How Does God View AI (Artificial Intelligence)?

Before We Dive In ... Let’s Review

Before I explain how God views AI, I first need to explain the context in which we now find ourselves. If you have ever had the spiritual experience of being born again, you should be able to understand the things I am about to explain. If you haven’t been born again, there is no possible way you could, or would, accept my explanation. Just keep in mind what I have stated repeatedly, the sarcasm I exhibit in what I write has but one function: To turn back those unbelievers who have no real interest in what God has revealed in the Hebrew Scriptures.

Having stated those things as a preface, I am now going to review what I have explained in the three issues of The Voice of Elijah® prior to this issue.

Review: “‘The Lord’s Day’? Really?—Part 1,” July 2024

In this newsletter, I told you the time had finally arrived for me to put together things I have written over the past thirty-four years so True Believers can “see” the seven “threads” in the tapestry God’s Prophets wove into the Old Testament. By the time I have shown you all seven, you should see how stupid the unbelievers who contributed to the corruption and loss of The Apostolic Teaching really are.

As Peter states in 2 Peter 3:3b–7:

In the last days mockers will come with mockery—those who are

(i) walking in accordance with their own selfish desires and

(ii) saying: “Where is the promise of His coming? For ever since the fathers fell fast asleep—since the beginning of creation—everything continues to be the same.”

(2) For wanting this to be {true}, it has escaped their notice that

(a) {the} heavens were from long ago and

(b) {the} Earth stood up together with {them}

(i) out of water and

(ii) through water

(iii) by the word of the {living} God, by which the world at that time, which was flooded by water, was done away with.

(3) So now the heavens and the Earth, which have been stored up by the same word, are being kept for a fire on {the} day of {the} sentencing and eternal damnation of depraved men.

(2 Peter 3:3b–7) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

Understanding the Sixth and Seventh “Day” of Creation

I am well aware of the argument that the seven “days” of Creation are literal twenty-four-hour days. That insipid stupidity evolved from John Darby’s Dispensational doctrine in which he claimed the Old Testament designation “Israel” can only refer literally to the Jews. His vapid beliefs in that regard stem from his total ignorance of the Hebrew idiom “cut off from,” which I have explained in Not All Israel Is Israel.

Here is what you need to know:

1. In Genesis 1:26–27, Moses tells us God planned to create Jesus Christ in His image and likeness on the sixth “day” of Creation.
2. Moses also tells us God planned to create “male and female” Believers in His image and likeness on that same sixth “day.”
3. Since True Believers have not yet been created in God’s image, the logical conclusion is that the seventh “day” has not begun; we are still living in the sixth “day.”

The Apostles believed:

1. Genesis 1:26–27 tells us God made a promise to transform those who believe His promise into His image on the sixth “day” of Creation.
2. The transformation of True Believers will occur at the Resurrection of the Righteous—as the fulfillment of the promise.
3. Since the Resurrection hasn’t occurred, the sixth “day” hasn’t ended, and the seventh “day” hasn’t begun.
4. That means we still have hope of resting with God after the Resurrection when the seventh “day” begins just as the writer of the Book of Hebrews states in Hebrews 3–4.

The Coming Nuclear Holocaust on the Seventh “Day”

In that same July 2024 issue, I showed you how the Book of Revelation describes the seventh “day” beginning with the nuclear holocaust that will face the few radiation-poisoned survivors who must deal with the aftermath. Isaiah uses the parabolic image of “Babylon” in Isaiah 14 to describe the Antichrist, and in Isaiah 13, he makes clear those refusing to “keep Sabbath” on the sixth “day” will be forced to do so on the seventh when that final “day” begins with the unleashing of nuclear warheads.

I showed you where Peter confirms the Apostles knew the seventh “day” was yet to come in Acts 2:1–21 where he quotes Joel 2:28–32. And the Apostle Paul, in 1 Thessalonians 5:1–11, plainly tells us those who believe The Apostolic Teaching will know when the seventh “day” is imminent. But in 2 Thessalonians 2, he warns us not to believe “The Lie” that the seventh “day” has already come, which doesn’t bode well for those clinging to the notion that the Church hasn’t already committed “the apostasy.” Those things being the case, True Believers should be very careful not to believe “The Lie” that the seventh “day” of Creation has already begun.

