The Flat Earth Doctrine
Here I will begin to explain some of the concepts of flat earth according to the bible, I will also included some pictures for visual reference. There are many aspects of the flat earth doctrine, and it will be impossible for me to address every single question that may arise on my own. But these verses should be enough to help you question the narrative of the mainstream media.
The first few sections will cover general introductory questions. Then I will break off into specific aspects of each element of the flat earth (such as; the sun, the moon, the firmament, the ice wall, etc..). I will also include some portions of my blog posts that are relevant to these specific explanations.
Here are some of my posts that specifically cover aspects of the flat earth:
The Depleting Ozone Layer & The Shield Of The Mighty - Briefly explains the height of the ozone layer in relation to the height of the sun and firmament.
The Six Wings Of The Seraphims - Explains how certain layers of the brain relate to the structure of the atmosphere and why the world is modeled in this manner.
The Seraphims - Explains the geographic relationship between humans and the stars in conjuction to the layout of the white and grey matter of the brain.
The Firmament Upon Their Heads - Explains what the sun and moon are modeled after within the head, including references to alchemical literature.
The Dreadful Rings - Explains what the term “wheels” are in reference to within the scriptures, and how this aligns with the true nature of stars in the sky.
The Seven “Planets” - Explains in depth what the word “planets” is speaking about within the bible. Including what they are made of, how they relate to stars and “galaxies”, and even why their astronomical symbols are depicted in such a way that aligns with their chemical formation.

Why Would The World Lie About The Size & Shape Of Earth?
This is a very common question amongst individuals who have a childlike adoration for the governments of this world, thinking they can do no wrong toward their people. However, biblically this is simply not the case, as we can see from Romans 3,
4 God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
The world is always judging the word of God, because the bible is contrary to the beliefs of this world. If you desire to be a believer, you must decide early on if you are going to take the bible as truth (which says every man is a liar), or if you take man’s word as truth, which is the ever-changing science and history of the mainstream media.
A great way to keep power from the people, is to lie and say they are on a spinning small speck of a “planet” in the “universe”, and make them feel extremely insignificant in the grand scheme of “space”. Remember, there is no single individual that is safe from deception, as Revelation 12 clearly states,
9 And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him.
The whole world is deceived, not some of the world, not exclusively other religions, but every single person. This is why the bible says in Ephesians 6,
12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
The high places being described here are the governments and rulers who are far above you in power, all working in unison, portraying the idea that they are separate entities, meanwhile they are all part of the game.
Most people do not understand, that in order to even receive a position of power within any government, you must worship a devil. As we can see from Luke 4,
5 And the devil, taking him up into an high mountain, shewed unto him all the kingdoms of the world in a moment of time.
6 And the devil said unto him, All this power will I give thee, and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it.
7 If thou therefore wilt worship me, all shall be thine.
So do not be surprised that all the world can be deceived in unison, when a singular spiritual entity can offer all kingdoms of this present world.
What Does The Flat Earth Look Like?
Due to all the persecution that comes along with believing the earth is flat, the common people have trouble grapsing the true concept of the flat earth. From memes and blasphemous media outlets, they attempt to portray an idea that we believe the earth is a disk hurdling through “space”. However, in order to continue, just throw that dumb idea right out the window.
There is only the heaven (sky) and the earth (ground), it is an enclosed system with absolutely nothing on the outside. Even the sheeple believe this concept from their physicists, who say that the “universe” is “expanding into nothing”. So if you believe the so-called universe is expanding into nothingness, then why is it a hard concept to believe that the world itself is simply situated within nothingness?
As the bible says in Job 26,
7 He stretcheth out the north over the empty place, and hangeth the earth upon nothing.
To stretch out the north is a way of explaining the formation of the sky, because the sky itself may seem physically empty, but it is not elementally empty. The sky (physical heaven) is filled with elements that make up the air you breathe, the ozone that protects you from the sun, the waters that form the clouds, etc.. but to us it seems empty visibly. The earth is hung upon nothing in a literal sense, meaning there is nothing outside of earth, it is simply only the earth situated in a fixed location.
What Verses Show An Enclosed System?
