FLAT or ROUND Earth?

[Hans Blaster]

After years of science, nasa, etc... stating we have done this or that. Sent pictures back from mars, landed on an asteroid, photograph the moon and earth out in space. But never have i seen a live recording (as i have post of jupiter) of the earth moving through space. I mean if this is real, set up a camera on the moon and record at least minute of the earth moving through space

The motion you are objecting to, the motion that makes Jupiter appear to move in the video you posted is the ROTATION of the Earth about an axis. This is the motion you are currently denying. The counter to your claim is to show the Earth rotating in space. So from the

DSCOVR: Deep Space Climate Observatory

which sits in an L1 point between the Sun and Earth and stares at the Earth full time. Watch it spin here:

Actually the further America has gotten away from God, the more it has declined as a world leader.

When was America close to God?

I hear a lot of Christians saying that we live on a flat earth and nobody can go in or out the earth. Is the Bible clear on this subject?

To date I have never heard a Christian refer to a flat earth. But I may be isolated. It is hard to believe the earth is flat just from observation. We fly planes around it. We have ships circling the earth. There are satellites circling the earth. Our space program has spacecraft circling the earth as well as space stations. I do not know of any scripture passage the specifically says the earth is flat. But someone may educate me there.

I have never been beyond the atmospheric space.... Although I have to believe that everyone who has ….if it were flat ....someone would have said something…

I have only been confronted by two people who were convinced it was flat ….My response is … “So what!....It doesn’t affect my appetite…. and Christ is still going to return.”
I absolutely do not believe it is.... but I also am not going to waste my time on something that doesn't matter to me

Never heard a Christian say this.

Round Earth -- flat maps.

The Bible speaks of the Earth as sphere, and says the boundary between light and dark on Earth - is a circle. That only works on a round ball.

 

[SabbathBlessings]

Isaiah 40:22 It is He who sits above the circle of the earth, And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers, Who stretches out the heavens like a curtain, And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.

The earth God created is not only flat but stationary. Earth in The Bible means land/ground and not a water covered space ball with land scattered around it. The creation God created is covered by a raqia (dome) that is separating waters from waters. Genesis plainly states that God placed the sun, moon and stars in the raqia. so these light are not millions of miles away. Plus they move over the earth giving light.

Sciences creation version is simply a big ole lie.

Isaiah 40:22

22 He sits enthroned above the circle of the earth; its dwellers are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a curtain, and spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.

When you look at the lexicon .... it's defined as a vault ... a vault has a ceiling ... an arch (has a ceiling)

So the way I look at it (using Isaiah) .. is the earth is basically round with in a vault (contained) that has a see through and penetratable ceiling

science defines the see through ceiling as atmosphere (vault)

In that regard ... no the earth isn't flat. If nobody can go outside of the earth .... then all reported space exploration, hubble telescopes etc. are the biggest and most expensive hoax(s) pulled off in history LOL .... so like all the astronauts were hollywood actors and everything is cgi created? LOL

can't go in or out of the earth???

Satellites are sent into space by a rocket launched from the ground with enough energy (at least 25,039 mph!) to get outside our atmosphere.

While there are about 2,000 active satellites orbiting Earth at the moment, there are also 3,000 dead ones littering space.

not sure if I'm explaining very well ... LOL

Might add the second part of the verse is interesting as well .... stretches (continuous) and science says the universe is continuously expanding.

..It doesn’t affect my appetite….

What an interesting idea!

The earth that God created or brought forth from the sea in Genesis chapter 1. Is actually flat and round being that the land is a flat circular one piece of ground. It was only broken up at a later time in Genesis and 1 Chronicles The Bible states.
To Eber were born two sons: the name of one was Peleg, for in his days the earth was divided; and his brother’s name was Joktan.

Augustine, in his commentary on Genesis, describes people like this and shows what a stumbling block they are to Christian witness. Augustine, On Genesis

Does anyone know, is it MOSTLY Christians who have fallen for the flat Earth fraud???

Hmmm. I do not know a single soul.

Augustine who believed in works for receiving God's free gift of Eternal Life salvation. Has no influence on me for any Biblical teaching. So saying Augustine, saying that God's creation, is a stumbling block to christian witness. Would line up with one who like Augustine, does not believe God at God's own written words.

Genesis does not say "flat".

Do you have a citation, or is this just you saying?

I am pro Round Earth and pro flat maps! (I was also a science teacher for 12 years.... this makes me want face palm.)

Every Christian that I've talked to in my whole life (of almost 38 years) knows the Earth is round.
