Dial It Back
00:02:26
|
|
| Hello and welcome to the Jim Baker Family Show coming to you from the village of Morningside, USA, nestled in the beautiful Ozark Mountains. | |
| Join us as we look at today's news through a biblical and prophetic lens. | |
| Our co-host today is Reverend Mondo De La Vega. | |
| And now, live from Grace Druid at Morningside, USA, here's your host, Pastor Ricky Baker. | |
| Friends, you're watching the PTL Television Network. | |
| We have an exciting program for you. | |
| Don't touch that dial. | |
| I don't even think people have dials on their television anymore. | |
| I'm so used to hearing Pastor Jim Baker say it because I grew up. | |
| He said, go change the dial for me. | |
| Go change the dial. | |
| I'm like, dad, we have a remote now. | |
| Yeah, now we have it on our, you know, he just, he loses his remote sometimes. | |
| He can't find it. | |
| So I downloaded the app for his television because he has smart TV, you know? | |
| I was like, dad, you can use your phone as a remote now. | |
| He never uses it. | |
| He's like, Ricky, where's my remote? | |
| Every time I go over there. | |
| So we find the remote every single time. | |
| But friends, don't touch the dial. | |
| Don't swipe out of the screen. | |
| We have an exciting program for you today. | |
| We're just going to go ahead and set the tone for the show with a video from your friend, our pastor, the founder of the PTL Television Network, Pastor Jim Baker. | |
| Watch this. | |
| The four horsemen of the apocalypse, basically, is my opinion, they're out of the barn. | |
| And I think the white horse is galloping full-blown. | |
| Agreed. | |
| Yeah, I agree. | |
| And he is the spirit of Antichrist is taking over the world. | |
| It's in the United States. | |
| Sure. | |
| It's on 90% of the newscast. | |
| Yes. | |
| They're lying. | |
| That's right. | |
| There's lying. | |
| This is what, when I was in prison, I didn't waste five years in prison. | |
| God spoke to me as I studied the word that I was to come back out somehow and I didn't know how it was going to happen. | |
| And let the people warn the people that they had to get back to God, back to Jesus, and that they had to be able to be, I needed to be on the wall. | |
|
Banned Revelation Days
00:15:52
|
|
| This is my big wall here that I'm sitting on this desk here. | |
| But we're supposed to be on the wall and warning the people. | |
| But you know what? | |
| Most church people don't want to even be warned. | |
| They will not even read. | |
| In fact, the Revelation, the book of Revelation, is the most banned book probably in America. | |
| Wow. | |
| Did you know that? | |
| Yeah, the churches. | |
| Yeah. | |
| They won't. | |
| When I started traveling after I got out of prison, I started speaking. | |
| They wanted me, give your story, Jim. | |
| Just tell your testimony, how God brought you through prison. | |
| And I was teaching Revelation and scaring the daylights. | |
| They said, we don't want you to do that. | |
| We don't want Revelation. | |
| Well, we're in the Revelation days, aren't we? | |
| Yes, we are. | |
| Are we? | |
| Come on, how powerful is that? | |
| We are in the Revelation days. | |
| Well, it's true more than ever. | |
| You know, every generation, friends, we believe this. | |
| Every generation has seen Revelation type events. | |
| They've seen apocalyptic type events. | |
| Mondo, I truly believe we are the only generation who has seen the culmination of all these Bible prophecies happening at the exact same time. | |
| And we're watching it because of the deployed of artificial intelligence. | |
| Technology is bringing us to the prophetic word that Daniel prophesied that in the last days we shall see an increase of knowledge, not just prophetically, but knowledge itself. | |
| And we're going to dive into it later in this program on why technology should be embraced on one part, but also a warning side for the church on the other hand. | |
| You know, we see that prophecy in Daniel. | |
| You just sparked something in my mind where, you know, we see that men will run to and fro. | |
| There'll be an increase of knowledge. | |
| And it's not just like your average generational increase where you're building off the back of the last generation. | |
| This is going to be a spark, a huge boom of knowledge. | |
| But during this time period, AI is going to get more knowledgeable. | |
| It's going to get more, it's going to be quicker at giving you deep, intelligent responses. | |
| But friends, this is what I'm trying to say to you. | |
| This is why the church should be incredibly knowledgeable. | |
| And you're saying, well, I can't do what AI does. | |
| Clearly, we couldn't. | |
| We couldn't know something about every topic in the world at any given time. | |
| Friends, that's not the knowledge we need. | |
| This is the knowledge we need. | |
| Mondo, I believe if we saw a revival of biblical literacy in the country, AI can do whatever it wants. | |
| The B system can pop up, but we won't be swayed. | |
| We won't even consider it. | |
| Why? | |
| Because we'll have such deep biblical knowledge. | |
| I believe that's the revival that needs to happen. | |
| And I want to tell you something. | |
| Peter Theo is a billionaire technology investment company that is changing Silicon Valley like never before. | |
| Yet, in a few years, we're going to see a booming of technology. | |
| But he is warning that if this technology doesn't have God in the center of it, if it doesn't have the Holy Spirit in the center of it, then we're going to miss the opportunity to preach the gospel, but it's going to prepare us for the Antichrist. | |
| That's right. | |
| That we're hosting a birthday party for one of his partners. | |
| And I want you to understand something. | |
| This people that work in technology, they're not driven by God. | |
| They're driven by science and engineering. | |
| So they're far from God. | |
| But yet Peter Theo understood that Jesus and the Holy Spirit has to be in the middle of developing this technology first. | |
| If not, we're going to miss an opportunity. | |
| I'm not saying Peter is a man that you should follow because there's some questionable things about Peter, but I'm telling you, if this technology giants are talking about the Holy Spirit and Jesus being in the center, if not, we're in trouble. | |
| That's right. | |
| If not, we're in trouble. | |
| Friends, you need to become biblically literate more than you ever have. | |
| You need to ensure you know the word of God, not just in text, not just in being able to quote the scripture, friends, but in an intimate way where you actually have relationship with Jesus Christ. | |
| You have a friendship with the Holy Spirit. | |
| Friends, that is incredibly important. | |
| This right here is what will get us through anything. | |
| Friends, this right here is what will encourage us through anything. | |
| Will let us know that God has had a plan from the very beginning. | |
| And friends, if you don't have a good Bible-believing church or you go to every single Sunday, Wednesday, whatever your services are, some are Saturday nights. | |
| Friends, go get in a good Bible-believing church that preaches the full gospel. | |
| That'll tell you there is sin in the world, but there is an answer for it. | |
| And that is the blood of Jesus. | |
| Friends, I'm going to be reading out of Hebrews chapter 10. | |
