Review Romans 1 1:5 Writes those "obedience to the faith (pisteōs) of ... the gospel of Christ saying the 17 ...just shall live by faith." Warning of 1:18 the wrath of God ... against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men and 1:21 ... vain imaginations and foolish hearts who are given a strong delusion and believe a lie.^[1]
Romans 2:1 Man has no excuse for an unrepented heart. 2:6 [God] will render to every man according to his deeds: 2:8 Warns the contentious, who do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, indignation and wrath, 9 Tribulation and anguish, upon every soul of man that doeth evil 2:29 ... one inwardly; ... circumcision ... of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; 3:12 They are all gone out of the way
Romans 3:13 ...they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 3:14 Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
Romans 3:15 Their feet are swift to shed blood: 3:16 Destruction and misery are in their ways: 3:17 And the way of peace have they not known: 3:18 There is no fear of God before their eyes. 23 For all ... sinned, and come short ...24 Being justified freely by his grace 27 by the law of faith. 3:31 Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we establish the law.
Romans 4:3 ..believed God, ... counted unto him for righteousness. 9 [Cometh] this blessedness ... upon the circumcision , or uncircumcision 4:13 ...not...through the law, but through the righteousness of faith. 4:16 Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; 21 fully persuaded 4:22 imputed to him for righteousness

Questions

Chapter 5

Assurance of salvation

1 ¶ Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

2 By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand[to cause or make to stand], and rejoice in hope of the glory of God.^[7]^[8]

3 And not only so, but we glory in tribulations also: knowing that tribulation worketh patience;^[9]

4 And patience, experience; and experience, hope:

By the Holy Spirit

5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

6 ¶ For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.

Commend love

8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

10 For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.

Justification

11 And not only so, but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.

12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:

13 (For until the law sin was in the world: but sin is not imputed when there is no law.

14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam’s transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.

15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

16 And not as it was by one that sinned, so is the gift: for the judgment was by one to condemnation, but the free gift is of many offences unto justification.

Righteousness shall reign

17 For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.)

18 Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life.

19 For as by one man’s disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

20 Moreover the law entered, that the offence might abound. But where sin abounded, grace did much more abound:

21 That as sin hath reigned unto death, even so might grace reign through righteousness unto eternal life^[10] by Jesus Christ our Lord.

Galatians 5:1 ¶ Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.

↑ ==The I AM == It is said that we know we exist because we think but what is the source of our thinking? What guides or leads or conducts the pattern and path of our thoughts? Is it really the Empirical knowledge we believe we accumulate through our sense as we examine or perceive the world or is there a connection or relationship to that which has created the universe in which the world we think we have perceived resides within? What do we fail to perceive? What is the importance of each thing we perceive? We can only know finite amount about the existence of the perceivable world around us. We may have a sense of our existence but can we KNOW the truth of it? Unless we can KNOW ALL we really know nothing. This is why we should begin with Know thy self.
I AM the Mover

Is there an "Unmoved Mover" as the Greeks concluded that has existed before there were things or "Big Bangs"?
Did He move upon the waters of creation giving pattern to the formation of those things we imagine we observe and perceive as the universe?
Is there a way to connect to or tap into the Wisdom or the knowing of that "Unmoved Mover" or "Divine Designer"?
Is there a meaning found in that ancient allegory of the two trees where that naked couple fled the light placed in the Tree of life. Fleeing the light has been a theme of the story repeated by sages and prophets.
Avoiding the truth about ourselves and denying the reality of our errors and failures has often made the darkness of the world more appealing than the truth.
Drugs, alcohol, and addictions that cloud the mind or the acceptance or denial of inconvenient facts as if they were true preferring a bias perception to the objective truth have become all to popular throughout the history of mankind.

The Existence of Truth

Truth die exist. It is not subjective. It is what is.
Is it that light of the I AM that reveals the truths of the I am in our own hearts and minds if we have the humility to see our own nakedness and inability to come to know the whole truth?
Do the messages and moral guidelines of the prophets contain the secrets that may draw individuals to that connection to the source of all Wisdom?

