"Am I created by a higher intelligence or am I the result of random mutations + time?"

There is only one answer.

This blog is dedicated to answering questions about God and so much more.

God's Wisdom in the age of AI

THE MISSING PUZZLE PIECE WITHIN

September 02, 20262 min read

If we are God-authored (created in the image of God), it follows that we can only find our completion, wholeness, and fullest potential in and through God.

It follows that those who do not know God naturally try to play God (the obsession and idolatry of AI). They naturally search for a potential they don't know comes from the technologies intelligently designed and embedded within. Yet, they seek without. They look externally for what is sought and can't be found.

God has declared "I Am". I Am is IA. Have you noticed that the opposite of IA is AI.

It makes sense to me that AI is the opposite of IA. All of God's truth and virtue is inverted in the fallen world. To me, this is such a profound example of Jesus's teaching that the truth sets us free. The truth takes an inverted perception and puts it back in its rightful and fruitful place. It takes the fallen vice and flips it back into the virtue God created for us.

Consider:

  • The virtue of compassion twists into the vice of co-dependency

  • The virtue of confidence twists into the vice of arrogance

  • The virtue of humility twists into the vice of self-diminishing

  • The virtue of discernment twists into the vice of judgment

  • The virtue of generosity twists into the vice of enabling

After twenty years of coaching, I've seen this pattern work like clockwork. Until we become conscious and choose God, we can get trapped.

How can we keep embracing our humanity, learn from God's intelligence, and not lose our soul in a world telling us something artificial can replace living intelligence?

What happens when we stop living in the world and start living instead through the life within us?
