"From Babel to Pentecost: God's Plan for Unity In our pride, we build towers to make a name for ourselves. But God's plan is greater:• Self-provision → Christ's sacrifice • Self-promotion → Christ's humility • Self-protection → Trusting God's willWhat sin separated at Babel, Jesus reconnected at Pentecost. Through Him, we become one faith, one people, united in diversity.'Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus...' - Philippians 2:5

From Noah's family to Babylon's defiance, scripture reveals how pride leads to downfall, but grace comes through Jesus who is the true bridge between heaven and earth. Discover how Babel connects to your life today, learn why pride is so destructive and how to resist it, and see how Jesus fulfills what the tower could never do.

Genesis 11:1-9 • Matt Glezos
In This Episode:How does Alan DiDio's Summoning the Demon expose the spiritual dangers of AI?Is artificial intelligence the modern-day Tower of Babel?Are we witnessing the rise of a one-world system through technology?Today, Jim, John, and Lonaiah take a deep dive into Alan DiDio's Summoning the Demon—an eye-opening look at how AI is more than just a tool—it may be the beginning of something far more dangerous. Could AI be fulfilling ancient prophecies and leading humanity toward a digital rebellion against God, just like the Tower of Babel?This discussion explores the connection between AI, transhumanism, and spiritual deception. As technology advances, we're seeing the merging of the digital and spiritual realms—with AI being used to imitate God, manipulate human consciousness, and even replace traditional faith.Key Topics in This Episode:⚡ Alan DiDio's Summoning the Demon—how AI is becoming a spiritual threat ⚡ The Tower of Babel vs. today's technological advancements ⚡ Could AI and digital surveillance be the foundation for the Antichrist system? ⚡ Neuralink, transhumanism, and the push to merge humans with machines ⚡ The Nephilim, fallen angels, and their connection to technological secrets ⚡ Is CERN or AI being used to open demonic portals?Humanity is racing toward a technological singularity where AI controls commerce, information, and even spirituality. Are we building a modern-day Babel—a system that seeks to replace God?
We tend to read the Bible in a worldview boxed by the literal, material, and rational. Imagination wants to open a window to a vision of who we are called to be. This sermon explores the reality of the spiritual realm and what it means for us.

Send us a textGenesis 1-11: The greatest hits of Sunday school, or something much deeper? In this episode of the Christian AF Podcast, Jesse, Jen, and Evan dive into the origins of everything—creation, Adam & Eve, Noah's Ark, and the Tower of Babel—except we're not here for the flannelgraph version.Is Genesis meant to be taken literally, or is there something bigger going on? Why do so many people make this the hill they're willing to die on? And most importantly, how do we talk about this with kids without setting them up for a faith crisis at 20?We also question how Christians engage with culture, why we still think Noah's Ark was a cute children's story despite being about mass destruction, and whether Jesus and the disciples were just hanging out naked all the time (it's a fair question, okay?).So grab a drink, get comfortable, and let's rethink the Bible stories we thought we knew.NOTEABLE LINKS:MARK'S GOSPLE w Max McLeanhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rVFQfPTJPq8EPISODE DRINKING NOTES:Glendronach 15 Year Scotch Highland, Scotland Sherry Cask Matured Single Malt | 46% ABVOld Rip Van Winkle 10 Year Bourbon Frankfort, KY Straight Bourbon Whiskey | 53.5% ABV$550 of Discounted Wine from Woodman's Location: Jesse's House Consumption Rate: QuestionableSupport the show––––––––BUY US A DRINKhttps://www.paypal.com/paypalme/ChristianAFPodcastBE A MONTHLY SUPPORTERhttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1019536/supportLINKS AND SOCIAL MEDIAWebsite • Facebook • InstagramEmail: christianafpodcast@gmail.com

Genesis 11: 1 - 9 When God saw people build a tower and he confused their languages and scattered them over the earth, it wasn't because building cities are bad or making a name for ourselves is dishonorable; rather, God cares about the motives behind our actions and for us to obey His will. In that moment, humans were not filling the earth as God commanded, so God scattered them Himself. Studying the tower of Babel narrative, Pastor Scott shares what it means to follow the will of God.