| If you have your Bible at home, open it up to Hebrews chapter 10. | |
| It's New Testament. | |
| And we're going to be reading, starting in verse 19 right here. | |
| It says, therefore, brothers and sisters, since we have boldness to enter the sanctuary through the blood of Jesus, he has inaugurated for us a new and living way through the curtain that is through his flesh. | |
| And since we have a high priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart and full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed in pure water. | |
| Let us hold on to the confession of our hope without wavering since he who promised is faithful. | |
| And let us watch out for one another to provoke love and good works. | |
| Mondo, we're supposed to watch out for one another. | |
| Why? | |
| Not neglecting to gather together as some are in the habit of doing, but encouraging each other and all the more as you see the day approaching. | |
| Wow. | |
| Friends, you may have been in a service where you heard, you know, don't neglect the gathering together. | |
| Don't forsake the assemblies of your brothers. | |
| But friends, that's not just a phrase to be said for your pastor to try to fill seats. | |
| That's Bible. | |
| We are supposed to bring together believers, gather together and encourage each other. | |
| Mondo, not provoking each other in anger and gossip, not provoking each other in slander against another Christian believer. | |
| It says right here, we're supposed to watch out for one another. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Provoking each other in love and in good works. | |
| And this is why the church is so important because I want to read you something that brings me to the attention of this. | |
| This is a book that Noah Harari wrote, 21 Lessons for the 21st Century. | |
| And he says this about the Holy Scriptures. | |
| Holy scriptures may have been relevant in the Middle Ages, but how can they guide us in the era of artificial intelligence, bioengineering, global warming, and cyber warfare? | |
| And that's a question that fights against what you just read. | |
| Yes. | |
| Technology is going to fight the word of God, but if the church is not gathered together, then it's going to separate us into believing another gospel. | |
| Yet the church needs to understand that this portion of scripture, as you see the day approaching, what day is that? | |
| That's the good and holy day, the one where we finally have a redeemer come back a second time. | |
| That's Jesus Christ. | |
| Yet artificial intelligence and bioengineering is having us to believe that it's not good for us to be together. | |
| That's right. | |
| We saw it during COVID that they didn't see the church as an essential place to be gathering together that yet it was okay for people to gather at strip clubs. | |
| Yeah, it was at the clubs. | |
| Yeah, they didn't shut those down. | |
| You know, they didn't shut those down. | |
| Why? | |
| Obviously, it's probably a tax reason. | |
| They say, oh, well, they're paying taxes. | |
| You know, they, you know, the government found a reason to poke and prod at the church. | |
| I probably shouldn't have said that. | |
| It's probably going to be someone who doesn't like me for saying that. | |
| But what I'm saying is the church institution has always been the most amazing institution. | |
| What God created so that we could have a place to gather together, a place where we can have community, a place where we can have communion, a place where we can come and repent, confessing our sins one to another, and not having to worry about it being posted on Facebook, Instagram, not worried about being slandered by one another, not worried about coming in dirty and saying, hey, I need a Redeemer and us pointing people to the precious blood that is the blood of Jesus. | |
| You know, Noah Harari said this, and it just spiked to my mind. | |
| He said, soon we'll be beyond the God of the Bible. | |
| Yeah. | |
| And it's funny that he wasn't poking at Islam and he wasn't poking at Buddhism and he wasn't poking at Hinduism and he wasn't poking at atheism. | |
| No, all these men with a passion hate the God of the Bible. | |
| Why? | |
| Because you don't hate something that doesn't exist. | |
| That's why they don't hate the God of Islam. | |
| They don't hate the God of Hinduism, the many, many gods of Hinduism. | |
| They don't hate that. | |
| They hate the God of the Bible. | |
| Why? | |
| Because he's the one true living God. | |
| Friends, Jesus Christ is the only way to heaven. | |
| That's why people hate Jesus Christ. | |
| He says that AI surpasses human intelligence and he believes that it will begin to be the view of a new divine entity. | |
| This is something real. | |
| Sounds like the creation of a beast system. | |
| And when we understand why the church needs to understand what artificial intelligence is, what it's going to do. | |
| Now, understand this. | |
| There will be great things about artificial intelligence. | |
| Some of the greatest advancements in the world will come from artificial intelligence. | |
| But at the same time, Ricky, it's challenging the word of God. | |
| It's going to challenge the God of the Bible. | |
| It's going to challenge Jesus Christ's death on the cross. | |
| And artificial intelligence has the ability and is going to have the ability to erase what we believe and create a new God, a new Bible, a new gospel. | |
| And the dilemma is that this new generation that is being raised on artificial intelligence will not believe the Bible. | |
| That's right. | |
| They will believe what artificial intelligence is writing. | |
| The problem is that a lot of the people that have created and have been part of creating artificial intelligence are warning that artificial intelligence should not be released to the public because it's not monitored properly. | |
| That's right. | |
| And centralizing it is going to be the key. | |
| But watch who advances first because if you're creating a system that is regulated by the Chinese government, now you have a different gospel. | |
| A whole different gospel. | |
| Friends, get in a good Bible-believing church. | |
| This is the message I have for you today. | |
| The beginning of this broadcast. | |
| Go get in a good Bible-believing church. | |
| And friends, if you're in a good Bible-believing church, stay there. | |
| Stay in that good Bible-believing church. | |
| Serve in that good Bible-believing church. | |
| If you're within the vicinity here of Blue Eye, Missouri, I know we have a lot of people who watch within a 30-minute radius, 45-minute radius. | |
| It depends on how far you want to drive for church, but we would love to have you here at our service here. | |
| You can come to our campus. | |
| We'll put the address up on the screen. | |
| Maybe we'll throw some pictures up of the service. | |
| Friends, come join us for church. | |
| I'm on. | |
| There is some exciting things happening here at our church. | |
| I mean, there's some incredible things happening. | |
| There's a new birth of the body of Christ. | |
| And I feel like this will be the beginning of a revival that has been prophesied in this area, not outside of this area, not two miles. | |
| No, right in the heart of where we are right here at Morningside Church that Corrington Boone prophesied many years ago. | |
| And then that prophetic word was solidified by our dear friend, Gary Smalley. | |
