    Flat Earth From a Christian Perspective (MAP OF THE, Vii = iggant EARTH. Overview on why biblical verses say the Earth is flat, and theorizes as to why there was a deception to claim the Earth is a sphere. Introduction The Earth being flat is a highly contentious subject these days. The belief that the Earth was flat was still prevalent into the [7th century in some places.’ Humans have believed the Earth was flat much longer than we have believed that the Earth was.a sphere. Many Christians believe the Earth to be.a sphere in an infinite universe, Actually it's probably most Christians, as it is with most people in the world. The number of people starting to come to the conclusion that the earth is flat in the last few years, is growing exponentially. If you look up videos on YouTube, you will see these videos are popping up regularly. if the. science for a spherical Earth was so undeniable, why would the number of people starting to debunk it be growing? | submit to you, that God is fed up with Christians being ied to and being deceived. Also, that because of this deception, there will come an even larger one in the end of days. God wants us to be prepared. This paper will discuss the flat Earth theory from a solely Christian Bible perspective. I'll talk about the verses that show how the Earth was made, and the verses that show it is clearly flat. Then, | will theorize as to why those who know this are keeping us in the dark from a purley biblical standpoint. Uhttp-//wew.miafacts.org/lists.htm Cover Image: http:/ /www.theflatearthsociety.org/cms/index.php/gallery/flat-earth-maps The Bible’s View of Earth In Genesis there is a descripition of the creation of Earth, Follow along and look at the picture and discern for yourself if it seems acourate. according to the bible. Genesis 5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day. & And God caid, Let there be.a firmament in the midct of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters. 7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the fir- mament: and it was so. © And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day. 4 ‘And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together wrto one place, and let the ary land appear: and it was so. 10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seac: and God caw that it was good. Some may think that the firmament between waters was the land, but you can clearly see it's not, since the land is dealt with on another day. The Firmament is FIRM, it is hard; it is the shell or dome that keeps the water above us from coming down an us. Heaven of Heavens Heaven of Heavens: filled with fire and ihtning (Enoch 2) http://www. internetmonk.com/wp-content/uplaads/genesis_cosmology jpg The Bible’s View of Earth Looking back at the picture you can cee the floodgates in the firmament, they were used for Noah's flood. Genesis 7-II ln the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on the came day all the fountaine of the great deep burst open, and the floodgates of the eky were opened. 12 The rain fell upon the. earth for forty days and forty rights Now as for the Earth spinning around in space, the bible says the Earth cannot be moved, so this cannot be. so. The bible can't get any clearer about the Earth not moving than this: I Chronicles 16:30 Fear before im, all the earth: the world also shall be stable, that it be not moved. Palin 42:1 The Lord reigneth, be is clothed with majesty; the Lord is clothed with strength, wherewith he hath girded himself the world also is stabished, that it canmat be moved. Pcalm 46:10 Say among the heathen that the Lord reignethe the world also shall be ectabliched that it shall not be moved: be shall judge the people righteously. salen 1045 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that It should nat be removed for ever. 6Thow coveredst it with the deep as with a garment: the waters stood above the: mountains. On a global Earth, the sides of the Earth should curve as you look out, But if the Earth is flat, and you get up high enough to not have obstacles in the way of your view, you can see very, very far. Daniel 4:10-I1 10 Thus were the visions of mine head in my bed; Icaw, and behold a tree in the midst of the earth, and the. beight thereof wac great. Il The tree grew, and was strong, and the height thereof reached unto heaven, and the cight thereat to the end of all the earth: A tree that was the height of heaven would be visible to the ends of the Earth, if it’s flat. This would not work if the Earth is a sphere. The Bible’s View of Earth When you say the Earth is flat, people immediately think of water falling off the edges. 2 You can see how everything can be contained in a circle surrounded by Antarctica. The Antarctic is Earth's only continent without a native human population.