From this Divine judgment and dispersion, the nations were born.
When the triune Godhead saw what was transpiring in the plains of Shinar (i.e., the city of Babel), in His grace and mercy He changed their common language to many different languages (tongues), creating a situation where people divided into various clans and tribes. Babel’s inhabitants were then scattered across the face of the earth (Gen. 10; 11:9). This event forestalled the result of a one-world godless state and postponed God’s judgment on this delusional system until a much later time in the future (Rev. 17:1-5; 18:3-5; 19:2). From this Divine judgment and dispersion, the nations were born (Gen. 10).
The Nations of the Earth were:
- Reared (raised) in godless unbelief and ignorance (Acts 17:26 -30, Rom 1:18-32, Eph. 2:1-3,11,4:17).
- Lived out in carelessness, depravity and violence (Matt 6:6, Acts 14:14-16, Rom 1:24-32, Eph. 2:11,4:17, 1 Thess. 4:5, 1 Peter 4:3, Rev 6:4-8, 13:1-10, 18:23-24).
- Terminated in vanity, wrath (judgment) and eternal damnation (Psa. 2; Psa. 110; Dan. 7:43-44; Matt. 25:31-32, 41; Acts 17:31; 2 Thess. 2:7-9; 1 Peter 2:12; Rev. 16:13-16; 19:11-20; 20:7-9).
.
Note: Only a small remnant of all the nations - from Babel to the end of the age - will place their faith and trust in Almighty God for salvation (Matt. 8:11, 25: 31-40, Luke 13:29, Rev. 7:13-17; 14, Isa. 60:1-3, Micah 4:1-3, Zech. 8:21-23, John 3:1:17, Rev. 21:22-27, 22:2). These (i.e., the saved of the nations) are the ones whom God foreknew while He spared the inhabitants of Babel from total destruction. In His grace and mercy He chose rather to "babble" their languages and scatter them throughout the world then a total eradicating judgment (note the commandment of Almighty God in Gen. 9:1) - Zech. 14:16; Matt. 25:31-34; Rev. 14:9-14; 21:24.
.

This 'Babelology' of a godless politico-religious ideology and philosophy still dominates our world today....
Since Babel’s judgment some forty-two hundred years ago, people in the world today have been living in the aftermath of the “Babylonian unbelief and apostasy.” This "Babelology” of politico-religious ideology and philosophy still dominates our world today, and it has truly hampered Lucifer’s tyrannical designs for global worship and creation of a global fascist state under his sole, sovereign thumb (Rev. 14:8; 17:16-17; 18:2). Even now, events are transpiring that will soon make Satan’s grand and diabolical design a reality (2 Thess. 2:7; 1 John 4:3).
The Final Delusion of Desolation - 666

It is a fact of history that as societies, cultures and nations become more base (degenerate) and hardened against the living God, they become increasingly vulnerable to godless and demonic (evil) influences.
It is a fact of history that as societies, cultures, and nations become more base (degenerate) and hardened against the living God, they become increasingly vulnerable to godless and demonic (evil) influences. (Luke 4:5-6; Eph. 2:1-2; 6:12; 1 Tim. 4:1-2; Rev. 16:13-16). This trend is a driving force that is setting the stage even now for the world’s final showdown against Almighty God, His sovereign authority, and ETERNAL reign on earth and in heaven. This final showdown is called the Battle of Armageddon (Psalm 2; Dan. 2:43-44; Joel 3:2; Zech. 14:2; Rev. 16:13-16). Once the Rapture of the Church takes place, Almighty God’s restraint will be removed (2 Thess. 2:3, 6-8). The dam - as it were - will be removed and the godless, base practices and the unbridled passions of man will be unleashed to flood the world with godlessness and lawlessness. As these awesomely turbulent times of global calamities come to pass, the world will look for a scapegoat. Feelings of anti-Semitism and hatred for Israel will intensify as never before (Matt. 24:12; Rev. 12:17).

This has always been Lucifer's agenda since the Garden of Eden. His desire has been to go "back to Babel" and insert his demonic minion and to rule over the physical and spiritual world.
The Anti-Christ will dissolve all nations and all national identity (cultural and social) and impose on the world his mark, his idol-image, and his will. In so doing he will cause ALL to worship both himself and his “father,” a.k.a. “Lucifer, the son of the morning” (Isa. 14:12); “that old serpent” (Rev. 12:9; Gen. 3:1-4); “a great red dragon” (Rev. 12:3-4); and “the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world” (Rev. 12:9). In this, his mad attempt, Anti-Christ will ULTIMATELY SUCCEED! (2 Thess. 2:4; Rev. 13:4, 8, 12, 16-18). This has always been Lucifer's agenda since the Garden of Eden. His desire has been to go "back to Babel" and insert his demonic minion and to rule over the physical and spiritual world (Isa. 14:12-15).

In the end - for a human being marred by Adam's fall - it is absolutely hopeless without Almighty God our Creator's saving solution.
6000 years of human history has overwhelmingly demonstrated that when Almighty God and His moral absolutes are left out of mankind's "godless" equation: death, destruction, tyranny, violence, vice, greed, lawlessness, licentiousness, oppression, etc. will reign supreme and knowingly or unknowingly they will be under the tyrannical domain of Lucifer and his fallen angels (Luke 4:6-7, Rom. 1:18-32, 5:12-21, Gal. 5:19-21, Eph. 2:1-2). In the end - for a human being marred by Adam's fall - it is absolutely hopeless without Almighty God our Creator's saving solution which is ONLY found in His Son Jesus Christ. He ALONE is the sole propitiation for ALL humanity (John 3:16-17, Acts 4:12, Rom. 5:12-21, 1 John 2:2).
My friend, if you know not the Savior, may you pray to see the ETERNAL picture and understand your desperate need for redemption and deliverance from your transgressions against your Creator. As these days intensify and enter into the horrific seven-year tribulation period which is at hand (Rom. 2:4, Rev. 6-19).
The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!

do you believe that some languages are closer to the perfect, pre-Babel language?
PLC, I don't know what you mean by that, but before Babel in the pre flood world (Gen 1-6) there was only one language which was perfectly given to Adam from Almighty God His Creator in a pre- fallen world. (Gen. 1:31)
I've been reading some very interesting fiction books by Brian Godawa about this early history. They are fiction, but are meticulously researched in the Bible and related sources.
I read "Gilgamesh Immortal" a month or two ago (http://www.amazon.com/Gilgamesh-Immortal-Chronicles-Nephilim-Book/dp/0985930942/ref=pd_bxgy_b_img_y) and am now reading "Abraham Allegiant" (http://www.amazon.com/Abraham-Allegiant-Chronicles-Nephilim-Volume/dp/0985930985). I'm about half way through "Abraham" and the division of languages just happened.
Godawa is a bit more descriptive of some of the activities of the pagan cultures than I prefer (I wouldn't recommend it for children), but the books really seem faithful to the Scriptures, filling in some additional literary details with Jewish theological sources as well as extra-Biblical ones (e.g. weaving the Epic of Gilgamesh into a Biblical framework).
Thanks Bob! I'll have to check those out!
God speed my bro!
