Earth is Flat # 210e

Go to the top of the highest hill around or, better yet the highest mountain, and you can see a long, long way. You can also see Earth is flat. At least that’s the way it looks. Go out on the ocean and it is very flat.

For most of history people thought Earth was flat, that a god held it up on his hand like a pizza. Everyone knew if you sailed too far across the ocean you would fall off of the edge. The Greeks finally came up with the idea of Atlas holding Earth as a large ball in his hand.

The Jews had it figured out way before the Greeks. Well, not exactly. They cheated. The one and only god, YAHWEH, who knows everything, told them approximately four thousand years ago that Earth is a sphere (like a ball). The Bible in Isaiah 40:22 says, “He (God) sits enthroned above the circle of the earth…” The Hebrew word translated as circle is “khug” which actually means sphere or roundness.The Bible says in Job 26:7, “…He (God) suspends the earth over nothing.” This Hebrew word can be translated as over or as upon. Sure enough, there is nothing physical holding the earth up.

We should have been paying attention all along to the facts which The Bible gave us thousands of years before our recent “discoveries.”

Please forward this to everyone.
