 Christian Author and Pastor Ron Craig Although there are still other variations of the foregoing idiotic speculations, there is only one plausible view of the subject at hand—Bible Truth about God’s involvement in the world’s affairs—what the Bible actually says about it. Remember, God created man to have dominion over all of the lower earthly creatures; including this terrestrial ball itself. Then, God found the righteous Noah (Genesis 7:1), and commanded him to build a boat that would float, in order to preserve a remnant of the human population during a worldwide flood. Later, God found still another righteous man, Abraham, and made a covenant with him, promising him and his Seed they would inherit this planet.
