As you explore the Creation Museum’s walk through history, the fourth of the 7 C’s you’ll encounter is Confusion. Up to this point in history, all of mankind shared one language, but a little more than a hundred years after the global flood, we see the rise of a new rebellion with far-reaching consequences.

Though God had directed mankind to fill the earth as they multiplied post-flood, they chose to do the opposite. Rather than “be dispersed over the face of the whole earth” (Genesis 11:4), they schemed to build a city with a high tower, intending it as a testament to their own glory and an avenue for remaining together in opposition to God’s command.

Armed with this purpose, the people began construction. But God, in his infinite wisdom, chose to intervene by confusing their language. Without the easy, universal communication they had always known, the people gave up their building plans and began to scatter by groups as they ought to have done from the beginning.

Babel, as the city became known, marks the historical splitting of languages and explains the language families we see evidence of in the world today.

“Therefore its name was called Babel, because there the Lord confused the language of all the earth. And from there the Lord dispersed them over the face of all the earth“ (Genesis 11:9).

Our thinking should be based on God’s Word in every area. 

While many people claim that the evidence disproves the Bible, the actual evidence exists only in the present and is subject to interpretation depending on one’s worldview. 

There have been many great men of God who have unknowingly undermined the authority of God’s Word by inserting millions of years into Genesis. 

Matthew  27:29  states that Roman soldiers made a crown of thorns and put it on Jesus’ head before they crucified him. Due to the difficulties of identifying many of the plants mentioned in the Bible, we are not certain which plant was woven together to make this mock crown. 

Researchers have identified several thorny plants from Jerusalem at that time as the leading candidates for this infamous plants:
•Thorny Burnet (Sarcopoterium spinosum)
•Jerusalem Thorn (Paliurus spina-christi)
•Christ's Thorn Jujube (Ziziphus spina-christi)
•Acacia (Acacia farnesiana—Sweet Acacia pictured)

Regardless of which plant was used, its symbolism remains a powerful reminder of the pain and suffering that Jesus endured as he laid down his life for sinners. 

Imagine walking through the Garden of Eden! What would you want to see or experience first? 

God created everything in six literal days. 

Both eighth-century scholar John of Damascus and famed thirteenth-century explorer Marco Polo wrote about dragons. 

The animals that they described were believable, and these men intended to relay information about what they had discovered. 

Did these men actually see or hear about real dragons—creatures that are today called dinosaurs? 

The history of the Bible is true, so the gospel based on that history is also true.
