@kingdavid403 saidThe bible gives a very clear description of the ark's size and it's shape. It did not have a pointed bow or stern. It was not designed to go from one location to another. It was only built to float.
I just watched this scientific video, again, link below; where they claim to have discovered Noah's Ark. Everything fits according to God's Holy Word the Bible; and, the Muslim Koran. Thoughts anyone after watching this shortened video?

-Removed-As I stated before, I have no supporting evidence. Just my belief. I believe that there are many things that supposed Biblical scholars have wrong in their man-made interpretations and Biblical timelines. They certainly don't match up with our current knowledge of science and history of the earth and people.
@galveston75 saidCan you show us in the Bible where it says that the Ark did not have a bow or stern? Or where it says it was only made to float? And, I never said that it was not made to only float.

So, did Noah make a square floating ship? What shape does the Bible say it was made in? We know how long and wide it is etc. Sounds like a large ship to me; and, I would think it would have some kind of sails etc. I don't know for-sure tho. You? Please share scriptures?
-Removed-I never said millions of years. There's a lot of space between six thousand years and millions of years. If anything is millions of years old on this earth, that right there shows you that today's Biblical scholars are wrong in their Biblical timelines. Correct? So you're saying you don't believe the video to be true, or that they didn't actually find the remains of Noah's Ark?
Just asking; it could be a hoax. I don't know for-sure.
@kingdavid403 saidSo if it had sails or rudder or a pointed bow, where was Noah going to sail it too? Which port? Does the description in the bible describe an upper deck of any kind to look out to see where to stear the ark? Did he have maps too look for land? Did he know where land would be?

No he didn't that is why he sent the bird out to see if any had appeared. Once the bird came back does the bible mention he turned the ark to sail it there? No.
Matt 6:14. "Make for yourself an ark from resinous wood. You will make compartments in the ark and cover it with tar inside and outside. 15 This is how you will make it: The ark should be 300 cubits long, 50 cubits wide, and 30 cubits high. 16 You will make a window for light for the ark, one cubit from the top. You should put the entrance of the ark in its side and make it with a lower deck, a second deck, and a third deck."
No where in the bible did god say to build a boat. An ark shaped item by definition does not have a pointed ends.
@kingdavid403 saidI world think it is mostly the non-scholarly that still believe the earth is only 6000 years old.

@galveston75 saidSo then, you do not think it's Noah's Ark. I'm not arguing for against, if it is, or is not. You may be correct. As far as the sails, anyone that's spent anytime boating or sailing etc; knows that one must either go into the wind, or directly follow the wind. Something this shape and size would capsize in any storm or heavy wind if it was just floating around. And, the Bible says nothing of no bow or stern; just length, width, and height.

@kingdavid403 saidAnd Jonah? (100% belief remember)
I believe 100% what the Bible says of Noah, or anyone or anything else that it tells us. And, I believe there is so much more that we do not know. You?
