Humans are not special.
We are simply composed of algorithms, which drive our cells.
We are not made in the image of some Divine being. Sapiens are just a fun animal. Animals are simply traceable strings of data. A complex yet now conquerable algorithm.
Human will is irrelevant.
The individual simply exists by calculating risk and reward: of survival and pleasure. The choices we appear to make are actually made for us, at a biological and emotional level. [This is literally what they teach.]
Feelings are the ultimate authority.
Emotion tells me the right direction. What my feelings affirm as positive cannot be bad. That’s just how I feel about it.
Scripture expired.
The dusty old book has not produced anything new or interesting in centuries. What helpful, new inventions has that expired book generated recently? Therefore, we don’t need it to function in the current era. New is more necessary. Humanity has realized more meaningful progress in the last 100 years from science and technology and modern philosophy than through some antiquated scroll 📜.
Man is it.
The individual is the ultimate determining factor in all scenarios. All authority comes from self-determination.
At singularity, which we are rapidly approaching, properly sequenced Mega Data replaces any supreme being as the supreme source of intel & guidance.
The best of this world’s wisdom came up with an equation expressing their scenario:
B • C • D = AHH
B = Bio. Starting with molecular monitoring aka genetic control … now multiply that by:
C = Computation power. Multiply the biometric algorithm with massive computing power to track everything happening under our skin, at all times:
D = Data. The knowledge of all things cellular and chemical within and without.
Together this = equals hacking the human animal.
The Ability to Hack Humans by tracking and tweaking everything tangible about our bodies through massive cloud computers, even brainwaves which indicate belief or unbelief. Google: hacking humans.

The refreshing Gospel message:
Humans are special.
People are more than meat.
Because life begins with God.
God exists because I am not Him.
I tried; it didn’t work out that well. :)
God made everything … on purpose.
Life is more than random chemicals and feelings. The individual soul and spirit are genuine and given to us by the Great Source of Life, the One True God Who Authored the Bible.
I am unique and valued by God. You are too.
Language-skills elevate humans beyond other creatures of His creation.
We people, are the receivers of God’s love, as He expressed through words and much effort, even suffering and loss.
Only God can provide rescue and reconciliation from our original, fallen state.
Personal feelings do not determine right and wrong. God set the rules in place knowing we would fall short. We are naturally in such a state that we must humbly admit our need for the Savior.
The problem of sin is too large for solving by myself.
The penalty is set too high for paying by myself.
There’s really only one option. Not me. Him.
I am allowed and encouraged to exercise my own free will to place faith in Christ, or not.
The 1-2 punch-a-roo 🥊 where are you smack the devil right between the nostrils [ka-powie!] and come around the house with a solid right landing on his temple for the brain-shaker … that combo works like this: punch the devil with a straight-shot gospel presentation to one of his kids, and follow that up immediately with discipleship material for healthy spiritual growth. That’s the dizzy-dazzle combo.
Hit the devil where it hurts.
Just like Satan is trying to pull away our kids into his “transitioning agenda”, our mission should be connecting people to the transformational power of the simple gospel message.
The Old Serpent hates losing family members. Make Satan feel like he’s loosing in this struggle against God’s team. Impact the darkness by bringing another precious soul to the point of intellectual awareness of their perilous position before the Holy God and His requirement to receive salvation through the Son, such that the individual is compelled by the Spirit to see his clear spiritual need, and accept the single solution offered.
At that moment, Satan looses a child … and God gains a child.
There are only two spiritual families.
Two spirit-lines. By default we all start in the first family from below. Only by the help of God and exercising simple faith can we be born into the second family from above.
In John 8:44 Jesus confronts the most devout spiritual leaders of His day, “Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.” As we all are the devil’s children from the beginning. Unless the gospel is received, freely and deliberately.
Ephesians 2:3 explains where we all started out: “Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were *by nature the children of wrath*, even as others.”
We are no different than others. We all start in darkness. We must be born into the light through New Birth. We are first, by nature, the children of wrath. We are now, by spiritual birth, the children of reward, that we don’t deserve. :)
Ephesians 5:6,8 “… because of these things cometh the wrath of God upon the children of disobedience. … For ye were sometimes [children of] darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light”
I cannot be born again until I recognize and agree with God that I am starting from a position of spiritual darkness and depravity.
I need light.
I need re-birth.
I need a new Father.
We had a rough start, but thankfully we were given an option, through the gospel.
The anti-gospel message listed above is gaining traction globally. They’re preaching it everywhere.
Should not we then, as proclaimers of the true gospel of Christ, also be multiplying our distribution channels and begging God for spiritual energy, “Please get involved, help us together to fulfill Your vision, Father, of reaching the world with the gospel.”
