“It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:”
King James Version (KJV)

This passage in the bible told us that the earth was round and that God stretches the heavens, which we now know that the universe is expanding faster and faster, not slowing down, as an explosion would do, centuries before science would eventually agree that the earth was round. Scientist like Bruno were burned at the stake for even suggesting that the earth was round and that it was not the center of the universe, but Isaiah prophesied it thousands of years ago, before there were telescopes, and orbiting satellites. Just goes to show how far modern science will go to try to avoid, and recognize the teachings of the Bible. Now scientists are really pushing the fact that there is no God, and that there is no need for a God in any religion. They now say that physics and modern astronomy can prove that there is no need for a God, and that all of the complex life, atoms, and DNA were just random accidents over millions of years of evolution, even though that idea completely violates the laws of entropy, Mendele 's laws, and the fact that it has been proven that for all of this to be created by accident has the odds of 10 to the 20th power of happening by accident, and all mathematicians agree that 10 to the 20th power is a mathematical impossibility.

I think Isaiah 40:22 showing us creating or beginning of earth.WHY GOD HIDDEN this thing from us it is all about faith in god.if god is not know about earth why his prophecy is 100 correct about future.only keep faith in LORD.

700 before Christ and the inspired word of God states plainly for all to see, the Earth is round and this is proven only by Meggelan 2,200 years later. Read this and weep unbelievers and Lefties, for our God reveals the truth inherent in His word.

If the Earth is spherical So why the church refuse this Idea... and fight to prove that the Earth is Flat --- Galileo also was damned when we claimed that the Earth is spherical ... so Circle is not a sphere ... thanx

@jeff:
The early church backed up what was popular and would give the most power a lot of the times. Why do you think that Martin Luther was so outraged that he nailed a letter to the door of the church. Many people understood the false and innapropriate things the church began doing. The "churches" were not following as christ commanded but as sinners wanting personal gain of Christ. That is were puritans came about, looking to KNOW God, not to know of God.

Towards bob wierdsma's comment. If that was true why did the church create so much trouble when people claimed the world was not flat?

According to ChristianAnswers.net circle can be understood either as a circle or a sphere. It is modern skeptics who have misunderstood this and twisted to suit their own biases.

The earth is most certainly NOT a circle.

Yeah the earth is round.
The Romans knew too the earth was round, a round plate. No further comment needed.
