‘The Lost River of Eden’ (2015)

This is one of my all-time most popular posts. It’s easy to see why.

The Lost River of Eden

Once upon a time–as recorded in the Book of Genesis, and nowhere else–a mighty river ran across Arabia to flow into the sea when it reached Kuwait. The remains of the river, buried under desert sands for at least 40 centuries (geologists’ best guess) could not be seen until photo-taking satellites came into use.

Yes, we can trust the Bible.

Unless we don’t want to trust our scientific instruments which confirm what the Bible has told us.

This has been one of our most popular posts over the years, and well it should be. The rediscovery of the long-lost Kuwait River is powerful evidence that the Bible’s record is true.

The Lost River of Eden

College left my own faith kind of iffy. But the Kuwait River dried up and was buried in the sands of Arabia at least 2,000 years (and maybe more) before the first books of the Bible were written down… according to Reputable Bible Scholars Inc. The traces of the river were undetectable until modern aerial photographic analysis became available.

So what was an accurate description of it doing in the Book of Genesis?

They can’t wriggle out of that one.

I like to re-run this post from time to time–because it’s one of the most popular posts I’ve had here, and because the rediscovery of the Kuwait River played an important part in restoring my own faith.

The Lost River of Eden

The Kuwait River disappeared no later than 2,000 B.C.–and yet there it is in Genesis. It wasn’t until satellite photography became available that science rediscovered this once-mighty river.

The Bible authentically preserves knowledge that would otherwise be lost. It is not a bunch of stories made up by Jewish priests to wile away their time as exiles in Babylon.

The Bible is true. Period.
