Genesis 11

 


Unity is a great thing. Or is it a great thing? If people are united for a good cause then yes unity is good in fact without unity great good cannot be accomplished. However, consider the Nazis reunified and they did a lot, I don't want to say great things because some of the things they accomplished were horrible but they accomplished a lot. 

This is where God is concerned in Genesis chapter 11 at the Tower of Babel. The people are coming together to build a great City so they can't be dispersed as God commanded and many believe so they could stand against any future flood and thus stand against God. God wasn't afraid of them building a tower or of them trying to build it to heaven to challenge him. He is greater than anyone. God's concern was that they could do anything but the things they were going to do were going to be bad. How do we know this because whenever your motives are wrong they affect the outcome?
