Hello Dan!
In regards to Ron Wyatt I was refering to the Chariot Wheels he found in the Red Sea. They are really there.
Your right about the Bible being a factual book of History.
Its known in Israel that they have the Ark of the Covenant under heavily armed guard somewhere in the caves and tunnels of King Hezikiah I believe. It is sealed behind concrete and bars. Because of an earthquake or something a couple men clmbed in through a small opening not to long ago. I forgot exactly what happened to them when they did this but I will check into it and post up my findings.
