Soul Focus 1 “Didn’t Work For Babel…So, Good Luck With That”

By”Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools” Romans 1:22

Sometimes you just really have to wonder what people are thinking when they come up with some of the far out plans, plots, and schemes, especially some of those we hear about today.

Lord’s will, over the next little bit, we’ll take a look at a few of these master plans that are being concocted by those who are revered as being of above average intelligence in matters of science, safety, the environment, and let’s not forget our new go-to term, health care.

Whom society views as the voice of reason in all we say, think, and do.

And whose advice is sought after, paid for, and even sometimes forced upon those who really don’t share their visions of good for one, good for all socialism, whether it’s really good for us or not.

What I find actually comical, is that in many of these instances, the remedy to the current issue that ails, is already laid out in the word of God, and for a world whose majority decries and denies the existence of an eternal sovereign being, known to us as Jehovah God, yet they are hellbent on formulating plans to counter Bible prophecies and prevent their fulfillment.

Kinda reminds of another group of individuals, only now the plans are to the infinite extreme.

“And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there.

And they said one to another, Go to (Come), let us make brick, and burn them thoroughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for mortar.

And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth.

And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower, which the children of men builded. 

And the Lord said, Behold, the people is one, and they all have one language; and this they begin to do; and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.

Go to, let us go down, and there confound (confuse) their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.

The Lord scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth; and the left off to build the city(quit).

Therefore is the name it called Babel; because the Lord did there confound the language of all the earth; and from thence (then) did the Lord scatter them abroad upon the face of the all the earth.” Genesis 11:1-9

You know, maybe someone even could have spoke up, and said something like, “Well, that obviously didn’t work!” But the others couldn’t have understood what they were saying anyway,

So… and think about this, their reasoning for doing this was the fear of being scattered, and they brought on the reality of that fear by concocting this grand plan rather than trusting the plan of God.

So now lets get on to another human devised plan that “makes you go hmmm?”. Can you tell that I was a Freedom Williams fan back in the day? Wonder if I need a no copyright infringement intended statement?

Well, hopefully if I did , that will suffice, I am using it as a phrase not a new song title. Well enough of my ramblings let’s get to it, shall we?

Scientist believe with relative certainty that earth is endanger of someday being plummeted by a Mac Daddy of an asteroid and they would like to prevent this, if possible, and save an untold number of lives, and probably even earth as we know it, so as all of you already know through news outlets that they have devised their plan to redirect potential earth bound asteroids.

Even sounds kinda noble doesn’t it? I am sure there were probably a builder or two on the tower that thought it was a good ideal for the betterment of all and good of all. But we know, it really wasn’t a good idea, it didn’t make anything better and hurt them in the end through the judgment of consequence that will remain in effect until the Kingdom of Jesus in which all language will again be one.

So they knows it’s coming, and they want to set up a defense against it, and the problem with that is that this is Bible prophecy, there is only one defense against those things prophesied and that is through a personal relationship with Jesus, only through salvation can any of us escape the inevitable and there is no preventing it from happening.

There is no redirecting the course for all of earth, we can only redirect our personal, individual course and then Jesus is our defense, he takes his children out of the path of harm.

But there is nothing mortal man can do to prevent these things from coming to pass.

My question is Why do they still refuse to believe? Why will they not believe something that written close to eighteen hundred years ago?

They will believe absolute lies, such as Evolution and Darwinism, and that our universe is all there is, and that death is a peaceful state of sleep, with no afterlife, they will believe everything except the truth that stares them in the face,

They will believe that murder is a punishable crime and yet that same act of taking a life given from God, becomes a healthcare choice if the murder victim is a baby.

They believe that the center of the earth is possibly as hot as the surface of the sun, but yet they refuse to believe in the existence of Hell.

And they will believe that an asteroid will inevitably hit earth, bringing catastrophic destruction such as humankind has never known, yet they refuse to believe the foretelling of this event found in Holy scripture.

“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.

And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.

And another angel came and stood at the altar; having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all  saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.

And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand.

And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth; and there were voices and thunderings, and lightenings, and an earthquake.

And the seven angels which had the seven trumpets prepared themselves to sound.

The first angel sounded, and there followed hail and fire,mingled with blood, and they were cast upon the earth; and the third part of the trees were burnt up, and all green grass was burnt up.

And the second angel sounded, and as it were a great mountain burning with fire was cast into the sea; and the third part of the sea became blood. And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life,died; and the third part of the ships were destroyed.

And the third angel sounded, and there fell a great star from heaven, burning as it were a lamp, and it fell upon the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters;

And the name of the star is called Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter.”  Revelation 8:1-11

Many things are coming and nothing in human invention and planning can rival the power and strength of Almighty God.

These event will happen, but they happen as judgments upon unrepentant sin and refusal to accept Christ and accept divine deliverance.

Science know it’s coming, Christians have always known it’s coming.

Defense is noble, but never put your trust in human invention, put your trust in the only one who truly saves, and sets all things in motion.

Blessing and Peace to you and yours! Till next time!