Now when I say the world is an enclosed system, I mean the land itself is a plane (relatively level surface with peaks such as mountains, and dips such as oceans) and the sun, moon, and stars, circle overhead above. The image below shows a representation of this concept, but it is not really a perfect picture, because it is only showing the part of earth we inhabit, and there is more land under ice outside the wall. But for now, it is good enough to give a visual representation.
The entire host of heaven, and the earth itself is enclosed within what people call “a dome”, known as the firmament. We will get to each individual aspect of the flat earth, but for now, let’s read Isaiah 45 which says,
18 For thus saith the LORD that created the heavens; God himself that formed the earth and made it; he hath established it, he created it not in vain, he formed it to be inhabited: I am the LORD; and there is none else.
In this verse you can see that the earth and heavens were not created in vain, they were formed to be inhabited by man. It would be a vain creation to have a single perfect ecosystem and then make ten trillion uninhabitable planets just shooting around in space soup. That is dumb, dumb, and more dumb. The “universe” cannot be a biblical system if the bible says clearly in Genesis 2,
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
Everything is completely made by Genesis 2, nothing else needs to be expanding, nor are more “planets” and “star systems” forming haphazardly in space, it’s all there for good. And notice how every verse always says “earth” and not “earths”, because there is only one place to be occupied.
How Are The Sun, Moon, And Stars Within?
2 Kings 23 says,
5 And he put down the idolatrous priests, whom the kings of Judah had ordained to burn incense in the high places in the cities of Judah, and in the places round about Jerusalem; them also that burned incense unto Baal, to the sun, and to the moon, and to the planets, and to all the host of heaven.
In previous blog posts (such as The High Priest) I described what it means to burn incense (sacrifice), which is a spiritual term for the praise given to false gods. In this verse we see the subject being described are the entities that are visible above us, known as the sun, moon, planets, and stars. Due to the lies told within the media, and people believing the earth is a sphere hurdling through “space”, they automatically associate the fundamental elements of earth with these planets. Meaning they believe planets are terrestrial like earth, or at least contain a core of terrestrial matter.
However, as I have taught you many times, you need to allow the bible to define all of the language in which you think. If the term “planets” is only used one time in the bible, and is solely associated with the sun, moon, and stars (the high places), it allows you to understand that the earth itself is not a planet at all. The earth is the earth, never once referenced as a planet in the word of God, you were simply programmed by the media to associate all of these things together. Furthermore, the fact that we only see the word “planet” appear once in the bible, means these entities must be referenced under a different name throughout the scriptures, considering they are constantly present and worshipped in the sky above.
When comparing this verse to other scriptures, we see the same references defined in Deuteronomy 4 which says,
19 And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.
Both Deuteronomy 4, and 2 Kings 23, are describing the same entities from above, and even further proof is the fact that both verses say all the host of heaven. That means the same ‘planets’ referenced in 2 Kings 23, are part of the ‘host of heaven’, the entities that Israel is being warned not to worship. I make this point to further explain what these ‘planets’ represent, and I will utilize the description given at the end of the verse which states, ‘hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven’ This is the same description we see in Genesis 1 which says,
14 And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:
15 And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
All of these verses are covering the subject of the host of heaven, being described as lights above divided to all the nations to give light upon the earth. Completed in Genesis 2 which says,
1 Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.
This means that the term “planets“ is merely a distinction of the type of lights, to differentiate them from the sun, moon, and stars, though they all contain relatively similar properties in the fact that they are described as lights and not terrestrial bodies.
ASPECTS OF THE FLAT EARTH DIVIDED BY SUBJECT
I will split these subjects into parts, each will contain specific sections that cover an aspect of the various categories below.
Part 1 - The Sun
Section 1: Circuits
The sun travels in a circular pathway above the earth, giving light all over the world, and returning to your location at the same time every day within it’s set 24-hour period (depending upon the season). The best way to understand this is to picture a game of “tetherball”. In this game, a ball is connected to a central poll (like the north pole), and travels in a circular orbit around the poll, with it’s greatest diameter of it’s path (it’s farthest distance from the poll), at the beginning. Then as you continue to play, the cord wraps around the poll tighter and tighter until it’s distance from the poll has shrunk to nothing.
