  God, I pray that you'll rescue us.
• 0:18
  Lord, I pray that you'll come, Father, and get your glory.
• 0:22
  I pray God that you'll be honored and well pleased by the
• 0:25
  reading of your text. We love you so much.
• 0:27
  Father, we thank you for the eternal words.
• 0:30
  We thank you for the weight of your glory.
• 0:32
  God the Shekinah glory. Father, you are holy, You are
• 0:36
  powerful, You are the Most High, You are high and lifted up above
• 0:40
  all of our circumstances. Lord, we fix our eyes upon you.
• 0:45
  We let the train of your robe fill the temple.
• 0:48
  Father, let us touch the hem of your garment and be healed
• 0:51
  today, for you are majestic. You are worthy to be praised.
• 0:57
  We thank you for your holy scriptures.
• 0:59
  We thank you that they are alive and active.
• 1:01
  We thank you that we have access into the holiest of holy places.
• 1:05
  We thank you, God, for ripping the veil from top to bottom so
• 1:10
  that we can come in. Lord, we look forward to the
• 1:14
  marriage supper of the Lamb. We look forward, God, for you to
• 1:18
  prepare a banquet for us in the presence of our enemy.
• 1:21
  Yeah, though we walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
• 1:25
  You were there with us. You comfort us, God.
• 1:27
  Your rod and your staff, God, are there to bind the enemy Lord
• 1:33
  from off of this time. Bind the enemy God from off of
• 1:36
  our lives, from off of our families.
• 1:38
  Lord, you are majestic. We love you.
• 1:40
  King Jesus, it's in your holy and precious and powerful name
• 1:44
  that I pray. Amen.
• 1:48
  Well, let's start in verse one. And the old earth was of one
• 1:52
  language and of 1 speech. And it came to pass as they
• 1:55
  journeyed from the east that they found a plain in the land
• 1:59
  of Shinar and they dwelt there. So we're going to see that this
• 2:03
  Nimrod is going to cause a revolt against a good and holy
• 2:09
  and awesome and amazing God. And he is going to try to
• 2:14
  manipulate the masses into turning their hearts away from
• 2:20
  God because they do not want to have to fear God.
• 2:24
  They do not want to have to listen to God.
• 2:26
  They do not want to have to live to live under his rules.
• 2:30
  And they want to build this waterproof tower up to the
• 2:34
  heavens so they can study the stars, so they can figure out if
• 2:37
  anything's going to happen, because God uses the stars and
• 2:44
  the planets above us to speak to us.
• 2:46
  And they are trying to get in to this occult practice of
• 2:54
  astrology. And they are wanting to usurp
• 2:59
  God's authority, and they're wanting to be their own gods.
• 3:04
  And Nimrod was the mastermind behind this satanic revolt. 3
• 3:11
  And they said to one another, Go, go to let us make brick and
• 3:15
  burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone,
• 3:18
  and slime had they for mortar. So this was a petroleum based
• 3:22
  product, the same that he used for the pitch over the ark, the
• 3:26
  same that Moses's mother pitched over the basket to keep it
• 3:32
  waterproof. And that is the purpose of the
• 3:34
  slime that they had made for. And they said, go to let us
• 3:38
  build a city up, let us build a city and a tower whose top may
• 3:43
  reach to heaven, and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered
• 3:47
  abroad upon the face of the whole earth.
• 3:49
  It's almost as if they had an inclination that God was going
• 3:55
  to already scatter them. And so they wanted this revolt
• 3:59
  to try to stay together, and they wanted to put their minds
• 4:02
  together and be of 1 accord. But God saw through it and he's
• 4:06
  going to do something about it. And you can see that the
• 4:10
  wickedness here where they're trying to make a name for
• 4:12
  themselves, and it's no different than the original sin.
• 4:16
  And you see the lust of the eyes, the lust of the flesh and
• 4:20
  the pride of life creep up already.
• 4:24
  And just because God had flooded the whole earth, the human
• 4:28
  nature doesn't change. We are sinful from birth,
• 4:31
  friends, and we radically need a Savior.
• 4:34
  We need to be made new. We need a new heart and a new
• 4:37
  mind. We need Jesus Christ's blood to
• 4:40
  cover us. And we need to know our worth in
• 4:43
  Jesus Christ. And that's the only way that
• 4:46
  mankind will ever be changed. If we're left to our own
• 4:49
  devices, we will self destruct 10 times out of 10.
• 4:55
  Five. And the Lord came down to see
• 4:56
  the city and the tower which the children of men built.
