Introduction

In the past centuries, many new discoveries were made in natural history, geology, and other sciences; however, in some cases the findings became very complex in nature and this situation overwhelmed the discerning insight. Consequently, the interpretations of these discoveries brought certain divisions among scholars because the conclusions did not always fit in with the accepted religious or scientific viewpoints.

One of the most controversial subjects that created numerous discourses among scholars was the universal flood narrative in the Holy Bible. The 40 days of rain, the depths of the deluge waters, the universality of these events are some of the descriptions that make this account impossible to comprehend. For this reason, the flood narrative became the subject of various conclusions with concepts that did not justify the biblical account. The problem lies in the fact that the causes and effects about the universal flood are missing, and only through God's revelation could such vast unknown circumstances be brought to a reasonable understanding.

In view of mankind's constant endeavor in seeking the truth, it seems appropriate to reflect on these words from scripture:

Matt. 10:26 "Therefore fear them not: for there is nothing hid, that shall not be revealed; nor secret that shall not be known."

In 1967, I had a most unusual religious experience. Early one Saturday morning of that year as I was reclining in bed and mentally planning the day ahead, a vision appeared to me. I suddenly saw an enormous mass in the southern expanse of the heavens coming towards the earth with great menacing velocity. The scene was so shocking that my reflexes threw my entire body up about a foot from my resting position. I then heard the voice of God the Father say:

This forceful statement was for me in many ways a sudden religious and scientific revelation. In a general way, I always had an interest in theology, history, and related sciences; therefore, this unusual revelation inspired me to intensify my understanding and become more familiar with the present discoveries and teachings about the earth. During the many years of research I became thoroughly convinced, since I now had the key to the origins of the universal flood, that many accepted theories, such as the million year ice age and its formation of the Great Lakes, are not accurate and will have to be redefined.

The following presentation is my interpretation of the causes - the result of the Lord's revelation and my research. All of my conclusions herein have been scrutinized and carefully weighed for their validity and backed up by existing visual evidence that brings this flood event to a sound understanding and reality.
