An interesting thing about Babel.
God always ...Alan<br />An interesting thing about Babel.<br />God always had a plan (which He has continually repeated to mankind throughout history) and that plan was to create a Temple where He could dwell with His people - our part in that mandate (from Adam through to the Church) was to spread the presence and glory of God over the face of the earth, which we failed to do.<br />Babel became the ultimate rebellion because instead of building a temple that expanded outward to the nations, they built one that gathered the nations to their project (which was meant to be God's part! hence the "they will become like Us" - not that they will be God, but they will think that they were God!).<br />We are supposed to share and spread God to the nations, it is God who gathers the nations to Himself. Big difference; apostolic difference!<br /><br />Blessings bro, enjoying your postingsExtending Boundarieshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08157907233363080249noreply@blogger.com
