What was the tower of Babel actually meant to accomplish?
The Tower of Babel was not built to physically reach heaven but as a religious center to usurp God's throne. It aimed to unify humanity under Nimrod in rebellion against God's command to scatter, replacing God's instructions with Satan's agenda.
Les explains that after Noah's sons repopulated the Middle East for 200 years, humanity gathered at the Tower of Babel under Nimrod in total rebellion against God's command to scatter and repopulate the planet. The tower was not intended to take brick and stone all the way to heaven. Instead, it was a place of religion designed to usurp the throne of God religiously, which has always been Satan's goal. They planned to replace God's instructions with what Satan would promote.
