The World That Perished by John C Whitcomb

The World That Perished by John C Whitcomb

The World that Perished, a forceful sequel to The Genesis Flood and companion to The Early Earth, radiates an unshakeable faith in the authority of the Word of God. Whitcomb maintains with vigor that the Bible declares and affirms a supernatural, catastrophic flood of worldwide proportions, a declaration corroborated by scientific observations that are not warped by a uniformitarian bias in geology. This revised edition includes more than 30 major revisions from the original, including illustrations, photos, and charts.
