of Babel and its great tower. We live at an even more momentous time. We are witnessing the
completion of that which was begun more than four thousand years ago. Babel is being completed.
The divided nations, tongues, and tribes of man are being gathered together under one rule. They are
beginning to speak with one voice. They are calling for freedom from all moral restraint. They want
to be loosed from the rule of Yahweh. Certainly the psalmist had this present hour in mind when he
wrote the following words.

Psalms 2:1-3
Why do the nations assemble with commotion [uproar and confusion of voices], and why do the
people imagine (meditate upon and devise) an empty scheme? The kings of the earth take their places;
the rulers take counsel together against the Lord and His Anointed one (the Messiah, the Christ). They
say, “Let us break Their bands [of restraint] asunder and cast Their cords [of control] from us.”
[Amplified Bible]

We live at a troubling hour. The whole world lies in the power of the evil one, the great deceiver who
deceives the entire world. Men, having failed to learn from the errors of the past are repeating
behaviors that elicited the judgment of God. Babel, that wicked city, adversary of all that is righteous
and good, is once more raising its head toward the heavens. Unable to touch the Creator, humanity
under the inspiration of Satan will turn their wrath upon the saints of God. Daniel foresaw this day
and recorded the following words.

Daniel 12:7-11
And I heard the man dressed in linen, who was above the waters of the river, as he raised his right
hand and his left toward heaven, and swore by Him who lives forever that it would be for a time,
times, and half a time; and as soon as they finish shattering the power of the holy people (the saints),
all these events will be completed. As for me, I heard but could not understand; so I said, “My lord,
what will be the outcome of these events?” And he said, “Go your way, Daniel, for these words are
concealed and sealed up until the end time. Many will be purged, purified and refined; but the wicked
will act wickedly, and none of the wicked will understand, but those who have insight will
understand.”

Do you have understanding? Do you perceive what is happening at this hour? Do you see that the
tyrant Nimrod will rise again in the person of Satan’s appointed antichrist? Oppression will increase.
An hour is near when the righteous will no longer be able to work and speak openly. Nevertheless,
Satan will not have the last word. At the time appointed by the Father Christ will stand up and avenge
His holy ones.

Isaiah 26:20-21
Come, my people, enter into your rooms, and close your doors behind you; Hide for a little while,
until indignation runs its course. For behold, Yahweh is about to come out from His place to punish
the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; and the earth will reveal her bloodshed, and will no
longer cover her slain.

Revelation 18:4-10, 20
And I heard another voice from heaven saying, “Come out of [Babylon], my people, lest you share
