"Noah's Flood Revisited" by Hugh Ross - Why it Fails

About this episode

The episode critiques Hugh Ross's book 'Noah's Flood Revisited', highlighting its shortcomings in the context of Christian apologetics.

Last year, Hugh Ross ( Reasons to Believe ) replied to a comment we left on X (formerly Twitter). Our comment asked if he had seen some aspects of Dr. Aardsma's work. Ross replied, "I have just completed a book on Noah's Flood and have responded to Aardsma's claims." The book Ross referenced became available in October. This month we critique Noah's Flood Revisited (new depths of insight from science and Scripture) . We discuss several aspects of this new book by an old-earth creationist, pointing out where it falls critically short—false fronts, fuzzy facts, failing to follow through, and an ultimate fatal flaw. This is important because, as Christians, we must be actively advancing the cause of truth, not just giving some reasons to hold to our faith. We must stop treading water in Christian apologetics, and begin to take ground with data, scientific investigation, research results, and specific dates that show these events in real-world history.