This is very similar to the circuit of the sun. Your geographical location determines what time of the year is summer (the most sunlight per day) and winter (the least sunlight per day). For this hypothetical scenario, imagine yourself closer to the south pole (the south pole on a magnetic disk is the outer edge of the disk), with the poll in the image above representing the magnetic north pole. At the start of “the game” (representing one year), the ball (representing the sun), would be directly overhead of your location for the longest period of time due to your location toward the outer edge of the circle (the south pole), which would be the mid-point of summer (the longest, and hottest day of the year). As the game continued (as the year continues), the rope attached to the ball begins to shorten in diameter due to it being wrapped around the poll with each swing. Therefore each circuit (circular orbit around the poll), the ball gets closer and closer to the north section.
Think of each “time” that the ball wraps around the poll above, it counted as a single day, and the rope was long enough for it to make 182.5 circuits until it tightened around the poll. I say 182.5, because each circuit represents a day (the sun traveling all the way around the “court”, or earth), and therefore it would take an additional 182.5 days to return to its original location (182.5 + 182.5 = 365 days in a year). This means that each day that goes by while you are in the south pole (outer edge of the court), the sun gets farther and farther away from you, giving you less light each day. Eventually becoming your winter, due to less heat over your geographical location. This process repeats all the way until the ball (the sun) returns to its original location and again it is the climax of summer for you.
Granted, this is not a perfect example, due to the physics of the tetherball game. For this to be a perfect example, the velocity of the tethered ball would need to decrease proportionately to the radius of the circle to allow for only one full circular orbit around the poll per day. However, the idea itself does create a good image of the path of the sun because, hypothetically, the ball would be traveling at it’s fastest speed from over the outer edge of the court from the initial hit of the game, and decrease in speed over time at it winds itself to the center (from air resistance). This is also true of the sun (somewhat), in that the distance it travels over time is greatest when at the south pole, meaning it has the greatest speed in the southern hemisphere’s summer to travel a larger orbit. Then the speed of the sun (it’s distance over time) decreases as it’s circuit nears the northern magnetic pole. Thus allowing for one full circuit (circular orbit around the middle of the disk, e.i. north pole) per day.
This can be explained through magnetic oscillation, and the elemental properties of the sun over the magnetic disk of the earth, but that is another teaching for another day. I simply wanted to provide this example so you could understand the concept of the sun’s ‘circuits’ (circular path) above the earth. Below I will include some verses that depict this trajectory within the scriptures.
Psalm 19 says,
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
5 Which is as a bridegroom coming out of his chamber, and rejoiceth as a strong man to run a race.
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.
As you can see above, these verses provide all the concepts I explained in the example above. The singular tabernacle for the sun is in the sky that is beneath the firmament (“dome”) upon the earth, which symbolically represents the skull (hence the eternal tabernacle being my mind).
When the bible uses the term ‘their’, it is referencing “the heavens” which were mentioned in the same chapter (not shown here). The reason it says ‘in them’ he hath set a tabernacle, is because as the sun makes it’s circuit upon the earth, you utilize it’s light to form images within your minds (minds = heavens, and images are formed within them via the brain’s interpretation of light reflecting off objects). Therefore the light of the sun and it’s intrinsic properties to give it’s light (it’s heat) to be utilized by the body (such as in vitamin D production, or sight), as well as by plants in photosynthesis, thus making it’s home in many things.
However, one of the main points to take away from these verses, is that the sun itself is doing the traveling, not the earth. The verse states “his going forth is from the end of heaven” (singular, meaning the sky of the earth, the physical manifestation of my mind), which, using our example above, would be depicting the pathway of the sun when it is over it’s southernmost (magnetic) point. This is the sun itself moving in one full circle per day, it is not the earth doing the traveling. Then the bible states that his circuit goes unto the other ends of it, and nothing is hid from his heat, meaning he continues in his circular path each and every day until his route has reach the magnetic north (which takes half of a year, then circuiting his way back to his original location the other half of the year).
This term ‘circuit’ can also be proven with another verse in Ecclesiastes 1 which states,
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.
The circular path of wind due to pressure systems has a similar trejectory to the circular path of the sun throughout the year, which is why the term circuit is used in both instances.