• 5:00
  So here comes Jesus Christ, another Christophany, and he's
• 5:04
  looking and he's inspecting much like he did back in Revelation
• 5:08
  whenever he was inspecting the churches.
• 5:10
  Here he is. He's inspecting this tower in
• 5:13
  this city and anytime you see a city pop up, it's rebellion.
• 5:19
  Friends, we are called to be sojourners, to go with the Lord
• 5:23
  calls us to anywhere in the whole world that the world that
• 5:28
  the Lord calls us to. That's where we go.
• 5:30
  Send me Lord 6 And the Lord said, behold, the people are
• 5:35
  one, and they have one language, and this they begin to do, and
• 5:40
  now nothing will be restrained from them which they have
• 5:43
  imagined to do. So here it is friends, you can
• 5:46
  see that God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Ghost
• 5:51
  three and one having a counsel. And they're saying, look at the
• 5:54
  humans. If they all put their minds
• 5:56
  together of 1 accord, there's nothing that will be impossible
• 6:00
  to them. And that is where we have
• 6:02
  arrived today with all of the introduction of the technology
• 6:07
  that we have and the ability to speak to each other real time
• 6:14
  and understand other languages real time.
• 6:17
  It is no different. And we see all of the
• 6:19
  advancements in the medical field, all the advancements
• 6:23
  friends in the industry, all the advancements in education, all
• 6:30
  the advancements. But there's a cost.
• 6:33
  There is a price to pay. And the price is we invent new
• 6:36
  ways of sinning against God. 7 go to let us go down and
• 6:45
  confound their language, that they may not understand one
• 6:48
  another's speech. There we see God the Father, God
• 6:51
  the Son, God the Holy Ghost. 3 and 1 coming to spread people
• 6:56
  across the earth and to break down the language and make every
• 7:02
  single one of them speak differently so they cannot
• 7:05
  understand themselves. And just as much as you did not
• 7:10
  create the circuits inside of your brain that tell each other
• 7:16
  what to do, this is the gift of God.
• 7:19
  Language is the gift of God, friends, and that is what you
• 7:23
  need to understand. Man did not invent language.
• 7:26
  God gave it to him. And here we can see that God, in
• 7:29
  this instance, he confounded them and made it to where they
• 7:34
  could not understand each other for thousands and thousands and
• 7:41
  thousands of years. And it's not until the last
• 7:46
  little bit of time that we have all come back to the same accord
• 7:50
  as we are today. 8 So the Lord scattered them abroad from there
• 7:54
  upon the face of all the earth, and they left off to build the
• 7:57
  city. So they did not finish building
• 8:00
  the city. And there are actually people
• 8:03
  who have tried to go out and find this mound that this
• 8:10
  ziggurat sat on in the plain of Shinar, and some have said that
• 8:15
  that would be the place that it is.
• 8:17
  But Needless to say, we know that this story is true.
• 8:20
  And it's not just figurative and it's not just a feel good, sound
• 8:27
  good story. This is a actual reality,
• 8:30
  friends, and we see that the condition of man's heart is
• 8:36
  rebellion against the holy God apart from a relationship with
• 8:40
  Him through Jesus Christ. 9 therefore is the name of the
• 8:44
  city called Babel, because the Lord did confound the language
• 8:48
  of all the earth. From there did the Lord scatter
• 8:51
  them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
• 8:54
  And that's exactly what happened.
• 8:56
  God came down and he scattered them abroad and caused them to
• 9:02
  speak different languages, and even still to this day these
• 9:06
  languages exist. 10 These are the generations of Shem.
• 9:11
  Shem was 100 years old and had our Foxod 2 years after the
• 9:16
  flood. So we know that we came or the
• 9:19
  Messiah came through our Foxod through Shem. 11 And Shem lived
• 9:24
  after he had our Foxod 500 years and he had sons and daughters.
• 9:29
  12 And our Foxod lived 5 and 30 years and had Salah 13 And our
• 9:35
  Foxhub lived and he had Salah 403 years and had sons and
• 9:41
  daughters. 14 Salah lived 30 years and had Eber 15 And Salah
• 9:47
  lived after he had Eber 403 years and had sons and
• 9:52
  daughters. So that Eber is where we get the
• 9:54
  name Hebrew from. 16 And Eber lived 4 and 30 years and had
• 9:59
  Peleg. 17 And Eber lived after he had Peleg 430 years and had
• 10:05
  sons and daughters. 18 And Pileg lived 30 years and had rue. 19
• 10:12
  and Pileg lived after he had rue 209 years.
