Giants!?

October 28, 2021 By Dr. Don Bierle

By Dr. Don Bierle, FaithSearch President

Wouldn’t a football coach love to have Goliath as his fullback? Any coach could easily put together a championship basketball team made up of Amorites. The Nephilim would make great security guards. Why? The Bible says that all these were giants! Is there any truth to that?

This photo from 1902 shows the fossilized skeleton of Archelon, the extinct giant turtle (public domain). 

Those who don’t believe in the inspiration of Scripture are likely to consider this claim as a legend which evolved over time. For example, a recent article on giant claims in Biblical Archaeology Review suggested that any large bones that have been found likely belonged to some large animal (like an elephant) but were mistakenly identified by non-scientists as belonging to giant humans referred to in mythology (see “Encounters…” source). They suggested that the idea of giant humans roaming the earth is a “fantastic tale.”

What a Bathtub!

Lake Superior contains 10% of the earth’s fresh surface water. If spread out, the water would cover all of North and South America in one foot of water.

What a Creator!

October 28, 2021 By fsisocialmedia

Many people are aware that opposable thumbs are a special characteristic of mammals, especially primates. So imagine the surprise when scientists unearthed a pterosaur (reptile) in northeast China with opposable thumbs. This would enable it to climb trees, hunt for bugs, and do other activities typical of monkeys. They called it a Monkeydactyl.

2021 October: Moscow, Samara, St. Petersburg

October 14, 2021 By Dr. Oleg Voskresensky, Teacher

A major cancellation of the whole city-segment of my trip arrived on a very short notice. I was not going to Nizhniy Novgorod because three things happened on the same week: the local university dean passed away; the provost of the seminary resigned; and my host/facilitator got stuck 2,000 miles away on a family vacation with a broken car. Once again, I was reminded that in Russia your arrangements and schedules only hold as long as the people you set them up with.

  • Presenting at a small town church
  • Just arrived to the town of Podporozhye

Three extra days in St. Petersburg were not too difficult to fill thanks to the local ministry partners and, because most of the schools were open for in-person classes. An International Academy with students from fifteen different countries allowed me to teach a lesson on the Validity of the Bible in their IT department’s graphic design class. After a great discussion on the subject matter we had in class, each of them will also have to develop their own design of the PowerPoint® presentation of the topic. I am looking forward to applying some of their ideas in my future events!

  • Making plans for future events in Kolomna
  • International Academy class in IT graphic design

As always, the last days of the trip were most intense in teaching and travel. I had to literally run from one to another of my teachers’ conferences in different ends of Samara and in St. Petersburg. I was truly blessed by their interest in and in their response to the material, which keeps arriving to me in their E-mails and their facilitators’ feedback. Nearly one third of my next trip to Russia is already filled with follow-up events in and around the cities I taught in this time.

What People Are Saying…

FaithSearch Discovery

I appreciated the historical references to the validity of the Scripture.  I am a chemist and always appreciate hearing the testamony of other scientists.  I found the more deeply I got into my science studies, the more implausible the secular arguments of evolution and absence of God became.  Ultimately, I too had to surrender my ...