Wind circulates around high and low pressure systems, traveling via a pressure gradient. This can vary depending on the air system at play, but the higher the pressure, the faster the wind. Therefore, if you had a high pressure system with the isobaric locations (or “isobars”, which are those circular lines around pressure systems on weather maps) and the lines were getting closer together as you got further from the center (meaning less circles around the center, and more circles as the distance from the center increases), it would be a similar circuit to the sun. This is because the wind travels in it’s fastest circular path at the highest pressure gradient, from high (lines closer together) to low pressure (lines farther apart).
The high in pressure location in this scenario would be like the southern magnetic pole in the example above, and the low pressure would be like the northern magnetic pole in the example above. The highest pressure would cause the winds to whirl about the southern pole very quickly, then decrease in speed toward the lower pressure if it was situated in the north. This is on a small scale typically (multiple pressure gradients throughout the earth at any given time), but serves as an example to the larger circuit of the sun above the earth itself.
Section 2: Location
When you read the bible with pre-conceived notions, such as the sun being larger than, and outside the earth, you tend to miss the verses that tell a different story because you automatically try and fit them into your world view. Before I show you scriptures that describe the sun within earth’s very atmosphere, allow me to explain the concept of perspective. To do so, I will quote this digital photography article which has a lot of good examples for you to view to better understand perspectives and depths.
“Perspective is one of the many ways that the human eye can judge depth within a scene. Perspective is something that we can see with one eye (monocular) rather than two (binocular). It refers to the angle and location of parallel lines within a scene. The eye registers depth when parallel lines start moving towards each other (converging). An example would be standing on a straight road, looking down the road, and noticing how the road narrows as it gets further away from you.”
Viewing the image above, you can see how we have the same exact road, with the same width, but due to perspective it seems as if the edges are moving towards the center. The trick of the eyes is that depth perception causes things to appear not as they are in actuality. For example, if you were to keep walking along this road, you would notice that the road itself is not actually more narrow the further it goes along, but it is the same width and your eyes are making it look narrow to show you depth or distance. This means that the right (or left) side of the road appears to be moving toward the center, though it is not actually changing distance along the x-axis from your location. Additionally, it appears as if the road itself is getting higher, while the ground remains level. These are those “converging” parallel lines that were quoted above, they visibly seem to be moving toward each other toward a central location until you cannot see either anymore.
I bring this up so that you can better understand why it seems as if the sun is “dipping” below the horizon as it moves away from your perspective. If the earth is flat, the sun itself is not actually getting any lower in the sky as it moves away. Your eyes are simply doing the same thing they do with this road, where the object higher in the sky converges closer toward the ground, as the ground or sea converges upward toward the center of your vision. It gives the illusion that the sun itself is going around a curve, but as you can see with this road, no measurements are changing, your eyes are attempting to convey to your mind the depth of the scenery.
In the above video, you will see how using a high-zoom camera to change the location of your perspective, greatly increases your understanding of these converging visuals. The video shows a man that is 4-6 miles from the location of the boats he is filming, and yet, when he zooms in his perspective, he can see the boats clearly and at full height. This is significant, because a boat, like the sun, is simply an object moving along the horizon and appears to be going up or down according to your location and it’s distance from you. The curvature of the earth is simply defined as a drop in 8 inches per mile squared. In order to calculate this, using an average of 5 miles (between 4-6) on this curvature calculator, we should be seeing a curve of 16.67 feet, completely obscuring most of these boats from view. But clearly, we do not see that at all, being able to view even the bottom of the boats at these great distances.
Therefore, when the bible states in verses such as Genesis 15,
12 And when the sun was going down, a deep sleep fell upon Abram;
Or in Genesis 19,
23 The sun was risen upon the earth when Lot entered into Zoar.
You can now understand that these declarations are all a matter of perspective. The sun “appears” to be going down due to converging parallel lines as it travels away from you, and also “appears” to be rising as it comes closer toward your visual field. It is all a matter of location, relative to the subject (person) being discussed in the equation.
With that explained, I will show you some verses that clearly state the sun is within our own atmosphere, underneath what is known as the firmament, or “dome”. To do so, we will read Ezekiel 32 which says,
7 And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.
Notice how the bible is stating that the sun will be covered with a cloud. The sun itself, not the external rays of the sun, but the sun. To cover something according to the bible is to literally touch it, as seen in Genesis 7,
19 And the waters prevailed exceedingly upon the earth; and all the high hills, that were under the whole heaven, were covered.
