The rise of Artificial intelligence may be the last sign of the end times or Last days in bible prophecy

Is AI the Final Sign of the End of the Age Prophecy?

Hello everyone, welcome back to Spiritual Podcast, your podcast for authentic Bible teachings. I’m so glad you’re tuning in today. I’m Elder Dan, your host. Grab your coffee, take a breath, and let’s dive into something that’s been weighing heavy on my heart this week.

You know, I was scrolling through the news yesterday—which is always a dangerous thing for a pastor’s blood pressure—and I saw three different headlines about Artificial Intelligence. One was about AI-generated medicine, another about AI “resurrecting” the voices of the dead, and a third about how it’s now outperforming human lawyers.

And immediately, my mind went to a dusty old scroll from 2,000 years ago.

I want to talk about Daniel 12:4. If you’ve got your Bibles handy, or just your phone app, look at what the angel tells Daniel. He says: “But you, Daniel, roll up and seal the words of the scroll until the time of the end. Many will go back and forth, and knowledge will increase.”

For centuries, scholars looked at that and thought, “Maybe it means more people will read the Bible.” In the 1900s, people said, “Look! We have cars and planes! We’re going back and forth!” And they weren’t wrong. But friends, I believe we are witnessing the ultimate fulfillment of this prophecy right now, in our pockets and on our screens.

The “Knowledge” Threshold

Think about the phrase: “Knowledge will increase.” For most of human history, knowledge moved at a snail’s pace. It took a hundred years for human knowledge to double back in the 1800s. By the end of WWII, it was doubling every 25 years. Today? Some experts say with the integration of AI, human knowledge is doubling every 12 hours.

Think about that. People are not just learning more; humanity have created a “digital brain” that can process the sum total of human history in seconds. We have reached a point where the “scroll” Daniel was told to seal is being ripped open by algorithms.

AI as the Undeniable Proof

Now, some people ask me, “Elder Dan, is AI evil?” And I tell them, a hammer is not evil until you use it to hurt someone. But here’s what I can tell you: AI is an undeniable signpost.

The prophecy says that in the end times, this knowledge explosion would happen. It would not be a gradual climb; it would be a vertical spike. AI is that spike. We are literally building a global nervous system. We’ve gone from “searching for knowledge” to having an intelligence that anticipates our needs, tracks our movements, and influences our very thoughts.

When Daniel wrote “many will go back and forth,” the Hebrew implies a frantic searching—a restless, globalized world. Does that not describe us today? People are more “connected” than ever, yet they’re searching more desperately for truth because we’re drowning in a sea of data.

Why This Matters for You

I’m not telling you this to scare you. I’m telling you this to wake you up.

If Daniel’s prophecy about the increase of knowledge is coming true before our very eyes—and let’s be honest, AI is the “knowledge increase” on steroids—then the rest of the Book is just as real. King Yahshua is coming! Yes folks, the stage is being set!

We see the technology for a global economy, the technology for a “speaking image” (Revelation 13), and the technology to track every human being on earth. It’s all here. The “proof” isn’t in some conspiracy theory; it’s in the palm of your hand.

The Bottom Line

So, what do we do? We don’t hide in a hole. We look up!

If knowledge is increasing, let’s make sure our wisdom is increasing too. Let’s spend less time talking to the chatbot and more time talking to Yahweh, our Creator and Father in heaven. Because while AI can give you some facts, only the Holy Spirit can give you genuine truths and peace!

The scroll is unsealed, church. The signs are screaming. Are you ready?

Thank you for listening today, folks. If this hit home, share it with someone who needs a reminder that Yahweh is still in control of all the timeline. I’ll see you next time. This is Elder Dan, signing off.

I humbly pray all these things to Yahweh through Yahshua the Messiah, our Master and coming King, amen. Kindly keep praying for the shalom of Israel. Take care. Halleluyah!

A Deep Dive into 2 Timothy 3 of the bible regarding boasters and pride in many people in the last days

Boasters, Pride, and the End Times

Hello to our beloved readers and listeners. Welcome back to “Spiritual Podcast,” the podcast where we unpack biblical truths and connect them to the world around us. I’m your host, Elder Dan. Today, we’re diving into a topic that feels like it was ripped straight from the headlines of our lives: the rise of boastfulness and pride in the last days, as described in 2 Timothy 3. So, grab your coffee, settle in, and let’s explore what the Bible says about the end times and how it speaks to the heart of our culture today.

