Lets see if the Lord will help me put together what I'm trying to say and convey  :character0009:

Gen 11:1     And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.


Language and speech are two different, yet related words in meanings (almost twins but yet still separate)...

Language   http://www.answers.com/topic/language

* Communication of thoughts and feelings through a system of arbitrary signals, such as voice sounds, gestures, or written symbols.

* Such a system including its rules for combining its components, such as words.

Speech  http://www.thefreedictionary.com/speech

*  The faculty or act of speaking.

*The faculty or act of expressing or describing thoughts, feelings, or perceptions by the articulation of words.


Speech is more associated with sound:  voice, articulation, fluency

Where as language is associated with rules of the gestures, words, signs, etc.. and how they are used and utilized..

Gen 11:1     And the whole earth was of one language, and of one speech.

This verse is saying that they not only had one language (sets of words or symbols), but a set and single standard of expressing with these words. One understanding! So why would the Lord confound them on this if they were all talking and thinking in one unified way?  huh

Well why do some dread, what is it called? NWO? One world under one government...

Gen 11:4      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.

One name  huh

Gen 11:6     And the LORD said, Behold, the people [is] one, and they have all one language; and this they begin to do: and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do.


This verse holds a key to understanding... Why does prayer work when more than one comes together and agree on it???   :innocent:

and now nothing will be restrained from them, which they have imagined to do. < What is an image and just how much life and power can a group of many cause the image to 'seem' to live...

Rev 13:14 And deceiveth them that dwell on the earth by [the means of] those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make an image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live.
