Episode 45: The Family Altar Audio Devotional – Day 11

Episode Summary:

And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech. And it came to pass, as they journeyed from the east, that they found a plain in the land of Shinar; and they dwelt there. And they said one to another, Go to, let us make brick, and burn them throughly. And they had brick for stone, and slime had they for morter. And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. (Genesis 11:1-4)

38 God told Abraham, by election and by grace, that, “I am going to bring you to Me, in an old age.” In other words, “I’m going to save you. I’m going to take you through. You’re going to live a long life. You’re going to have a child. Not…Being childless, Sarah; you go, and you’re going to have a child. And, in that child, I am going to save the world.” Now, before Abraham done one thing to merit it, but He just simply…God called him. That was all.

39 He was just a Chaldean down there in the city of Ur, come down in the valleys of Shinar, from the tower of Babel, from idol-worship. I think his daddy was an idol-worshiper. And I think Laban, after he got down there, proved it, he had them idols. Where could he a-got them, if they didn’t come out of the tower of Babel? And out of Ham’s people come Nimrod. Nimrod set up the tower of Babel, which was idol-worship, the first idol-worship on the earth.

40 Now, and watch that Babel tower come right on down, Babel, and right on down through there and end up over here in Revelation; a Christian, religious idolatry, pretending to be Christianity. Oh! John seen her in Revelation 17, admired her, how she set, looked like, and wore the Name of Jesus and everything else, and yet persecuted and martyred the saints of the living God. The Angel said, “Come here, and I’ll show you who she is.” Said, “She’s a great church that sets over many, on seven hills, and rules over the earth, and so forth. How she drank the blood of the martyrs of Christ!” Oh, mercy!

41 People, we’re living in the end time. How many of you people heard years ago down here when they was going to have me arrested down here for preaching on that “mark of the beast”? When I said that Mussolini, when he first come in power twenty-some-odd years ago, I said, “If Mussolini ever goes towards Ethiopia, mark this down, there will never be peace till Jesus Christ comes.” And I said, “There’ll be three great isms, Communism, Facism, and Nazism.” And I said, “They’ll wind up in one ism, and that one ism will dominate the world and will burn the Vatican City.” You remember me saying that years and years and years ago. And just exactly that way!

42 I said, “Just before that time comes, that automobiles…” Which was built that old straight back, twenty years ago or twenty-five years ago. You can remember twenty years anyhow. And I said, “They’ll look like an egg. They’ll be shaped. That’s a vision. Be something on the shape of something like that.” And that’s the way they’ll be just before the Rapture.

43 But God’s just now loosening up the church everywhere, getting in order now so He can get into the Rapture, got to give it rapturing faith before it can go in the Rapture.