The Scene: A World of Boasters

Picture this: you’re scrolling through social media, and it’s a parade of self-promotion. Influencers flexing their latest achievements, curated feeds screaming “look at me,” and a culture that rewards the loudest voices. Sound familiar? Now, let’s hit pause and turn to Scripture, because 2 Timothy 3 paints a strikingly similar picture. Paul writes to Timothy, warning that in the last days, “people will be boastful, proud…” and the list goes on. In this episode, we’re zeroing in on two traits: boastful and proud. Why are these such a big deal, and what do they reveal about the human heart as we edge closer to the end times?

Unpacking 2 Timothy 3

Let’s break it down. In 2 Timothy 3, Paul is mentoring his young protégé, Timothy, about the challenges he’ll face in a world drifting further from Almighty Yahweh. The “last days” Paul refers to aren’t just some far-off apocalyptic future—they’re the period between Yahshua’s ascension and His return! In other words, friends, we’re living in those days right now. And Paul’s warning about boastfulness and pride? It’s not just a prediction; it’s a mirror held up to humanity’s tendency to elevate self over Elohim.

To be boastful is to exaggerate your own worth, to shout your accomplishments from the rooftops, often at the expense of truth or humility. On the other hand, pride, its close cousin, is the root attitude that says, “I’m the center of my own universe.” Together, they create a toxic cocktail that Paul says will define the last days. But here’s the kicker: these traits aren’t just “out there” in the world—they can creep into our own hearts if we’re not vigilant.

The Cultural Pulse: Pride on Display

Let me be more real and say it for what it is. Our world thrives on self-exaltation! From reality TV to viral videos, the message is clear: you’ve got to hustle, shine, and make sure everyone knows it. We’re told to “build our brand,” to chase clout, to be the loudest voice in the room. And while there’s nothing wrong with celebrating heavenly-given gifts, the line gets blurry when our identity becomes tied to likes, followers, or accolades.

Think about it: how often do we see people boasting about their wealth, their status, or their “perfect” lives? Social media amplifies this, but it’s not new. Paul saw it coming 2,000 years ago. And here’s where it gets heavy: this boastful, prideful spirit isn’t just a cultural trend—it’s a spiritual warning sign. When we prioritize self over Elohim, we’re stepping into dangerous territory, drifting from the humility that our Savior Yahshua modeled.

The Heart of the Matter: Why Pride and Boasting Matter

So, why does Yahweh, our Father in heaven, care so much about pride and boasting? Because they’re the opposite of the gospel. The gospel says, “You are loved not because of what you do, but because of what Yahshua the Messiah has done.” Pride says, “I’ve got this on my own.” Boasting says, “Look at me, world!” But Scripture calls us to a different posture: “Let the one who boasts, boast in Yahweh” (1 Corinthians 1:31). Yes, our worth isn’t in our achievements—it’s in being children of Elohim!

In the last days, Paul warns, this self-centeredness will intensify. People will chase their own glory, reject humility, and scoff at Yahweh’s truth. Sound familiar? Just turn on the news or scroll through social media, and you’ll see it: a world obsessed with self, where humility is seen as weakness and boasting is a way of life.

A Call to Humility

But here’s the good news, friends: we don’t have to follow the worldly ways of the many people in the last days. As believers, we’re called to swim against the cultural current. 2 Timothy 3 isn’t just a warning—it’s a wake-up call to live differently! So, how do we do that?

Check Your Heart: Are you boasting in Yahweh’s work in your life or in your own strength? Take a moment to reflect. Are your words and actions pointing people to Yahshua or to yourself?

Embrace Humility: Yahshua, the King of Kings, washed His disciples’ feet. If He can humble Himself, we can too. Look for ways to serve others without seeking the spotlight.

Filter Your Feed: Be mindful of what you consume and share. Are you feeding pride by chasing validation online? Curate your influences to align with Elohim’s truth.

Anchor in Scripture: Paul didn’t leave Timothy hanging—he urged him to hold fast to Yahweh’s Word (2 Timothy 3:16-17). Let Scripture shape your perspective, not the world’s applause.

Wrapping It Up: A Challenge for Today

As we navigate these last days, let’s remember that pride and boasting aren’t just personal struggles—they’re signs of a world turning away from Yahweh. But we have a choice. We can live counterculturally, reflecting the humility and grace of Yahshua. So, here’s my challenge to you: find some ways to boast in Yahweh Almighty. Share a story of His faithfulness, lift up someone else, or simply step back from the need to be seen. Let’s be a light in a world that’s shouting for attention.
