less waste, and have a longer reproductive lifespan. All life on earth except for those on the arc, perished and was buried in a sedimentary rock layers that were laid down by this worldwide catastrophic flood. The vast fossil record that we see so consistently throughout the entire world today is proof of this worldwide flood. And interestingly, there are over 500 flood legends and stories from around the world. After the flood, Noah's family and the surviving animals began to repopulate the earth. Over time, the dinosaurs like many other creatures were hunted to near extinction. Many also died because of the Ice Age and extreme climate change that occurred after the flood. There would have been multiple reasons why the surviving dinosaurs would have been killed off by they were usually described as being ferocious and a minister of people. Also, they would have been hunted for food. And finally, they would have been hunted for the honor and glory of killing of ferocious creature. So where would we find very rare and nearly extinct animals, which had been nearly wiped out by man and the harsh post flood environment? It would be logical to look in places where man has difficulty reaching. The nearly impenetrable jungles and deep vast bodies of water throughout the world would be a good place to start. One of the most common dinosaurs that we find evidence for in our time is the pleziusaur or a lasmosaur, which were types of dinosaurs that lived primarily in water. It would have been much more difficult for man to hunt down this type of creature due to its ability to live almost entirely in water. Also, it is believed that these creatures, as well as many other extinct reptiles, are nocturnal like the alligator and Cayman, making them even more elusive. There are many reputable stories of people seeing or having brief encounters with water dwell and dinosaurs. Three of the most common in English-speaking countries are the Loch Ness Monster, the Lake Ogapogamonstor, and the Lake Champlain Monster. The Lake Champlain Monster, or Champ, as many call this creature, is regularly seen in the waters of Lake Champlain in upstate New York. It is likely that this is not just one creature that is being cited by multiple creatures of the same species that live in the waters of the lake. Lake Champlain is an extremely large glacial lake that is up to 400 feet deep in places. Thousands of people dating all the way back to the Abunaki Indians claim to have seen this creature. The first recorded sighting took place when Samuel D. Champlain came upon the lake in July 1609. During this expedition, the French explorer noted in his journal these words, a 20-foot serpent with a horse shaped head and a body as thick as a keg. The most famous of the champ and counters was in 1977 by a woman named Sandy Mansi and her family. She took this photo and watched the creature for more than 10 minutes. In an interview, she stated, I know that what I saw was a dinosaur. A man named Dr. James Miller from Norfolk, New York, was a sergeant in the US Air Force stationed at Platsburg Air Force Base in the summer of 1983. He and three friends were in a canoe on Lake Champlain when they saw Champ. They said, it looked like a huge serpent moving up and down, not sight to sight like a fish. It was more than 30 feet long. They watched the creature for over 15 minutes. Lake Ocanagan and a D. Maulong Lake in the South Central Interior of British Columbia is home to a creature that has been named Ogo Pogo by the local people. Archival records of Ogo Pogo's existence go back to 1872 and sightings have been reported regularly up to the present. The creature is described as being one to two feet in diameter with a length of 15 to 20 feet. The head has been described as being horse or goat-like. Early inhabitants of the area including Indians and English settlers, both had encounters with Ogo Pogo and it's recorded that armed settlers patrol the shoreline to prevent attacks from the creature. On September 16th, 1947, Ogo Pogo was watched by some 30 cards of people along an Ogo Noggan mission beach. The creature was described as having a long sinus body, 30 feet in length. Not many creatures like this have been cited by such large numbers of people at the same time. On July 17th, 1959, a group of people saw tremendous creature with a snake-like head and a blunt nose swimming some 250 feet from their motorboat on Ogo Noggan Lake. The group watched the creature for over three minutes after which it submerged. Locke miss, which is a lake in Scotland, is home to the Loch Ness monster. There have been thousands of in-water and out-of-water sightings over the past several hundred years. Some of these sightings have been very close encounters. The list of reputable people who have been eyewitnesses goes into the hundreds. It includes doctors, lawyers, scientists, farmers, clergy and many people just like you and me. These people, many of which have given sworn statements to the truth of what they have said, all say that they saw a creature that is like nothing they have ever seen