    The Tower Of Babel And The Church

    Contributed by Larry Turner on Jan 29, 2014
     | 10,942 views

    Two groups of people with more in common than we admit.

    I am a big fan of the cartoon script Charlie Brown. I have been since my teenage years. I always seemed to associate myself to poor old Charlie Brown who was forever asking the question “Why me?” In a Peanuts cartoon, Lucy demands that Linus change TV channels and then threatens him ...read more

     | 3,923 views

    Part 12 of this series examines the rebellion at the Tower of Babel with a direct link to the same rebellion that we see in the faith today. Our desire must be to gather to worship the Lord, in everything that we do.

    Discovering Genesis, Part 12 Genesis 11:1-9 Introduction - Last week we concluded the life of Noah and how he found favor with God - His life was one of total submission; and he lived FOR God, not himself - What we saw is that Noah lived and left behind him a legacy for his sons - IMP APP: ...read more

    The TOWER of BABEL represents man’s effort without God. The Builders of Shinar failed in their attempt tried to reach heaven through human effort. We too will fail if we believe that spiritual enlightenment comes through human effort. The only way to k

    The battle for our worship is a battle that draws our flesh and its desire to exert itself over God. The flesh demands that it be stroked, satisfied and honored. The inner part of our being cries out for independence. From our earliest days we desire to do things for ourselves. But we cannot ...read more

    What Have We Learned?

    Contributed by Curry Pikkaart on Sep 13, 2011
     | 3,473 views

    What have we learned in the 10 years since the 9-11 attackes on America?

    “What have We Learned?” Gen. 11:1-9; Prov. 18:10 It seems like such an ancient, “Once upon a time” sort of story – an egotistical nation so advanced and industrious that she thinks she can do what she wants. So she builds a tower to represent her dominion over the ...read more

    God intervenes in the course of mankind only when man reaches a point of disobedience, disregard and damage.

    * Tomorrow, we will celebrate 235 years since some great men signed a document which could have been their very death warrant. * That document begins with “We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable ...read more

    The Babylonian Theme Series

    Contributed by Ed Vasicek on Jul 23, 2012
     | 5,960 views

    Babylon represents mankind uniting to assert themselves against God; it is about who has the power and control, God or man?

    The Babylonian Theme 1. Some things go back a long way: A little boy opened the big and old family Bible with fascination, looking at the old pages as he turned them. Then something fell out, and he picked it up and looked at it closely. It was an old leaf from a tree that had been pressed in ...read more

    God dealing the the people at the tower of babble is how much that God hates pride and disobedience.

    Babblers of faith Genesis chapter 11:1-11:13 Introduction- Turn with me to Genesis chapter 11:1-13 This morning we will look at man’s attempt to hide from God, be like God, take God off his rightful throne, sin, and the consequences of those actions.

    God Pours Out His Spirit

    On Pentecost, God reversed the process of division and confusion around the tower of Babel, as he poured out his Spirit. The Spirit gave the disciples words of praise and proclamation to speak in languages that all could understand. How does that Spirit work today in our lives and churches?

    [Sermon preached on Pentecost (Whit Sunday) / 3rd year, ELCF Lectionary] Last Tuesday in our Bible study group, we studied the story about the first Christian Pentecost from Acts 2. It was a refreshing experience to hear someone read some verses in Chinese. Most of us could not understand them, ...read more

     | 10,631 views

    There are two ways to try build God's House, there is a right way, the Bethel Model, or the wrong way, the Babel Model.

    TWO WAYS OF BUILDING GOD'S HOUSE. The Babel Model - the wrong way! Genesis 11:1-9 Now the whole earth had one language and one speech.2 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.3 Then they said to one another, “Come, ...read more

    God’s judgment in Genesis 11:1-9 teaches us that God overrules all human challenges to his sovereign kingship.

    Scripture Today, we conclude a series of sermons on Genesis 1-11 that I am calling, “In the Beginning.” I am preaching only six sermons on these 11 chapters.

     | 11,326 views

    Babel speaks of "confusion", and is a byword for all that is wrong with the world. Only Pentecost could bring order.

    A PATH FROM BABEL TO PENTECOST. Genesis 11:1-9. The height of our tallest building does not necessarily impress God: He has to “come down” even to see it (Genesis 11:5). Babel - to the Babylonians - spoke of ‘the gateway to the gods’: and yet man was there found still aspiring to get where he ...read more

    The 4th Sermon in "Our Favorite O.T. Stories." The point of the story of the Tower of Babel is: You are never so successful that you have outgrown your need for God. For in the end it is salvation that matters.

    No Limits Introduction In taking on this task of going through the important Old Testament stories, I have really had to wrestle with what stories to include and which ones to skip. And I was tempted to skip the story of the Tower of Babel. But I just couldn’t. Partially because it is ...read more

    Is this a true story? (Hint: yes) And why did God include it in the Bible?

    OPEN: Several years ago, there was a tiny village in Scotland called “Lost.” It’s a quaint name for a quaint little village… but they had a problem. Lost kept losing their sign. A local official explained, "For many years now, the sign has continually been taken because all it says on it is ...read more

    When Unity Becomes Toxic

    Contributed by Kerry Haynes on Jun 9, 2019

    The stories of the Tower of Babel and Pentecost teach us to: 1. Guard against prideful uniformity. 2. Cherish diversity as God's gift, and 3. Look to Christ as the source of our unity

    Genesis 11:1-9 When Unity Becomes Toxic We tend to think of unity as a good thing. Military units aspire for unity. People in public office wish for it. Marriages hope for it. Churches aspire for it. Yet, sometimes supposed unity masks for uniformity, and can quickly slip into pride and ...read more