Reference I am

Exodus 3:14 "And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. ";

John 8:24 “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.” (present tense)

John 8:28 “‭Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.” (future tense)

John 8:58 “‭Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.” (past tense)

Jesus honoured, which is to magnify the Creator, rather than himself.

John 8:54 "Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:"

The Creator is the Father who gives life. To take life is contrary to the Logos of the I am The I am is the preexisting breath of the Creator of the Divine Will. Jesus was one with the logos of the "I am" of God made flesh.
The people did not know the God that gave them life because the did not want to see themself in the light of His truth. Jesus brought the light and those that hated the light hated Him.

John 8:55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.

Many may think they are born again but they do not love the light. They say Lord, Lord but are under a strong delusion and invent the doctrines of men so they may remain in darkness and in denial about the true Logos of God.

John 9:9;“‭Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.”

John 10:9 “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.”

John 13:19 “Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.”

John 14 “‭3 ... where I am, there ye may be also. ‭4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. ‭5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? ‭6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way(Egō eimi hē hodos), the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me(emou)... ‭9 ... Shew us the Father? ‭10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? ... but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. ‭11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: ... 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.”

I AM vs AI

Should the I fear the AI?
Common threats seen in the increase of AI include: 1. AI can be infected with the Bias and Discrimination of society. AI systems can reflect and even amplify human biases.
2. Privacy and Data Security Issues can be a source of power like data poisoning or model inversion can extract sensitive details.
3. Misinformation, Deepfakes, and Disinformation can be enabled to create false and bias content (images, video, audio, text) which threatens democracy and social cohesion.
4. Job Displacement and Economic Disruption is a possibility.
5. Cybersecurity Threats and Malicious adversarial attacks trickery are possible with a biased or unstable morality.
6. Environmental and Resource Harms with the consumption of enormous energy.
7. Existential and Catastrophic Risks Longer-term worries include super intelligent AI escaping human control.
8. There can be a Concentration of power in a few tech companies.
9. Erosion of human autonomy through over-reliance, dependence, or manipulation.
The possibility are endless and even AI does not know the future for it is absolutely dependent on the tree of knowledge and external input. While we are impressed with the speed of AI there is a a lag. But the creator of the universe, if it is outside of time and space, would know not only instantly but in advance. If a man can tap into the I AM he would have a decided advantage over IA.
Recently, there has been a lot of talk about extraterrestrials or as some have said they are "Interdimensional" entities.<ref>Interdimensional is an adjective defined as existing, occurring, or traveling between dimensions of space or time. <ref> Could they control AI as a ghost in the machine?
Fear not.
The AI ghost in the machine, if there is one, has always been afraid of the I AM?

[7] Romans 1:21 Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. 22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, 23 And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things. 24 Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves: 25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen."

[8] Romans 1:26 "For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature: 27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet. 28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient; 29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers, 30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents, 31 Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful: 32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them."

Galatians 5:1 ¶ Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage.
2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning.
2 Peter 2:1-3 But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction. And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of. And through covetousness shall they with feigned words make merchandise of you: whose judgment now of a long time lingereth not, and their damnation slumbereth not.

[iam-8] ==The I AM == It is said that we know we exist because we think but what is the source of our thinking? What guides or leads or conducts the pattern and path of our thoughts? Is it really the Empirical knowledge we believe we accumulate through our sense as we examine or perceive the world or is there a connection or relationship to that which has created the universe in which the world we think we have perceived resides within? What do we fail to perceive? What is the importance of each thing we perceive? We can only know finite amount about the existence of the perceivable world around us. We may have a sense of our existence but can we KNOW the truth of it? Unless we can KNOW ALL we really know nothing. This is why we should begin with Know thy self.
I AM the Mover

Is there an "Unmoved Mover" as the Greeks concluded that has existed before there were things or "Big Bangs"?
Did He move upon the waters of creation giving pattern to the formation of those things we imagine we observe and perceive as the universe?
Is there a way to connect to or tap into the Wisdom or the knowing of that "Unmoved Mover" or "Divine Designer"?
Is there a meaning found in that ancient allegory of the two trees where that naked couple fled the light placed in the Tree of life. Fleeing the light has been a theme of the story repeated by sages and prophets.
Avoiding the truth about ourselves and denying the reality of our errors and failures has often made the darkness of the world more appealing than the truth.
Drugs, alcohol, and addictions that cloud the mind or the acceptance or denial of inconvenient facts as if they were true preferring a bias perception to the objective truth have become all to popular throughout the history of mankind.

