5“But the Lord came down to see the city and the tower the people were building.” – Genesis 11
The title above is explained in this excellent piece done by the good
professor from The University of Oxford where he is an emeritus
professor of mathematics. He also teaches science and religion in the University of Oxford.
Don’t let his title fool you.
John Lennox is as down to earth as God makes ’em.
In this 15 minute video, John Lennox tells us the Bible is the tale of two cities.
Enjoy!
God’s blessings,

Chris, I enjoyed this immensely. I loved his comparison of modern skyscrapers to the power being sought at Babel.
The tale of two cities that he spoke about also reminds me of the two kingdoms in Scripture. One darkness. The other Light.
Thanks for sharing this!
Hi Sue.
I’m glad you liked this video.
I also like his comparison of Babel with modern
skyscrapers.
In the video, John Lennox tells us the Bible is the tale of two cities.
I like how Lennox reminded you that the tale of two cities is the two kingdoms in scripture.
One kingdom is darkness. The other kingdom is light.
Great observation, Sue!
You are welcome for this post, Sue, and I hope you guys have a wonderful week!
God’s blessings…
Chris 😊
Same to you, Chris. ❤️
Thank you, Sue! 💙
Trust and humility in God are like wet and water: inseparable. Thanks, Chris.
Hi Grant.
You’re welcome for this video, and thank you for your reply.
I think you nailed it when you stated:
“Trust and humility in God are like wet and water: inseparable.”
In spite of the high degrees that Dr. Lennox has, I’m sure you were impressed, like I was, that is as down to earth as God makes ’em.
I hope you have a wonderful week!
God’s blessings…
Chris 😊
A true tale of two cities!
Indeed, it is Pastor Jim.

Thank you for sharing this video, Chris! It was fascinating. I have done a bible study about Nimrod, and the tower of babel–and Professor Lennox really added to what I had already discovered. I love how he talks about which City are we living for—which City really gives our lives meaning? God bless you Chris—I am praying for your health, and your healing.
You’re welcome, Katie, and thank you for your
comment! It is, indeed, fascinating! The Tower
of Babel is always an interesting subject. As you
stated:
“Professor Lennox really added to what I had already discovered. I love how he talks about which City are we living for—which City really gives our lives meaning?”
Professor Lennox is so knowledgeable and at the
same time he is down to earth as I mentioned in
the post.
May God bless you as well, Katie. My health is
improving and I am so blessed to have so many
praying for me. Thank you for your prayers.
God’s blessings…
Chris 🦋

Thank you again, and
God’s blessings…
