Ron Wyatt Discoveries

[Matthew6:33]

I was doing some study on Bible archaeology and I came across a video about a guy named Ron Wyatt who made a bunch of discoveries years ago. Like the Red Sea crossing, Mount Sinai and Noah's ark. Some seemed a bit far fetched like the Ark of the Covenant but the evidence he found make me want to know more. I know he was a 7th Day Adventist and I don't agree with that theology but the stories of the discoveries were interesting. What makes it more interesting is that all his work back then was buried by governments and secular archaeologists. Anyone know anything about this guy and these discoveries? Is it bogus?

Brother, just do a search for Ron Wyatt and legitimacy. Apparently he is not actually a trained archaeologist (by profession he was a nurse anesthetist), has never done a legitimate licensed dig in the Holy Land, and apparently none of his "discoveries" has ever been confirmed. That information from Christian creationist sites, not secular ones. If his many archeological findings were indeed legitimate, he would be the most famous archeologist of all time.

I always wondered why he felt he discovered Noah's Ark but not because I do or don't believe it is. I'm thinking others outside of that area visited it well before him. Possibly even decades before. Then there's the locals that "discovered" it, if that's the word for legend passed down and them visiting for themselves and believing. Wyatt's blood of Christ trickling down to the Ark of the Covenant doesn't seem plausible/likely to me. I do like the things he vetted about Mt Sinai including the split rock, but again feel others were there first. I'm still unsure if he truly proved chariot wheels and bones of Egyptians and horses and such at the Red Sea crossing, but I do believe the actual crossing should have things like that all over the area underwater. I liked his book way back but read it open minded and yet still skeptical.

Also, I think he was at Sodom and Gomorrah and that does seem valid, but was he "first" to discover it?
