Also I think its interesting to note, whether you're of the opinion the letters to the 7 churches represent seven different periods of time within the present church age or reflect the composite condition of the Body of Christ at the present time, that Jesus gives promises to the believers WITHIN the churches who overcome. Which means there are beleivers within the churches who do not overcome.

Hey its kind of interesting to compare the Tower of Babel to The New World Order/One World Government.

1. The people were one, and they had one language. (Genesis 11:6)

2. The Tower of Babel was built to reach heaven and exalt the name of the people above God. (Genesis 11:4)

3. The reason given for building the Tower of Babel was survival. (Genesis 11:4)