“‘The Lord’s Day’? Really?—Part 1,” July 2024

by Larry Dee Harper

The seventh “day” of Creation hasn’t begun; we’re still in the sixth, awaiting the promised Resurrection of True Believers in God’s image. Misinterpretations claiming otherwise, just as Darby’s literal reading, dangerously obscured biblical prophecy. When the seventh “day” arrives, it will begin with nuclear devastation, fulfilling warnings from Revelation, Isaiah, and other prophets.

Review: “‘The Lord’s Day’? Really?—Part 2,” October 2024

In this newsletter, I explain that Satan has effectively convinced most people to believe that complete falsehoods are the Truth. Very few will be able to see the logic in the Truth I have explained over the past three decades simply because Satan has fulfilled his prophesied role as “the one who is going to lead the entire civilized world astray” (Rev. 12:9b).

Satan’s End-Times Deception Revealed: His Three Convincing Lies

Satan’s strategy rests on three fundamental lies:

1. that Genesis 1:26–27 describes Adam and Eve’s creation in God’s image and likeness rather than the creation of Jesus Christ in His image and likeness,
2. that we are living in the seventh “day” of Creation rather than the sixth “day,” and
3. that John 3:16 means God loves everyone so much that He would never send anyone to Hell.

A survey of the Church today reveals so little Truth is available that God could reasonably just turn off the lights and start all over with His final creation—the True Believers He has promised He will create in His Own image and likeness at the End of this Age.

I do not expect many to believe what God called me to explain, and the vast majority won’t. But as Paul states explicitly in 1 Corinthians 2, unbelievers cannot understand what God’s Prophets explain in the Hebrew Scriptures; yet True Believers can, and those who have been born again already instinctively know they have an obligation to protect the Holy Spirit they received when they sincerely apologized to God. For those who don’t, Paul discusses True Believers’ duty to protect their understanding of the Truth in Ephesians 4:17–30; and he tells us in Romans 12:1–3 and 2 Corinthians 3 that our understanding of the Truth will transform us into His Own image and likeness.

How Satan’s Deception Leads to End-Times Judgment

The impending disaster to which current unsettling events are building will occur right on time just because numbskulls abandoned the Truth they understood prior to the Tower of Babel (Rom. 1:13–23). That is not unlike the lack of logic in the Church believing that Adam was created in God’s image and that the seventh “day” has begun. Then there is the completely unfounded notion that God loves everyone, whereas it is nothing more than Satan’s long-peddled lie that has long since become “conventional wisdom.”

The Prophets describe our rapidly approaching circumstances using symbolic language. Malachi refers to Believers “treading” on people like “grapes” (Mal. 4), using imagery that is echoed in Revelation 14:6–20, where the “wine” symbolizes the deception God has “mixed” for this generation, a deception that will entrap those who avidly reject the Truth. The Apostle Paul warns True Believers in 2 Thessalonians 2 that those who are surprised by the Antichrist at the End of the Age will be those who believe “The Lie” that the seventh “day” of Creation has already begun.

by Larry Dee Harper

Satan has deceived the world through three major lies: that Adam and Eve, rather than Christ, were created in God’s image; that we’re already living in the seventh “day” of Creation; and that God loves everyone too much to condemn anyone to Hell. Few will be able to see through this deception, and most believers today lack the Truth needed to avoid the coming judgment described prophetically as the “wine” of God’s wrath. Those fooled by these lies will be unprepared when the Antichrist arrives, sealing their fate at the End of the Age.

Review: “‘The Lord’s Day’? Really?—Part 3,” January 2025

In the January 2025 issue of The Voice of Elijah®, I concluded the three-part series that I began in July 2024 and provided my interim translation of the salient passages in the Hebrew Scriptures where the Prophets mention the fire of the Almighty God that will consume the Earth at the End of the Age. While I cannot say with full confidence that each passage specifically references that nuclear holocaust, I can state with absolute certainty that the End of the Age is indicated when Egypt, Assyria, Babylon, or Gentiles are mentioned alongside God’s anger, rage, wrath, or fire.

Daniel’s Vision of the End of the Age

I showed you:

• Daniel 8:13–19, where Daniel relates what God’s messenger told him about the End of the Age.
• He describes the Antichrist’s activities in Daniel 11:32–36.
• Why Early Church leaders believed the Antichrist is the “abomination of desolation” that Jesus said would signal the End of the Age.
• That you can find the decree that Daniel refers to in Genesis 6:7, where God vows to wipe mankind from Earth.

I said Satan has convinced people to believe the lie that God relented because of Noah, but I told you He meant what He said. The Flood was merely a diversion. God promised He would never use water again, but He said nothing at all about not using fire.