before, and many say that the creature closely resembles a pleasiusaur. For a deeper look into the Loch Ness dinosaur, the website www.nessie.co.uk is about the best. They have records of hundreds of eyewitness accounts and information on the continued quest to positively identify the creature. Lake Eury has been home to a number of sightings of strange unidentified creatures. This small creature was discovered dead along the shore of Lake Eury by a taxidermist named Pete Peterson of Lake Widow, Ohio. The creature was three feet long, had four flippers, a small head and a long neck. He took the creature and mounted it, the creature appears to be an infant pleasiusaur. In 1925, this creature washed up on the coast of California. E.L. Wallace, president of the Natural History Society of British Columbia said, my examination of the monster was quite thorough. It had no teeth, its head is large, and its neck full 20 feet long. I would call it a type of pleasiusaur. Another witness, Judge WR Springer of Santa Cruz, felt the creature was from a prehistoric age. He added his observation. Evidence of two short feet or flippers and probably swim with its head high above the water. During the 1930s and 40s, such creatures were spotted many times by fishermen of Monterey's sardine fleet, with one account stating that it was witnessed by one boat's entire crew of 12 men. There have been thousands of confirmed sightings of very large, long-necked serpent-like creatures from the United States, Canada, Scotland, Russia, Norway, English Channel, Brazil, Japan, China, and Sweden. Several unidentified dead creatures of similar description have also been found. Skeptics make excuses for such sightings, but the evidence still remains. The sheer number and also the valid testimonies of people of reputable character make these sightings hard to deny. Found in the deep jungles of the African Congo is the largest swamp in the world. The Likawala swamp is 55,000 square miles in size. This should give you an idea of just how big the swamp is. The swamp is 80% unexplored. Very few civilized people venture into this swamp because of the harsh conditions. But tribes people living around the swamp say that there are several creatures that live there that are apparently living dinosaurs. When they are shown pictures of different dinosaurs, they identify without hesitation, the hepatosaur and the triceratops as creatures that they have observed in the swamp. The hepatosaur that was identified by the natives has the name Mokaly and Bende. The tribesmen say that the creature lives mostly in the shallows of the swamp and is seen in the very early morning and a dusk. Mokaly and Bende is described as being mostly nocturnal and very territorial. Natives do not like to have encounters with this vicious creature however they say that they have killed and eaten the Mokaly and Bende before. Crypto zoologist Roy Mackel has explored portions of the African swamp and has written a book called a living dinosaur. The book details the regular encounters that tribal people have with the Mokaly and Bende and the search for evidence of its existence. This creature has been seen by many people including African natives, explorers from the US and African biologist and government officials from the Republic of Congo. Unfortunately because of the harsh environment and the dense swamp, no high quality pictures have yet been taken of the creature. Around the same region of the Congo, the people tell of a creature they call Nagobu. When the natives are shown pictures of dinosaurs, they identify the creature as being very similar to the triceratops and the Storacasaurus. It is described as having six horns and is known for killing elephants with them. Across the globe in South America, a dinosaur similar to Mokaly and Bende has been seen. For over 200 years, there have been reports of people seeing large reptile creatures that look like the extinct dinosaurs of the textbooks. In 1907, Colonel Piercy Fossid of the British Army was sent to mark the boundary waters between Brazil and Peru. Colonel Fossid was an officer in the Royal Engineers and was well known as a meticulous recorder of facts. While in the muddry swamp, Colonel Fossid saw an animal he believed to be a deploticus. He also stated that stories of a creature that looks like the dinosaur deploticus were confirmed by many of the tribes East of Kale. Terradactyls flying reptiles which were thought to have gone extinct over 65 million years ago are seen in many parts of the world today and in the recent past, many legitimate reports have been recorded over the past 200 years. From San Antonio, Texas, to South America in the Amazon rainforest to the islands of Papua New Guinea, people are still seeing these winged reptiles. The creatures have various names in different places throughout the world. In Papua New Guinea, there are three known species which are called Ropans, Indava and Sekibale, and in the Congo, they are called Kongamato. These creatures are nocturnal and seldom seen during the day. This has been confirmed the