SHIPWRECKED!...ON MALTA

Everyone was saved!

G'day L......,

So you would like to know another random fact, hey?
Okay...at the end of the book of Acts of the Apostles we find that the apostle Paul was being taken as prisoner to Rome in a grain ship from Alexandria, Egypt.
During a cyclone they shipwrecked on a reef outside a bay on the coast of Malta. They had cut loose 4 anchors that had been lowered into 15 fathoms (27 metres) of water and 2 more anchors were lost with the ship's skiff.
Guess what!? During the last 50 years, about 6 lead anchor stocks with ancient Egyptian inscriptians have been recovered by fishermen from St. Thomas Bay in Malta - 4 of these were in 15 fathoms, outside Muxnar Reef. It seems that they had lain there for nearly 2000 years, waiting to prove that this story in the Bible is factual.....(well of course!).

Hi J...,



The 12 constellations of the Zodiac (Mazzaroth)

Q "How does the birth symbols in the sky mean something important."
When God put the sun, moon and stars in the sky, He did say that they were for signs and seasons. People think it is important which month they were born in but horoscopes are out by a month anyway....and what does the Bible say?
The apostle Paul quoted King David saying: "Their line has gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world." What words? The gospel about the Lord Jesus! How?....what line? God asked Job: "Can you bring out Mazzaroth (Zodiac) in its season?" 
The Zodiac is the line of 12 constellations that the sun passes along, seen all over the world....
Virgo                 Mary was a virgin - or 'virgo' in Latin Bibles.
Libra(scales)     God's justice demands blood must be shed.
Scorpio              ...bites Hercules' heel. Jesus was put to death....
Sagittarius         ...but His death will be avenged.
Capricornus      The goat dies but its fish tail is very alive.
Aquarius           Jesus gives living water of eternal life
Pisces(fish)       The 'catch' will be huge but so will the persecution 
Aries(ram)         Jesus is 'the Lamb of God' sacrificed
Taurus(bull)      Judgement is around the corner
Gemini(twins)   Jesus is both Saviour and Lord
Cancer(crab)    The stars in Cancer refer to donkeys safely home!
Leo(lion)           Jesus is 'the Lion of the Tribe of Judah' - the King of kings and the Lord of lords!
Can you see any link?


Hello H.....,
Q "Why should the animals be slaughtered to get rid of bad sin, when they are just doing another bad sin by killing them?"
People were not permitted by God to slaughter animals for food until after the Great Flood. When we eat meat it means that an animal will not have to die in agony of old age because it has been slaughtered quickly and humanly but also it should be a reminder to us of when God in judgment flooded the Earth because of its violence and wickedness.
This seems all very weird to our culture but the Bible tells us: "without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness."  By sacrificing my best animal I showed God that I am a sinner in need of His mercy while He deserves only the best.
Cultures all over the world understood this but it quickly became perverted with human sacrifice and false gods, which is why He ordered the extermination of some people.
The Bible tells us that Jesus "has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself"...."He was offered once to bear the sins of many"...."He offered one sacrifice for sins forever".
There is no more sacrifice of animals required for sin.

Hi there H.....,

Q "How can you tell that whatever people wrote in the Bible is true and not a theory or just fiction?"
Fair enough!...let's look at outside evidence to check against the Bible.
- Several other historic records confirm that Jesus was a real person alive at that time in history. e.g. Flavius Josephus' book.
- Despite what some people say, scientific research confirms what the Bible claims e.g. the water cycle, air has weight, oceans have currents, Earth is a sphere suspended on nothing, light can be separated, dinosaurs really existed, and lots more...
- The Jews have not only survived but their nation is back on the map, with oil & gas discovered under their territorial waters, just as Moses predicted before he died.
- Hundreds of archaeological finds have been found that match what the Bible claims e.g. the lost city of Ur where Abraham grew up.
- The ultimate test is history because nobody can change that.
Hundreds of Jewish prophecies in the Bible came true exactly! e.g. The Babylonian were defeated by the Persians who were defeated by the Greeks who were defeated by the Romans, whose empire would fragment then revive as the European Union in our lifetime.


Hi A.......,
Q "Where did the cave man come from?"
1656 years after Adam and Eve were created there was a global flood that I understand would have caused an Ice Age on Earth. About 200 years later God decided to separate people at the Tower of Babel into 70 nations around the world and confuse their languages, which is very obvious today.

Not so primitive?

Imagine if your family suddenly found themselves in strange country, surrounded by wild animals and freezing weather, and possibly lacking building skills and materials - where would you make your home? 
A cave of course!
The Neanderthal Man has been found to be not as primitive as we first thought - living with basics just like we do on a holiday camp.
