PARALLEL BETWEEN GOD’S INTERVENTION AT BABEL AND JESUS CHRIST’S SECOND COMING

From humanity’s rebellion at Babel to the Redeemer’s return in glory, God is restoring His rightful Kingdom and dwelling place among mankind.

The Most High rules in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomever He will.” Daniel 4:17

1. The Tower of Babel: The Birth of Human Empire

Passage: Genesis 10–11

  • Babel (Babylon) was humanity’s first political‑religious unity against God’s authority.
  • Nimrod, a mighty hunter and founder of kingdoms (Gen. 10:8–10), embodied the spirit of human self‑rule.
  • Goal: “Let us build us a city and a tower… and let us make us a nameGen. 11:4.

God’s Response

  • He confused their language, scattering them across the earth (Gen. 11:7–9).
  • The result: multiple nations, each separating from the one rebellious system.
  • Babel becomes the pattern for all anti‑God world empires.

Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth.Revelation 17:5

2. The Call of Abraham: God’s Counter‑Kingdom

Passage: Genesis 12:1–3

Right after Babel’s scattering, God calls Abraham—His plan shifts from man’s rebellion to divine redemption.

  • A new nation by faith, not by pride.
  • Promise: “In thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.”

This covenant is the seed of Messiah’s Kingdom, showing that God’s method of world blessing is through chosen covenant, not human federation.

3. Israel and the Theocratic Pattern

Passages: Exodus 19:5–6; Deuteronomy 7:6–9

At Sinai, God declares Israel “a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation.”

  • Israel becomes a living contrast to Babel’s self‑rule — governed by revealed law, indwelt by God’s presence.
  • The Davidic Covenant later secures the promise of an eternal throne and King (2 Samuel 7:12–16).
  • Prophets foretell a coming descendant of David who will restore all nations under divine rule (Isaiah 9:6–7).

4. The Rise of the Gentile Empires: Echoes of Babel

Passage: Daniel 2; 7; 8

The image in Nebuchadnezzar’s dream (Daniel 2) and the beasts in Daniel 7 outline four successive world empires:

  1. Babylon — head of gold
  2. Medo‑Persia — chest of silver
  3. Greece — belly of bronze
  4. Rome — legs of iron

Each empire carries Babel’s DNA — attempting global unity without God.
The final phase (ten‑horned kingdom) becomes the revived form of Babylonian arrogance, preparing the stage for the Antichrist.

Babylon is fallen, is fallen.Revelation 14:8; 18:2

5. The First Coming of Christ: The True King Rejected

Passages: Luke 1:31–33; John 1:11

  • Jesus came announcing: “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” Matthew 4:17
  • He fulfilled the prophetic requirements of the Davidic King (Isaiah 9:6–7; Micah 5:2).
  • Yet the world — Jew and Gentile alike — rejected Him, choosing Caesar over Christ (John 19:15).

The world’s rejection of the King parallels Babel’s ancient defiance: man asserting his own authority over God’s.

6. The Church Age: The Kingdom Hidden, Not Absent

Passages: Matthew 13:24–33; Acts 2:1–47

  • The Gospel spreads to all tongues (a reversal of Babel’s confusion at Pentecost).
  • God calls out a people for His name while the nations continue their self‑made systems.
  • The spiritual kingdom operates in hearts, awaiting its physical manifestation when the King returns.

The kingdom of God is within you.Luke 17:21

7. The End‑Time Babylon: Global Rebellion Reborn

Passages: Revelation 13; 17–18

  • A final Babylon rises—political, religious, and economic—uniting humanity in false worship under the Antichrist.
  • It mirrors Nimrod’s ancient project: one system, one speech, one power, without God.
  • The false prophet deceives the world, and all who refuse the mark are persecuted.

All that dwell upon the earth shall worship him.Revelation 13:8

God’s Judgment

  • Babylon’s fall is immediate and total (Rev. 18:8–10).
  • Heaven rejoices: “Alleluia! For the Lord God omnipotent reigneth.” (Rev. 19:6).

8. The Return of Christ: God’s Final Overthrow of Babel

Passages: Revelation 19:11–21; Zechariah 14:3–9

  • Christ returns in glory at Armageddon, destroying the Antichrist and false prophet.
  • Human rebellion — begun at Babel — ends under His sword of truth.
  • Satan is bound a thousand years (Revelation 20:1–3).
  • The King of kings is enthroned in Jerusalem, ruling the nations with a rod of iron (Psalm 2:6–9; Revelation 19:15).

