No, one of their core arguments is that language in the bible heavily implies that the earth is flat. Nevermind that the bible is a collection of stories from uneducated iron-age fanatics…
There’s nothing in the Bible that implies the earth is flat… but most people who use the Bible to excuse their behavior don’t actually read it, so it’s not wild to hear they think the Bible is the basis for their beliefs.
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.
There is actually plenty of language in the bible that implies a flat earth. I found these examples with 5 minutes of searching.
Four corners of the earth usually refers to the cardinal directions, north, east, south, west. It doesn’t mean there are actual corners at the edge of a plane.

Well sure, but only if you interpret it like a reasonable person, which they don’t.
I thought flat earthers claim the earth is a disc (which has no corners)?
Like any good religious nut, their arguments are full of contradictions.