world over, however, there are still a few sightings that occurred during the day. The Ropan of Papua New Guinea is seen occasionally by the native people. They say that the creature looks like a flying reptile with no feathers when shown pictures of different birds and dinosaurs. They identify the Ropan as looking very much like the Terradactyl. The people of New Guinea say that the Ropan is a meat eating flying reptile that is mostly nocturnal. It's abdomen glows as if it has some sort of bioluminous bacteria present in its intestines. In South Africa and Ethiopia, the natives describe a creature similar to the one seen in Papua New Guinea. They call the creature Kongamato. It is often seen in the jungles of South Africa. They are described as being featherless and nocturnal. One account from 1923 from Frank H. Melaland and Explore and Author states that he collected reports from natives of an aggressive flying reptile they called Kongamato. He said that the natives were occasionally tormented by these creatures and describe them as being featherless with smooth skin, having a beak full of teeth and a wingspan of between four and seven feet. When shown illustrations of Terrasource, Melaland reported, quote, every native present immediately and unhesitatingly picked out and identified it as Kongamato. Another account was given by Montana resident Nguyen Hodgkinson. Mr. Hodgkinson was in the army in 1944 and stationed in New Guinea, while out on a trek to one of the local villages, a friend, a local guide, and Mr. Hodgkinson observed a very large Terradactyl take off from the ground and fly through the air. Mr. Hodgkinson states that he knows what he saw was a Terrasource and this is a composite sketch of what he says he saw. His eyewitness story can be watched online at youtube.com. In 1971, Australian psychologist Brian Hennessy was in Papua New Guinea. He states that he and the men he was with saw a large flying creature that in his words looked prehistoric. He described the creature as having no feathers, black to dark brown in color, with a wingspan of at least six feet. He states that it also had a very long tail. There are many eyewitness accounts given by native peoples from Africa and New Guinea. But there have also been eyewitness accounts from people all over the world who have seen very large Terrasource like flying creatures. The states in the U.S. were reputable accounts have come from include Alaska, Texas, California, South Carolina, and Washington State. The San Antonio lie, a newspaper of Texas State reported on February 26th, 1976, that three local school teachers were driving to work on an isolated road to the south of the city on February 24th when they saw an enormous bird sweeping low over cars on the road. They reported that the bird had a wingspan of 15 to 20 feet and leathery wings. After the incident, the teachers all identified the creature they saw as a terredactal. Some skeptics excuse these sightings with the explanation that the witnesses were just seeing giant fruit bats. The problem with this argument is that giant fruit bats or flying foxes do not fit the descriptions given by most of the eyewitnesses. The common features look nothing like fruit bats. They include a head with a terredactal-like protrusion, very long tail, very slow wing flap compared to bats, glowing bellies, and in many cases a much larger overall body size than the giant fruit bat. The fruit bat hangs upside down and the rope and by eyewitness accounts is said to sit in an upright position when perched in trees. Also these terrasores are seen in places where giant fruit bats are not found. The examples and testimonies given here are just that. They are a brief summary of evidence that exists. At the end of this video, you will be given a list of references including books and websites where you can learn more if you wish. If you do your own research, you can come to your own conclusions and make important decisions about what you believe about the world, history, the future, and how you fit into it. So now you might be asking yourself, how can this be? This doesn't fit with what I've learned about the dinosaurs in history. The dinosaurs were supposed to have died off millions of years ago. How did they survive? Why does it even matter? The Bible gives simple, rational explanations for all these questions and in fact has answers for many questions that you might have. You ask, can the Bible be trusted? Here are some facts about the trustworthiness of the Bible. No other ancient document or book even comes close to the Bible in terms of total supporting evidence for accuracy and trustworthiness in passing down of information contained in it. There are over 24,000 ancient manuscripts of the New Testament that exist today. The Old Testament, also called the Torah, has stood the test of time as well and with the discovery of the dead sea scrolls in 1947, verified once and for all that the Old Testament has been transcribed with the amazing accuracy down through the ages. These manuscripts prove that the copyists took great care