Q & A
What is the main argument presented in the script regarding the Tower of Babel?
-The main argument is that the historical accounts of the Tower of Babel in the Bible align with real-world historical and cultural evidence, suggesting that the Biblical narrative is accurate. This is in contrast to secular views that are influenced by theories like evolution and the Big Bang.
How does the speaker refute the secular timeline and the Big Bang theory?
-The speaker refutes the secular timeline and the Big Bang theory by asserting a belief in the Biblical account of creation, stating that an all-powerful God created all things in six days and that the fossil record is better explained by a worldwide flood rather than by millions or billions of years of evolution.
What is the speaker's view on the theory of evolution and its relation to the origin of humans?
-The speaker does not believe in the theory of evolution and instead adheres to the Biblical account that all humans are descendants of Noah and, further back, of Adam and Eve. They argue that the Biblical narrative provides a more accurate and authoritative history of human origins.
Why does the speaker believe that the Tower of Babel is a significant event in history?
-The speaker believes the Tower of Babel is significant because it represents a moment when humanity attempted to defy God's will, leading to the dispersion of people across the Earth and the confusion of languages. This event, according to the speaker, is supported by historical and cultural evidence that aligns with the Biblical narrative.
How does the speaker connect the descendants of Noah to various modern-day ethnic groups?
-The speaker connects the descendants of Noah to modern-day ethnic groups by tracing genealogies mentioned in the Bible, such as Japheth, Shem, and Ham, and their respective offspring. They map these genealogies to regions and cultures around the world, suggesting that these Biblical figures are the ancestors of specific ethnic groups.
What does the speaker suggest about the age of people before and after the events at the Tower of Babel?
-The speaker suggests that before the events at the Tower of Babel, people lived much longer lives, with some living over 400 years. After the dispersion, the average lifespan began to decline significantly, with people living around 230 years or less, which they attribute to genetic bottlenecks caused by the flood and the Tower of Babel.
How does the speaker interpret the cultural and historical evidence supporting the Biblical account of the Tower of Babel?
-The speaker interprets cultural and historical evidence as supporting the Biblical account by pointing out that many cultures around the world have kept track of their histories, which often match the Biblical narrative. They argue that this consistency indicates the reliability of the Biblical history, including the gospel.
What is the speaker's stance on the relationship between the Biblical narrative and the concept of race?
-The speaker asserts that the Biblical narrative refutes the concept of higher and lower races, as all humans are descendants of Adam and Eve, and more recently, Noah. They argue that the idea of distinct races is a myth and that the Bible presents a unified view of humanity.
How does the speaker address the idea that the Earth's population dispersed from Africa according to evolutionary theory?
-The speaker addresses this idea by challenging the evolutionary worldview and asserting that, according to the Bible, all people dispersed from the region of Babel after the confusion of languages, not from Africa. They argue that the Biblical account is the higher authority on the matter.
What does the speaker suggest about the linguistic diversity resulting from the Tower of Babel event?
-The speaker suggests that the linguistic diversity observed today is a direct result of the confusion of languages that occurred at the Tower of Babel, as described in the Bible. This event led to the dispersion of people and the development of various languages across the Earth.

