The End-times are drawing nearer! Are you seeing it?

Man, this is interesting; two things come to mind. In Scripture, we see that Satan often aims to mimic God's work and God's truth but always twists it. Sometimes He twists it a little, sometimes a lot, but it's always twisted for His own purposes and glory. This is the heart of Satan and the heart of that which is the antichrist.


In this thought alone, there is a warning for us all. Are we living as Christians knowing God's truth but living in small ways or big ways for our purposes and glory? We see in 2 Timothy 3:1-5 what kind of people we may find ourselves to be if we are not surrendered to and walking in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Saviour, living for His purposes and glory alone.


Secondly, I see in this A.I. connection to rewriting the bible and other religious texts Satan perhaps aims to mimic the work of the Holy Spirit. We know Satan aims to mimic, in part the Holy Trinity. In Rev 131-18, we see the Anti-Christ assuming the place of God the Father and then the false prophet assuming the place of the Son, the prophet and priest. The false prophet, or second beast, has an image of the Antichrist made and gives power to the Image so that it can speak and kill all who will not bow down to it and worship it in honour of the first beast. I know it seems a little confusing, but note that trinitarian connection here. The A.I. would fit the general model of the Holy Spirit's everywhere present and divinely all-powerful characteristics.


I'm not saying this is a sure thing. That AI will be the Anti-Christ's mimic of the Holy Spirit's power. Or that the false prophet will give the image A.I., which is where its power will come from. No, I'm just saying I can see it possibly fit with scripture. Like many things we are foretold in scripture, we will only know for sure how they will specifically happen when we see them unfold. This was the case with most of the prophecies about Jesus' first coming, and I believe it will be similar to the prophecies about His second coming. But we are to be keeping watch, and I pray you are.


And, of course, Satan's trinity is a fraud. Yet Satan aims to mimic the true trinity because He knows, as anyone intelligent does, that the best way to deceive the human, is to keep as much of the truth as possible and change only what is necessary to move the purpose and glory away from God and turn it to fall on self. Humanity loves truth, but we are even happier with truth with just enough lies that allow us to live for our own purposes and glory.