9. The Millennial Kingdom: Babel Reversed, Eden Restored

  • Language, nations, and worship unite under God, not against Him.
  • Jerusalem — once despised — becomes the capital of righteousness (Isaiah 2:2–4).
  • The curse on creation is subdued; the earth blooms again (Isaiah 35:1–6).
  • Every nation comes to worship the true King (Zechariah 14:16–19).

The LORD will be king over all the earth.Zechariah 14:9

10. The Eternal State: God’s Design Perfected

Passages: Revelation 21–22

When the thousand years conclude and final judgment falls,
God creates a new heaven and a new earth — the full realization of His kingdom purpose.
Humanity, forever free from sin, serves and reigns with Him eternally.

His servants shall serve Him… and they shall reign for ever and ever.Revelation 22:3–5

The Unbreakable Biblical Principle

Every tower man builds, God topples; every throne God promises, He fulfils.

From Babel’s tower to Christ’s throne, history moves from man’s defiance to God’s dominion.

CHRISTIAN PERSECUTION ESCALATING

Where do Christians face the most violence: PAKISTAN – Because of Pakistan’s blasphemy laws, Christians are at constant risk of being falsely accused of blaspheming Islam, the Koran or Mohammed, and they receive harsh punishments when convicted. NIGERIA – Nearly all Christians in north-eastern Nigeria have lost family members or friends in attacks by Boko Haram or Fulani Islamic militants. Entire congregations have been displaced, and many pastors have been forced to leave the region. DEMOCRATIC REPUBLIC OF CONGO – The church is under immense pressure in the eastern DRC. In areas controlled by the Allied Democratic Forces, Christian villages have been raided, churches destroyed and hundreds of believers brutally killed.

INDIA: At least two attacks on Christians are being reported every day in India this year, according to new figures released by a Christian advocacy group.

Christians constitute 2.3% of India’s population, based on the 2011 census. The UCF says the Christian minority has been facing growing hostility in recent years, particularly under laws and narratives advanced by Hindu nationalist groups. Twelve of India’s 28 states have laws that restrict religious conversions. Most of these are governed by the Hindu nationalist BJP, which Christian groups accuse of enabling Hindu nationalist attacks under the guise of anti-conversion enforcement.

A total of 313 incidents were recorded between January and May alone, based on calls to a toll-free helpline run by the New Delhi-based inter-denominational body United Christian Forum, according to the Union of Catholic Asian News

SYRIA: Multiple churches in Syria were attacked by terrorists; at least 20 dead, dozens wounded. A brutal terrorist attack took place on Sunday around 5 p.m. local time at Mar Elias Church in the Douweila neighbourhood of Damascus. The attacker began shooting at people and then blew himself up inside the church. As of 10 p.m. local time, at least 20 people are dead and at least 50 have been wounded, with the numbers still climbing.

Jesus told us what it will be like prior to His return to usher in His Millennial reign on this Earth.

For nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom, and there will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are but the beginning of the birth pains.
“Then they will deliver you up to tribulation and put you to death, and you will be hated by all nations for my name’s sake. And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom will be proclaimed throughout the whole world as a testimony to all nations, and then the end will come.
Matthew 24:7-14

BIBLICAL END TIMES PROPHECIES AND ISRAEL PROOF JESUS’ RETURN IS NEAR

Jonathan Cahn reveals that modern-day events in Israel and the world prove we are in the prophesied end times leading up to Jesus’ return and the battle of Armageddon. Jonathan has been called the prophetic voice of his generation and is known for unlocking the deep mysteries and revelations of God’s Word. His latest book, The Dragon’s Prophecy, is a must-read, as are his other bestsellers: The Josiah Manifesto, The Return Of The Gods, The Harbinger II, The Oracle, The Paradigm, The Book of Mysteries, and The Harbinger.

THE TIMING OF JESUS RETURN

I have just discovered John Bevere’s teaching on the end times. I have posted many videos by Nelson Walters, Jonathan Cahn, and others on the end times, but it is always good to find somebody new preaching a Biblically based message.