* 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 ctwell in Some may claim that the circle in that verse is due to the Earth being a sphere, but you can clearly see how the Earth could be.a circle. The #2 picture also shows how there could be 4 corners. The #4. picture shows how the sun and moon can rotate around us and it can be dark and light on opposite sides of the Earth, | http://scienceblogs.com/startswithabang/ZOll/04/Z1/who-discovered-the-earth-is-ro/ 2 http://www.theflatearthsociety.org/forum/index.php?topic=63380.0 3 hitps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antarctic_Treaty System 4 http://www.atlanteanc onspiracy.com/2014/1l/the-globe-earth-lie. html The Bible’s View of Earth There. are videos on YouTube that show how the seasons can happen, how the sun can rotate in a larger circle which takes longer to go around, and vice versa. The science behind the flat Earth is being put together from everyone who wants to prove the reality, because the scientists of today will not hear any new theories. | will not be discussing the science with the flat Earth. This paper is only on the bible's view that it is indeed flat. Here is another verse that shows the devil showing Jesus the whale Earth while he's on top of a mountain. He would not be able to see all the kingdoms if the earth was a globe. Matthew 4:2 Again, the devil took Him to a very high mountain ahd showed Hin all the: kingdoms of the world and their glory: 4 and he said to Hint, “All these things | will give You, if You fall down and worship me.” The bible describes God creating everything. He does nat create planets. Yes, you can argue that planets are covered under stars, but if we realize the Earth is flat according ta the bible, then we must realize that the government is lying about space travel. When you look at the firmament above us, you realize we cannot go higher than that. | will discuss why they've lied later, but if you can realize that this is true, you can see that there are no planets. God didn't create them. Genesis Ll4 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; anu let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years: 1S And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so, 16 And God wade two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the: lesser light to rule the night: be made the stars also. 17 Av God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the. earth Why the Deception? Under the premise that the earth is flat, and has a dome of firmament above the sky that we cannot go through, you start to wonder why did the government not tell us, and why do they continue to lie and pump out new information and pictures about the planets? To many, the pictures of the solar system and planets proves the Earth is a sphere. These. people will never believe the government has lied to us until they can see a reason as to why they would. That's understandable. Let's start at the beginning of the bible. The world was created and we know the devil was around before man was created, because he was there to tempt Eve into eating the fruit shortly after she was: created. When God is told that Adam and Eve have eaten the fruit He gives His decree: Genesis 2:14 And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beact of the field; upon thy belly chat thou go, and duct chalt thou eat all the days of thy life: 1S And P will pt ehiity between thes and the wortah, ahd between thy seed and her seed; it chall Bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his eel, This verse has been to predict the coming of Jesus to defeat the devil on the cross. You can see God placed enmity, the state or feeling of being actively opposed or hostile to someone or something, between humans and the devil. We are to hate evil, and evil is to hate us. Once you get ta the story of the days of Noah, you can see that 1/3 of angels fell to the earth and took human women as their wives and beget giants, also known as Nephilim, human-angel hybrids. There is much more information on this in the book of Enoch, which was not added to the bible, even though Enoch is mentioned in the bible, and many verses of Enoch are in the bible in spirit (other authors say the. same thing in their own words). | believe it should have been in the bible, but it makes sense that it was left out, once | explain the rest. Why the Deception? But, even with ignoring Enoch, the bible does describe the fallen angels having ange!-human offspring, and we know because of this, and because of the humans sinning, God decides to send a flood. The book of Enoch shows that the fallen angels taught humans technology that led to them sinning, so this makes sense, but that part is skipped in the bible. Genesis 6 And it came to pass, when men began to muttiply on the face of the earth, and daughters were born unto them, 2 ‘That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they were fair; and they took them wives of al which they chose. 3 And the Lord said, My spitt shall not always strive with man, for that he also is flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years. 4 There were giante in the earth in those days; and alco after that, when the conc of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they baré children to them, the same became mighty men which were of old, men of renown. 5 And God saw that ‘the wickedness of man was great In the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was onty evil continu- ally. 6 And it repented the Lord that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. 7 And the Lord said, | will destroy man whom | have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beact, and the creeping thing, and the. fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them. & But Noah found grace in the eyes of the Lord. 4 Thece are the genera- tions of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God. The verse also describes the Nephilim as the “mighty men which were of old, men of renown”. | believe that the fallen angels and/or Nephilim were who the pagan religions worshiped as gods.
