Earth's Magnetic Shield Is Vanishing

How old is the earth? Billions of years or just thousands of years?

In the StarTrek series the starship Enterprise had invisible shields to protect it. The earth has a real invisible shield, our magnetic field, that protects us from intense, harmful radiation from the sun. Without it, life on earth could not exist. But earth's magnetic field is decreasing, wearing down so quickly that we know the earth could not be more than 20,000 years old.

Where Does Our Magnetic Field Come From?

The iron core of the earth creates a magnetic field. This magnetic field must be strong enough to deflect radiation from the sun, but not too strong. Analysis of the magnetic field, and it's rate of decline, shows that the earth cannot be more than 20,000 years old. That's a maximum number that is consistent with the Biblical time scale of the earth being created 6,000 years ago.

THE GOSPEL
OF JESUS CHRIST

good news of the cross


The gospel is not social justice nor serving others. The gospel is love in action... Jesus Christ giving Himself so that you can be saved from the wrath of God.

Now I make known to you, brethren, the gospel which I preached to you, which also you received, in which also you stand, by which also you are saved, if you hold fast the word which I preached to you, unless you believed in vain.

For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received, that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He was raised on the third day according to the Scriptures, and that He appeared to Cephas, then to the twelve.

After that He appeared to more than five hundred brethren at one time, most of whom remain until now, but some have fallen asleep; then He appeared to James, then to all the apostles; and last of all, as to one untimely born, He appeared to me also.
