The Flat Earth movement has grown over the last 5 years. I got swept up in it recently, but not as a Flat Earther; instead, as a defender of a globe/spherical Earth. Over the course of my defense of a globe/spherical Earth, I discovered there is a growing cohort of Christians that believe in a Flat Earth. These Christians believe in a Flat Earth because they believe in a literal translation of the Bible, despite the idioms, metaphors and contradictions in the Bible. There is also a group of Flat Earth Christians that believe in a Flat Earth because they don’t trust the government and prefer conspiracy theories about NASA, or they believe a globe/spherical Earth is a theory designed by Satan to hide God.

I argue that it is a Flat Earth that HIDES GOD. God performs miracles, and his power and wonder is beyond our understanding. Denying the science of a globe/spherical Earth minimizes the power and wonder of God. It plants a seed of doubt that may one day bear a poisonous fruit during times of chaos.