and going about their work passing along the Bible in an unchanged form. No scholar has a problem trusting Homer's Iliad, which had only 643 supporting manuscripts with the oldest copy being written 500 years after Homer actually wrote his work. There are only seven manuscripts that remain a Plato's works today. Yet no scholar has a problem trusting these seven manuscripts are authentic and trustworthy. Even though the manuscripts that remain are copies that were written over 1,000 years after Plato wrote his originals, two historians whose works are quoted as fact on a regular basis are herodotists and those cities, eight of each of their manuscripts remain and these were copies of copies that were written 1,300 years after the originals. Yet no one has a problem trusting what is written in these manuscripts. Just think 24,000 manuscripts from many different locations surviving for centuries that when compared verify that the Bible has been accurately transcribed and passed down through the ages. You might ask, are all of these accurate copies actually factual information? Did what was written in the Bible really take place? Are the people, places and events real? After all, Homer's Iliad was just a fable, what about the Bible? The renowned Jewish archaeologist Nelson Gluick once said, it may be stated categorically that no archaeological discovery has ever contributed a biblical reference. Scores of archaeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or exact detail the historical statements in the Bible. Many times critics of the Bible have pointed to supposed biblical flaws, only to have archaeology later discredit their arguments. The Bible has been validated by the discovery of literally hundreds if not thousands of verifying artifacts and archaeological discoveries. The plethora of artifacts could fill several lengthy videos. Here are a few of them. The tomb and remains of Caiaphas the High Priest were discovered by workers constructing a road just south of the old city of Jerusalem. Caiaphas was the high priest who handed Jesus over to the Romans and also persecuted the early church. He was mentioned numerous times in the New Testament and also in Josephus history called antiquities. The tomb of Caiaphas the Great mentioned in the Bible books Isaiah, Second Chronicles and Ezra was discovered in Iran outside the ancient city of Pasarade. Over 50 prominent figures mentioned in the Old Testament are known outside of the Bible from other records and 27 people from the New Testament are known from other records. Statues or drawings of the likenesses of 12 Old Testament people have been discovered including Shishak the Egyptian King who plundered the temple in the Book of First Kings. J. Who King of Israel in the Book of Second Kings, Haseo King of Iran, an enemy of Israel from the Book of First Kings, Exerxes I King of Persia who was a key character from the Book of Esther and Sorgon II King of Assyria mentioned in the Book of Second Kings. Quite a number of structures mentioned in the Bible have been discovered and excavated as well. A few of these include Nebuchadnezzar's Palace in Babylon found in present-day Iraq. The royal palace at Samaria where the Kings of Israel lived at one time. It is spoken about in First Kings. The pool of Salome in Jerusalem where Jesus healed a blind man. Never lost was Jacob's well mentioned in the Gospel of John at numerous times throughout history various churches have built over the well and were later destroyed by invading forces. At the present time the Greek Orthodox Church has built a chapel over the well with it inside. So to answer the question, is the Bible's people, places, and events trustworthy? Let me summarize with quotes from experts on the subject. Dr. Clifford Wilson, formerly director of the Australian Institute of Archaeology said, I know of no finding in archaeology that's properly confirmed which is in opposition to the scriptures. The Bible is the most accurate history textbook the world has ever seen. Sir William Ramsay, imminent archaeologist and skeptic who changed his mind about the trustworthiness of the Bible after extensive work in the Middle East said, I set out to look for truth on the borderland where Greece and Asia meet and found it there. You may press the words of Luke in a degree beyond any other historians and they stand the keenest scrutiny and the hardest treatment. And finally, William F. Albright, the world famous archaeologist who confirmed the authenticity of the Dead Sea Scrolls following their discovery said, the reader may rest assured that nothing has been found by archaeologists to disturb a reasonable faith and nothing has been discovered which can disprove a single theological doctrine. The Bible can stand for itself. Yes, the Bible can stand for itself. So now let's consider the evidence for dinosaurs in the written historical record of the Bible. First, a short background on the beginning of creation and the great flood is necessary to understand why dinosaurs and man have always lived together and why we find things under the