| Amen. | |
| Letting us know that this was the area that God is preparing for a revival to break through. | |
| But listen to this. | |
| The understanding of gathering together is going to be so pivotable with everything that we're doing because God is still a God of miracles. | |
| God is still a God of restoration. | |
| And Ricky, what's happening here at Morningside, you don't want to miss. | |
| You have been praying for Morningside. | |
| You have sown the seed for Morningside. | |
| And every time you visit Branson, you need to come and see your church. | |
| Can I say that? | |
| It's your church. | |
| And this is your home church. | |
| And this guy right here has become a powerful preacher. | |
| Amen. | |
| Friends, we want to see you here. | |
| We'll put that address up on the screen. | |
| We want you to come join us. | |
| If you're in our local radius, please, if you don't have a good Bible-believing church, come follow and get in line and come listen to the scripture. | |
| It's not about the person up on the stage and it never will be. | |
| I just want you to know that. | |
| It's not about how good that orator is or how well they speak or how fancy it can be, friends. | |
| It's only ever been about the gospel of Jesus Christ. | |
| If the preacher isn't pointing to the word, friends, I need you to re-evaluate the preacher. | |
| If the preacher is pointing to himself or pointing to the things around him, friends, re-evaluate. | |
| We shouldn't be able to, we shouldn't be afraid to call that out either. | |
| The preacher should be consistently pointing to the word and ensuring that what they're saying from the pulpit lines up with the word of God. | |
| Because, friends, we don't have an opinion when it comes to the word of God. | |
| If it says it, we agree with it. | |
| And if it says to run away from it, we run away from it. | |
| If it says to reject it, we reject it. | |
| That is the simple reality of us as believers. | |
| But go get in a good Bible-believing church. | |
| If you're in this area, or if you watch online, we have a lot of people who watch online satellite campuses. | |
| Mondo, I don't know if you know this, but or you do know this, of course you do. | |
| We broadcast into prisons. | |
| I mean, we broadcast around coffee shops around the nation. | |
| We want to ensure that anyone who can hear this good gospel being preached from this platform, we do it. | |
| You know, for a long time, people thought, well, the church is one entity over here, and the productions over here, and all these things, but there is no separation. | |
| There's no separation of church and state here. | |
| We don't believe in that. | |
| We are the church. | |
| This broadcast is a mission from our church. | |
| Our network is a mission from our church. | |
| Our church is our head as God designed it. | |
| It is our umbrella that covers us. | |
| Every other good work we do coming out of this network, out of this show, is birthed from the church. | |
| I will build my church. | |
| Amen. | |
| We should never forget the church. | |
| I know, and for some of you, maybe when you think about the church, it triggers emotions and trauma. | |
| And I get it because the church hasn't been what it's supposed to be for you and what the body of Christ needs right now. | |
| But for every bad church out there, Ricky, there are nine other churches that are doing great jobs. | |
| Yes. | |
| And I want to tell you something. | |
| The church is the key to the body of Christ to understand as we see that day approaching, the gathering of the church is going to be more important now than ever before. | |
| Again, I go back to COVID-19. | |
| It changed the way we view church. | |
| And many people didn't come back to church. | |
| Yes. | |
| They stayed watching. | |
| But you know the problem about watching church from afar? | |
| You don't have that community. | |
| You don't have that entity together to be together and pray together and lay hands together and be in one accord. | |
| And I believe this is the hour for the church. | |
| This is the hour for you and me and all of us together to be in unison because God wants to use the church in these days that we're in right now. | |
| They are trying to lie to you. | |
| They are trying to deceive you. | |
|
Open Wide, Stay Changed
00:01:43
|
|
| And what better way to be protected other than, you know what, being part of a body that is speaking to you. | |
| And Ricky, there is nothing better than being a part of a church body when you need help. | |
| That's right. | |
| A church body that is alive and well and thriving is a church body that takes care of people through emotional trauma, through marital issues, through physical trauma. | |
| The church is there. | |
| Mono, you're right. | |
| There's no better place. | |
| When the world has catastrophe, where do they go? | |
| The church. | |
| The church. | |
| They go to the church. | |
| And friends, rightfully so. | |
| That is our responsibility. | |
| Jesus gave us that responsibility to take care of people. | |
| We want to ensure that the first thing, whenever someone is going through a hard time, the first place they want to go is your church doors, friends. | |
| Make sure that you are a church that has their arms open wide, saying, Yes, you can come here as you are, but no, when you encounter Jesus like Saul did right before he became Paul in the book of Acts, you won't leave the same. | |
| You'll leave purified, righteous, holy, not by anything you have done, friend, but because the blood is precious and it is good, and it still is able to redeem you, even at your furthest point away from God. | |
| Friends, make sure you have a good church body. | |
| You know, Mondo, some of the most exciting things are coming up morningside. | |
| This is going to be a jam-packed year. | |
| I think we have four conferences planned out for this year so far. | |
| The first one coming up is where we're going to be asking some hard questions from some brilliant men. | |
|
Artificial Intelligence & The Antichrist
00:03:39
|
|
| It is our Aliens, AI, and the Antichrist Conference. | |
| I want you to watch this Ready Now Expo trailer. | |
| We're going to talk about this a little bit, how you can get involved, how you can be here in person, and why this is going to be so critical for the times we're living in. | |
| Watch this. | |
| Is the Antichrist alive right now? | |
| Because when he comes, he's coming. | |
| It says people have all been prepared. | |
| Their hearts are ready, all prepared for his revelation. | |
| Will artificial intelligence control our lives? | |
| With artificial intelligence, we are summoning the demon. | |
| Are aliens real and have they already visited our planet? | |
| We're entering a period of great uncertainty where we're dealing with things we've never dealt with before. | |
| The one that controls AI has enormous power over everyone else. | |
| The world is changing at a rapid pace, and the biggest questions of our time demand answers. | |
| Why the secrecy if it's really no big deal and there's nothing there? | |
| Why hide it? | |
| Join us for Ready Now Expo 2025: Aliens, AI, and the Antichrist, April 10th, 11th, and 12th, where faith, preparedness, and revelation collide. | |
| What are preachers going to do when they stand before the throne of God? | |
