ANCIENT GRACE: Babbling Fools

Rev. Matt Miller (Genesis 11:1-9) The story of the tower of Babel is the story of hubris and pride, of misplaced trust in the power of technology and the belief that by exercising our power over the created world we can become like God. In spite of the advancements, men have come no farther than Adam and Eve who gave in to this same temptation.  Despite the cleansing flood, the remnant of evil remains in the hearts of those who seek significance, security and supremacy through the work of their own hands. Instead of looking to the God of creation for their hope and significance, will men still work for their salvation?
