Conscience
Discern Whose Voice You’re Listening To
The universe began with the voice of God. He spoke everything we see into existence (Genesis 1).
The first four voices that interacted on earth (Genesis 2 & 3) were the voices of God, Adam (the first male), Eve (first female), and the serpent (a manifested form of Satan or Lucifer).
Four points of view –the Eternal God revealing Truth (Reality), two human beings learning both truth and error, and the fourth voice deceiving our first parents.
That deceit–listening to the wrong voice–continues to to this day all over the world.
To overcome deception, you must discern whose voice you’re listening to.
Discerning Deception
The increasing use of AI in out world will be used for great good in literature, economics, governing, solving problems, and the completion of the Great Commission. It’s an amazing knowledge accelerator.
It will also be used for evil–and could possibly be the force behind a future “Antichrist” to rule the world. The “World Ruler” may not be real– just a convincing counterfeit image run by AI programming. Call him/her the “Wizard of Oz on Steroids” during the End Times (“don’t look behind the curtain”).
But deception comes in all shapes and sizes.
We must learn to discern deception when we see it.
The Poison of Profanity
We live in a time of words–in person, print, on radio and television, and throughout the Internet.
I receive about 50 promotional emails, respond to scores of personal inquiries, participate in 10-20 phone conversations , and probably send out 30 texts every day. That’s besides all the personal conversations, scanning and watching the news/TV, and wondering how those celestial satellites can handle trillions of spoken words simultaneously.
We are awash in words in the 21st century–many laden with the poison of profanity.
What can we do about it?