| Don't miss this powerful event featuring event speakers, prophetic insights, and groundbreaking discussions that could reshape the way you see the future. | |
| Are we entering the final frontier of humanity? | |
| Very soon, we will be beyond the God of the Bible. | |
| Register today for our Ready Now Expo, Aliens, AI, and the Antichrist at www.readynowexpo.com. | |
| Readynowexpo.com. | |
| You can go there and sign up, friends. | |
| If you click today, you go to readynowexpo.com. | |
| Early bird pricing is still available. | |
| If you're going to be watching online, Mondo, if you're here in person, it is an absolutely free event to come participate in. | |
| And we also have another thing you have to sign up for. | |
| It is a banquet the last night where we'll be doing a live question and answers with these powerful men. | |
| And it's going to be exciting to be able to ask them the hard questions. | |
| You know, you guys are going to be able to eat at that banquet. | |
| I guarantee you, they will not be able to eat at that banquet. | |
| They're going to be getting bombarded with questions. | |
| Mondo, people have questions and they want answers. | |
| Yeah. | |
| We, you know, some of the warnings from people like the pioneers Jeffrey Hinton, Elon Musk, of course, Mo Gadat, have raised serious concerns about artificial intelligence and why it's being released to the public this prematurely. | |
| Now, how does a church person even deals and understand what's being thrown at them? | |
| And by asking the right question, it's going to help you understand biblically what does the Bible have to say about UFOs? | |
| What does the Bible have to say about technology and how does that come together with the Antichrist? | |
| I think we're approaching days that have changed the way we have understood the scripture, yet very few people are understanding how this is going to affect our daily life. | |
| We're going to see a lack of human control and regulations that we're not going to understand. | |
| You think that technology is just sending emails. | |
| It's far beyond that. | |
| We are watching artificial intelligence that is going to begin to manipulate and misinform many people. | |
|
Artificial Intelligence and Deception
00:11:55
|
|
| Now, this is something that brings me to attention because I want to ask those guys if we are going to start seeing deep fake religious leaders. | |
| Yes. | |
| AI could mimic a pastor, evangelist, the Bible. | |
| How is it going to change historical portions of the Bible? | |
| Because it has the potential to influence deception. | |
| And how do we combat that as pastors, as leaders? | |
| What do we do? | |
| Do we say no to artificial intelligence completely? | |
| Or could some good come out of it? | |
| That's right. | |
| Friends, I want you to watch this video. | |
| This is important. | |
| This is from a man who's considered the godfather of AI. | |
| And he's saying that AI knows far more than we do. | |
| Watch this. | |
| You believe they can understand? | |
| Yes. | |
| You believe they are intelligent? | |
| Yes. | |
| I think there's a lot of different things we need to worry about with this, with these new kinds of digital intelligence. | |
| And so what I've been talking about mainly is what I call the existential threat, which is the chance that they get more intelligent than us and they'll take over from us. | |
| They'll get control. | |
| And can make decisions based on those experiences. | |
| In the same sense as people do, yes. | |
| Now, if you have an AI agent that creates its own sub-goals, it'll very quickly realize a very good sub-goal is to get more control. | |
| Because if you get more control, you're better at achieving all those goals people have set you. | |
| And so it's fairly clear they'll try and get more control. | |
| But that's not good. | |
| They will be able to manipulate people, right? | |
| And these will be very good at convincing people. | |
| Because they'll have learned from all the novels that were ever written. | |
| All the books by Machiavelli. | |
| All the political connivances. | |
| They'll know all that stuff. | |
| They'll know how to do it. | |
| Companies in all the countries, because none of them want the superintelligence to take over. | |
| So in that sense, that's like global nuclear war, where even during the Cold War, people could collaborate to prevent there being a global nuclear war because it was not in anybody's interests. | |
| Sure. | |
| And so that's one, in a sense, positive thing about this existential threat. | |
| It should be possible to get people to collaborate to prevent it. | |
| Before it's more intelligent than us, we should be putting huge resources into seeing whether we are going to be able to control it. | |
| What is a path forward that ensures safety? | |
| I don't know. | |
| I can't see a path that guarantees safety. | |
| That's incredible. | |
| I mean, he says, I can't guarantee a path that ensures safety. | |
| AI, and I'm going to read you something from the warnings that this experts are saying of the loss of human autonomy and free will. | |
| You have to understand what's at stake here is mankind's gift that was received from God, which is free will. | |
| And at what point we're going to wake up to understand that free will is at play in this situation between mankind and of artificial intelligence. | |
| This is what it says. | |
| Artificial intelligence algorithms, when combined with surveillance and big data, could manipulate human decisions from voting to shopping to personal beliefs. | |
| Noah Harari is warning that artificial intelligence may become the most effective tool for a dictatorship regime, eliminating personal freedoms by controlling thoughts and behaviors. | |
| Right now, the only thing that is keeping artificial intelligence from moving into the forefront of controlling everything we're doing is that it has not learned how to control your thoughts and how you behave. | |
| The moment it taps into bioengineering and allowing it to tap into how you make the decisions, now it controls you. | |
| Now, how do we see that play in real life? | |
| Right now, if you type in search for my favorite pants, all of a sudden it starts researching you on what type of pants do you like to wear. | |
| All of a sudden, it's going to start feeding you things that is in your behavior. | |
| All of a sudden, it starts learning the way you feel, the way your emotions feel about certain colors, about certain places where you shop, about your belief system and the color that you pick and how it makes you feel. | |
| Those behaviors are controlled because they become safeguards to guide you and not allow you to think any different. | |
| The moment it starts controlling the way you believe, now it can manipulate you by feeding you information that you cannot escape. | |
| Now you're giving up your free will to even have a mind change. | |
| Meaning, if you want to change your mind, artificial intelligence is not going to allow you because of the data that is collected from you. | |
| It'll exist that you've given up yourself. | |
| You'll sear your conscience, really. | |
| It's like a Revelation 13, 18 moment where we see that's where the mark of the beast being introduced. | |
| Mono, I want to ask you a question. | |
| Do you think that artificial intelligence will play a role in the beast system coming into the world? | |
| 100%. | |
