A.I. Information Isn't the Bible/Gospel Truth

This post is pretty simple really: the information we can glean from A.I. isn't the Bible/Gospel truth.

This doesn't mean to say that A.I. is necessarily wrong. It just means that spiritually, A.I. is apocryphal: a hodgepodge of truths and not so much truths.

For example, I typed my name into A.I. At first, it admitted it hadn't heard of me. Yet when I added some more details, it began to embellish and to basically create a character with my name, yet who doesn't actually exist. I checked with Google, and my A.I. generated namesake who was meant to be a public figure who would have been find-able on Google simply didn't exist.

Basically, A.I. information has to be taken with a liberal pinch of salt.

We have to be careful when creating supposedly Biblical/Gospel content with A.I.'s help. I'm not saying A.I. can't give a textbook answer at times, but A.I. isn't indwelt by the Holy Spirit of God. We should trust ourselves as vessels of God's Spirit and students of the word over A.I., however clever it may be.

I think Balaam in the Bible is a classic example of someone who technically was theologically correct, but his heart was a million miles from the truth. A.I. doesn't even have a soul or a spirit, unlike even Balaam. I'm not saying that A.I. is necessarily Machiavellian/sinister, but it doesn't have a heart, and it isn't to be idolised as a source of spiritual truth.

What's your verdict on A.I.?

Power

 But for this purpose I have raised you up, to show you my power, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.Exodus 9:16 ESVhttps://bible.com/bible/59/exo.9.16.ESV  Secular historians point to the lack of extra-biblical evidence of Hebrew slavery in Egypt and ensuing exodus. But here in this verse, God describes how this anonymous Pharoah has been immortalised in the annals of the Hebrews, so that God is proclaimed in all the earth. The mighty men of the world might think they can stand against God and win, but resistance is futile!  The more stubborn Pharoah was, the more the Lord was able to display His power. The more insistent Pharoah was of keeping his slaves, the more unreasonable he appeared. It was a battle of wills, and the will of Yahweh prevailed.  In the end, Pharoah will have been broken by the plagues. In the final plague, his own firstborn son was killed, the next in line to the throne of the world superpower. He might have tried to put a brave...

Confession

 Ezra 10:2 ESV And Shecaniah the son of Jehiel, of the sons of Elam, addressed Ezra: “We have broken faith with our God and have married foreign women from the peoples of the land, but even now there is hope for Israel in spite of this.  God's people were at a low ebb. Although they were restored to the promised land, they were still in thrall to their Persian occupiers. Instead of committing to God, they had adulterated themselves with the unbelieving people around them. We might wonder what this has to do with us. Even in the new covenant era, we're commanded not to be unequally yoked with unbelievers. In other words, it's wrong for a Christian to marry a pagan. Ezra had led his people in a powerful prayer of repentance. It seemed to have had the desired effect. The people reacted well, as this verse begins to reveal. The people confessed their sin, but they didn't wallow in it. They don't nurse the hurt and indulge the misery. They were hopeful God would have mer...

Praise

  O Lord, open my lips, and my mouth will declare your praise. Psalm 51:15 ESV https://bible.com/bible/59/psa.51.15.ESV King David had been guilty of adultery and murder. Understandably, he felt muted. He didn't feel he could praise God publicly without coming across as a massive fraud. Yet David is described as a man after God's own heart. Yes, he fell deeply into sin. Yet this Psalm is a heartfelt prayer to God to restore Him. David knew that if God forgave him, he'd have a great testimony. There's hope for the worst of sinners! So he longed to open up his mouth in praises to God. Thankfully, God positively did answer his prayer. He did go on to praise God and write many more Psalms of worship to Him. Whatever we've done, there's hope for us yet, in the blood of Christ. 'Sovereign Lord, please help us to praise and worship You wholeheartedly, whatever our pasts may be. In Jesus' name we pray, amen'
