The earth is flat

The Bible speaks of the Earth being a sphere hung in space

 

No, it's not.

 

And I saw an angel come down from heaven, having the key of the bottomless pit and a great chain in his hand.

2 And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

3 And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

4 And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.

5 But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.

6 Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.

7 And when the thousand years are expired, Satan shall be loosed out of his prison,

There can no bottomless pit in a flat earth that is motionless.

 

Job 26:7, ". . . He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing. . . ."

Isaiah 40:22, '. . . that sitteth upon the | shere | 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: . . ."

 

Ever heard of a figure of speech?

the Bible is full of them

try reading Daniel and Revelation to start

 

The firmament is also flat. It is not a dome. It has the same volume of area as the earth.

A bottomless pit? Instead of those long foundations pictured, think of a chain dangling out of a hole like a light fixture in a ceiling. It is dark in the "basement". Just a chain, no "light fixture". The Egyptians thought the sun went "under the earth". No, it just went in a circular course above the earth.

 

Where in the Bible does it say this?

 

What Does the Bible Say About The Earth Is A Sphere?

 

Thank you for your response. I was actually asking, where does the Bible say the Earth is a sphere, not where does the Bible say the Earth is a circle. Do you know of somewhere in the Bible it is referred to as a "sphere"?

 

Well, go fall off the edge and I will believe you.

 

Ever been to Australia? Tell me about the constellations there, and how they differ from the constellations visible from North America.

 

ECc 1:6. The wind returns to where it started

how can that be unless it is some type of sphere

 

ECC 1:5 speaks of the rising and setting of the sun

 

Isaiah 40:21-22

 

The Universe Confirms the Bible

 

Yet another thread calculated to undercut Biblical authority.

 

Yet another meaningless post to hear yourself talk.
