Flat Earth or Round Earth?
For all of you “flat earthers” out there?
I have some immutable facts for you
Look at the crescent moon and the waning moon, both reflections from the earth are round, not flat or square.
Latitude and longitude and flight vectors every pilot uses to navigate the globe would not be possible if the earth were flat.
Using the same flight vector going due east just keep flying and eventually you come back around to the same longitude and latitude you started in. This in itself is proof the earth is a globe…end of story.
Circle is only mentioned one time in God’s word.
Isaiah 40:21 Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?
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:

The most logical definition is “Vast Expanse of Heaven” The firmament I believe is also speaking about the ozone layer.
The fact that we have seasons is proof the earth is on axis 23.5 degrees and it is orbiting around the sun. The crescent moon is proof the earth is round because of the reflection on the moon in its cycles. All reflections are round because the earth is round.

Circuit
1 Samuel 7:16 And he went from year to year in circuit to Bethel, and Gilgal, and Mizpeh, and judged Israel in all those places.
Job 22:14 Thick clouds are a covering to him, that he seeth not; and he walketh in the circuit of heaven.
Psalm 19:6 His going forth is from the end of the heaven, and his circuit unto the ends of it: and there is nothing hid from the heat thereof.
Ecclesiastes 1:6 The wind goeth toward the south, and turneth about unto the north; it whirleth about continually, and the wind returneth again according to his circuits.
To assume that the circle mentioned in the Bible is a circle one way and flat the other way is completely illogical. Nowhere is it mentioned the earth is flat in the entire Bible.
When the term 4 corners is used the Bible is referring to east, west, north and south.
