The Non-believing Scientists
Lets visit the non-believing scientists with just one Scripture verse.
Everything beginning with "G" is the non-believing scientist speaking through Google. Everything beginning with "P" that's me. Let's go pay a visit. We taking Solomon with us.
Ecclesiastes 1:7 KJVS All the rivers run into the sea; yet the sea is not full; unto the place from whence the rivers come, thither they return again.
P: How does this happen? Is it through evaporation?
G: Yes, Ecclesiastes 1:7 is widely interpreted as an early observation of the hydrological cycle—specifically, evaporation. The verse reads: "All the rivers run into the sea, yet the sea is not full; to the place from which the rivers come, there they return again." - Google.
G: How the Process in Ecclesiastes 1:7 Works
G: The passage describes a continuous, circular motion of water designed by nature, which operates through several key stages:
P: Designed by God, it is not written in the book of nature, it is written in the Book of God, the Bible. It seems like they really hate God, doesn't it?
G: The Inflow: Rivers carry water into the sea.
P: We got that.
G:The Problem: Despite this constant influx, the sea does not overflow (it is "not full").
P: The expected or potential problem never arise because of Him who gives the revelation. Scripture tells us that it is Jesus (God) who upholdeth all things by the power of His Word, His command.
G: The Solution (Evaporation): The heat of the sun and wind cause water to evaporate from the sea's surface, turning liquid into vapor, which rises.
P: Hence the hydrological cycle. OK!
G: The Return (Condensation/Precipitation): This vapor forms clouds, which then transport the water back to the sources of the rivers (mountains/uplands) to fall again as rain or snow.
P: What is your conclusion Mr. Scientist?
Contextual Interpretation
Scientific Observation: While not a modern technical description, it accurately observes the natural, ceaseless cycle of evaporation and rain.
P: "It accurately observes the natural, ceaseless cycle of evaporation and rain." He has no logical reason to say the Bible is wrong.
General conclusion
In short, the verse describes a self-sustaining cycle where the water returns to its source via evaporation and precipitation, ensuring the sea never overflows.
Here is what we are told when I asked the following question.
Would human life be possible on earth if there were no hydrological cycle?
No, humans could not survive on Earth if the hydrological cycle ceased, as it is essential for distributing freshwater, regulating temperature, and supporting all life. Without this recycling process, all water would eventually evaporate or freeze, leading to massive droughts, immediate plant death, the total disappearance of ecosystems, and rapid extinction for humans.
P: What genius believe this was an accidental happening, that somehow nature is intelligent enough to perform such a continual act that makes life on earth for human possible.
