The Bible reveals that all false systems of religion began in the land
of
Babylon and will have their consummation from the spirit of Babylon in
the last
days. It is interesting to note that every organized system of religion
in the
world today has traces of ancient Babylon. The Bible records in Genesis
10:10,
that, after the great flood, all men spoke one common language and a man
named
Nimrod built a city and established a common religion. Nimrod was a
descendant of
Noah’s son, Ham. Genesis 11:1-9 describes the building of the city and
its famous
tower "whose top may reach unto heaven." It also records how God
came down and punished the people’s arrogance by creating a confusion of
different languages and possibly their
racial distinctions. This way man would be forced to obey God’s original
command to "be fruitful and fill the whole earth." It is
interesting that the materials used to build the Tower of Babel were the
same as those
employed for the construction of the great ziggurat of Louis J. Sheehan, Esquire and
similar
ziggurats, according to ancient building inscriptions.