• 10:16
  And he had sons and daughters. 20 And Rue lived 230 years and
• 10:21
  had Saroog. 21 And Rue lived after he had Saroog 207 years.
• 10:26
  And he had sons and daughters. 22 And Saroog lived 30 years and
• 10:31
  had Nahor 23 and Saroog lived after he had Nahor 200 years and
• 10:37
  had sons and daughters. 24 And Nahor lived 9 and 20 years and
• 10:42
  had Terra 25 and Nahor lived after he had Terra 119 years and
• 10:49
  he had sons and daughters. So if you notice here, Noah died
• 10:52
  at 900, and then we see his sons dying sooner, and then we see
• 10:58
  four hundreds and then we see two hundreds, and then we
• 11:01
  finally arrive here to the 119 years.
• 11:06
  And that is how you see the lifespan of man dwindling down
• 11:10
  from the 9 hundreds to the 120. And God said it would be so 26
• 11:17
  And Terra lived 70 years, and he had Abram, Nahor, and Haran.
• 11:23
  So we see here this is the father of faith, Abraham.
• 11:26
  We see the lineage here. And what an amazing thought is
• 11:30
  that Adam and Eve could have told their son and they lived
• 11:36
  1000 years and they lived 1000 years.
• 11:38
  And they told their son they lived 1000 years.
• 11:41
  They told Noah and then Noah told his sons.
• 11:45
  And then here his sons touch this Abram and you can see how
• 11:53
  4000 years of biblical history overlap each other and they all
• 12:00
  played the telephone game from creation and how it all went
• 12:04
  down. And we see that the Bible is
• 12:06
  trustworthy and true. It's not man made and invented.
• 12:10
  We can build our life on it and we'll never be put to shame.
• 12:13
  And we see that this Haran, this was the son that died, and he
• 12:17
  was grieving, Tarah was grieving over.
• 12:21
  And we see Abram taking Haran's son, his nephew Lot with him. 27
• 12:28
  These are the generations that Tarah, Tarah had Abram, Nehor,
• 12:31
  Haran, and Haran had Lot. 28 And Haran died before his father
• 12:37
  Tarah in the land of the nativity and the ER of the
• 12:40
  Chaldees. So perhaps they were idol
• 12:43
  worshippers, they were Gentiles, and God called them out.
• 12:47
  He called Abraham out, and he wanted to make a peculiar nation
• 12:52
  unto himself, to be a light to all the world friends, and he
• 12:57
  called him out of the land of the earth, the Chaldees. 29 And
• 13:01
  Abram and Nahor took them wives, and the name of Abraham's wife
• 13:05
  was Sarai, and the name of Nahor's wife Milka, the daughter
• 13:09
  of Haran, the father of Milka and the father of Iska. 30 But
• 13:14
  Sarai was barren, she had no child.
• 13:17
  So here you need to know that God has a master plan, and he
• 13:23
  always works on our faith. And that is what it's about to
• 13:26
  happen. He's about to make Abraham the
• 13:29
  father of faith. When Abraham was faithless, God
• 13:32
  was faithful. 31 And Tara took Abram his son, and Lot the son
• 13:39
  of Haran his son son, and Sarah his daughter-in-law his son
• 13:44
  Abram's wife. And they went forth with them
• 13:47
  from ur the Chaldees, to go into the land of Canaan, and they
• 13:50
  came unto Haran and dwelt there. So that was the land that was
• 13:55
  named after the son that died prematurely.
• 13:58
  And instead of going all the way into the promised land, as God
• 14:03
  had told him to, they stopped and mourned and grieved.
• 14:07
  And this was a time of disobedience, because they were
• 14:12
  supposed to go in. 32 In the days of Tarah were 205 years,
• 14:18
  and Tarah died in Haran. He was an old man grieving over
• 14:22
  his son. Wow.
• 14:25
  What an amazing Bible. What an amazing book.
• 14:28
  This is the only piece of literature known to mankind that
• 14:31
  has the track record to be able to predict itself with the
• 14:35
  pinpoint accuracy that it does, which proves that it's
• 14:38
  trustworthy and true. And we can bank on every
• 14:41
  syllable, every jot and every title, and you'll never be put
• 14:45
  to shame. Do not call any of this into
• 14:48
  question. It's exactly the way that it
• 14:50
  says it. Our God is faithful even when
• 14:55
  we're not. I pray that you've been blessed
• 14:59
  by this amazing chapter in God's Word.
• 15:01
  I know I sure have. I'm praying for every single one
• 15:04
  of you. I love you.
• 15:05
  We'll see you back here tomorrow.
• 15:07
  God bless you.
