The problem didn’t start with AI or even computers. It started with the age of manufacturing.

We continue at an alarming rate to wipe out meaningful work from society and in my opinion this is one of the biggest tools of the devil that is crept in not just to society but the church. Granted we have to work where we are at and given the resources we have in the society we are in. Daniel did not try to transform King Nebuchadnezzar or Babylon. He did his job. But we are living under the New Covenant. And we are children of the promise. It has amazed me and continues to amaze me how at the end of the constant ignoring of the word of God we are pointing fingers at gender and abortion, and I’m not negating the truth of the word of God and some things do need to be fought for, but we’ve been giving in for at least 150 years in so many different areas. It’s to the point as it is written, “…because they didn’t count the knowledge of God worth retaining he gave them over…” Romans

It isn’t the problem with gender or giving into sexual immorality, the problem is we have lost our love for God and with that our love the people.

You are able to see the fall in Russia. You can see the setback in Germany under Hitler.

You are 100% correct. We cannot do nothing. But take courage, because Jesus Christ is still Lord. I have witnessed one of the most amazing things that has been there for millennium I just was blind. I have witness people with the do not have the knowledge of God walking in the grace of God, obeying God’s command in Genesis to take care of the Earth.

I have witnessed people who do not have the knowledge of the Bible, yet they somehow by the grace of God have understanding that they are to be kind and compassionate and gentle. They are no more perfect than the children of God are perfect.

Look up the Luddites. At the age of manufacturing the heart of mankind with screaming out. I am an artist personality. While I cannot draw a stick figures I am in gifted musician and I in the grace of God Walk in the power of God in the area in the kingdom of God he has put me in, but I have walked alongside many artists and Artisans and musicians. Why is it shocking to us that homelessness abounds? In all of our great intelligence we have destroyed lives and that’s been going on for a long time now.

Regarding the Luddites I do not believe in violence. That is not of the kingdom of Jesus Christ. It’s time. It’s time to stop focusing on the few things that don’t make us have to make changes, and just really take a look at what’s been going on and creeping into the church for a long time now.

Because we didn’t count the knowledge of God worth retaining, we didn’t hear that the hurt and the cries of people that were being rescued by the amazing intelligence of shoving everybody into factories instead of actually using your hands to create beautiful clothes or wood products or bowls. And it’s a really simple thing because we just love our stuff. There are a few things that make me more afraid than walking into these Walmarts and even the Mardels. And a number of years ago I thought it’s going to finally implode. I do not grasp the blindness. We didn’t bother to think about the consequences of constantly mass-producing and supporting A system that mass produces.

You are correct 100%. We haven’t been doing anything for at least 150 years from my perspective with a few exceptions and I have the utmost admiration for the Mennonites and the Amish who believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ and salvation through grace alone through faith not by works so no one can boast. I may not agree with all of their theology, but when I look at Christian Aid Ministries I cannot denounce their walk and their faith and their love. And I often have wondered in recent years whether God would prefer we be theologically correct and sound, don’t get me wrong I will never deny Jesus Christ or the basic tenants of the Apostles Creed, and I know without a shadow of a doubt it is only Jesus Christ that we will stand in front of, there will be no other God there is no other creator of this universe neither is there any other savior, but I have begun to wonder whether he’s so concerned about us getting our theology right or if he’d rather us just work on our love. Exactly how many Bible studies do we need? Forgive me because I’m called to be gentle and I am not mature yet in that area. But he is gentle. And the wisdom that comes from above is peace loving. We were meant to be Salt and Light but what does Jesus Christ say when the salt loses its saltiness? It is no longer worth anything except to be trampled on by men.

We need a miracle. The first thing that needs to happen is we need to realize we do not have the ability or the power in ourselves to do anything. And if we don’t think that’s true, give up our Starbucks and eating out for the rest of your life and give to the poor. Easy no problem.

What part of take up your cross do we not understand beloved for whom Christ died? And always I am preaching to the person in the mirror. I am just as guilty in this generation and I cried to God to deliver my life and my family’s and my children and my circle of friends and the church Circle that I’m in and the body of Believers in the western world. He said to come out from among them and touch no unclean thing.

Billy Graham said, and I pray I have this quote correct, it is the father’s job to judge. It is the Holy Spirit’s job to convict. It is our job to love. And trust me, mocking and making fun of people is not the love of Jesus Christ.

If it is tell me how Jesus has mocked you? And made fun of you for your arrogance and your pride and your greed and your self-centeredness and your cowardice? Everything but sexual immorality, because maybe you don’t have that issue. Jesus Christ is Lord of his church. It is not AI that is going to destroy the world. It is not computers which have taken away countless jobs because of our lack of balance, and Counting the age of manufacturing and then computers I’m thinking if we can’t handle a knife maybe not to start working with nuclear weapons? What has to change?

We. Need. To. Love.

And we need to combat the lies which Colson Center does a pretty good job of a lot of the time.