These waters are covering the earth by putting themselves upon the earth. As a blanket covers a body, like we see in Genesis 9,
23 And Shem and Japheth took a garment, and laid it upon both their shoulders, and went backward, and covered the nakedness of their father; and their faces were backward, and they saw not their father's nakedness.
The same act is being described in Genesis 9 as in Ezekiel 32. Something is being covered (the sun vs. their father) by literally placing something over the subject in order to no longer see it. You can see the correlation between the garment and the cloud clearly from this example.
In the above image, you can clearly see that the sun itself is being wrapped (covered) by clouds. There are clouds in front, obscuring its view, and clouds clearly behind the subject, because the sun itself is not this massive object 1,287,000 times the size of earth. It is a light within the earth’s atmosphere that travels around in circuits in order to give it’s heat to all of the habitable parts of the earth each day.
Part 2 - The Moon
Section 1: Her Light
Both the sun and moon are given physical and spiritual descriptions within the bible, and are also even gender identified, with the sun be represented as “he” and the moon as “her”. As you can see here in Isaiah 13, which uses both significations in a single verse,
10 For the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth, and the moon shall not cause her light to shine.
The reason the sun and the moon have genders, is because all “lights” in the bible are represented as spirits, and therefore can be identified in their individuality. Here are a few examples to prove that point,
Job 18
5 Yea, the light of the wicked shall be put out, and the spark of his fire shall not shine.
Isaiah 9
2 The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.
Matthew 5
16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
Furthermore, the sun and moon are even given character representations within the bible itself, as you can see from this example in Genesis 37,
9 And he dreamed yet another dream, and told it his brethren, and said, Behold, I have dreamed a dream more; and, behold, the sun and the moon and the eleven stars made obeisance to me.
10 And he told it to his father, and to his brethren: and his father rebuked him, and said unto him, What is this dream that thou hast dreamed? Shall I and thy mother and thy brethren indeed come to bow down ourselves to thee to the earth?
This example is speaking about Joseph, and we learn that his father understands that the obeisance of the sun and moon in verse 9, is represented by the bowing of him and his mother in verse 10. Meaning the sun and the moon are Jacob and Rachel, and the eleven stars (or eleven constellations) are the brethren of Joseph, which become twelve constellations of the sky when you include him. Which also aligns with the creation we see in Genesis 1, because on the fourth day (fourth generation, meaning Jacob, who is Israel, his wife, and his twelve children) the lights of the sun, moon, and stars are formed. Generation 1 is Abraham & Sarah, generation 2 is Isaac and Rebekah, generation 3 is Jacob and Rachel, and generation 4 is Joseph and his brethren.
Genesis 1
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
18 And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.
19 And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.
I provided you with this explanation so that you can understand the separation of the sun and the moon as their own individuals, meaning they each have their own light. The light of the sun is not radiating off of a terrestrial rock to create moonlight, the moon is a light itself. Hence why the bible constantly states that throughout every depiction of the moon, to provide you with a truth that the world does not.
Isaiah 30
26 Moreover the light of the moon shall be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun shall be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD bindeth up the breach of his people, and healeth the stroke of their wound.
Ezekiel 32
7 And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.
Matthew 24
29 And when I shall put thee out, I will cover the heaven, and make the stars thereof dark; I will cover the sun with a cloud, and the moon shall not give her light.
Do you see how the light of the moon is possessive, meaning the moon herself is providing the light she omits. As we saw earlier in Genesis 1,
16 And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.
The scriptures are clearly showing us that the sun is a light, and the moon is a light, even providing a numerical value of two distinct lights. Additionally, 1 Corinthians 15 explains the difference between a celestial body and a terrestrial body to further distinguish these truths.
38 But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed his own body.
39 All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh of men, another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and another of birds.
40 There are also celestial bodies, and bodies terrestrial: but the glory of the celestial is one, and the glory of the terrestrial is another.
41 There is one glory of the sun, and another glory of the moon, and another glory of the stars: for one star differeth from another star in glory.