ground like fossils, coal and oil. Genesis chapter 1 of the Bible tells about God's creation of all that exists. This was a special creation that God performed in six days of about 6,000 years ago. The Bible says that God made everything and it was good. This creation included both man and dinosaur. The earth was much different in the beginning and that it had been created perfect. Over a period of time, the first created man and woman, Adam and Eve, broke the rules that God had set up for them to obey. This caused a separation between God and man. Adam and his wife were expelled from the Garden of Eden and their once-perfect bodies became subject to death, sickness, and the harsh environment outside of the perfect garden they once inhabited. Over a period of 2000 years, the world was populated and the moral state of mankind became very wicked and the earth was filled with violence. In fact, the Bible says that there was only one righteous man left. His name was Noah. The Bible says that God came down to Noah and told him that all life in the world was going to be wiped out because of the wickedness of man. God gave Noah instructions for building a great boat to save himself and his family. God's instructions included a command that he would be charged with taking two of every kind of animal onto the earth so that after the flood, the animals and Noah's family could repopulate the world. So about 4,000 years ago, God brought a flood upon the world and destroyed all life that was on the planet except for the life that remained in the arc that God had commanded to be built. This flood covered the entire world and any land-willing life that was not in the arc was drowned in the flood and buried in the sedimentary rock layers that were laid down as the floodwater settled. This buried organic material is what produced the fossils, oil, and cold deposits that we find under the earth today. It is interesting to note that there are roughly 500 cultures that have a legend about a global worldwide flood in which only one family survived. The Bible says that after the flood both men and animals began to repopulate the earth. As this occurred and mankind spread out across the land, the animals including the dinosaurs that Noah had taken on the arc began to repopulate and migrate out as well. As described previously, the historical record is filled with stories of men hunting dragons, fiery serpents, and other large reptile-like creatures. With this background, let's look at the over 35 references that the Bible gives of dinosaurs. The Bible describes six different creatures that fit the description of what we call a dinosaur. They are dragon, flying serpent, fiery serpent, liviathan, cockatrice, and behemoth. Don't forget, the word dinosaur wasn't created until 1841 and prior to this, these were the words used to describe these ferocious animals. The references, as you will see, give the clear impression that these were mostly mighty and fierce reptile creatures that inhabited desolate places and could wreak havoc and destruction upon anyone who came into contact with them. The word dragons found 21 times in the King James Bible, here are several of the references. Psalm 4419 says, Tao has sore brokenness in the place of dragons and covered us with the shadow of death. Jeremiah 9 says, and I will make Jerusalem heaps and a den of dragons, and I will make the cities of Judah desolate without an inhabitant. Jeremiah 146 says, they snuffed up the wind like dragons. Jeremiah 4933 says, and Hazor shall be a dwelling for dragons and a desolation forever. There shall no man abide there nor any son of man dwell in it. Recorded in Jeremiah 5134, Nebuchadnezzar, the King of Babylon, Hath devoured me. Heeth crushed me. Heeth made me an empty vessel. Heeth swallowed me up like a dragon. And from Micah 1 verse 8, I will make a wailing like the dragons. There are two references to flying serpents found in the Bible. Isaiah 1429 says, for out of the Serpents root shall come forth the Cockatrice and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. And Isaiah 30 verse 6 says, the burden of beasts of the south into the land of trouble in anguish from whence come the young and old lion, the viper and the fiery flying serpent. Notice here it distinguishes between the viper which is a venomous snake and the fiery flying serpent which is some sort of fiery reptile that had the capability of flight. Five times is the fiery serpent mentioned in the scriptures. Two references are numbers 216 and due to rotomy 815. And the lords sent fiery serpents among the people and they bit the people in much people of Israel died. Who led thee through the great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents and scorpions and drowned and where there was no water. Leviathan, which is mentioned four times in the Bible, seems to be a very large and fierce creature which was probably watered dwelling. Job 41 says this about Leviathan. Ken's Thou draw out Leviathan within hook, or his tongue with a cord which let us down. None is so fierce that dares stir him up. Who