In this episode, John and his son, Arden Bevere, explore Jesus’ second coming, proving through Scripture that we are in the generation of the end. They unpack prophetic signs, the dangers of deception, and the importance of enduring with a love for truth. This conversation also dives into Daniel’s 70 Weeks prophecy and how it connects to Jesus’ first and second coming. Don’t miss this eye-opening episode that will deepen your understanding of the end times and strengthen your faith!

DANIEL’S AMAZING 70 WEEKS PROPHECY

Daniel’s 70 weeks prophecy is one of the most fascinating, powerful, majestic, and amazing prophecies of the Messiah – Jonathan Cahn opens up the mysterious Seventy Sevens of Daniel, the exact mathematical countdown to the coming of Messiah, and some surprising revelations hidden in the original language. Jonathan’s presentation is the best explanation of this amazing prophecy I have ever heard. The exact timing is a countdown of the Messiah’s coming given to Daniel. Proof the Bible is God’s Word to mankind. It provides the only true history of the Cosmos and its proof is fulfilled prophecy.

HOW DID JESUS TEACH US TO WATCH FOR HIS RETURN?

Jesus’ top END-TIME command to WATCH is being ignored, and according to Jesus, it will lead to the Great Apostasy. Pastors are afraid to teach what it really means, so vast numbers of our churches are clueless. Many have already compromised with the world and are already apostate churches: gay marriage, homosexual pastors, and transgenderism.

How many churches are preaching the need to watch for Jesus’ return and to watch for the right things. How many times did Jesus say we need to watch and how do we watch? At least following Jesus’ command to be a good disciple is a good start but it is not what Jesus is saying, here. Watching for the signs Jesus has given us is so that, we know what is coming and can act accordingly. God has given us much information on the time before He returns, particularly on the Antichrist so He wants us to watch for the events so we will be prepared and can warn others.

There were 300-plus prophecies of Jesus first coming and the religious leaders of the day, the Pharisees and Sadducees totally missed it. There are 2000 prophecies of Jesus’ second coming and the religious leaders of our day are totally missing it.

Watch this Nelson Walters video to find out what the command is, and how to obey it.

ISRAEL’S RETURN, JUDGEMENT & THE MILLENNIUM

Jonathan Cahn preaches on the many end-times prophecies, starting with the rebirth of Israel and the great falling away in denominational institutional churches and ending with the coming Millennial reign of Jesus from a restructured/rebuilt Jerusalem.

Jonathan like many born-again leaders knows we are in the last days before Jesus returns and is preparing his congregation for what is ahead. My only concern is that he does not address the timing of The Rapture and the fact Christians need to prepare for the coming tribulation, even great tribulation. As Jesus and Paul told the disciples that they would see the Abomination of Desolation (Antichrist) (Matthew 24:15, Mark 13:14 and 2 Thessalonians 2:3-4) seated in the Temple declaring himself to be God. This takes place midway through the last seven years before Jesus returns to Earth with the Saints. The Rapture timing is at the end of the sixth year, the sixth seal, and the sixth church (church of Philadelphia).

SIXTH SEAL (Celestial signs that precede Jesus coming to rapture the Saints and signals the great day of God’s wrath has come): “When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?” Revelation 6:12-17

CHURCH OF PHILADELPHIA: “Behold, I have set before you an open door, which no one is able to shut. I know that you have but little power, and yet you have kept my word and have not denied my name… Because you have kept my word about patient endurance, I will keep you from the hour of trial that is coming on the whole world, to try those who dwell on the earth.Revelation 3:8,10

Moreover, the Church of Laodicea is the church that is left behind to face the wrath of God which hopefully leads to repentance and saving faith.

ARE WIND FARMS, SOLAR, AND BATTERIES OUR BEST ENERGY OPTIONS?

“The Extinction Rebellion types who like gluing themselves to roads are right about one thing. It makes no logical sense to rail against coal and gas like Bowen does and yet export it to major ‘polluters’ like China and India. If you truly believe that CO2 will cause a climate catastrophe or global ‘boiling’ then why would you extract and export the stuff to be used by others, while investing $billions (perhaps $trillions) in solar panels and windmills imported from China in particular who has burnt our carbon to make the panels and windmills?

“And why would you cover thousands of square kilometres of our arable land and wildlife habitat with solar panels, windmills, and transmission corridors Doesn’t this mean we are actually paying China to pollute and destroy our wildlife and the planet? And if you don’t believe that the planet is going to boil then why spend all that money on Chinese imports when we could just burn the carbon ourselves in our own power stations? Doesn’t this seem mad? The logic of Labor is so conflicted that we are willing to impoverish ourselves for nothing. Indeed it is mad.”

