Ecclesiastes and Geography

"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." Ecclesiastes 1:7

Did you know that Science has proven the Bible? It’s not talked about to much but it is true. The author of Ecclesiastes talks about rivers returning to its source. This is actually what science has discovered and called the hydrologic cycle. We may have been taught it in elementary school or even at Geography class. It talks about rain falling in the earth forming streams and rivers which eventually empty out into a lake or ocean. Here the sun heat causes it to evaporate and once it evaporates, it takes on the form of clouds which becomes so saturated that they eventually rain down on the earth. This rain becomes the source of water for rivers which empty into lakes and again and the cylce continues.
Well this cycle is mentioned in the Bible in Ecclesiastes. Did you know? During the modern age, we were convinced that science was the ansrew and that faith is useless including faith in God's Word. Christians have put there faith in the Word of God as truth for centuries and here's an example of Science actually proving it.