| And it goes back to understanding that data, the information that is collecting, that the Antichrist will use that to manipulate your emotions. | |
| Do you think it's like a agenda? | |
| You know, we see the word conspiracy was obviously created by a three-letter organization, you know, our government. | |
| I'm not going to say which one it is. | |
| You guys can Google it. | |
| To kind of counteract some things that were happening, you know, conspiracies right now, it seems to be like maybe a six-month time span between them and the truth. | |
| I mean, that's just the reality of it. | |
| We don't dabble in conspiracy a lot here, and we try not to go into that venture arena. | |
| But, Mono, what do we do in a culture and in a world whenever we talk about things like this or people at home are trying to warn their families and they're saying, well, you're just a conspiracy theorist. | |
| I think we need to understand that when it comes to artificial intelligence, I think people are grasping the idea that is being implemented very softly so people are more aware. | |
| I think the key is understanding the good, the bad, and the indifferent of artificial intelligence. | |
| Because when you put it into a perspective that it's all bad, then you're going to miss the good out of it. | |
| Again, when you go back to the experts, understanding that there are a lot of experts in this field, bioengineers that are born-again Christians. | |
| So understand that technology is not just being developed by evil people. | |
| It is also being developed by men and women of God that are involved in the church that are praying, asking God how to develop a cure for cancer using bioengineering. | |
| Yet, when you sit down and talk to somebody, you got to go through what the Bible says, but also understand what are the experts saying about this technology that is changing our everyday life. | |
| Now, the one thing they're going to attack is your faith, but also understanding how to have those conversations. | |
| You have to go through it by understanding what does the Bible have to say about this so you don't get shut down. | |
| That's why it is so important that you attend this conference that we're putting together because it's going to give you a biblical outlook on how to answer some of the toughest questions on how aliens, artificial intelligence combine with the Antichrist and understand that when people are open with a smart conversation and you lead them to that, now it's going to open up their mind because right now they're not going to get it through emotional senses. | |
| They have to get it through a factual sense of understanding how is that going to impact my everyday life. | |
| That's right. | |
| There's some terms being thrown around. | |
| You can listen to them on the mainstream media. | |
| You can listen to other Christian broadcasts. | |
| You can hear them on Facebook, Instagram, social media, whatever it is that you have, like technological singularity. | |
| And people say, well, what does that even mean? | |
| Well, friends, I have some experts, Tom Horn, Derek Gilbert, and they're going to explain to you what the phrase technological singularity means and kind of describe. | |
| And it's important that you know. | |
| Why? | |
| Because we want to make sure we are able to make intelligent, reasonable decisions by having the knowledge. | |
| Watch this. | |
| I think because technological singularity is coming. | |
| Now, what do I mean by that? | |
| Yeah, that is the moment in which an artificial intelligence is going to suddenly come alive. | |
| It's going to develop consciousness. | |
| What? | |
| It's going to become an I am that I am. | |
| And it will be literally trillions of times more powerful than every Einstein that has ever lived in terms of its ability to calculate. | |
| It'll outwit humans before you even know what the question is, right? | |
| And I think the book of Revelation talks about this when it says, and they had power to give life unto the image of the beast, and that they would cause all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive the mark of the beast, to worship the beast. | |
| I think that's exactly what the book of Revelation was talking about. | |
| Saul, Hugo DeGuerreas. | |
| Right. | |
| He was a professor at the Artificial Brain Institute of Siam University. | |
| Yes, in China. | |
| Where they were building what they call neural networks, which are essentially artificial brains. | |
| The thing, and he admitted this in an interview that I did with Hugo, that he said we weren't doing science, we were doing engineering. | |
| In other words, we put input into these black boxes that do this thinking, and we would get output, but we have no idea what's going on inside the black boxes. | |
| They're creating these artificial brains, and they don't know how these things work. | |
| Right. | |
| He wrote a book that's called the Artillect War. | |
| Yes. | |
| Now, what does he mean? | |
| Artillect means artificial intellect. | |
| Artillect. | |
| It's a word that he created. | |
| The artillery war. | |
| And it is like reading some of the darkest parts of the Old Testament. | |
| In fact, this guy's a prophet running from his calling, I think. | |
| He says that the moment that this artificial intelligence comes online, it is going to give birth to Armageddon. | |
| He says literally billions of humans are going to die in a very short period of time. | |
| This is ushering in the last days. | |
| He describes, he describes a coming war. | |
| He said the biggest political conflict in the 21st century will not be over water or political rights or religion. | |
| It'll be over whether or not humanity should upgrade and become cyborgs, basically. | |
| That's the late, great Tom Horn. | |
| We love Tom Horn at the ministry, Skywatch, TV. | |
| His son, now Joe Horn's running up. | |
| But Mono, they explained very wonderfully what singularity is. | |
| Mono, we were talking about a commercial that a large search engine agency had just run during the Super Bowl, I believe it was. | |
| But you said it was kind of poking or slowly, or you didn't say poking, it was kind of introducing you the idea of singularity on a normal conversation basis. | |
| We are dealing with the loneliest generation we've ever experienced in the world. | |
|
Developing Relationships with AI
00:05:01
|
|
| And I'm not just talking about teenagers. | |
| I'm talking about middle-aged men and women, older people that are lonely. | |
| They want somebody to talk to. | |
| They need somebody to have conversations with. | |
| And this software, this new technology, allows you to have a conversation with this machine like if you were having with your best friend. | |
| This person that created this wanted to make you feel like you were valuable and important. | |
| But how does a machine that doesn't know you has a conversation with you by what? | |
| Means of a phone? | |
| That's right. | |
| Well, guess what? | |
| The reason why it knows you is because it's collected all the information on what you have searched, what you have said, what you have posted, what you have liked, who you have followed, and has brought all that information. | |
| So by the time you download it on your phone, it already knows you and knows when you're mad. | |
| It knows when you're sad. | |
| And one of the commercials says, why are you sad? | |
| You know, if you need somebody to talk to, I'm here for you. | |