can open the doors of his face? His teeth are terrible round about. His scales are his pride. Out of his mouth go burning lamps and sparks of fire leap out. Out of his nostrils go with smoke as out of a seething pot or cauldron. Upon the earth there is not his like. The King James Bible mentions the Cockatrice five times. Early English Bibles use the word cockatrice when they translated from Hebrew. The Hebrew word for cockatrice actually meant Viper or horn serpent. As with any of these rare reptile creatures, much mythology and lore developed around them over time, here is what the Bible says about the cockatrice. Rejoice not thou whole palestina because the rod of him that smoke the is broken. For out of the serpent's root shall come forth the cockatrice and his fruit shall be a fiery flying serpent. Jeremiah 8 verse 17 says, For behold I will send serpents cockatrices among you which will not be charmed. They shall bite you. Say it the Lord. And the final word that we find in the Bible that gives reference to the dinosaurs is behemoth. behemoth is mentioned only once in the Bible in the book of Job which was written about 3,500 years ago. The description that it gives is very detailed and when compared to known animals reveals some interesting results. The book of Job is about a good and just man who lost everything including his family, his health and all his possessions. Just about the only thing he had left was his life. In the process of contemplating all that it happened to him and being somewhat troubled about his situation, he questions God about his purposes in dealing with Job. God replies to Job and in part of his reply we find this fascinating statement. Behold now behemoth which I made with thee. He eateth grass as an ox. The Hebrew word behemoth means large quadruped. So this is a very large four-legged animal that eats grass like an ox. The passage continues. Low now his strength is in his loins and his force is in the naval of his belly. This creature is extremely strong and it has a large belly. Some scholars say this creature is an elephant or a hippopotamus because of the above descriptions. Let's take a closer look. An elephant has a big belly. A hippopotamus has a big belly. But the class of dinosaurs called Soura Pods have the biggest bellies of all. The passage continues. He moveeth his tail like a cedar. The sinues of his stones are wrapped together. Many Bible translations say he moveeth his tail like a cedar. The sinues of his thighs are tightly knit together. Now compare. Is this like a cedar? What about this? Nope not even close. No other animal around today has a tail like a cedar tree. This most likely was the creature that God was referring to in his encounter with Joe. Now that's like a cedar. Here's the rest of the passage. His bones are as strong as brass. His bones are like bars of iron. He is the chief of the ways of God. He that made him can make his sword to approach unto him. This sounds like a very big, very tough creature which was the chief of all God's creatures. So here we are back to this guy. The elephant in the hippo don't even come close to being the chief of God's creatures. Reading on it says, surely the mountains bring him for food. Where all the beasts of the field play, he lieeth under the shady trees in the covert of the read and fins. The shady trees cover him with their shadow. The willows of the brook compass him about. It sounds like he lives in the swamps, which are fins. Behold, he drinketh up a river and hasteneth not. He trusteth that he can draw up the Jordan into his mouth. So here we have an extremely large animal that eats grass like an ox has a huge tail that looks like a cedar tree. Lizz in the swamps and is so big that it can take up massive amounts of water in its mouth. There is no other animal that fits all the descriptions given here other than a dinosaur like the deploticus or brachia sores. In this video you've been shown a portion of the historical, archaeological and biblical evidence that dinosaurs have always existed with man. There are many questions you may have. The answers to our questions are out there. We just need to open our eyes and go find them. Now the Bible says that Noah built an arc for the saving of his family from the judgment to come. Noah believed what God said about the coming flood and built the ark. The judgment came and as a result of man's violence and wickedness, everything was destroyed except for those in the ark. There is another judgment coming. The Bible says it is appointed into a man once to die but after this the judgment. In the book of Revelation chapter 20 we find a description of what the judgment of all mankind will be like. And I saw a great white throne and him that sat on it from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away and there was found no place for them and I saw the dead small and great stand before God and the books were opened and another book was opened which is the book of life and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books according to their works and