Notice the difference between a body of flesh (terrestrial, of the earth), as opposed to a celestial body. A celestial body possesses an external glory of light, associating the sun, moon, and stars, all with states of celestial glory. If the moon were a terrestrial object, such as a physical rock, it would have been categorized as so because the bible provides that distinction in these very verses.
Part 3 - The Ice Wall
Section 1: A Compass
This section will specifically cover the ice wall in which the habitable part of the earth is described. However, I do want to state that I believe the earth is much larger than the visibly unfrozen circle that we inhabit, which I will describe further as I continue our section on the moon. To begin, I will need to paint a picture for you of what the flat earth actually looks like, but I would like to point out one verse from Proverbs 8 first,
31 Rejoicing in the habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men.
For the bible to use the word “habitable”, it means there are parts of the earth that are not habitable. And I do not mean a small obscure island, or the site of a volcano, but full frozen land masses that are not habitable for man or beast. For now, we will think of this as the land beyond the ice wall, but we will utilize the descriptions of the tetherball court above to explain why this is so. If the sun travels in a circuit above the habitable portion of the earth, it would encompass the only areas of land that could grow naturally. As we see in Deuteronomy 33,
14 And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,
The sun and moon are a necessary part of our environment which are instrumental in bringing forth the fruit and materials of the land we occupy. One example being plants, which require the sun for photosynthesis to grow, along with all the byproducts of that interaction (such as, oxygen formation). However, as you learned above, the sun travels a very specific route year after year and thus there will be an outer limit of the land over which the sun passes. This we will call “outer darkness”, as described in Matthew 25,
30 And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
There must be a portion of land that the sun’s light cannot reach unto, and that land would be the coldest part of the earth due to the absence of heat. That is how the ice is formed around the earth, created by an outline of the circuit in which the sun travels. Now that we have this synopsis, we can get into the biblical descriptions of the wall itself.
Section 2: Ends of the Earth
One important factor to consider when contemplating the shape of the earth is that if the earth were a globe, it would have no ends. What I mean by this is that it would be biblically considered continuous, something you could go around and around without ever reaching an endpoint where you would have to turn back. However, the bible speaks often of the “ends of the earth”, implying that the world we live upon does have clear stopping points.
Deuteronomy 13
7 Namely, of the gods of the people which are round about you, nigh unto thee, or far off from thee, from the one end of the earth even unto the other end of the earth;
Deuteronomy 28
49 The LORD shall bring a nation against thee from far, from the end of the earth, as swift as the eagle flieth; a nation whose tongue thou shalt not understand;
Additionally, if the earth were a globe, the visibility to see the entire earth from a singular location would be impossible. You cannot view all sides of a ball from one direction, you would need multiple view points. However, Job 28 states,
24 For he looketh to the ends of the earth, and seeth under the whole heaven;
To see the ends of the earth is to be able to view the entire picture from under heaven, a view that requires a flat surface to see in its entirety. There are many verses that imply a tent like structure to the earth, as you would set a poll (like north pole) in the center of the magnetic disk orientate the sky (the tabernacle) over the flat earth.
Psalm 19
4 Their line is gone out through all the earth, and their words to the end of the world. In them hath he set a tabernacle for the sun,
Lastly, the word line is being used to describe the instrument by which the earth can be measured to its natural end, with the tabernacle of the sky to hold the sun within its court (like the tetherball example from Part 1 - The Sun).
We also see in the words “stretched” and “spread” being used to describe the earth and heaven upon a foundation, as you stretch out a blanket over a bed.
Psalm 136
6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
Isaiah 42
5 Thus saith God the LORD, he that created the heavens, and stretched them out; he that spread forth the earth, and that which cometh out of it; he that giveth breath unto the people upon it, and spirit to them that walk therein:
Isaiah 44
24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
Isaiah 51
13 And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?
Zechariah 12
1 The burden of the word of the LORD for Israel, saith the LORD, which stretcheth forth the heavens, and layeth the foundation of the earth, and formeth the spirit of man within him.
Isaiah 28
20 For the bed is shorter than that a man can stretch himself on it: and the covering narrower than that he can wrap himself in it.
Amos 6
4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
If the earth were a globe, the word wrapped would be used, because it is used in the context of a head (which is the shape of a globe, or ball) as you will see below.
