NW Creation Network | Old Testament Archaeology: Part 2B - Aligning Key Events @nwcreationnetwork | Uploaded 4 months ago | Updated 2 days ago
The Old Testament of the Bible contains rich and interesting stories of God's people that span more than 4000 years. However, this important historic record is under attack by Archaeologists who have claimed that the Biblical account of history is inaccurate or even fictitious. Well known events, such as the conquest of Jericho and the Exodus of the Israelites from Egypt, have been challenged on archaeological grounds.
This multimedia presentation examines these challenges and shows that when the evidence is revealed, science supports the historicity of the Bible. We will review several well-known Biblical events and figures that can now be substantiated by recent archaeological investigations and see that the Bible is a trustworthy in all things.
Outline:
Part B - Aligning Key Events
Joseph as Viceroy of Egypt
Waterway of Joseph (Bahr Youseff)
Oppression of Israelite Slaves
Moses and the Exodus
See Also:
Part A - Introduction to Biblical / Egyptian Synchrony
The Biblical Origin of Egypt
Problems and Solutions with Egyptian Chronology
See Also:
Part C - Jericho (Tell es-Sultan)
Formidable Fortifications
Archaeology Confirms Biblical Jericho
Multimedia Presentation by Chris Ashcraft at the Apologetics Symposium, Cedar Park Church, Bothell WA. May 8th, 2024.
About the Teacher:
Chris Ashcraft is a Christian educator employed as high school science teacher at Cedar Park Christian Schools. Chris has also worked in plant biotechnology. He was a research technician at the Cotton Fiber Production Laboratory at Texas Tech University, then at the Plant Transformation Facility at Oklahoma State University, and lastly was the Plant Transformation Specialist for EDEN Bioscience in Bothell Washington.
He obtained a Bachelor of Science in biology from Wayland Baptist University in 1989, a Master of Science in biology from Texas Tech University in 1996, a Master of Education from the University of Washington in 2008, and a Master is Teaching Math and Science from Seattle Pacific University in 2012.
Chris moved from research science into the teaching profession to serve God in Christian education. His decision was motivated by the impact that secular science is having on people of faith. Today, close to 50% of Christian students lose their belief in God while attending secular schools. This tendency could be lessened if the Church was better equipped to defend the authority of Biblical teachings (1 Peter 3:15). To be prepared for these challenges, it is important that Churches provide regular educational programs on creation and other Bible apologetics.
