You're leaning on your own wisdom and basing your trust on your own interpretation of God's Word.
Cherry picked interpretations at that.

Isaiah 40:21-23 KJV
21) Have ye not known? have ye not heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have ye not understood from the foundations of the earth?
22) 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:
23) That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.

Isaiah 11:12 KJV
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.

Is the earth a circle? Is it a square? Or is it exactly as it appears, and these are metaphors?

Much love!

OK = Food for Thought

Now THINK

The supposed 'photo' of the earth from the moon is shows the earth approximately the SAME size as the moon when viewed from the earth.
Which photo and what camera equipment was used? You do know there are many different types of camera lenses, some that can zoom in quite a ways, right? What are you actually comparing?

You should know that perspectives can be used to "show" many things, but it's just your viewing angle and distance. You do know that, right?

Food for your thought;

The sun appears the same diameter when at the horizon, and overhead, indicating it does not vary noticeably in it's distance to the viewer, indicating the truth of the earth's orbit around the sun.

If the sun were small, circling over a flat earth, it would be smaller when seen from farther away, and larger when seen closer. Yet it appears the same size regardless, showing the error of flat earthers, and showing the truth of the globe earth.

But, you don't. You're selecting the verse that supports your belief and ignoring the other. So, which is it, is the earth round or square?
We know because HE KNOWs = from ABOVE

From Above
is the Message of Love
Came down from Above
In the Form of a Dove

Resting on Him
Who is The Cure from sin
The Dove did Rest
In the Place of God's Nest
HE who Came from God's Breast

For you and for me
there is only One TREE
that if we eat from
we can share in the TREE of Eternity

Same view from earth to the moon as from the moon to earth.

Get that wrong and you've been duped by NASA/satanists

Once again you reply but avoiding the point. So why do you bother? Is it that you want to appear to be responding without being required to give an intelligent reply?

Where are the corners of the earth on a ball? And where is the circle?

I'd advise taking the scripture, which IS the Word of God, literally. If He says the earth has a circle and has corners, then take it for what it says and research it apart from the world's so-called "science." Do your own research and ask HIM. He's the Author and the Creator .....HE KNOWS.

I could easily see how the earth could have both a circle and corners. You can set a circle inside a square, for instance.

Will you disregard God's Word altogether because it doesn't fit your worldly view? I'll take God's Word over the satanic organization called NASA, every single day.

Your complete avoidance in answering a simple question based on the Bible strongly suggests you know that the Bible is only speaking metaphorically when it mentions the earth as being a circle and implying it’s square. Your response is intellectually dishonest and hypocrisy.

That's your problem, and it really is a problem for you. I've already acknowledged that such speech is metaphorical, not to mention that a sphere appears as a circle on a two dimensional plane.

I'd advise taking the scripture, which IS the Word of God, literally.
But you don't, that is the problem. At least you don't understand what it means to take it literally.

If He says the earth has a circle and has corners, then take it for what it says and research it apart from the world's so-called "science." Do your own research and ask HIM. He's the Author and the Creator .....HE KNOWS.

I could easily see how the earth could have both a circle and corners. You can set a circle inside a square, for instance.
This is nonsensical. A circle, by definition, does not and cannot have corners. Either the earth is a circle or it is square (or something else), but it cannot be both. You want it to have both because your personal interpretation of the Bible demands it, and in so doing, you dishonour God by not loving him with all your mind.

Will you disregard God's Word altogether because it doesn't fit your worldly view?
There is nothing at all worldly about my view.

I'll take God's Word over the satanic organization called NASA, every single day.
You mean that you'll take your personal interpretation of God's Word over NASA, every single day. That's what you're saying.

How is the earth about the same size as the moon?

Because that photo never happened from the moon nor from orbiting the moon.

The Four Angels is even more evidence of Genesis.

If the earth were a globe, there would need to be eight angels to cover the 'globe' earth when placed within the cube.

All of mankind dwells on the surface/circle of the earth.
Four angels covers the "four corners" of the circle/surface of earth.

North South East West are the Four Direction upon the surface of the earth.

Only when we cover the outside of the circle.

Someone can draw a circle and then place the directions in straight lines from the center.