Is the internet the modern-day version of the Tower of Babel? Maybe, maybe not. But the timeless wisdom of the Tower of Babel story still has plenty to teach us today about human nature, power, and the relationship between humanity and God (the Creator or whatever else you prefer to call him/it). On this week's episode we apply this ancient wisdom to what we are experiencing today as another angle of our ongoing attempt to make sense of the world we inherited, in the hopes that maybe, just maybe we can find a little more sanity in it.

The Tower of Babel and the Danger of Self-Glorification St. Augustine's definition of sin is self-centeredness . . . . . . when a person turns inward instead of toward God. Using the metaphor of a bronze helmet with a mirror, the saint illustrates how sin causes individuals to focus only on themselves, unable to see beyond their own image. This idea is connected to modern “selfie culture,” where self-projection and self-importance dominate. The Tower of Babel The homily links this concept to the biblical story of the Tower of Babel, where people sought to elevate themselves to God's level, leading to confusion and division. In contrast, Jesus teaches self-denial and self-giving, urging his followers to turn outward toward God and others. The Homily warns that technological advancements, while beneficial, can become tools of self-centeredness if they are only used for personal gain rather than the common good. The reversal of Babel happens at Pentecost when the Holy Spirit unites people despite their differences. listen also to a special concluding prayer for God's Spirit to guide people away from self-focus and toward love, service, and unity.

The Tower of Babel: The Human Quest For Security/Genesis 11:3-4
The Genesis eleven story of the tower of Babel is one we need to pay attention to in our social media saturated world. In his book, This World is Not My Home, Mark Johnston writes that man's motive behind the vast tower of Babel efforts was, as we read in Genesis eleven four, “to make a name for ourselves, lest we be dispersed over the face of the whole earth.” Johnston continues, “the Babel instinct in the human psyche has lingered on through the entire history of our race. From man's attempts to literally build a name for himself by constructing great works of architectural genius, to his efforts to establish kingdoms and empires, human beings have tried to secure themselves in their world through all manner of tangible means. We try to build our own little worlds without God through our careers, achievements, families, and other things in the hope they will provide the security and sense of identity we crave.” Parents, teach your kids to find their identity in Jesus Christ alone.

Renegade Supply Store: https://renegade-supply-shop.printify.me/products There are some stories in scripture especially when you get back towards Genesis that seem so far removed that it can be hard for us to extract any meaning from it. However, God never gives us anything that he doesn't want us to use. Today Michael Ness joins me again as we wrap up his series on Genesis. The main scriptural account we will be covering is about Nimrod and the Tower of Babel. During the course of our conversation, we talk about who Nimrod was and his possible connections to the character of Baal, as well as a period of time that overlaps with Abraham. We then move on to Tower of Babel and some very interesting parallels to our modern society and some warnings from the past that we should pay attention to. Now you can't talk about those things without also taking time as well to talk about The Brother of Jared, the Jaredites from the Book of Mormon and their concurrent history.

Today we read about the descendants of Noah, and the story of the Tower of Babel from Genesis 10-11, as well as Psalm 2. Fr. Mike reveals the errors of these characters, and how we also can fall into the same traps. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear. Please note: The Bible contains adult themes that may not be suitable for children - parental discretion is advised.
The Tower of Babel described in the Book of Genesis is not a myth. It did exist. It has been found. It was a ziggurat, or stepped pyramid, located about 56 miles south of present day Bagdad, Iraq. Its name was "Etemenanki" with means "Temple of the Foundation of Heaven and Earth." It was dedicated to the pagan god Marduk. It was built about the14th century BC. It was a 7-layered pyramid, meaning it had seven stories, or steps. The earliest pyramids were not smooth-sided like the Great Pyramid at Giza, Egypt. The descriptions, ancient and modern, of Etemenanki are so similar to the descriptions of the Tower of Babel in Genesis, there is no doubt they are one and the same.
The Tower of Babel story is iconic. Featured in the Book of Genesis, it explains how different languages came to be across the world. But what are its origins?Join Tristan Hughes and Prof. Lloyd Llewellyn-Jones in this special episode of The Ancients - recorded live at the London Podcast Festival - as they delve into the biblical roots of the myth and uncover the real archeological remains that inspired the fable. They explore how ancient ziggurats influenced depictions of the tower, discuss the intersection between history and faith and discover how age-old texts and modern archaeology combine to unravel the mysteries behind the story of the Tower of Babel.Presented by Tristan Hughes.
