Bunch of Babel – Genesis 11:6

Genesis 11:6  The LORD said, “Look! They are one people with the same language for all of them, and this is only the beginning of what they will do. Nothing that they have a mind to do will be impossible for them!

The above Scripture is in reference to the Tower of Babel.  Men had come together to build a tower that would reach to the heavens in order to make a name for themselves. God didn’t like that one bit.  So He scattered the people and made them speak different languages.

This story usually conjures up bad images of mankind in my mind.  However, if you look at it from a positive standpoint, it is saying that if man would exhibit cooperative communication and effort nearly any obstacle can be overcome.

When people get behind ideas and work and communicate together, things happen. This happens for good and bad, both in the physical and spiritual.  Whether the undertaking is of a small group or by many nations, what propels man forward is often an idea followed by positive communication.
