Does the Bible support the idea of a spinning ball earth flying through space, or is that a Satanic, Masonic lie?

The key word in that verse you provided was 'globe' and not sphere. A globe is round. Definitely circular too a it would appear from a distance in outer space. That particular verse you provided from Isaiah contradicts your position that the earth is flat.

wow talk about not caring if your wrong, but you sir really have excelled in this field.
You've ignored at least 20 good reasons that prove the theories of what your basing your information on don't hold substance to your claim.

I don't typically engage with elephant hurlers. Name one or two of your best arguments, and if you're genuine, I might show you how they're wrong. You produce a list of chaff, and most won't bother.

Sir are you also going to dismiss Google earth and satellite data, plus live broadcasts from space stations in space.

Google Earth is a collection of photographs. Which are flat...

Appeal to authority or bandwagon. A logical fallacy, either way.

Truth is more important to me than popularity.

Arguing from the silence of scripture?

Sir this is no reason to prove the earth is flat.

You mistake the burden of proof here. Flat Earth is an observation. Ball Earth is your claim, and it is you who need to prove it, as the default is our observation, that the Earth is flat.

A statement of fact does not need to have explicit biblical support. Male humans produce sperm and female humans produce eggs. Two of them, one of each kind, join together to make a zygote; the Bible says no such thing, but it is true nonetheless.

Genesis 1:27-28 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

Dino246 said:
Um, no. God is not limited by physics at all. If He were, the event would not have happened at all. ;)

I didn't say He was limited by physics. The event was real, and God stopped the sun, which implies that it was the sun which was (and still is to this day) moving.

None of these directly precludes heliocentricity. It's only your misunderstanding of them that does so.

You don't need to accept it, but they do.

There are scientifically sound explanations for the first two assertions; some people hold to the third but I don't as I see no need for it.
Click to expand...
I outlined the valid scientific explanations. They are lacking philosophically, and/or in what we know of the nature of God.

Dino246 said:
You might think your statement is a valid argument, but it isn't. You are pretending that you have proven (or that someone else has) that stars are closer and that heliocentric theory has been disproven. That's the essence of circular reasoning.
Click to expand...
You forget the burden of proof. I don't need to prove Flat Earth. It is an observation. Failure to prove ball-Earth - which you have thus far failed to prove - results in acceptance of what we observe, which is Flat Earth. No circular reasoning required.

Dino246 said:
Here I agree with you.

Congratulations. I hope you enjoy being right for once.

Dino246 said:
You are making an error of scale. The sun is billions of times brighter than a weak torch, and the degree to which the atmosphere inhibits light is not billions of times greater at the distances under discussion.
Click to expand...
And yet the same physics apply, just on a greater scale. Science.

Dino246 said:
This does not come from nor does it describe literal light and darkness; it is a philosophical axiom based (ultimately) on the nature of sin-ridden yet God-created humanity.

Opinion.

Dino246 said:
This is either sheer arrogance or blatant ignorance. Flat earth is not "an observation" but an interpretation based on misinterpretation of Scripture (for those who believe in Scripture) or science (for those who don't).
Click to expand...
It is very much an observation. Indeed, one of the main excuses of heliocentrists is that we can't see the curvature of the Earth because we are not high enough. Lol.

Dino246 said:
I observe conditions in the real world that are consistent with a globe earth and inconsistent with a flat earth.
Click to expand...
No. You apply a heliocentric theory to explain conditions in the real world that you believe are consistent with a globe Earth, and which you believe are inconsistent with a Flat Earth. What you observe is still a Flat Earth.

ALL PILOTS KNOW THE EARTH IS LEVEL! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

If the Earth were truly a sphere 25,000 miles in circumference, airplane pilots would have to constantly correct their altitudes downwards so as to not fly straight off into “outer space;” a pilot wishing to simply maintain their altitude at a typical cruising speed of 500 mph, would have to constantly dip their nose downwards and descend 2,777 feet (over half a mile) every minute! Otherwise, without compensation, in one hour’s time the pilot would find themselves 31.5 miles higher than expected.

you can't see the curvature of the earth because its extremely huge, the only way to see it, is to view it from space.

Which for some reason millions of satellites orbiting in space is a myth but yet the company I work for relays informatioñ from over 100 satellites orbiting earth in line with its spin.

That's so anyone of our trucks all over the world has tracking Gps plus global communication all over the word, plus the ability to transmit video data via a satellite in space.

If a truck moves from one region to another in the opposite direction the earth is spinning it quickly loses its satellite that is also spinning with the natural rotation of earth's space, until it locks on to another.

But yet theese sattelites are so clever you fail to recognises they can show earth's true image.

Or perhaps you don't think theese satellites stations don't exist in space.

Please post a picture of a group at satellites in space (Don't Post a CGI); It should be really easy because NASA claims there are over 3,000 satellites in space.