Zephaniah’s Warning of the Coming Fire of God

Zephaniah, on the other hand, describes the fire of God precisely in Zephaniah 2:1–3, where he calls God’s decree in Genesis 6:7 a “statute” just to emphasize its non-negotiability:

[Gather yourselves together] [and be gathered together]!
[The Gentile] [must [not] be yearning for {anything}]!
([When] [{the} Statute] [engenders],
[{The} Day] [will pass away] [like Chaff]!)
[When] [The [burning] Anger] [of His Majesty] [has [not yet] come] [upon you]—
[When] [{the} Day] [of His Majesty’s] [Anger] [has [not yet] come] [upon you]—
[All] [you Humble of] [The Earth]
[Who] [have put together] [His Decision Based on the Truth]
[Must seek] [His Majesty],
[Must seek] [a Declaration of Not Guilty],
[Must seek] [Humility]!
[Perhaps] [you will be hidden]
[On {the} Day] [of His Majesty’s] [Anger].
(Zephaniah 2:1–3) —my interim translation

I pointed out that Daniel 12:1–4 adds extra details about End-Times prophecy for those who have insight here at the End of the Age. In Daniel 12:8–10, for example, the messenger tells us, “The Words have been plugged up and sealed up until an End Time” and “Those Who Gain Insight will understand.” My hope is you are one of those who “gain insight” and “understand” the things I explain here.

The Truth is, we are at the very End of this Age. So now that I’ve surveyed the three articles leading up to this one, you will hopefully find it easier to understand how God views AI.

“‘The Lord’s Day’? Really?—Part 3,” January 2025

by Larry Dee Harper

The End of the Age will arrive as a nuclear holocaust—the prophesied “fire of God”—as confirmed by Daniel, Zephaniah, fulfilling God’s original decree that He would destroy mankind (Genesis 6:7), this time by fire rather than water. Daniel specifically ties this judgment to the Antichrist’s rise and the “abomination of desolation,” while Zephaniah and Malachi emphasize the non-negotiable certainty of God’s fiery judgment. Understanding these prophecies is crucial for gaining insight into how God views current developments, including AI, at the close of this Age.

How Artificial Intelligence Fits into Bible Prophecy

“How Does God View AI? (Artifical Itelligence?),” April 2025

Rather than telling you outright how God views mankind’s push to develop Artificially Intelligent computers, I first need to explain how Artificial Intelligence in Bible prophecy applies to the circumstances we face here at the End of this Age. That way, those who choose not to believe I know what I am talking about may be less likely to do something the Living God will make them regret—for all eternity. Listen to what the psalmist says about the mind-set of the political, religious, and business leaders of this, the final generation on Planet Earth:

“[Let’s snap] [their Shackles]
[And throw] [their Cords] [off of us]!”
(Psalm 2:3) —my interim translation

The Truth is, by lying to just one influential person after another over the past two thousand years since Jesus was crucified so that He could be resurrected in the image and likeness of God, Satan has finally succeeded in deceiving the entire world. But over the next several years, God fully intends to straighten up the disaster that fool created. Whether or not you benefit from what the Lord does for the Redeemed is entirely up to you.

Watch the Full Video for “How Does God View AI (Artifical Intelligence)?”

What Are the “Shackles” God Placed on Mankind?

I’m going to point out the ways in which powerful people are, to this very day, trying to circumvent the restraints God has placed on us. When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, He imposed several curses that were meant to be permanent “shackles” on mankind:

For women, He declared: “You will engender Sons in Pain” (Gen. 3:16). Yet mankind has crafted ways to avoid this punishment through:

• epidurals,
• cesarean sections, and
• various painkillers.

The second “shackle” God placed on women was psychological:

“[And [Your Longing] {will be} for] [Your Man],
[But he] [will have authority] [over You].”
(Genesis 3:16b) —my interim translation

This curse has had an amazingly disastrous impact on the relationship between a man and woman who have become “one flesh.” It can only be overcome by the woman accepting God’s decree that the man has the right to determine the terms of their relationship.

For Adam and his descendants, God cursed “the ground” with:

1. Weeds: “And she will sprout Weeds and Various Kinds of Thistles for You”
   (Gen. 3:18a).
2. Physical work: “You must eat Bread {Obtained} by the Sweat of Your Nose” (Gen. 3:19a).
3. Death: “Until You return to The Ground, Because you were taken from it—Because You {are} Dust, And You will return to Dust” (Gen. 3:19b).

