Lesson Theme: Historical Accuracy of the Bible
Let’s face it. Sometimes there are some pretty incredulous claims made by the Holy Scriptures that seem… well, absolutely EXTRAORDINARY!
Of course, it may be worthy of note that EXTRAORDINARY things tend to get mentioned vs. the mundane.
However, when it comes to the account of things, like, the Tower of Babel, and the Origin of Languages, its worth taking a long hard look at what the Bible has to say on the subject.
When I consider the Tower of Babel, two burning questions jump right out: WHY and WHY?!??!
Why would a people even attempt such a thing? Did Nimrod HONESTLY truly believe that he could reach heaven via a TOWER? What would happen when they got only 4 miles up and had trouble breathing the thin oxygen?
Perhaps even MORE curious, WHY on earth did God stop them? The whole plan was doomed to failure from the start, so why did God feel so threatened by a prototype skyscraper?!?
All of this and much more await your class in this weeks lesson.