Transcripts
we're in a culture where people have
ignored the Bible they've ignored most
historical accounts why because they
have a Rewritten mythological history
that they believe and when you actually
look at real history all around the
world cultures kept track of their
history and you know what when you
actually look at it it goes back and
matches what we read in the scriptures
and you know what else is true if the
history in the Bible is true well that
means the gospel which is found in that
same history is also true I've studied
the subject of the tower Babel oh my
goodness probably 10 15 years now you
know we're in a culture that's heavily
influenced by a secular worldview and
that actually affects the way people
look at the Tower of Babel for example
the secular timeline here they have
essentially there was nothing no time or
space something pops into existence from
nothing rapidly explodes or expands
that's called The Big Bang they claimed
this happened about 13 to 15 billion
years ago as The Story Goes you get the
sun and the Stars forming the Earth and
the moon finally forming you get the
first oceans then through random
processes chemicals come together and
form the first life and it evolves
further and further further to where you
get some sort of monkey like creature
then you get some sort of aplike
creature and then you get humans and
modern Apes one of the things that
Charles Darwin himself taught was that
people evolved Out of Africa and the
reason he people he taught people
evolved Out of Africa was because that's
where we find the Apes the great apes
are there that view has really started
to popularize in our culture saying that
people evolved Out of Africa and then
had to go to different parts of the
world all of a sudden the tower Babel
came under attack the account in
scripture where everybody was originally
at this one General place right there at
Babel and they were scattered by God now
all of a sudden that was called into
question because of Darwin's view here
but of course an evolutionary worldview
is errant Big Bang is arant I do not
believe those things I believe scripture
God created all things in six days which
is not a problem for an all powerful God
and uh there was a worldwide flood which
accounts for most of the rock layers
that contain fossils those are not
evidence of millions and billions of
years as people came off of the Ark the
Lord told them to be fruitful multiply
and fill the Earth instead the
descendants of Noah came together and
built a city and Tower and said let's
not be scattered they tried to defy God
God came down confused their language
and Scattered them abroad to the face
all over the Earth you see there's no
greater Authority than God in his word
Hebrews 6:13 says when God made a
promise to Abraham because he could
swear by no one greater he swore by
himself so when it comes down to did
people evolve Out of Africa and come
from there or did they come from Noah
and at the region there at bab and go to
different parts of the world there's no
question the word of God is a higher
authority you know God was there God I
witnessed these things Charles Darwin
did not now what's interesting if we
actually think about this in our culture
too there's another uh sideline debate
to this in an evolutionary worldview
you're evolving from some lower creature
into Mankind and in that particular view
you have higher and lower races and
Darwin's view was that there was about 4
to five races and he would talk about
some of those races he actually went so
far as to say the Caucasians should
exterminate the other races in his book
The Descent of Man that doesn't mean
that evolution is a cause of racism
racism was around before that but fuel
was added to the fire as a result of an
evolutionary worldview but see when we
start with scripture no no no we're
we're all One race it's called the human
race we all go back to Adam and Eve we
all go back actually to Noah as well you
know at the tower of ababel the Bible
gives us a lot more information than you
might think in Genesis chap 10 it gives
you a breakdown you know those
genealogies that is a a set of these
different genealogies the three sons of
Noah shim ham and japheth and then we
see their descendants and their
descendants and and how it was split
apart as a result of what happened in
Genesis 11 1-9 now I like to look at it
graphically and that's what I've got
shown up here at the very top in red if
you can see as long as you're not color
blind you can see that Noah is in red
there at the top then the next line you
have japa shim and ham and then you can
see further breakdowns now sometimes we
look at those names we just skip right
over those names you know years of
studying the tower Babel I look at these
names and I I get excited about it
because I look at them and I'm like okay
certain people groups came out of these
different people or that one right there
is my ancestor and so forth it really is
exciting and you might think really you
know what your ancestor actually a lot
of people can figure it out generically
you know jath has seen as the father of
most of the European nations some of the
north Asian Nations a little bit of the
Middle Eastern Nations shim is a lot of
the Middle Eastern and the Far Eastern
Nations like India for example is also
descendants of shim ham has a lot of
people as far as China as well as Africa
some down the melee Peninsula uh
extending down into uh melanesia some of
those kinds of places but I actually
wrote an article on our website called
how many human Generations are there
from Adam until today and what I'm doing
I'm specific specifically looking at my
own lineage one of my lineages on my
mother's side actually goes all the way
back and ties in to the same lineage as
