For as long as our history is traceable, we homo sapiens have been

progressing, and by all accounts we’re set to hit warp speed on all that

with the dawn of AI. But the Christian joy that is celebrated at Christmas

is not about progress, it’s about a different kind of rescue altogether.

The wisdom of God stands totally outside of all our ideas of progress and

advancement (which we’d be fools to put too much faith in, if we look lack

in earnest at our past) What Jesus came to do was to set us right on a

cosmic level - forever, and completely. And what the spirit is here for, is

our daily access to Him, while we wait for the life we were always made

for.