I was trying to speak to a group of homeless at the Colorado Springs rescue missions, on a day the Lord saw fit that I needed to be homeless, which was a very interesting story but anyway, and God was good and I really liked that place it’s a good place, but I was trying to tell them to avoid Ai and not to use it. It’s only going to wipe out more jobs it’s only going to disconnect people further, but people are self-centered and prideful. Oh yes that also includes the person in my mirror. And this man with a guitar that had some pretty good Tunes coming out of it, argued fervently for 30 minutes with me because now he can make it big. Using AI he can finally get noticed. And he’s just going to go on and do his music and he’s going to use AI to create, along with a million other people, all in an effort to be noticed to look really good and to be like those other people. But that wasn’t the Kingdom of Heaven that is not the kingdom of heaven.

What would be amazing is if the modern Protestant Christian churches would acknowledge the gift of God upon our brothers and sisters called to that walk which not all are called to, in the Mennonites and the Amish and ask if they could help us learn to simplify?

How many outfits do we purchase every year? How often do we spend time energy and money shopping because we are bored? Why are we bored? Because we’re selfish and the only ones we’re going to take care of is us in our family. Because we are obedient to the ways of this world and the rules of the kingdom of this world. This is my time. This is my energy. This is my money. Ever wonder why Christians when they’re bored and want to go shopping don’t just go find a homeless person and take them shopping? Oh they don’t deserve it they didn’t work that hard I work so hard for this money this is my reward. Hello people what part of the Cross do we not understand? And again forgive me sarcasm I do not believe is part of Jesus.

Okay so what is it going to take? Let’s start with the Colson Center and the Colson fellows. I double dog dare you to get on your knees and ask God what you are to give up. Oh hello I guess I need to do the same with my family. I finally got the email out to my family that God put on my heart 2 years ago because it’s really scary to say hey guys I think that there’s going to be a flood and I really think that God desires that we make a boat and get in it, not just talk about it. Jesus Christ is my boat. Yes. Thank God we are saved by grace alone through faith not by works so no one can boast. However the word of God also says Faith Works by love. And it is also written faith without works is dead. How does this work? I have absolutely no idea you’re going to need to talk to Jesus about that but this much I know I can talk about Jesus and quote scripture all day long but if I’m not loving and doing what it says, my knowledge is nothing. 1st Corinthians 13.

The lord loves you so much and the things that we have done well, he sees. He sees those of us that are at times and spiritual hospital and the only thing we can do is cling to Faith in Jesus Christ and know that he is our salvation and that we look at the works that he has done for us. But then there are those who are mature who have been walking with Jesus and have knowledge of the word of God for a long time that haven’t come through abuse that are actually doing very well, and we need to admit that the fear of God did not go out at the cross. Our Savior whom we confess and say that we obey commanded us to fear God. To fear Him. When We Fear God there is no other fear necessary in our lives. And I do firmly believe God looks at the heart, because all the glory goes to him alone and so there are times where we are Fallen we’re all of a sudden like King David we wake up and suddenly realize that we were the guilty one. As Nathan the prophet tells him of a story because King David really did love his sheep, of a man that killed the Beloved pet sheep of a poor man and David in his righteous anger spoke judgment against that evil man! At what point do we hear the voice of the spirit of God saying you are the man…?

The poor are crying out. We don’t even think about our servants and possibly actual slaves around the world that make our wonderful electronics and all of our beautiful clothes for us. Because they did not count the knowledge of God worth retaining he gave them over. Nothing is impossible with God beloved. I am asking and I know what 100,000 Christians are praying that there will be renewal and Revival but it will not come until the person in the mirror understands, you are the man. And until the person in the mirror decides that it’s more important today to pray and to get on our knees in our homes and cry to God then it is to sit down and watch the game or the horror movie or the phone.

Regarding economy by all means take a stand against any foolishness with AI. And prayerfully the Christians will understand and become the leaders that God calls them to be first and foremost in humility not arrogance, not thinking that we’re better than non-christians, no probably we were the ones who needed the saved the worst, so he figured he better get us first, at least that’s my take on it, but humble ourselves before the Living God. I double dog dare, you want to see Revival, I double dog dare the leaders of our country that call themselves Christian to spend the next two years writing apology letters publicly for the sins they’ve committed against mankind. Because we want the world to publicly repent. So by all means we should lead by example. Heavenly Father forgive us for our greed. Forgive us for Generations now of people who didn’t care whether the artists and Artisans and those you gifted to sing and to create Beautiful Things For Your Glory we’re being shut up and shut off because we were so smart and we could do things so much faster and better. Forgive us when we have casually and callously purchase so many beautiful fun things for our enjoyment equating over all of the Western World in millions if not billions of dollars not even caring for the cries of the people that were making these amazing things for us to put on our walls. Have mercy on us according to your steadfast love and according to your great compassion wash away all of our transgressions care because we know our iniquities and our sins are ever before us. I know Facebook is going to tell me I’ve exceeded 8,000 characters again. But anyway Lord have mercy and please help us to live for you and to turn and to do whatever it takes, sell everything give to the poor, to show that our repentance is true in real and to do it in gentleness and by your spirit not in the flesh. God have mercy on us. In Jesus name amen.
