TOWER OF FAITH versus Tower of Babel?
At the beginning of time, after the flood, all people on this earth
spoke the same language and were of a single accord when they sought to get to
heaven by building the tower of Babel. But they did not succeed because when
the Lord came down and saw the city and tower of Babel being built, he gave the
people of the earth different languages so they would not understand each other
and continue building the tower, and then he scattered them throughout to
inhabit the whole earth (Genesis 11:1–10).
Since the time that God confounded the people with different languages and scattered them to different regions of the earth, this world has developed tremendously throughout the passage of time. However, too many among us misconstrue, misuse, and otherwise misappropriate our differences to try to elevate themselves on the basis of religion, race, or riches, not realizing that none of these differences will matter when time comes to an end.
Notwithstanding the multiplicity of people on this earth based upon religion, race, and riches in this world, we must all face this fact: God being righteous has revealed to us the map to the hidden treasure so we can get to heaven, and yet people from all walks of life on this earth either are too weak, lack the will, or simply will not garner the strength to stand upright to build a TOWER OF FAITH to BELIEVE the word of God to BELIEVE in the ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD to take up the CROSS get to heaven at the end of time (John 1:1, 14; 3:15-16).
“[NO MAN HATH SEEN] God at any time; the [ONLY BEGOTTEN SON], which is in the bosom of the [FATHER], he hath declared him” (John 1:18).
“[FOR THERE IS ONE GOD, AND ONE MEDIATOR BETWEEN GOD AND MEN, THE MAN
CHRIST JESUS]: who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time”
(1 Timothy 2:5–6).
“[AND HE IS THE HEAD OF THE BODY, THE CHURCH: WHO IS THE BEGINNING, THE FIRSTBORN FROM THE DEAD]; that in all things he might have the preeminence. For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell” (Colossians 1:18–19).
Therefore, let us all keep in our hearts, minds, and souls focused unto SALVATION
through FAITH which is in Jesus Christ (2
Timothy 3:15).
“For ye are all the children of God by [FAITH IN CHRIST JESUS]. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise” (Galatians 3:24-29).
