I have written about Artificial Intelligence a lot recently. This is not because I am an expert, but because I am deeply concerned that Christians and church pastors need to be equipped for tomorrow’s world. Actually, tomorrow’s world is already arriving with incredible speed and impact… but so many just don’t grasp this. Statistics are […]

The post AI Introduces Itself appeared first on Truth Is The Word.

  For as long as people have feared death, they have schemed to cheat it through elixirs and philosopher’s stones, frozen bodies, and now silicon and code.

From the shadows of prophecy to the glow of silicon screens, the Antichrist, the Mark, and the Number converge with Artificial Intelligence in a chilling fusion of ancient warning and modern technology.

The post Insights from Isaiah: Part 6 TruthTalks appeared first on Truth Is The Word.

Imagine God saying to you, “Come let us reason together.”  The Lord tells the Israelites that he is prepared to make their ‘bloody’ sins as white as snow…  IF they are willing and obedient, he will reward them abundantly, but IF they resist and rebel, then they will be ravaged by war. God was allowing them […]
