Lets clear up something once and for all, shall we?

Isaiah 40:22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as locusts: he that stretcheth out the heavens as nothing, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.

Isaiah 22: 18 He will crown thee with a crown of tribulation, he will toss thee like a ball into a large and spacious country: there shalt thou die, and there shall the chariot of thy glory be, the shame of the house of thy Lord.

Now, since there is definitely a word for 'ball', and another for 'circle', then Isaiah 40:22 cannot possibly be saying earth is a ball.

:heretic:

Thanks for making the distinction.

The Latin word for ball is "pilam."

Isaiah 40:22 does NOT say He sitteth above the 'pilam.'

Here's Isaiah 22:18:

Quote

He will crown thee with a crown of tribulation, he will toss thee like a ball into a large and spacious country: there shalt thou die, and there shall the chariot of thy glory be, the shame of the house of thy Lord.

Coronas cornonabit te tribulatione; quasi pilam mittet te in terram latam et spatiosam; ibi morieris, et ibi erit currus gloriae tuae, ignominia domus domini tui.

Quote from: Truth is Eternal
Those scriptures above you posted about the sun are referring to the suns movement above the flat earth.

Ahr yoo shore abowt thad?

Then the Flat Earth Model you believe in has the sun actively rising and falling, not revolving above it as I've seen most of you posit. Of course this would not explain how the sun is seen around the world 24/7, unless you believed there was a hemisphere on the opposite side of the earth disk, but since the sun goes from east to west and not north to south or vice-versa, you can't neatly fold it along the equator. Not that that works either because as mentioned before you must contend with not one but two pole stars, one for both northern and southern hemispheres.

You haven't seen me posit that. I believe as Enoch and Cosmas described the sun's movement.

Well then I suppose you could respond to what applies to you. If the shoe fits, wear it.

Quote from: Truth is Eternal

The earth does not rise and set; the flat earth is literally stationary.

That's good because I'm talking about the Sun.

Still waiting for mw2016 amazing sunspot demonstration, her pics of the four corners of the Earth, and any one of you to be honest that your absolute literal approach to Holy Scripture as a dead end.