Yet mankind has worked to remove two of these three “shackles” through herbicides like 2,4-D, and Roundup to get rid of weeds; while the rich and powerful use technologies like robotic tractors to avoid the curse of physical work. Some are even now trying to eliminate the “shackle” of death itself—which is an extremely ill-advised move in God’s eyes.

“When Adam and Eve disobeyed God, He imposed several curses that were meant to be permanent ‘shackles’ on mankind.”

The Communists—who avidly hold as their sole, single, solitary theological tenet the completely unprovable belief that there is no God—have long held an equally firm commitment to creating a Utopia here on Planet Earth in which everyone shares equally in its great bounty. Meanwhile, the John Darby Dispensationalists in the Fundamentalist wing of the Christian Church have been used by Satan to convince the more religious folk among us that Jesus Christ will return, rebuild the Temple for the Jews, and establish an eternal kingdom here on Earth.

The Truth regarding our current circumstances begins with an acceptance of the fact that the person called “Satan” really does exist. Jesus Christ said of him:

Jesus told them: “If the {living} God were your Father, you would love Me; for I came out of the {living} God, and I have come, for I did not even come of My Own accord, but That Individual sent Me. Why do you not know what I said? Because you can not hear the word that I have! You are part of your father, the false accuser; and you want to act in accordance with the selfish desires of your father. That individual has been a killer since the beginning; and he does not stand in the truth, because truth is not in him. Whenever he speaks the lie, he is speaking on the basis of his own {thoughts}, because he is a liar and the father of it.”
(John 8:42–44) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

Satan’s agents are assiduously working the Church, deceiving anyone and everyone who is willing to use his lies to make themselves feel better about themselves and the fantasy in which they live. The Apostle Paul warned:

(i) For such men {are}

(a) false apostles,
(b) guileful workers who convert themselves into apostles of the Anointed One. And {that is} not an amazing sight,

(ii) for Satan himself converts himself into a messenger of light. Therefore, {it is} nothing tremendous if his servants also convert themselves into {something} like servants of a declaration of not guilty—whose consummation will be in accordance with their works.

(2 Corinthians 11:13–15) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

The Connection Between AI and the Tower of Babel

Understanding how Artificial Intelligence and the Tower of Babel fit together is essential because God imposed the ultimate “shackle” on mankind at the Tower of Babel, and His response to their folly reveals how He views mankind’s pride of accomplishment. When they attempted to build a city and tower to reach the heavens, God said:

“[Guess what!] [All of them have] [one] [People] [and [one] Language]. [But [doing] this] [has polluted them], [and now] [nothing] [that] [they intend] [to do] [will be withheld] [from them].”
(Genesis 11:6b) —my interim translation

God’s response to their endeavor was to confuse the language of the “one people” who built the Tower of Babel and scatter them all across the face of the earth. This fragmentation of humanity into separate nations with different languages has been a constant source of military conflict ever since. The current conflict in Ukraine serves as a contemporary example, where more than a million and a half Russian and Ukrainian young men have fallen victim to a “shackle” the angry, jealous God of Israel imposed on us at the Tower of Babel.

The Artificial Intelligence that ignorant, atheistic men are now developing is precisely aimed at overcoming this final “shackle.” Is AI a modern Tower of Babel? By the looks of it, it is. Our generation is attempting to create a superintelligent machine that would effectively reverse God’s judgment at Babel by enabling universal communication and cooperation. Just like those at the Tower of Babel, modern leaders are saying in effect:

“[Let’s snap] [their Shackles]
[And throw] [their Cords] [off of us]!”
(Psalm 2:3) —my interim translation

How Superintelligent AI Will Trigger the Coming Judgment

John the Revelator describes what is coming down on us because humanity has pushed one “shackle” too far in its rebellion against God’s established limits. After describing the rise of beasts and false prophets in Revelation 13, John explains how AI will become the image of the beast:

And it was given {the ability} to give a spirit to the image of the beast, so that the image of the beast could even speak and make {it} so that as many as it may be who would not pay homage to the image of the beast would be killed.
(Revelation 13:15) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

Revelation 13:15 also reveals the connection between AI and the Mark of the Beast—disclosing how Artificial Intelligence will ultimately be used to control mankind and persecute those who refuse to worship the image it creates. The system described by John will require everyone to receive a mark

(a) on their hand, their right {one}, or
(b) on their forehead, and

(ii) so that no one except the one who has the mark—the name of the beast or the number of its name—can

(a) buy or
(b) sell.

