<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nEven within the \u201cflat Earth\u201d community, most or many believe believe that the flat Earth has curved edges. Even the founder of the International Flat Earth Society, Charles K. Johnson, made the error of assuming that the Earth was shaped like a circular<\/em> disk. Of course nothing could be further from the truth according to the Square Earth people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Much of the Square Earth Society\u2019s reasoning is based on the Biblical facts and they claim that every good Biblical literalist knows all the Scriptural passages which demonstrate that the Earth does not move and that its surface is not curved. The Book of Revelation, chapter 7, verse 1, makes the following unmistakable statement about the shape of the Earth: \u201cAfter this I saw four angels standing at the four corners of the earth, holding back the four winds of the earth to prevent any wind from blowing on the land or on the sea or on any tree.<\/em>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n That sure seems to make a good case for the Earth not being round. But the Square Earth Society offers many, many passages in the Bible supporting the argument that the Earth is really square, like: Daniel 4:10-11, Matthew 4:8, Joshua 10:12, Chronicles 16:30. Psalms 93: & 96:10& 104:5, Isaiah 45:18 and (as the society says) the list goes on and on. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Now \u2014 if all those Bible verses aren\u2019t enough to convince you, the Square Earth Society asks you to consider this: (I am not making this up.)\u00a0 More evidence for the God\/Baseball\/Square-Earth connection can be found in the shape of the base bags, which are also perfectly square and oriented with their corners facing the same compass points that the diamond as a whole does, and in the fact that baseball\u2019s most sacred ritual is called the World Series<\/em>. And lest you doubt that Baseball is a divinely inspired game, I remind you that Charley McDowell has noted that the 90-foot distance between home plate and first base, which is just<\/em> the right distance to make the game exciting, \u201cwas a pick from heaven.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n But wait! There\u2019s more\u2026. This clearly shows that the Earth rests on an unspecified number of pillars. (A couple of translations of the Old Testament floating around say \u201cfoundations\u201d or \u201cfixtures\u201d in place of pillars, but the original Hebrew word that appears here is \u201cMatsuwq,\u201d which literally means a cast metal support, a pillar, or a column.) What the pillars are resting on is unknown. They might not be resting on anything. Perhaps they are being held up by devine grace. Perhaps they are infinitely tall. All we know for sure is that a set of pillars beneath the Earth must exist. There have been many many attempts to disprove the facts laid out by the Square Earth Society, but they have answers for them all. I don\u2019t have time, or room, here to list them all, but I think it\u2019s worthwhile to show an example of the many futile attempts to discredit this theory. Many people have challenged the theory by asking, \u201cWhat about Isaiah 40:22?\u201d (Isaiah, chapter 40, verse 22 reads: \u201cHe sits enthroned above the circle of the earth, an its people are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like a canopy, and spreads them out like a tent to live in<\/em>.\u201d)<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Square Earth Society responded: \u201cDoes this mean the Earth is circular? Not at all. If it were circular, Job\u2019s mention of the ends<\/em> of the Earth would be meaningless. The word translated as \u201ccircle\u201d in this verse is the Hebrew \u201cChuwg,\u201d which can<\/em> mean circle, but can also mean circuit or compass. When occurring by itself, this word can also mean the vault of the heavens. This verse probably refers to the fact that God sits enthroned above the vault of the heavens, which encompasses<\/em> the whole Earth. Beside, everyone knows that tents are supposed to be square.\u201d I don\u2019t know about you, but it seems to me that it\u2019s impossible to read the news on any given day without running across an article about some conspiracy. Personally, I\u2019m becoming skeptical of just about everything. I really thought … Continue reading
\u201cOf all the nations on Earth today, God most loves the United States of America. (This is evident from songs like \u201cGod Bless America,\u201d and from the fact that Pat Robertson, God\u2019s\u00a0 chosen spokesman, lives in the U.S.) America\u2019s national pastime is the game of baseball. Baseball is played on a \u201cdiamond,\u201d which is perfectly square in shape \u2014 and which, I might add, has its corners oriented to point toward the four compass points. God would not have made baseball into the national pastime of His favorite nation if He didn\u2019t have a higher purpose in mind for it. Clearly, His higher purpose is to show us the True shape of the Earth. The Earth must be perfectly square, just like the diamond shaped field in God\u2019s Chosen Sport is square.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Take a gander at this passage from First Samuel:
\u201cHe raiseth up the poor out of the dust, and lifted up the beggar from the dunghill, to set them among princes, and to make them inherit the throne of glory: for the pillars of the earth are the LORD\u2019s, and he hath set the world upon them\u201d
~ 1 Samuel 2:8<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This means that Hell, which is under the Earth, is interrupted by pillars in some places. This may explain how Satan is going to break out of Hell after the thousand years of peace in Revelation\u2026..
Wow! Talk about a compelling argument!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I just don\u2019t know what to say \u2014 the Square Earth Society seems to have the answer to any counter argument presented\u2026.
I think I\u2019ve done my duty by bringing this most import subject to your attention\u2026.