“Bowen asserts that an SMR (small modular reactor) would cost $5 billion. Well, that means we could build at least 4 SMRs that would be hooked to the existing grid and generate at least 1GWh of electricity on 24/7 basis for 60-80 years! Bowen has not been keeping up with what Rolls Royce SMR is doing.

Rolls-Royce SMR will move away from the high cost and high-risk complex construction programme principles into predictable factory-built commodities. Approximately 90% of manufacturing and assembly activities are carried out in factory conditions, helping to maintain an extremely high-quality product – reducing on-site disruption and supporting international roll out.

“An equivalent solar farm would need to have a theoretical output of 3+GW and would need replacing at least 4 times in addition to the $20+billion for rewiring. These are your figures – nuclear is a bargain.”

SMALL MODULAR NUCLEAR REACTORS ARE THE WAY TO GO FOR AUSTRALIA AND THE REST OF THE WORLD. If that is the case then I suggest you look at investing in the two companies that look set to dominate this market. BWX Technologies and Rolls-Royce SMR Ltd. Westinghouse is also developing the “eVinci” Small Micro Reactor so it may be worth your while following its progress.

Whilst my calling is to alert the world to what God has next for this world – Jesus Millennial Kingdom, I could not resist bringing this opportunity to the followers of http://www.livingeternal.net. God has given me a talent for business and I am sure that Jesus will use me in business during His Millennial reign in some capacity. What about you, have you ever thought about how Jesus may use you during His Millennial reign on this earth? Remember, the curse has not been lifted, people are still born and die and Jesus and the Saints need to rule with a rod of iron. Remember, also that Satan is bound for most of the thousand years but when he is released he is still able to raise an army, their number like the sand of the sea, to come against Jesus and the Saints.

What is next on God’s agenda is not the new heaven and the new earth where only the righteous dwell.

PROPHESIED ONE WORLD GOVERNMENT BEING FULFILLED

Former Congresswoman Michele Bachmann has told CBN News she fears all the world’s nations are about to submit too much sovereignty to a United Nations organization. The attempted power grab described by Bachmann involves the World Health Organization (WHO). Through a series of 307 amendments and a global pandemic treaty, the WHO is seeking to gain authority over international health decisions of U.N. member nations in the event of something like another COVID pandemic. “Then they would be empowered to tell us in America we have to lock down, we have to shut down, we have to close our churches, we have to close our schools,” Bachmann cautioned. “We’re forced, mandated, to take a vaccine, whether we want to or not. We’re forced to mask. We’re forced to do whatever it is they tell us that we have to do.  We have never before in 5,000 years of recorded human history, seen this level of authority given to an international, global body.”

Those supporting this authority for the WHO say it’s necessary to protect the world’s population, even if it means restricting some of their liberties. Dr. Abdullah Assiri, who co-chairs the Working Group on International Health Regulations, explained, “The world requires a different level of legal mandates, such as the pandemic treaty, to navigate through a particular pandemic, should one occur, and it will. Prioritizing actions that may restrict individual liberties, mandating and sharing of information, knowledge and resources, pandemic control efforts are all necessary during a pandemic.”  Dechen Wangmo, Bhutan’s Health Minister concurred. “Let us seize this opportunity to foster international collaboration, ensure global health security and protect the lives and the well-being of all people beyond boundaries,” she stated.

Bachmann sees little to no opposition to handing over this power next year. “I don’t think all the nations fully understand what these implications are,” she warned, “so we have very little time.” And top backers of this United Nations move say speed is of the essence. U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services Xavier Becerra conveyed the Biden administration’s urgency. “I wish to stress from our perspective, the quicker we can come together, the sooner we will all be safe,” he said. “We know that the challenges we face won’t be solved by a few leaders or a few countries, but by the world coming together and fighting for what’s right,” he claimed. Some in Congress opposed this move to further empower the WHO. There is proposed legislation that would deem it a treaty, which requires Senate approval. Bachmann, however, claims the White House is trying to make an end run around them.

