In this presentation, Pastor Bohr traces the history of the Tower of Babel and how its capital city of Babylon developed, worshiped its founder as the sun god, and became the great enemy of truth and God's people over the centuries.
Just one-hundred years after the flood, the "sons of men" had again become so corrupt and full of pride that God had to stop their rebellious consolidation at Babel by confusing their languages and scattering them across the world. The holy line of the "sons of God" had to be protected in this way before Nimrod's one-world empire would wipe it out. But as soon as the Messiah had accomplished His work, God reversed what He had done at the scattering of the nations, by giving the disciples the ability to speak in other tongues, so that the gospel could be spread throughout the world without the language barriers that had started at Babel.
This story also has prophetic implications, as satan is gathering and uniting his followers into one final, huge, worldwide and conglomerate spiritual "Babylonian Empire" which will, by ecumenicalism and confusing doctrines, tongues, miracles and lies, try to overthrow God, His truth and His chosen people at the end of time. The sun god, Nimrod, will appear spiritually, as the promotion of the worship of God on the false worship day, Sunday, becomes the key issue in the end. Satan will be so successful in his plan that Jesus wondered, with prophetic vision, if He would find faith on earth when He comes again. But, like Noah, Lot, and Abraham, whom God called to come out of the area of Babylon before he might become corrupted, there will be an end time remnant left, who have come out, and will stay out, of spiritual Babylon, even though these elect ones will have come close to being overthrown by the dragon's wrath and Babylon's inviting delusions.
Pastor Bohr ties things together by examining the history of how Israel, God's chosen people, began when Abraham left the cities of Mesopotamia for Canaan and discusses the purpose for which they were called out. He shows how those Christians are deceived and mistaken who focus on thinking God's promises will be fulfilled to the literal nation of rebellious Israel today, and who fail to see that those promises are already fulfilled in Abraham's true Seed, Christ and to anyone who accepts Him as the true Israel of the promise made to Abraham by faith. All of this is critical to understanding end time prophecy correctly.