1 Kings 19
13 And it was so, when Elijah heard it, that he wrapped his face in his mantle, and went out, and stood in the entering in of the cave. And, behold, there came a voice unto him, and said, What doest thou here, Elijah?
Jonah 1
25 The waters compassed me about, even to the soul: the depth closed me round about, the weeds were wrapped about my head.
Section 3: The Wall
Now that we have these examples above, let’s see if there are any verses that portray an ice wall in the bible.
One of the best instances of this description can be found in Job 38 which says,
8 Or who shut up the sea with doors, when it brake forth, as if it had issued out of the womb?
9 When I made the cloud the garment thereof, and thick darkness a swaddlingband for it,
10 And brake up for it my decreed place, and set bars and doors,
11 And said, Hitherto shalt thou come, but no further: and here shall thy proud waves be stayed?
12 Hast thou commanded the morning since thy days; and caused the dayspring to know his place;
13 That it might take hold of the ends of the earth, that the wicked might be shaken out of it?
14 It is turned as clay to the seal; and they stand as a garment.
These verses essentially explain everything I have been showing you in one concise chapter. First, the bible states that the sea is shut up with doors, to keep it from breaking forth or overflowing. This depicts the ice wall perfectly, because that is its exact purpose, to hold the waters within the circle of the earth. Secondly, the bible states that the thick darkness is a swaddling band for it, meaning the “outer darkness” circularly encompasses the ends of the earth, as a swaddling band would a child. Which aligns with what I mentioned to you earlier from Matthew 25.
Then verses 10, 11, 12 and 13 further prove these points by illustrating the ice being broken up by the heat to the of the sun’s circuit. Described in the morning and dayspring knowing his place, the decreed outer limits of the sun’s rays creating the bars and doors that stay the waves of the oceans. Further shown when stating this circuit is what takes hold of the ends of the earth, even explaining that the wicked might be shaken out, which is something you would not mention if the earth was spinning continuously.
Lastly, we see in verse 14 the bible says that the ends of the earth are turned as clay to the seal, standing as a garment. The word seal is used to describe the melted wax used for a king to seal a letter with his ring, as Esther 8 says,
8 Write ye also for the Jews, as it liketh you, in the king's name, and seal it with the king's ring: for the writing which is written in the king's name, and sealed with the king's ring, may no man reverse.
10 And he wrote in the king Ahasuerus' name, and sealed it with the king's ring, and sent letters by posts on horseback, and riders on mules, camels, and young dromedaries:
This gives us the imagery that the bible is trying to convey a circular shape as a ring, that is pressed down into clay (the earth), with the ends of the earth standing as a garment (the outer edges of the ring creating a higher wall around the pressed point).
Section 4: The Four Corners Of The Earth
There is a commonly known illustration within the bible that speaks of the four corners of the earth. This description has caused many “Christians” and “flat-earthers” to believe that the earth is situated on some sort of square platform like the image you can see below. However, the misinformation only comes from people forgetting to compare the bible with the bible, as 1 Corinthians 2 says,
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
To compare spiritual explanations with spiritual explanations is the only way to truly understand the meaning of words within scripture. So allow me to show you a few examples of the four corners of the earth, then I will define the word corner for you.
Isaiah 11
12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.
Ezekiel 7
2 Also, thou son of man, thus saith the Lord GOD unto the land of Israel; An end, the end is come upon the four corners of the land.
Revelation 7
1 And after these things I saw four angels standing on the four corners of the earth, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree.
All of these verses are describing the earth and referencing the fact that it has four corners, so how does that fit into our circular description that I have been portraying for you? Well let’s read two examples from Leviticus to give us a better understanding of a biblical corner.
Leviticus 19
27 Ye shall not round the corners of your heads, neither shalt thou mar the corners of thy beard.
Leviticus 21
5 They shall not make baldness upon their head, neither shall they shave off the corner of their beard, nor make any cuttings in their flesh.
From both of these examples we see the word corner being used to depict a rounded edge, as you would see on a circle, and not a right-angle like you would see on a square. Additionally, we see in other verses throughout scripture, four corners being depicted with rings (circular objects) set into them.