She noted, “The Biden administration doesn’t plan to bring this treaty back to the U.S. Senate because they’re using a subterfuge. They’re calling it not a treaty.  They’re calling it an accord.  And they’re saying ‘This isn’t a treaty.  This is just an accord.  We can do this.  We don’t need the involvement of the U.S. government.’   But once you give government and power away, it’s very hard to get it back.” The former congresswoman points out that the Bible warns that a world-dominating power will bring trouble. “When you look at what the Bible says and the convergence of events that we are seeing across the world right now, and what the prophets from the Bible have said, we need to really pay attention to what’s going on. Because this is the creation of a platform for global government.  And according to the Bible, things that are not good come out of a global government.”

Bachmann is correct the Bible tells us that there will be a one-world government prior to Jesus’ return to earth to restore righteousness. The number of Biblical prophecies of Jesus second coming to earth is incredible. Almost 2000, and yet the church is not talking about the prophesied events prior to Jesus’ return. Mind you there were about 300 prophecies of Jesus first coming to earth and yet the religious leaders of the day, the Pharisees and Sadducees missed it. Why because they wanted a conquering leader who would defeat the Roman overlords. Likewise, the church is hoping that God will take believers to heaven in the rapture event described in the Bible prior to the prophesied tribulation, even great tribulation that will come upon those that will not take the mark of the Antichrist. This is not what the Bible tells us. God will rapture the Saints prior to pouring out His wrath upon an unrepentant world with the Trumpet and Bowl judgements but these do not occur until the trumpet blast of the seventh seal. The prophesied celestial signs that precede Jesus coming in the clouds and the wrath of God are not announced until the sixth seal.

When he opened the sixth seal, I looked, and behold, there was a great earthquake, and the sun became black as sackcloth, the full moon became like blood, and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale. The sky vanished like a scroll that is being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth and the great ones and the generals and the rich and the powerful, and everyone, slave and free, hid themselves in the caves and among the rocks of the mountains, calling to the mountains and rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who is seated on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb, for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?” Revelation 3:12-17

JESUS WILL RULE THE NATIONS OF THE EARTH

The Reign of the Lord’s Anointed

Psalm 2 speaks clearly about a time when Jesus will rule the nations of the earth. It is about the Biblical “end times” prior to Jesus’ return.

It tells us to serve Jesus in the fear of the Lord as we see that great and terrible Day of the Lord approaching when He will pour out His wrath upon an unrepentant world. Take refuge in Him before it is too late to do so. For Christ is coming to claim the nations as His inheritance and nothing will be able to stand in His way.

There is no question that we are seeing the world descend further into wickedness and depravity. It seems as though every day there is a new assault that is being launched against God and His people. Many Christians are concerned about the future for themselves and their families. The thought of sending children to public schools almost feels like sending them like sheep to slaughter. Biblical prophecy reveals we are facing a spiritual battle that will only intensify as we fast approach the last seven years before Jesus returns to earth to usher in His Millennial Kingdom.

However, as much as our adversaries would love to crush us, their efforts are futile. Psalm 2 is one of the few places in the Bible that actually speaks of God laughing. Why is He laughing? Why does He treat the kings of the earth with ridicule and mockery? Because no matter how hard they try, they have no chance of winning this Holy war.

Why do the nations rage and the people plot in vain? The kings of the earth set themselves, and the rulers take counsel together, against the Lord and against his Anointed, saying, “Let us burst their bonds apart and cast away their cords from us.” He who sits in the heavens laughs; the Lord holds them in derision. Then he will speak to them in his wrath, and terrify them in his fury, saying, “As for me, I have set my King on Zion, my holy hill.” Psalms 2:1-6

Sure the U.N. and W.E.F. organize their meetings, make secretive plans, and do their best to implement them. They convince themselves that they are in control and that they answer to no one. But little do they realize, their actions are leading them closer to their day of destruction…the Day of The Lord. You see, Psalm 2 is actually a prophecy about the end times. It is actually speaking about the times we are living in right now! God has decreed that His Son will rule from Zion. This WILL happen. No question about it. It will not be stopped by Satan or his demons. Jesus Christ, the Root of David, will rule on Earth at the appointed time. A time that is quickly approaching.

Are you ready for that Day to come? Are you ready to meet Jesus face to face? For Believers, this will be a time of rejoicing! Our Blessed Hope will finally be realized! For the rest of the world, a time of the greatest fear and despair imaginable as God pours out His wrath with the Trumpet (Revelation 8 & 9) and Bowl (Revelation 16) judgements. Jesus is the one the world must be concerned about. His righteous judgment will be carried out and no one will be able to escape it.
