    As farcical as was the building of the tower of Babel, it is not one wit more so than for any man to attempt to gain heaven by his own efforts or good works.

    “THE FOLLY OF MAN” "Now the whole earth had one language and 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. "Then they said to one another, "Come, let us make bricks and bake them thoroughly." They had brick ...read more

    Only God has the right to make a name for us. Abraham submitted and was exalted, the people of Babel exalted and were humbled.

    The Humility of Abraham or Pride of Babel I want to start by looking at Isaiah 57: 15: For thus says the High and Lofty One who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy: I dwell in the high and holy place, with him who has a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to ...read more

    God gives confusion when we act out of pride; but He wants in His church to reconcile all of us to one another, and does so through the model of the Christ of the cross.

    I am becoming an expert in baby talk. Thanks to two young granddaughters, I am learning all over again the special language of infants. What their tiny mouths utter is not nonsense. They have their own language. Just because I have become accustomed to the language of the adult world – ...read more

    The people had their own plans about building the tower of Babel, but God is the one that determined their outcome.

    Genesis 11:1-9 August 22, 1999 Man makes plans, but God directs the paths. Man makes plans . . . 1. The people were unified – unity is a good thing.

    What are we building our lives toward?

    For several years, an unfinished building, which looked like it was to be a hotel, stood along Interstate 69 south of Fort Wayne, I believe at one of the Marion exits.

    The bible is a book filled with numerical significance, as validated by this text.

    The September 11, experience was an awakening experience for entire U.S. and its allies. Although it surprised a relax world, it did not catch our God by surprise. In an attempt to search the bible for illumination relative to its numerical relevance, I turned to Genesis chapter 11:1-9 and ...read more

    Communication with God, as well as others, is important. God’s purpose must become our purpose.

    E=mc2, but W.W.J.D.? The disciples, despite the presence of the Holy Spirit, were misunderstood. They were perceived, because of their exuberant behavior, as being loaded. Sauced. Drunk. How rare it is to experience real communication. The kind of communication where every word is ...read more
