Welcome to Apologetics with Carl Kerby!
Did dinosaurs go into the Ark?
The only way to know for sure would be to have a trustworthy witness who was there, saw what happened, and accurately recorded it for us. Man, I wish we had something like that … it sure would make things so much easier.
Hold up, we do! Christian, think about it like this. God is the only one who’s always been there, who knows WHAT and HOW it happened, AND He also had this history recorded for us in a book called the Bible so we can KNOW the truth. So, what does the Bible have to say about this commonly asked question especially when trying to ridicule Christians?
The short answer is: “YES!” Genesis 6:20 tells us that Noah took 2 of every land-dwelling, air-breathing animal onto the ark. Guess what dinosaur’s were? That’s right, land-dwelling, air-breathing animals. So therefore, they went onto the ark.
But, as skeptic Michael Shermer loves to ask, “How’d they fit 10 billion species of animals on a wooden boat?” Well, that’s for next time.