death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death and whoever's name was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. Do you know if your name is written in the book of life? Let's find out. The 10 commandments are part of the standard for which mankind will be judged at the last judgment. Let's examine them for a moment. thou shall not kill. Have you ever killed anyone? No? Have you ever hated anyone? Did you know that the Bible says anyone who hates his brother is a murderer and you know that no murderer has eternal life in him? What about this one? thou shall not commit adultery. Jesus even made this one harder when he said, you have heard the command, thou shall not commit adultery, but I say unto you that who, so ever looks on a woman in lust, has committed adultery with her already in his heart? What about thou shall not bear false witness against thy neighbor? That means don't lie. Have you ever told a lie? Even a little white lie? Here's another. thou shall not steal. Have you ever still in anything? Here are the other six commands. thou shall have no other gods before me. Do you put things before God? Thou shall not make unto the any graven image. A graven image is anything that you put before the true God. Do you have idols or serve other things like money, sports, or TV? thou shall not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain. Have you ever used the name of God as a swear word to express disgust or anger? Remember the Sabbath day to keep it holy. Have you kept a day set apart for God? Honor thy father and mother. Do you know anyone who's done this perfectly? thou shall not covet. Covent means that you jealously want something that belongs to someone else. If God uses the tin commandments from the Bible to judge you and me and every person on the planet, we will be guilty and our names will not be written in the Book of Life and at the last judgment, we all will be thrown into the lake of fire. The Bible says, for all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. It also says, for the wages of sin is death. In the Book of Isaiah, it says that we all have gone our own way and we are sinners. No one's perfect and because of that, we all are guilty and will be judged as sinners and unable to have our names written in the Book of Life. But wait, there's hope. Just as God gave Noah a way to be saved from the judgment of the flood. So also God has provided an arch of refuge for us to flee to for the day of judgment. The Bible for told the coming of a Savior, which would save mankind from the judgment from sin that we all rightly deserve. Thousands of years in advance, God spoke through his prophets. He told them that he would send a Savior and that this Savior would suffer, die, and pay the penalty for sin that we deserve. Then after suffering and dying for our sins, he would rise from the dead. That Savior is Jesus Christ the Lord. He was perfect in every way and yet mankind killed him. Jesus did what Noah and else could do when he died for you and me. He paid the price for our sins so that we can have our names written in the Book of Life. Jesus said, I am the way, the truth, and the life, no man come unto the Father, but by me. For God so love the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that who so ever believe it in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. There it is. Let me repeat it. For God so love the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that who so ever believe it in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. The key to getting your name written in the Book of Life, you must believe. Now that we're believed can be a bit tricky, so let me explain. Believing in something is not merely knowing in your mind that something is true. No, true believing is something that changes who you are. If you believe in Jesus, it changes the way you live. To believe in Jesus means that you know in your mind that he died for your sins, and then you turn away from your sins and turn to Him in love. Many times in the Bible, we find Jesus encouraging us to believe. He said, I am the resurrection in the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies. Jesus also said, I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness. The Bible also says, everyone who believes in Jesus receives forgiveness of sins through his name. This is good news. We all who are once lost and on our way to the lake of fire can now have eternal life by believing in Jesus Christ the Savior. Repent today, believe that Jesus Christ died for your sins, that He was buried and rose from the dead. If you do this, the Bible says that you become a new creation, something different than what you were. It also says that the Holy Spirit from God fills you and your name is written in the Book of Life. Just as Noah was spared from the flood of judgment, brought upon the world by heating God's Word and going into the Ark. So you and I can be spared from the judgment that is to come upon every man by seeking refuge in Jesus Christ. Now is the day of salvation, repent and believe.
