Dinosaurs were real creatures that have lived along
with mankind, but have been hunted to extinction - some few remaining dinosaurs
may still exist in either the ocean or on the continent of Africa.
Their existence. According to the Bible, Dinosaurs did exist on
this earth. The first type of dinosaur is referred to as Behemoth (Job 40:15-24)
and was a land-based animal that would match a Brontosaurus. The other dinosaur
is referred to as Leviathan (Job 41:1-34). It was a water-based animal. It is
probably the basis for all the legends about dragons. All the bones
that "scientists" have unearthed and attached together to represent
animals, were alive mainly before Noah's flood (only 5,000 years ago). Remember,
all of them became extinct at the same time pointing to a cataclysmic
event.
Their demise. The cataclysmic event was the flood of Genesis
chapters 7 - 9 where water covered the earth (Gen 7:19) killing every breathing
thing that was not on the ark. At the end of the flood, all the water was drawn
into the polar regions and frozen! That explains the Ice
Age, and all the fresh water contained in the polar caps!