Exodus 25
12 And thou shalt cast four rings of gold for it, and put them in the four corners thereof; and two rings shall be in the one side of it, and two rings in the other side of it.
Exodus 37
13 And he cast for it four rings of gold, and put the rings upon the four corners that were in the four feet thereof.
These four corners are describing the setting location for the four lobes of the brain, each golden ring to house a lobe in itself. That is why Job 1 references the four corners of a house, because it is describing the mind.
19 And, behold, there came a great wind from the wilderness, and smote the four corners of the house, and it fell upon the young men, and they are dead; and I only am escaped alone to tell thee.
The true description of the four corners of the earth would be better explained as four quadrants of a circle, like a pie graph with 25% circled in each area. That is why the bible constantly references the “four winds” of heaven because it is the four quarters of the brain, each with its own spirit (wind, like John 3) and thought pattern. Which explains Revelation 7 above, mentioning four angels on (meaning situated in) the four corners, holding the four winds.
Jeremiah 49
36 And upon Elam will I bring the four winds from the four quarters of heaven, and will scatter them toward all those winds; and there shall be no nation whither the outcasts of Elam shall not come.
This also ties into our previous description of the visible sky being portrayed as a tent or a sheet, because we have a few examples of a sheet knit at the four corners.
Acts 10
11 And saw heaven opened, and a certain vessel descending upon him, as it had been a great sheet knit at the four corners, and let down to the earth:
Part 4 - The Worlds
Section 1: Past, Present, & Future
One term that always seems to confuse both believers and non-believers alike, is the term “worlds” in the bible. By secular definition it seems to denote a multiplicity of different types of earths, or what people call “planets”, yet we know that planets are lights like the moon (as seen in my blog post The Seven “Planets”). The discrepancy comes from so-called pastors and teachers not allowing the word of God to define itself, as 1 Corinthians 2 says,
12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.
14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
When you choose to exclusively use man’s natural definitions for spiritual terms, you will fall into the traps of those words set by those who define them. But I will prove to you using the bible to explain what the term “worlds” means so that it may expound upon itself. There are two instances when this word is used, and both are from the book of Hebrews.
Hebrews 1
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds;
Hebrews 11
3 Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
Both of these verses end up defining each other in a sense, where we see that the spoken word of God is what makes the worlds. Meaning, a thing which cannot be seen, makes that which can be seen, the spiritual defines the physical. But one thing many Christians can understand is, the bible is the record for the past, present, and future, encompassing all of history within its scriptures. And now I will show you that these worlds must be explaining spiritual concepts, rather than physical locations.
In order to define the term “worlds” we should look up the instances of where the word “world” is used for more spiritual references. But more specifically, we should look up places that can explain the term world in a plural context, because it is being used that way in the book of Hebrews. The only way to do this, is to differentiate the term from itself using the given adjectives within the bible. For example, if you had to find a man, the best way to do so would be to find additional descriptions. Rather than just looking for any “man”, find out if you’re looking for a; “tall man”, “heavy man”, or “old man” to narrow your searches. As shown below.
2 Peter 2
5 And spared not the old world, but saved Noah the eighth person, a preacher of righteousness, bringing in the flood upon the world of the ungodly;
Titus 2
12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;
Hebrews 2
5 For unto the angels hath he not put in subjection the world to come, whereof we speak.
As you can see, I have provided three separate instances where the word “world” is used, and the one connecting theme amongst their differences is that they all reference time. First we have “the old world”, then “this present world”, and lastly, “the world to come”, being shown in the same book of Hebrews where the original plural “worlds” was derived. Therefore, we can conclude that the word “worlds” was used to reference the world before the flood, the world we live in now, and the world we will live in for the future, while all speaking of the same exact earth. It is referencing the time periods, or “ages” of man, for each spiritual regeneration, and is not speaking of different terrestrial “planets”.
Part 5 - The Pillars
A typical point that “flat-earthers” like to bring up about the world is this description of pillars within the bible, as if they believe the earth is upon stilts. But before I show you the true definition of a pillar of the earth, I need to show you an important description about the earth being stationary.
We will look at the word set The word set means fixed within a location, like you would set a train on a railroad. The stars are set in their circuits to rotate around the earth from above, and not for us to rotate through on the earth through the stars.
Genesis 1
17 And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,