| And of course, they're going to talk to this entity because if that's a way to stay alive, why not talk to that machine? | |
| Yes. | |
| But again, it's being introduced as a helpmate. | |
| Yet the Bible, when it describes a helpmate, is different. | |
| That's why you reading Hebrews is so important because we need one another. | |
| The Bible says confess to one another. | |
| It doesn't say converse to a machine, but yet people are having relationships right now with robots. | |
| Robots that can think on their own, robots that can answer your questions, yet people are having personal relationships, even sexual relationship with machines. | |
| I mean, I forgot what it's called. | |
| I think we looked it up. | |
| We had somewhere at some point a couple of months ago, there's an app on a phone you can download and you can pretty much input all this personal information and then the machine generates based off of what you like character. | |
| And then you get to know this character and build this character and kind of mold it and shape it into whatever it is that you want. | |
| Friends, that will create the, we think this is a lonely generation now. | |
| That will create hyper loneliness, Mondo. | |
| Hyper because these people will develop these friendships, these relationships. | |
| And honestly, this is where it will go. | |
| And you can be like, oh, Ricky, put on your tinfoil hat. | |
| It'll go here. | |
| These people who go into this, they'll develop these relationships with these artificial intelligent beings. | |
| And then, you know, six months, a year, a year and a half, whatever it is, into this relationship they have, there's going to be something that pops up and says, hey, if you want to continue having this relationship, pay $10.99 a month, pay $20 a month, pay $100 a month, pay whatever. | |
| And they can put any price they want on that, Mondo. | |
| And people will do it. | |
| Because they will have developed a relationship. | |
| No, they're paying already? | |
| Yeah. | |
| Oh, well, never mind. | |
| They're already paying. | |
| But what I'm saying is they're going to be able to do that because they're developing a connection and they're going to say, now pay us for it. | |
| Just to give you an example, back almost 20, 30 years ago, it doesn't seem like a long time, but it is a long time. | |
| People used to meet in church, in court, and then end up getting married and raise their family. | |
| Fast forward a few years from that, what started happening? | |
| The introduction of dating online and Christianity jumped on that bandwagon and it was good because a lot of marriages came out of online marriages or connections. | |
| Today, all that information has been gathered and now is going to be used to help you or against you. | |
| So understand that the implementation of this, it's already happening. | |
| Just because you don't use it, it doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. | |
| Right now, everything in this world is being transported into understanding how to make the switch from human technology to artificial technology, meaning the usage of human beings will no longer be needed, meaning even relationships will not be needed with one another. | |
| You can have a deeper, why is this? | |
| Because when you have an intimate relationship, are you willing to risk it all? | |
| Well, we are living in a time, Ricky, where just to give you an example, yesterday I got on Facebook and I saw a post that I could not believe that this person, I never met this person, but this person was ousting out another friend of mine about personal things that they do in their ministry. | |
| And this person is thinking that he's going to do everybody a favor and expose this minister and put their information online. | |
|
AIs That Improve Themselves
00:04:32
|
|
| So how can you trust another human being? | |
| Well, AI is going to come in and say, well, you can trust me and your secrets will be kept with me. | |
| Now, why is that important? | |
| Because the Bible says that the day is coming and the day is now where people will betray one another. | |
| That's right. | |
| And why should you trust another person when you can trust the machine? | |
| That's right. | |
| And when you look at commercials, the commercials are softly implementing that by allowing us to communicate with artificial intelligence, but it's preparing us for the spirit of the Antichrist that will lead us into having our hearts set for the man that the Bible says will deceive millions, if not the very elect. | |
| Millions. | |
| Friends, Bishop Alan DeDio says AI is going to be able to improve itself. | |
| So you may be saying, well, we've hit its peak of AI, not even close. | |
| If this machine is able to improve itself, then, friends, we're going to have an interesting future. | |
| Watch this from your friend, Bishop Alan DeDio. | |
| We're at a really interesting moment right now. | |
| Even as we speak, agents are being released is what they're called, AI agents. | |
| Initially, AI was simply a language model. | |
| It's just able to talk like a human would talk and spit out information. | |
| Now they have released what they call agents, which is interesting if you've ever seen the movie The Matrix, where there's this artificial intelligence that is dominating the world. | |
| And in order to impact humanity, they release agents to impact them. | |
| Agents are able to take that AI language model and then go into the internet and do things for you. | |
| They can order things for you. | |
| They can do all kinds of things. | |
| Now the next step, this is kind of breaking news here, is that they have deep research AI models. | |
| That's what they're calling it. | |
| Deep research. | |
| You know that China has recently come out with an AI model that has rivaled ChatGPT. | |
| Well, in response, ChatGPT, I think before they were ready, released deep research. | |
| Now, here's what deep research does. | |
| It goes into the internet and it will research like a PhD would research things and it will learn and will bring that information to you. | |
| Now, why this is so revolutionary is because you have these AI models. | |
| They can now go find information they did not previously have and learn it. | |
| And now they are smarter than they were before. | |
| And they can do this in minutes. | |
| In minutes. | |
| In seconds. | |
| I mean, this is. | |
| So for the first time, we have AI that is able to improve itself. | |
| And if you haven't watched any sci-fi movies, let me give you a hint. | |
| Not a good idea. | |
| And if this goes unregulated, we're in trouble. | |
| And this is why the warning to release the artificial intelligence apps and programs. | |
| Ricky, when Bitcoin came out, it was not centralized. | |
| And the exchange of Bitcoins is what gives you the freedom to connect with one another without being manipulated. | |
| The moment that AI gets centralized, we are in trouble because who's controlling the thought process of an AI? | |
| Who's controlling the input? | |
| Absolutely. | |
| Because if you have Chinese-made companies that are producing some of the top research in the world, yet where is that research coming from? | |
| Who is manipulating? | |
| Who is centralizing that? | |
| One of the things that AI is going to do is that it says right here, it's going to be solving global problems. | |