the Queen of England what's interesting
about the Queen of England is she has a
lineage that goes all the way back to
Noah and all the way back to Adam so as
soon as I got tied into that I could
actually count it up and uh in that
particular lineage Adam would be my 84th
great-grandfather Noah would be my 74th
great-grandfather that actually puts me
in the 87th generation you know to get
to great-grandfather level there I
actually tallied this up I'm using the
common usage method the consanguinity
method which is actually a lot lot
easier when you're looking at stuff
really Broad and long long range but
Queen Elizabeth would be my 42 cousin uh
by this lineage look at this Jesus would
be my 139th cousin what a way to witness
to people right let me tell you about my
cousin so it really is neat you know
Christ stepped into history to become
our relative we need to remember that
but let's jump back to scripture here
Genesis 11:4 and they said come let us
build ourselves a city and a tower whose
top is in the heavens let us make a name
for ourselves L we be scattered over the
face of the whole earth so this was the
people trying to defy God and of course
the God God wasn't God wasn't going to
let him get away with this so he came
down he confuse their language I've had
people say well where is this you know
where where is Babel where where did all
this take place it would be in modern
day Iraq is where this occurred uh in
the Bible it's Eric Eric is one of the
names listed there in Genesis chapter 10
one of the early cities that's where the
name Iraq actually comes from it would
have been right in this area and that's
where people were then scattered to go
around to different parts of the world
now I want you to notice this Arrow from
Babel going down to Africa see in the
secular worldview what they do they have
that Arrow actually going from Africa
right up to about where where everything
splits apart up there if you just
reverse their Arrow they'd have it about
right but I've had people say Well when
did all this occur well big picture it's
obviously After the flood because it's
Noah's descendants but it was before the
call of Abraham okay so Abraham was not
at the tower Bible you know his people
actually came well after the tower Bible
now Abraham is a descendant of the
caldes the caldan were a Hebrew group
the E Group the EO group that's where
that comes from Hebrew comes from ever
Archbishop James Usher put the timeline
at 2242 BC he haded about 106 years
after the flood uh which would have been
2348 BC uh just to give you an idea in
his particular lineage I've seen a
number of chronologists put it as early
as when payle was born 101 as high as
130 years uh renowned archaeologist Dr
Clifford Wilson died just a few years
ago but uh he believed that this
particular area there in the ancient
ruins of Babylon might have actually
been the original tower Babel Foundation
this large pool he says at modern
Babylon is over the ruins of an early
structure that was possibly the original
Tower of Babel here's a reconstruction
of this etminan Tower uh you can see how
you can go up the stairs and you can
kind of go around and as it goes up
you've got the stairs as you go on
around it soort of looked something like
this and if you use Google Earth you can
actually look down on it it and here is
that site in the archaeological remains
of ancient Babylon and you can see how
it was definitely a square and you can
see where that initial stepway uh was
here let me back up so you can kind of
see that you know we're looking straight
onto that stepway as you go up initially
you can kind of see that down here on
the lower side of it what's interesting
too is the Tower of Babel itself that
Hebrew word for Tower is the Hebrew word
migdal which means Tower of course but
it also means figuratively a pyramidal
bed of flowers so it has a a connotation
uh of of being pyramidal in its shape
which is interesting a lot of people as
they left the Tower of bab went to
different parts of the world you know
particularly they they'd settle closer
and then they'd move out farther and
move out farther a lot of these cultures
initially started to build some of these
towers very similar to what we find at
the Tower of Babel just in Mesopotamia
alone there's over 30 different
ziggurats and some of them have some
interesting names the tower to Heaven
and Earth and that sort of thing which
gives you an idea they were trying to
build it up high definitely much higher
than everything else in the area but not
up into the that's a misconception
they're trying to build something up
into the stratosphere here I'm going to
look at some of the people groups so I'm
going to jump into some of these where
did the Irish and the Scots come from
now I put them together for a reason
because some of these guys actually
interchanged some of their positions and
intermixed and so forth Magog it is his
descendants that actually went into
Ireland in fact we have three ancient
lineages of the Irish going back to
Magog just to give you an idea here's
one of them uh that's uh found in James
Anderson's Royal genealogies book from
the early 1730s you go Noah japheth
Magog baath fenua farsa new and then
that's when you go down to the line to
Milo who goes right in there if you look
at the Scots uh the Scots have one here
that go down through uh Magog as well
down to Bath farsy Phineas and then
refia and he was known as the Scott and
that might well be where one of the
names actually came from the Scots in
that particular instance so we do see
some of these connections there's quite
a bit of history on this if you want to
look more of it up well let's look at
the Germans the English and the
Scandinavians I mean what are the odds
they would all come together because
