This passage is found in page 6 of my NKJV Bible, page 7 of my NASB Bible, page 12 of my VOICE copy, and pages 12-13 of my Amplified Bible (Classic Edition) copy. From it, I can only guess why so many people were interested in building a tower reaching to the heavens. But it doesn’t matter because they wouldn’t have been able to breathe when they got to a certain altitude, 25,000 feet above sea level, as a matter of fact. Keep in mind this was before the invention of oxygen tanks and airplanes.
Anyway, you can read my previous note I made on here two weeks ago concerning my thoughts on this. In the meantime, though, do you think the same is happening today? I can’t imagine if it is or not, but I do know that our world is falling apart, and because people don’t trust Jesus, they’re relying on politicians instead, especially in the horrid religion of Trumpism… and what many other prominent people in power have done in the past. The U.S. is the new Babylon indeed. While I pray for revival here in this nation and across the world, I don’t think I can prevent the civilization from going up in arms, and even if Bernie Sanders gets elected next year, it will be too late, seeing that the antichrist spirit will have already taken the church so that more people would reject Christ — I’m reminded of Revelation 18:4. I wrote about that last fall in my notebook; it’s saying the same thing I’m writing on now. But I didn’t know that house churches would spring up like crazy, yet I’m glad they have been. I’ve wanted to go to a house church in northeast Phoenix called Relentless Love Church, and I had gone periodically over the last three years — though it shut down last year, it’s now back in operation. But it looks like it’ll be even more important, because the traditional church format is on its way out. I can go there after I age out of the Two Rivers Awaken ministry in a few years (the 30-somethings don’t normally go there). They meet on Thursdays, but I might be able to make it out there once a month or so.
I have nothing else to say on this passage, so I’ll be back soon with another post on this chapter 😁