| It's going to be doing education and knowledge accessibility, which we're seeing right now. | |
| It's going to create scientific discoveries. | |
| And in the beginning, understand this. | |
| In the beginning, they're going to solve every problem that you have. | |
| Isn't that great? | |
| I'll let you think about that for a moment. | |
| Isn't it amazing? | |
| But yet behind that, we have to understand that the reasoning behind all of this is the negative impacts that it also create that is going to create job displacements, economic disruptions, loss of human autonomy, AI control warfare, biased ethical concerns, deep fakes and misinformation. | |
| Will AI replace the God of the Bible? | |
|
Artilect and Apocalypse
00:13:54
|
|
| I mean, we can go on and on and on. | |
| And what you research is what you end up believing. | |
| That's right. | |
| Shameless plug here, friends. | |
| This is all the questions we're going to be asking at the Ready Now Expo. | |
| We're going to be asking questions like this, the hard questions. | |
| And, friends, we want you to be a part of this ReadyNowExpo.com. | |
| We have people like L.A. Marzulli, Bishop Allen Didio, Joe Horn, the son of Tom Horn, Skywatch TV, will be here. | |
| Dave Robbins from End Time Ministries, Vicki Joe Anderson, Carl Gallops. | |
| And we have a couple more exciting guests like Dr. Dennis Lindsay and a couple others. | |
| We'll also have some people here, some vendors here as well. | |
| Mondo, Ready Now Expo. | |
| This is going to be one that people will not want to miss. | |
| Pastor Jim Baker said it himself: We believe this will be the largest online conference that we have ever done because of the sheer magnitude of the information that will be shared. | |
| Man's desire to be like God through knowledge and technology. | |
| And this is why we need your help. | |
| This is why we want you to keep supporting this ministry every single month because we want to bring you some of the top leaders in the world that will speak to you through what the Bible says about UFOs. | |
| Right now, Ricky, I saw a headline that grabbed my attention that I think everybody should be paying attention because President Trump is about to disclose UFOs and the mystery behind it. | |
| And I'm telling you, it's going to be something that the church needs to understand because what we believe, this is going to be some demonic activities that we are now going to understand on what the Bible has told us about what these entities are. | |
| Yet they're going to be deceiving millions of people. | |
| And who does God bring to us? | |
| The lead voice, LA Marzulli, to help us understand what the Bible has to say about UFOs. | |
| The most important question. | |
| Absolutely. | |
| I think it's going to be one of the most important questions this year is the disclosure of UFOs. | |
| And many people worship these entities. | |
| Yeah. | |
| Not understanding the evil spirit behind it. | |
| And what do we do about it? | |
| What does the Bible have to say? | |
| And I want to tell you something. | |
| The Bible has a lot to say about these conversations that we're having. | |
| Now, UFOs are not necessarily, you know, pinpointed properly in the Bible, but it does talk about it. | |
| And when you go to Ezekiel, you can talk about it right there and discuss what the Bible says about UFOs. | |
| Well, take your friends to what Ezekiel saw in the vision. | |
| Yes. | |
| And the Bible explains to you, but we need people like LA Marzulli, Carl Gallus, Alan Didio, Dave Robbins to help us understand what the Bible says in Ezekiel and his vision about strange flying objects. | |
| Yes. | |
| Wouldn't you want to know? | |
| I want to know. | |
| Because if my kids are going to ask me questions as a dad, I better be ready to answer those questions. | |
| That's right. | |
| We need to be ready to answer those questions. | |
| Friends, we have a report two days before the Pentagon report. | |
| NBC News aired a report that aliens do exist. | |
| And that's what they're saying. | |
| Watch this. | |
| Ex-government and military officials suggested that that may be the case, that there are intelligent beings that live off of the planet. | |
| Witness testimony included a range of stories related to UFOs and UAPs, which stands for unidentified anomalous phenomenon. | |
| One former Navy admiral said that he had confirmation of them in 2015 when he remembers getting an email from U.S. Fleet Force Command. | |
| The video showed a flying object by a Navy aircraft doing exercises, noting that there were several mid-near mid-air collisions. | |
| The next day, he said the email mysteriously disappeared from his and others' accounts. | |
| No explanation was ever provided from another Defense Department official, and they claimed that the U.S. and its adversaries were hiding away UAP technologies. | |
| Take a listen to what he had to say. | |
| Let me be clear. | |
| UAP are real. | |
| Advanced technologies not made by our government or any other government are monitoring sensitive military installations around the globe. | |
| I believe we are in the midst of a multi-decade secretive arms race, one funded by misallocated taxpayer dollars and hidden from our elected representatives and oversight bodies. | |
| Now, this witness urged the new Trump administration to have more transparency, saying that he believes that Americans can handle the truth. | |
| We've reached out to the Pentagon for comment, but we've not heard back. | |
| You know, there's a lot of Christians, and I believe we are going to be covering this in depth at this Ready Now Expo. | |
| Friends, there's a lot of believers who say aliens don't exist. | |
| It's demonic activity. | |
| There are other believers who say aliens do exist. | |
| There are extraterrestrial beings. | |
| Friends, we're going to be bringing the leading experts in these fields that have a biblical perspective, and we're going to be answering those hard questions. | |
| Are aliens real? | |
| Will artificial intelligence play a role in the end times beast system? | |
| And is the Antichrist alive today? | |
| Or is it just a metaphorical thing? | |
| Is it hyperbole? | |
| Or is it real? | |
| We're going to be answering all of those questions. | |
| Readynowexpo.com. | |
| And then we're going to be having a banquet where you have the opportunity to be here in person with us, friend, and you can have a Q ⁇ A with these men and ask the questions yourself. | |
| 2 Thessalonians chapter 2, 9 through 11. | |
| Can I read it, please? | |
| The coming of the lawless one will be accordance with how Satan works. | |
| He will use all sorts of displays of power through signs and wonders that serve the lie and all the ways that wickedness deceives those who are perishing. | |
| They perish because they refuse to love the truth and so be saved. | |
| For this reason, God sends them a powerful delusion so that they will believe the lie. | |
| This is a scripture that L.A. Marzulli uses because we have to understand that whether through AI, UFOs, or supernatural forces, we as believers are called to stay in a watchful, discerning spirit grounded in God's word. | |
| Yes. | |
| Because everything that we see is pointing to the day of what you read in the beginning. | |
| The king is coming back, but we will see signs and wonders that the Bible says that men's heart will fail them out of fear. | |
| Yes. | |
