No other ship in the history of ocean travel has demanded as much
interest as the Titanic.
Volumes of books and reels of film have been produced regarding the
most infamous shipwreck in history. We have attempted to provide here a
brief introduction to some of the more fascinating facts, legends and
myths regarding the sinking of the ship that was labeled 'unsinkable'
before her disastrous maiden voyage in April of 1912.
April 15, 1912, The Sinking of the Titanic - When the Titanic
embarked on her maiden voyage the world was filled with hope and awe. In
just a few short days those emotions turned to horror and grief. The luxury liner struck an iceberg and sank. Even though they had enough lifeboats for about half of the people on board, many refused to get into them, hoping the giant ship would stay afloat.
Did you know...
...the largest lifeboat ever built took 120 years to construct? It was three stories high and had as much space as about 520 railroad cars! What's even more amazing is that only eight people choose to get on this lifeboat to save their lives... just eight people, along with thousands of animals! That lifeboat of course, was Noah's Ark!
...the lifeboat he built was the only way to be saved. God made a way of salvation for His people, and His angels protected the ark.
...the Bible says that in the last days, the world will be destroyed again.
...this time by a flood of fire! (2 Peter 3:6,7)

Does God have another lifeboat that can protect us like the ark?
Yes! JESUS is not only our lifeboat, He is our "life preserver" too!
"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life" (John 3:16)
This is like the sacrifice God made for you! The Bible says,
"The Father Himself loves you" (John 16:27). He gave His Son, Jesus, to die for your sins so that you can be forgiven and saved. GOD'S LOVE IS AMAZING.
