AI – The Big Lie – Jesus Coming in the Sky

Introduction: AI technology has taken the world by storm, all the way from China to Saudi Arabia, to America and beyond. But where is it going? How could it be used by the Antichrist? Is the stage being set? While on the one hand, there have been needed breakthroughs with this new wave of technological advances. And yet, on the other hand, its capability appears to be terribly frightening. From developing new military weaponry to helpful economical advancements, along with the latest state-of-the-art medical breakthroughs, artificial intelligence is both scary as well as a blessing.
So, looking into the future from a biblical worldview, where are we headed?
1. AI and the Big Lie! (2 Thess. 2:7-11) – “And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders.”
The Antichrist is coming soon. Here in this text, the apostle Paul, led by the Spirit, described this one who is possessed by Satan, otherwise known as his puppet, the Antichrist. Did you notice that he has miracle-working power? Deception is his game! He will be the counterfeit Christ. But unfortunately, many will not know the difference. False religion, pseudo-miracles, and dirty lies will mark his territory. Can you see how AI, with all of its ability to masquerade falsehoods, could be used by the Antichrist? Stay awake!
2. AI and the Loud Cry! (2 Thess. 2:4) – “…that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God.”
After pretending to be a friend of Israel for three years by protecting them with a “PEACE PLAN,” this embodiment of the devil called the Antichrist will move into the temple. There he will proclaim to be God. Imagine the chaos following the rapture of the Church. Even as we speak, there are wars, pestilences, and economic woes setting the stage for the Antichrist to conquer the world for a brief time. Can you see how men and women are being deceived today by believing lies?
3. AI and Jesus in the Sky! (2 Thess. 2:1) – “Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him.”
Here is the good news! Our hope is not in the government. It is not in economic success. It is not in military might. Rather, it is watching and being ready for the Bridegroom to return for His bride, the Church! Are you ready? Do you need to get others ready?
Conclusion: Since Jesus has forewarned us about what is ahead with the “Big Lie” and the “Loud Cry,” perhaps partnering with AI, what should His people be doing? What about reaching up in prayer, reaching out to share, and reaching in with care? While no one will be able to stop AI or the Big Lie, we need to be ready for Jesus Christ coming in the Sky!
