Do you really think that the moon is nestled in the clouds ?Do you ever look at the moon nestled in the clouds and think 'Those clouds are 250,000 miles away?'
There is no statement in scriptures which says that the earth is flat. The closest that we get to such a comprehensive description ... is that the earth is like a circle ...
Isaiah 40:22 It is He that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:

How do jetliners avoid seeing it ... or colliding with it ... when they are traveling through the clouds ... or over the clouds ?
But the speech in the Bible is colloquial, ... not scientific. The Bible speaks in the way the authors thought and spoke ...Joshua 10 is not a figure of speech, he, Joshua commanded the sun (and moon) to stop moving. the Bible states that the sun stopped and the moon.
The "four corners of the earth" ... is a figure of speech, ... one which we still use today ...Rev. 7:1 four corners of the earth. How can a globe have corners, or do you deny the holy word of God.
Really ???Clearly the moon is directly over the plane.
No one wave is going to obscure the sight of a bridge ... unless it's a tsunami ...The answer is seen every day, it is simple perspective. As objects advance away from a point they get smaller.
That is why, take a large lake or the ocean, why can objects not be seen at far distances unless the lake or ocean is absolutely calm and flat.
Because an object (bridge that is right above the water) that is say 10 miles away. A wave that is 100 yards from a person filming that may be two feet high. Will be larger that a bridge that is 10 miles away and more than likely cover or hide the bridge. If one was to take a camera and take a photo of the bridge 10 miles away the wave would cover up the far away bridge. It has nothing to do with a curving earth.

Do you think anyone who's been on a flight into space will ever blow their cover and announce that this world is really flat?
No.Do you believe the Earth is flat?
Why are flat earth preachers use denigration as a arguing technique ?I never said it was not aerial perspective. I paint landscapes i understand about color, perspective, etc..
If you have trouble seeing and understanding perspective and how it works. Go get a pencil and paper and develop your visual skills.
Obviously your visual observation skills are lacking if you think you are looking at a moon that is 200,000+ miles away or a sun that is 93 million + away.
I really can not even began to have a serious discussion about observation, if you believe sciences distance numbers.

That has nothing to with the earth being flat ... it's about the earth having "corners" ... which it wouldn't have, if the earth is a circle, as Isaiah 40:22 says ...Well of course we still use it, the earth is flat.

If you please, ... where are these corners ???

These are directions, aren't they ?The four corners is easy to solve; north, east, south and west.