The Existence of Truth

Truth die exist. It is not subjective. It is what is.
Is it that light of the I AM that reveals the truths of the I am in our own hearts and minds if we have the humility to see our own nakedness and inability to come to know the whole truth?
Do the messages and moral guidelines of the prophets contain the secrets that may draw individuals to that connection to the source of all Wisdom?

Reference I am

Exodus 3:14 "And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. ";

John 8:24 “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.” (present tense)

John 8:28 “‭Then said Jesus unto them, When ye have lifted up the Son of man, then shall ye know that I am he, and that I do nothing of myself; but as my Father hath taught me, I speak these things.” (future tense)

John 8:58 “‭Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.” (past tense)

Jesus honoured, which is to magnify the Creator, rather than himself.

John 8:54 "Jesus answered, If I honour myself, my honour is nothing: it is my Father that honoureth me; of whom ye say, that he is your God:"

The Creator is the Father who gives life. To take life is contrary to the Logos of the I am The I am is the preexisting breath of the Creator of the Divine Will. Jesus was one with the logos of the "I am" of God made flesh.
The people did not know the God that gave them life because the did not want to see themself in the light of His truth. Jesus brought the light and those that hated the light hated Him.

John 8:55 Yet ye have not known him; but I know him: and if I should say, I know him not, I shall be a liar like unto you: but I know him, and keep his saying.

Many may think they are born again but they do not love the light. They say Lord, Lord but are under a strong delusion and invent the doctrines of men so they may remain in darkness and in denial about the true Logos of God.

John 9:9;“‭Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.”

John 10:9 “I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.”

John 13:19 “Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.”

John 14 “‭3 ... where I am, there ye may be also. ‭4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know. ‭5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? ‭6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way(Egō eimi hē hodos), the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me(emou)... ‭9 ... Shew us the Father? ‭10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? ... but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. ‭11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: ... 21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.”

I AM vs AI

Should the I fear the AI?
Common threats seen in the increase of AI include: 1. AI can be infected with the Bias and Discrimination of society. AI systems can reflect and even amplify human biases.
2. Privacy and Data Security Issues can be a source of power like data poisoning or model inversion can extract sensitive details.
3. Misinformation, Deepfakes, and Disinformation can be enabled to create false and bias content (images, video, audio, text) which threatens democracy and social cohesion.
4. Job Displacement and Economic Disruption is a possibility.
5. Cybersecurity Threats and Malicious adversarial attacks trickery are possible with a biased or unstable morality.
6. Environmental and Resource Harms with the consumption of enormous energy.
7. Existential and Catastrophic Risks Longer-term worries include super intelligent AI escaping human control.
8. There can be a Concentration of power in a few tech companies.
9. Erosion of human autonomy through over-reliance, dependence, or manipulation.
The possibility are endless and even AI does not know the future for it is absolutely dependent on the tree of knowledge and external input. While we are impressed with the speed of AI there is a a lag. But the creator of the universe, if it is outside of time and space, would know not only instantly but in advance. If a man can tap into the I AM he would have a decided advantage over IA.
Recently, there has been a lot of talk about extraterrestrials or as some have said they are "Interdimensional" entities.<ref>Interdimensional is an adjective defined as existing, occurring, or traveling between dimensions of space or time. <ref> Could they control AI as a ghost in the machine?
Fear not.
The AI ghost in the machine, if there is one, has always been afraid of the I AM?

[9] Luke 8:15 "But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience."