they all have the same basic descendants
if you actually look at it specifically
the the English come out of the angle
tribes and the Saxon tribes and some of
the J tribes which were some of the
Germanic tribes a lot of the
Scandinavians actually came out of the
Germans as well just to give you a taste
now the old name for Germany and the old
founder of the German people was ashz
Noah jath Gomer and then ashz we
actually have uh ancient lineage that
goes through ashz down through Manis all
the way down to wolfheim uh sck sticker
of a United Germany uh ashz actually
originally settled there just south of
the Black Sea and then he went to the
northern part of the Black Sea the old
black Sea's name used to be the ashkan
sea named for ashz from there he moved
up to Central Europe with 20 of his sons
one of them was danus which is where the
Danes came from one of his sons was
Sarma which is where the sarmatians came
from and so forth and so a lot of the
people in Central and Northern Europe
actually were descendants of ashz if you
actually look at the age decline of
people from the time of Noah moving
forward the ages really start to decline
for example Noah lived 350 Years After
the flood and all total lived about 950
years his son shim lived about 600 years
about 500 of those years were After the
flood and then you see about three
generations in there in shim's line
where they were living uh over 400 years
then after the events at the tower Babel
they were living about 230 years or so
and then they really start to decline
and uh you know if you look Abraham
lived 175 years you go down Moses lived
120 years but we see that decline as it
starts to go down uh I've had people say
well you know it was after the flood
maybe it was because of meting as soon
as people started to eat meat maybe that
triggered it because it wasn't until
after the flood people were first
allowed to eat meat but you know what
there's been people who' have been
vegetarians their whole lives they don't
live 900 years old uh some people
thought uh maybe it was increased oxygen
or environmental changes things like
that you know people studied that for
quite some time there's a little bit of
benefit but overall it's actually more
detrimental when you start to add
increased oxygen you add free radicals
that causes bigger problems too that's
why we take antioxidants for example
some people think maybe there were some
anatomical issues some mutations things
like that the biggest thing is probably
genetic bottlenecks at the flood and at
the tower of ble so that's when we start
to see the big shifts of the decrease in
age there may be other factors involved
if if you just look after shim there was
three generations uh that on average
lived about 445 years after Babel
specifically you have three generations
where people living on average about 236
years and then boom it really starts to
drop off significantly after that hey
where did the French Portuguese and
Kelts come from huh it's convenient that
those are all put together too you know
it's almost like I knew the answer to
this question well let's look at this uh
the French the old name for the French
were the GS or the GS the Kelts so the
Kelts actually dominated certain parts
of Europe Portugal Port of Gaul you can
see the connection in there they're Gish
people uh even the Welsh were Gish
people a lot of the Kelts that were in
Britany and you know the British Isles
and some of those areas they intermixed
with some of the Irish and the Scots up
in those areas some of them actually uh
went down and ended up in galatia
they're more kind of in Eastern Europe
and then as far down as down in Turkey
there was an area known as galatia as
well where did the Canaanites and the
Chinese come from so you have the
Israelites were given the land of Canaan
because of their sin and that included
the the hivites and the uh girgashites
the amorites Hittites jebusites
jebusites is where Jerusalem is but the
sinites think of the Sinai Peninsula
Wilderness of sin Mount Si uh that that
particular area there a lot of those
sinites actually moved out and moved
away and where did they go to they
actually went to what we call the land
of Cam that's what it's mentioned as in
the Bible where is the land of Cam it's
actually the land of the sinites the
land of what we call China today manasse
and Israel will have it that the Chinese
are intended China is indeed called by T
the country of the sinites where did the
Greeks and the Japanese come from boy I
threw the Japanese in there almost like
like it was an afterthought here the
Greeks are pretty well known we know
where the Greeks came from they came
from Javin whenever you see Greeks in
the Old Testament the Hebrew behind that
is Javin want to know his grandsons here
Javin so Javin and his descendants you
know we we see reflection of them all
over throughout uh areas around the
Mediterranean Sea of course Greece
Macedonia uh certain places of asiia
minor a lot of those were descendants of
Javin I mentioned tarish earlier in
Spain that was a descendants of Javin
that went out there some of them went
all over the place some of them went as
far as Japan that was a Trading Outlet
for them and people had recognized that
of course the sinites came in and
dominated much of these areas as well so
you got to think there's a lot of other
people groups in there but we at least
have that particular lineage traced uh
in there as well where did the Egyptians
come from this is also a very well-known
one the Egyptians are mentioned quite a
bit in scripture Genesis 1210 for
example now there was a famine in the
land so Abram went down to Egypt the
Hebrew behind that is mitz that's how
that's pronounced even though it looks
like mream it's mitam and mitam uh is
