Christian Apologist Says Social Media Like the Tower of Babel

Christian Apologist Says Social Media Like the Tower of Babel

Ravi Zacharias spoke to a group with n interesting message, saying that the internet, instant, global communication may be the new Tower of Babel.

Zacharias, who wrote several books including Why Jesus? Rediscovering His Truth In An Age of Mass Marketed Spirituality, said the idea of commonality and coming together, which is found in social media, goes all the way back to the book of Genesis when mankind wanted to build a tower for its own glory and for its own edifice.

Zacahrias also ties it in to the responsibility and priveledge of young believers today.  He says:

"Young people you have an incredible opportunity to be a witness because of the capacities that are now invested in you. Jesus said greater things of these you shall do. …Become a peace builder, a bridge builder, not a destroyer, and the way you do that is through friendships and relationships, and through authentic character."

Top American Bible teacher makes new home in New Zealand

Challenge Weekly said that Chuck Missler had become impatient with those who maintain “that you can’t prove the Bible,” and draws on his professional background in the information sciences to point out that you can demonstrate the integrity and deliberate design of the 66 books we call the Bible, even though they were written by over 40 different authors.

It says that Missler insists that, “Once one discovers that every number, every place name, every detail has been skillfully and deliberately crafted, one then is confronted with a second discovery: that this deliberate design had to come from outside the dimension of time itself, since it anticipates history in advance — in such detail that it demands a supernatural origin.”

He points out, “Since God has the technology to create us in the first place, he certainly has the technology to get a message to us. The challenge is how does he authenticate his message — so that we know it is really from him, and not a contrivance or a fraud? By relying on his unique vantage point outside our time domain. Only he knows the end from the beginning.”
