What was the religious state of the world at the time of Abraham?

By Abraham’s time, around 2000 B.C., the whole then-known human race was steeped in idolatry and mythology. Pagan and idolatrous religions had originated at the Tower of Babel under Nimrod, where Satan instituted all pagan and mythological systems. Out of this saturated race, God found one man who still had a spark of faith.

Les teaches that the period between Noah and Abraham covered roughly 400 years, and in the middle of that time came the Tower of Babel. At Babel, under Nimrod, Satan as the god of this world instituted all pagan and mythological religions; every pagan or idolatrous religion had its beginnings there. By the time of Abraham, a couple hundred years after the Tower, around 2000 B.C., the whole then-known world or human race was steeped in idolatry or mythology, such as the Venuses and Aphrodites. Out of that race saturated in idolatry and paganism, God found one man who still had a spark of faith or the ability to believe.