one of Noah's grandsons and so that's
actually where the name minis comes from
uh some of the early Emperors of Egypt
for example but mitam came down here and
settled in what we call Egypt today uh
even the Philistines are descendants of
mitam as well uh so are the luum lios
some of the people in Libya uh ended up
being descendants of mitam as well what
about the Africans so a lot of times
people just want to lump all the
Africans together but they're really not
I mean if we just look at Egypt for
example they are a distinct people group
if you look at uh the Moors for example
and other parts of North Africa
northwest Africa specifically uh the
Moors are descendants of put put
originally settled in Libya and then
moved farther west a lot of places in
West Africa our descendants of put uh
Kush uh is that that's actually the the
the name for e ethopia a lot of
Ethiopians will still call themselves
kushites today so they came down here
and settled just below where mium was at
they actually wared with mium that is
the Egyptians for a while but a lot of
the lower part of Africa was actually uh
uh settled by Kush as well right of the
Russians come from a lot of the Russian
groups came out of two primary groups
you have Magog and mesek Magog moves up
here between the black and Caspian Sea a
lot of the cian groups came out of them
and of course that's where the Irish and
the Scots came from they came out of
Magog as well some of them migrating
over to where Spain was and then moving
on up so if you move over to mesek mesek
goes up they were the north Russians up
farther uh their language family would
include a lot of the The Finnish groups
the Baltic states Estonia laia Lithuania
some of those areas uh even uh some
people in Hungary share that similar
language family which is quite a unique
language family but let's just step back
now and look at a big picture at Asia
Africa and then Australia as people
start to migrate down there so you can
see in Africa you got put you got lower
Kush you've got jock and all across
India there uh the mes and the Persians
came out of media and some of those
areas going all the way down into uh
India as well tarma Magog tubal and
mesek along the top continue to migrate
out in those areas you see the Sinai
dominate much of East Asia certain
people came out of Gomer and Javin there
in Japan now if you look though I want
you to follow this line you see Kush
right in the the the very middle of some
of this Kush of siba kush of siba goes
right down the melee Peninsula Kush is
uh where the Ethiopians came from in
Africa but that's also where the Hindu
Kush came from that's actually where the
tribe of CA uh siba in uh the melee
Peninsula that area came from as well
now notice they continued on down and
there's actually genetic ties with the
Australian Aborigines to the descendants
of siba there in the melee Peninsula and
they're also connected genetically to
some of the people in Kush in Africa and
that kind of surprised people people but
it actually makes sense from a
historical perspective what's the point
ancient history and geography actually
confirm Biblical history over and over
and over again I was just giving you a
taste of what we found out there and and
and here's why this is important we're
in a culture where people have ignored
the Bible they've ignored the history in
the Bible they've now I'm I'm going to
this is very bold they've ignored most
historical accounts historical accounts
from all over the world they've ignored
most of them why because they have a
Rewritten mythological history that they
believe that brand new history Rewritten
by people like Charles Darwin that we
evolved Out of Africa has been taken
over and has been treated as though it's
real history but it's nothing but a myth
and when you actually look at real
history all around the world cultures
kept track of their history and you know
what when you actually look at it it
goes back and matches what we read in
the scriptures and you know what's else
is true if the history in the Bible's
true well that means the gospel which is
found in that same history is also true
you see I don't want us to miss Christ
in all this yeah I can talk about the
Tower of Babel I can talk about people
groups I can talk about the history I
can talk about age declines I can talk
about those things for hours and hours
and hours but let's not miss Christ in
this when you look at the account
Genesis 11:7 let us go down and confuse
their language that's a reflection of
the language we see in Genesis 1 126 let
us make man in our own image you see the
plurality of God and what I mean by the
plurality of God it's singular and yet
plural I mean there's something
fascinating about that that's a
reflection of the Triune God that's
seeing Christ right there intimately
evolved we see it in Isaiah as well even
that word for Lord I am A variation the
name Jehovah that's where this actually
comes from I am who I am it's a
variation of it in Exodus uh 3:14 this
was a name revealed to Moses in John
8:58 Jesus uses that before Abraham was
I am he said you see a reflection of
Christ right there that word Lord is
Jehovah A variation of I am notice the
mild judgment here which shows the grace
of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ not
too long before the events at the tower
Bible there was a very violent flood to
judge a very violent group of people and
here we have people already starting to
defy God disobey him and the Lord
confused their language but what's
fascinating is even though we saw those
languages confused as a result of Jesus
Christ his death burial and Resurrection
he gave the gift of the Holy Spirit
where at Pentecost we saw the languages
come back together it gave us a taste of
what heaven's going to be like
