The “Tower of Babel” means
man trying to work his own way to heaven,
trying to get through his own personal
effort that which God had already given
him.
[John 16:12-13, 17:3]
Personality is our greatest enemy.
Self, individuality, is divine, but the
personality which we have let cluster
around the real self is the enemy. This
personal belief always tries to build its
own way to heaven. Our effort, our
motive, is to be impersonal. The Tower of
Babel we try to build is sure to end in
confusion.
