From Babel to the City of God / Part I

PART I

NIMROD: THE ARCHITECT OF BABYLON


Understanding Babylon as a Corrupted System of this world from Genesis to Revelation


Main texts

Genesis 9:1; 10:8–12; 11:1–9


Central truth of this Message:

Babylon begins wherever human strength organizes itself independently of God’s authority.


Preaching

To help the Church recognize Babylon as more than an ancient city. Babylon is a recurring spiritual system of pride, self-exaltation, control, counterfeit unity, corrupted worship, and resistance to God.


Introduction: Babylon Never Disappeared

“Cush begot Nimrod; he began to be a mighty one on the earth. He was a mighty hunter before the LORD; therefore it is said, “Like Nimrod the mighty hunter before the LORD.” And the beginning of his kingdom was Babel, Erech, Accad, and Calneh, in the land of Shinar. From that land he went to Assyria and built Nineveh, Rehoboth Ir, Calah, and Resen between Nineveh and Calah (that is the principal city).  Genesis 10:8-12, NKJV
