Geology – The study of the origin, history, and structure of the earth.
Just The Rocks: Part 2.
The right way usually lies between two extremes: it is the narrow channel between the rock and the whirlpool. (Charles Spurgeon)
As I began the process of researching, writing and putting together SURTSGeology, I realized that there were quite a few bible verses that someway…somehow…mentions directly or indirectly, items that qualify under the scientific study of geology.
SURTSGeology will be divided up into 3 sections:
Just The Rocks: Part 2.
For this section of SURTSGeology…Geology: Just The Rocks: Part 2, I would ask that you consider the following…
For a book that is not intended to be a book on science, let alone geology, it is quite amazing, not only on the amount of science that is in there, but the validity of the references regarding geology, that are in there.
Based on the evidence presented, I would submit to you there is absolutely nowhere in the Bible where the hydrology topics are unfounded. I would also submit to you that there is nowhere in the Bible where any scientific discovery since the Bible was put together, has yet to be proven false, regarding geology.
What is truly amazing is the fact that many of the facts above were already in the Bible before man and his science…and geology, ‘discovered’ them. In multiple cases, by hundreds or thousands of years.
What other religious book has this record?
The point is this:
While the Holy Bible is of course a religious book first and foremost, clearly, it is much more than that.

13 sets of bible verses found in Just The Rocks: Part 2, whose focus can be considered under the scientific branch of geology.
If one of these verses is read independently, then it is possible to assume the reader may not come to this conclusion:
While the Holy Bible is of course a religious themed book first and foremost, clearly, it is much more than that.
I would submit to you that in regards to the Holy Bible and the scientific field of geology…
The reliability is more than coincidence.
