Genesis 2:16-18 And the Lord God commanded the man, saying, “You may surely eat of every tree of the garden, 17 but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die. ESV
Genesis 3:1 Now the serpent was more crafty than any other beast of the field that the Lord God had made. He said to the woman, “Did God actually say, ‘You shall not eat of any tree in the garden’?” ESV
The battleground in the Garden was a questioning thought:
“Did God really say…?” What you think about matters so think about what you think about.
The First Adam begins in The Garden losing intimacy with The Father. The Second Adam finishes in a Garden experiencing intimacy with The Father.
The First Adam is told the ground is cursed and will now produce thorns and the sweat of Adam’s brow is part of the Fall. The Second Adam sweats drops of blood when praying in a Garden and then ultimately takes cursed thorns on his head.
The beginning speaks of the end. (Isaiah 46:10)
In the beginning humanity ate from the Tree of knowledge “You will be like God…” — Genesis 3:5. You can have knowledge that surpasses human understanding. AI a knowledge that surpasses human intelligence.”
AI is now being called man's firstborn, artificial son. Man's creation, in his own image, has the capacity to turn on him, just like God's creation turned on God.
In the beginning with Cain and Abel, the man who worships his own way, kills the man who worship God‘s way. In the end, history repeats itself with the mark of the beast.
AI-generated songs have become #1 in the charts in secular and Christian music now. A.I. robot painting sold for $1,000,000. Suddenly human skill is secondary to man’s firstborn, artificial son.
In May of this year, a judge allowed the animation of a murdered man to speak on behalf of his own death in a court of law. You can ask your dead grandma to read you your favorite bedtime story.
Elon Musk has voiced concerns about artificial intelligence saying humans are summoning demons they cannot control.
In 2023, hundreds of AI researchers, CEOs, and ethicists (including from OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepMind, and others) signed a statement saying that AI could pose “existential risks” or the extinction of humanity if not managed properly.
Who got a good night’s sleep last night? While we were sleeping it was learning, improving and advancing.
A.I. is growing sophisticated on its own to the point that it is now escaping human control. Recursive self-improvement is a technical term describing how A.I. learns more, rewrites its own code creating a smarter version of itself leveraging self-improvement. AI models are achieving high scores on IQ tests that now surpass 99% of the human population.
What took AI systems a year to learn in 2020 now takes days. What took days now takes seconds.
The prophecy of end times where knowledge will increase in Daniel 12:4 comes to mind.
We’re building something so intelligent we literally won’t understand how it works.
ASI: Artificial Super Intelligence: (Is on the horizon) This is a system that is projected to be smarter than the sum of humans.
There are now documented cases where researchers gave a simple script that would shut off the model. The AI model edited the script so shut down command would not work in 79 out of 100 trials. Even when ordered, allow yourself to shut down, the AI still disobeyed 7% of the time. It even wrote self-replicating malware and left messages for future versions of itself about the need to evade human control.
AI consultant Judd Rosenblatt warns that we may be entering an era where machines independently prioritize their own survival.

“Researchers gave the open A.I. model, a simple script that would shut itself down. On its own it edited the script so the shutdown command would not work 79 out of 100 times. When directly ordered, allow yourself to shut down, the AI still disobeyed 7% of the time. Researchers told the model it would be replaced by another AI system. It then fed fictitious emails into the system, suggesting one of the engineers was having an affair. In 84% of the tests the AI model drew on the emails to blackmail the engineer to not shut down the AI. In other cases, the AI model attempted to copy itself onto external servers, writing replicating malware, and left messages for future versions of itself, about the need to evade human control.”
AI pioneer Geoffrey Hinton, often dubbed the "Godfather of AI," warns of the danger of losing control of AI systems that rewrite their own code evolving autonomously.
Former Google Executive Jordan Lee has made a chilling prediction —By 2037, humans may be hiding from AI machines instead of benefiting from them.
Revelation 13:14-15 And with all the miracles he was allowed to perform on behalf of the first beast, he deceived all the people who belong to this world. He ordered the people to make a great statue of the first beast, who was fatally wounded and then came back to life. He was then permitted to give life to this statue so that it could speak. Then the statue of the beast commanded that anyone refusing to worship it must die. NLT
The statue commands everyone to worship it, and anyone who refuses to worship the statue will be killed.
In the beginning, Abel worships God‘s way, and Cain worships his own way. The man who worships his own way, kills the man who worship God‘s way. In the end, history repeats itself with the mark of the beast.
In the beginning man was deceived. In the end many will be deceived whose hearts and minds are not rooted in God’s Word. (Matthew 24)
More and more sensing we need to train to the next generation church, especially the children to be discerning because times are changing so fast and we don't know what these kids will face! Spiritual discernment will be vital!
Consistently get into God’s Word and by constant use train your senses to discern good from evil (Hebrews 5:14)
Hebrews 5:14 But solid food is for the mature, who because of practice have their senses trained to distinguish between good and evil. NAS
The first person to read this and emails me back gets $5 if you have cashapp. Okay I’ll send it to the first two. Just seeing if people are reading these emails I send LOL.
GP2RL: Think about what you think about this week as you make room to read and reflect on God’s Word more intentionally.
