Creatures Lived Longer Before the Flood! | The Creation Podcast: Episode 117

About this episode

The episode discusses how creatures lived longer before the Flood, supported by biblical references and fossil evidence.

Imagine a world where humans lived for centuries…Animals grew gradually, matured over decades, and lived far longer than anything we see today. According to the Bible, this wasn’t unusual or supernatural, it was simply the way life worked before the Flood. What’s remarkable is that clues to this long-lost world may still be preserved today, not just in Scripture, but in fossils. Fossilized bones are revealing growth patterns that point to longer lifespans in birds, dinosaurs and other creatures that once inhabited the earth.
