If the ark were to be found now, I daresay it would be powerless. It carried the manifest Presence of God, which now resides just as powerfully in the born-again spirit of a believer, according to the New Testament. To an unbeliever, contact could still be catastrophic. But in regard to Biblical accuracy, archaeologists have been unable to disprove one Biblical account. To the contrary, many archaeologists who set out to do so have been converted to Christianity on it's historical accuracy alone. In exemplis, the route of the Exodus was a "laughingstock" of the scientific community for almost a hundred years. No evidence of it was found on the traditional route, which crossed along the Gulf of Suez and continued down to the southernmost tip of the Sinai Peninsula before curving back up to enter Canaan. However, the Apostle Paul locates Mt. Sinai in Arabia. So when that was used as the focal point of Hebrew travels, crossing the Gulf of Aqaba rather than Suez, evidence after evidence was uncovered. God desires faith, not "blind faith." He's not afraid to stand up to any scrutiny.
