And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. (Genesis 11:1-5)
The first book of the Bible, Genesis , records the first great apostasy of virtually all of the people of the world against the Most High God. He had commanded them to spread out and populate the earth, but under the leadership of men like NimRod (lit "Let us Rebel"), mankind had other ideas.
Rather than spreading out across the land, the inhabitants of the earth organized a collective effort, gathering around a three for project,
*They would build a city- (Governmental unity)
*They would build a Tower (Religious Unity)
*they would make a name for themselves ( redefinition of man himself)
The fact that all of mankind was in such complete unity in this project, caught God's attention, and resulted in a complete and shattering judgment upon all men, which we have never recovered from to this day.
The separation of language brought about the different nations, and profoundly divided the human race. There could be no world unity, no humanistic projects, no one world Government or religion, all of that became impossible as a result of the Divine intervention.
God divided the nations for his own reasons,
When the most High divided to the nations their inheritance, when he separated the sons of Adam, he set the bounds of the people according to the number of the children of Israel.(Deuteronomy 32:8)
God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands; Neither is worshipped with men's hands, as though he needed any thing, seeing he giveth to all life, and breath, and all things; And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed, and the bounds of their habitation; That they should seek the Lord, if haply they might feel after him, and find him, though he be not far from every one of us: (Acts 17:24-27)
In the modern world, there is a serious attempt t reverse the so called "Babel effect" and to bring about a world unity. Most of the impetus for this has arisen from Western political class, Particularly from European, American and British intellectuals.
Of course the last century bore sad witness to the full expression of the Communistic International enterprise, which claimed a hundred million deaths, enslaved untold millions, ruined the economies of more than half of the planet, ad has proven a crippling, abject , bloody failure everywhere it is tried.
World War 2 in particular was centered around two factions of this heresy, as the National Socialist(Nazi) front engaged in an sic death struggle with the USSR,(Communist Russia) which killed tens of millions and enslaved Eastern Europe.
But out of the ashes and rubble of World Wars 1 and 2, the Western World has decided that for the sake of world peace, Nationalism has to go, and is involved in a multilevel attempt to repeat the Babel transgression, by dissolving national boundaries and seeking to create a one world Government, economy, and ultimately a united world religion.
First, after World War 1 came the failed League of Nations, something our President Woodrow Wilson was very intent upon, but America was still very Judeo Christian and balked at being a part of a World Government. Without American Support the League of Nations proved impotent to stop Hitler and prevent World War 2.
After World War two, the United Nations was created. Originally it featured 51 nations, but now has 193. For the first time ever, the various prophecies foretelling of a congress of all nations acting in concert against the interests of God, were capable of fulfillment;
For, behold, in those days, and in that time, when I shall bring again the captivity of Judah and Jerusalem,I will also gather all nations, and will bring them down into the valley of Jehoshaphat, and will plead with them there for my people and for my heritage Israel, whom they have scattered among the nations, and parted my land. And they have cast lots for my people; and have given a boy for an harlot, and sold a girl for wine, that they might drink. (Joel 3:1-3)
When in all of history did all nations gather to cast lots(vote for or against) Israel? Only since 1948 Ad.
And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it.(Zechariah 12:3)
It is through the United nations, a western concept and construction, that all nations of the World gather to come against Israel ,Jerusalem and Judea.
Another startling manifestation of the Western Universalistic yearning is the European Union.
Originally the European Union, or club of Rome, was sold as a common economic market, but has taken on a life of itself, engulfing the formerly prosperous and relatively strong Western European nations, into an antidemocratic alliance, binding these Western nations with several Eastern European countries, and submitting the various National Governments and economies to faceless , unelected Buearocrats usually n Brussells and or Germany.
The latest manifestation of this control is the insistence by central European planners, upon the acceptance of millions of Muslim refugees from all over black Africa, Iraq, Syria and other war torn and poverty stricken areas of the world. This insane plan has wreaked havoc on formerly peaceful and relatively crime free places such as Sweden(now known as the Rape capitol of the World), Germany, France and Belgium. Vast areas of these formerly European lands are now considered "no go" areas off limits t all but the Muslims who have entered Europe's open borders to inhabit them.
I believe that the European Union may well collapse, from it's present form, Brexit showed the world that the common people on the street do not want to be in the EU, and would vote themselves out of it if possible. The forced multiculturalism has proven to be a destabilizing disaster, so also the removal of interior borders, (many of which are rapidly being re-erected).
Then there is the European Union inspired Mediterranean Neighborhood project, a unity treaty encompassing all the nations around the Mediterranean. This catches the Bible Reader's attention because it covers a virtual Roman Empire part 2.
The Multi Cultural experiment has failed but the Nihilistic , antiChristian Atheists who imposed it are still in power.
I believe that the EU may yet dissolve but only to be re-formulated into something described in the book of Revelation as a Beast, which rises out of the Sea,
And I stood upon the sand of the sea, and saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the name of blasphemy. And the beast which I saw was like unto a leopard, and his feet were as the feet of a bear, and his mouth as the mouth of a lion: and the dragon gave him his power, and his seat, and great authority. And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.(Revelation 13:1-3)
Thus the final expression of Western hegemony will soon emerge, the Beast with ten Horns, will be the same as the feet with ten toes, seen by Daniel. Ten Kings shall arise out of it, and from among them, a little Horn, a beast, a man of sin and perdition shall arise, till the Lord smites him with the breath of his mouth and by the brightness of His soon coming! Maranatha Jesus !
Well that's certainly as clear as mud. Thanks, quite helpful.
Marathon Oil!
Thanks Humble, you are always helpful. This article is part of a series which discussed the prophecy of Daniel 2 which discuss s the prophecy of the ten toes of the statue of a man. I see why the way that sentence went would be murky, thanks for the input and for the constant vigilance against blog pimping...your friend pas Bill
You make it quite difficult for me to be nasty to you
when you respond so cordially. Please knock that off.
Truth that most want no part of. I give this Biblical argument against the manufactured migration to anyone I talk to about it and it’s blank stares, lol.
I see the Babel judgment as one of the major events in humanity. As your piece says, man has not changed one bit since, why would God’s edict of separation?
I had already come to the conclusion on my own that globalism was contrary to the principles set forth by God in his actions against Babel.
God’s wisdom never ceases to amaze me that such a fundamental principle was established so long ago, and that Satan works in the world today to defy God’s decree. Globalism is poison, and God pointed that out long, long ago.
Ok I will try...@#$%@#^@#%$^@& !
Pray for insight pridefulgunner.
Thanks.
God created borders and nations.
Evil man craves a one world gov’t with God tossed aside.
They’ll get it for a season.
Yeah, I'll get right on that... looking to stop being so ignorant about all them toes.
Pretty sure the multiple horn reference is about that jackass
to the east of me that has them train horns on top of his truck
and I hope he falls in a hole.. and his truck on top of him.
Marinara.
Amen.
