The 1015 - Genesis and Technology

Genesis 11 shows that the problem has never been technology itself, but the human heart that uses God’s gifts to pursue self-glory, self-sufficiency, and life apart from Him. At Babel, humanity united around making a name for themselves rather than fulfilling God’s purposes, revealing the same temptation we still face today to be mastered by the things we create and consume. Yet even in judgment, God’s intervention was an act of mercy and grace, and the story ultimately points us forward to the unity God desires—not around ourselves, but around the good news of Jesus Christ.