| And then when you understand what the Bible says about UFOs in the book of Luke, then you can understand. | |
| I urge you to go and read it. | |
| 2 Kings, the Bible talks about this chariots of fire that L.A. Marzulli talks about. | |
| Ezekiel and the vision. | |
| I understand the Bible has a lot of reference to a lot of the things that are being developed and things that are coming, but understand that all this is to help us understand that the king is coming back. | |
| That's right. | |
| And many, I keep saying this, Ricky, many will be deceived if we don't understand. | |
| And this is why we want you to become a part of what we're doing right here. | |
| The Ready Now Expo is going to be something so critical for you to take back home and begin to study it for yourself. | |
| But know that you have a body of believers here that are standing with you, helping you through the process of the developments of artificial intelligence. | |
| Amen. | |
| Tom Horn and Derek Gilbert say that Christians and religious people will embrace, and we'll end the broadcast with this. | |
| We'll come back. | |
| But friends, watch this from them where they say they'll believe that they will embrace aliens. | |
| I think, because technological singularity is coming. | |
| Now, what do I mean by that? | |
| That is the moment in which an artificial intelligence is going to suddenly come alive. | |
| It's going to develop consciousness. | |
| What? | |
| It's going to become an I am that I am. | |
| And it will be literally trillions of times more powerful than every Einstein that has ever lived in terms of its ability to calculate. | |
| It'll outwit humans before you even know what the question is, right? | |
| And I think the book of Revelation talks about this when it says, and they had power to give life unto the image of the beast, and that they would cause all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive the mark of the beast, to worship the beast. | |
| I think that's exactly what the book of Revelation was talking about. | |
| So Hugo DeGeras. | |
| He was a professor at the Artificial Brain Institute of... Siam University. | |
| Yes, in China. | |
| Where they were building what they call neural networks, which are essentially artificial brains. | |
| The thing, and he admitted this in an interview that I did with Hugo, that he said, we weren't doing science, we were doing engineering. | |
| In other words, we put input into these black boxes that do this thinking, and we would get output. | |
| But we have no idea what's going on inside the black boxes. | |
| They're creating these artificial brains, and they don't know how these things work. | |
| Right. | |
| He wrote a book that's called the Artilect War. | |
| Yes. | |
| Now, what does he mean? | |
| Artilect means artificial intellect. | |
| Artilect. | |
| It's a word that he created. | |
| The Artilect War. | |
| And it is like reading some of the darkest parts of the Old Testament. | |
| In fact, this guy's a prophet running from his calling, I think. | |
| He says that the moment that this artificial intelligence comes online, it is going to give birth to Armageddon. | |
| He says literally billions of humans are going to die in a very short period of time. | |
| This is ushering in the last days. | |
| He describes a coming war. | |
| He said the biggest political conflict in the 21st century will not be over water or political rights or religion. | |
| It'll be over whether or not humanity should upgrade and become cyborgs, basically. | |
| Well, this is incredible. | |
| Friends, I want you to come here. | |
| Derek and Sharon Gilbert, who are in that video, will be here for the Ready Now Expo with us here, live in person. | |
| Go to readynowexpo.com, sign up. | |
| Friends, if you are here in this area, it is an absolutely free event for you to come to. | |
| And then there will be a banquet that we will be having where we'll be doing some, not just a Q ⁇ A Mondo, huge announcements, incredible announcements. | |
| We'll be doing a ribbon cutting for a new program, a new thing that you guys are going to be excited about. | |
| I promise you, this is going to be one of the biggest things for our ministry. | |
| We're going to be doing a ribbon cutting that night as well. | |
| But early bird registration is open right now for people who are watching online. | |
| And I think they need to sign up. | |
| The Bible says that look up. | |
| Amen. | |
| For your redemption draws nigh. | |
| Amen. | |
| And I pause for a second because we forget to look up because we get so enthralled with everything that is happening down here. | |
| But he wants us to maintain looking up at him. | |
| Be watchful for him. | |
| Be vigilant for him. | |
| Stay in prayer. | |
| Stay hopeful. | |
| Everything we talked about today may seem like it's gloomy, but I want you to know they are the greatest signs to remind us that King Jesus is coming back, that all of this must take place, but you have to endure to the very end. | |
| Stay vigilant. | |
| Stay watchful. | |
| Keep praying. | |
| Keep fasting. | |
| God wants to reveal to you the most powerful information that you can ever receive, more than even technology. | |
| The God of the Bible is real. | |
| Amen. | |
| He still remains faithful. | |
| And I guess you have to know this, that he loves you. | |
| He's crazy about you, Ricky. | |
| And this is the hour where many people are being disillusioned by the church, by Christianity, by religion. | |
| But don't lose hope in Jesus Christ. | |
| He died for your sins so you can be forgiven. | |
| This is the greatest hour that we're in. | |
| The greatest hour of the church has just begun. | |
| Amen. | |
| Friends, if you don't know Jesus Christ, it's the most important decision you will ever make. | |
| That is a decision you should make today. | |
| Call that number. | |
| It's 1-888-988-1588. | |
| We'd love to pray that salvation prayer with you. | |
| We've gotten a lot of cards recently and some emails, and people were talking about how they can volunteer at Morningside Church. | |
| Wow, friends, we want you to come. | |
| We want you to volunteer. | |
| If you want to be a part of this Ready Now Expo event and be a volunteer, by all means, come and do that. | |
| And we also have capabilities for other ways to volunteer as well. | |
| It doesn't have to be a physical job. | |
| It could be something that you're helping us with mail or you're helping us with other things. | |
| So, friends, we want you to come here. | |
| I just want you to know this. | |
| If you've sent a letter, there's a letter on its way back to you. | |
| I think we've written about 50 letters in the last couple of days to send back to people. | |
| Friends, we want you to know those letters are on the way. | |
| If you see this broadcast before the letter gets to you, we have a spot for you to come and help join us in this good fight we are fighting to preach the gospel of Jesus Christ around the world. | |
| Friends, that is what this is all about. | |
| It's not about a man or a platform or a family or people. | |
| It's about Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ alone. | |
| It has always been about Jesus. | |
| It is about Jesus right now. | |
| And it will always be about Jesus. | |
| Everyone up here can go away and somebody else will fill the seat and continue to tell you about Jesus because that is what this platform is all about. | |
