After generations of mankind’s constant outpouring of wickedness, the Lord decided to send a flood to wipe out Creation, saving only those men and creatures whom he had chosen to enter the ark that he had commanded to be built. The Bible clearly shows us that sin continued through Noah and his family through the generations, and at the Tower of Babel, we’ll see that men chose to use their God-given creativity to defy God Himself, disobeying God’s command to fill the earth. The opt instead, to make a name for themselves, but God graciously scatters them. Later, God decides to make one man, a man with both faults and virtues, into a father of nations, and we meet that man today.
