A common challenge is how do dinosaurs fit into the Bible.
The best evidence is the Bible. God created man and land animals (which included dinosaurs) on day 6 of His creation. This means dinosaurs and people lived at the same time.
Additional evidences include:
- Dinosaur soft tissue still with the bones
- Unfossilized dinosaur bones
- Proteins found with the bones
- Red blood cells found with the bones
- DNA fragments found in the bones (which should last a maximum of about 10,000 years)
- Carbon-14 in the bones (should last a max of about 100,000 years)
In Job 40 there is a good description of a dinosaur called behemoth. It is described as:
- Having large bones and a large tail like a cedar tree.
- This is not an alligator
- It is not a description of an elephant or a hippopotamus
- The description resembles that of a dinosaur.