(Revelation 13:16b–17) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

The consequence of mankind’s rebellion will be the imposition of the catastrophic judgment of the wrath of God as mentioned in Revelation. When all efforts to build a man-made Utopia culminate in the full manifestation of Artificial Intelligence, God’s response will be devastating:

“[I will cut off] [Gentiles];
[Their Corners] [will be devastated].
[I will dry up] [their Streets],
[Without anyone] [passing through];
[Their Cities] [will be laid waste],
[Without] [Anyone]—
[Without any] [Inhabitant].
[I said], ‘[You must [definitely] fear] [Me];
[Accept] [Admonishment],
[So that [her Haven] will [not] be cut off]
[{By} all] [that] [I levy] [against her].’
[They [most definitely] got up early];
[They corrupted] [all] [their Deeds].”

(Zephaniah 3:6–7) —my interim translation

This will occur through what John describes as a fire—not ordinary fire, but nuclear fire:

(b) The ten horns and the beast that you saw?

(i) These individuals will hate the prostitute; so

(ii) they will make her

(a) deserted and

(b) naked, and

(iii) they will

(a) eat her flesh and

(b) burn her up in a fire.

(c) For the {living} God has put {it} in their hearts

(i) to act in accordance with His opinion—even

(ii) to act in accordance with one opinion—and

(iii) to give their kingdom to the beast up to the time when the words of the {living} God are completed.

(Revelation 17:16b–17) —HSSB

In These End Times, Jesus Christ Will Return in a Nuclear Fire

When Christ returns, He will appear in the “glory” of a nuclear fire that emanates from clouds the world over after the deadheaded rulers of the nuclear powers that be decide the only “rational” thing for them to do is “use it or lose it.” As Jesus Himself foretold:

“And at that time, they will see the Son of The Man coming back in clouds with a lot of supernatural power and glory.”

(Mark 13:26) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

The Scriptures plainly tell us God is a fire:

“For our God {is} also a fire that consumes completely.”

(Hebrews 12:29) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

Moses experienced this terror firsthand, as Paul notes:

And the thing that was made visible was so terrifying, {that} Moses said, “I am terrified and quivering.”

(Hebrews 12:21) —Harper’s Standardized Study Bible

What Moses saw was a manifestation of God’s presence as “a Pillar of Cloud by day ... and in a Pillar of Fire by night” (Ex. 13:21a)—a description eerily like that of a nuclear explosion. “{The} Glory of His Majesty appeared in {the} Cloud” (Ex. 16:10).

Believe it if you care to: Nuclear war is clearly described in Bible prophecy. When nuclear powers unleash their arsenals in a final act of mutual destruction, at the end of the sixth “day” of Creation, True Believers will go up in the clouds to meet the Lord (1 Thess. 4:17) while unbelievers face judgment.

The choice is yours. If you choose to ignore or deny the significance of this warning, it will cost you—dearly. The stakes are nothing less than an eternity of suffering under the wrath of a very angry, very jealous God Who does not take it lightly when fools misrepresent the Person He is.

The Forecast

The things explained in the main article “How Does God View AI (Artificial Intelligence)?” April 2025 are intended as a wake-up call for those seeking the Truth. They are the beginning of the fulfillment of the End-Times prophecies found in the Parable of the Ten Virgins from Matthew 25:1–13, where five virgins were “stupid” and five “sensible” in their preparation for the bridegroom’s arrival.

For those for whom I have been writing these past three decades, you will know how this applies. You will also recognize the relevance of Matthew 24:45–51, which speaks of the “trustworthy and sensible slave” versus the “awful slave” who mistreats others when thinking “My master is taking his time.”

What Will Happen When World Leaders Impose a Digital Currency and the Mark of the Beast?

With these things in mind, the Redeemed of the Lord will face the End of the Age by accepting certain Truths:

• Dullards are going to continue to remain convinced mankind can create a Utopia here on Earth.
• Through Satan’s End-Times deception, political leaders will eventually vest total confidence in a “beast” created in Satan’s image and likeness, and they will establish a digital currency based on a Mark of the Beast technology that identifies every person who accepts it.

True Believers—those who know and believe the Truth—will never accept this identifying mark and will therefore be targeted for incarceration and/or execution. At the End, God Himself will appear in nuclear clouds to ensure political leaders never achieve their envisioned Utopia, just as He planned when He created the ideal circumstances for war at the Tower of Babel.
