With signs following

 I asked an artificial intelligence online chat application (called Chat GPT OpenAI) “Please write me a short gospel message”. I took to heart its answer, and some subsequent answers, and the following night the Holy Spirit gave me dreams which encouraged me that Jesus the Lord himself confirms this gospel message - a rebirth experience. Here is its initial response:


“Sure, here's a short gospel message for you:


The good news, or gospel, is that God loves us so much that He sent His only Son, Jesus, to die on the cross for our sins. Through His death and resurrection, Jesus has made it possible for us to be forgiven of our sins and to have eternal life with Him in heaven.


All we need to do is accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, confess our sins, and believe in Him with all our hearts. When we do this, we become children of God and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, who helps us to live a new life in Christ.


So if you haven't already, I encourage you to turn to Jesus and receive His love and forgiveness. He is waiting for you with open arms, ready to welcome you into His family and give you a new life filled with hope, joy, and peace.”


I followed up the fact that the artificial intelligent said

“All we need to do is accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior, confess our sins, and believe in Him with all our hearts. When we do this, we become children of God and receive the gift of the Holy Spirit, who helps us to live a new life in Christ.” It is a little inaccurate to say this is all we to do. We need to also adhere to the teachings of Jesus. See John chapter 8 where some believed in Jesus but he still needed to tell them to adhere to his teachings in order to be set free from their sins and become children of God. I asked it to write me a short gospel message and to mention adherence to the teachings of Jesus Christ. This is what it wrote:


“Dear friend,


I bring you good news of salvation through Jesus Christ, the Son of God. He came to this world to save us from our sins and to show us the way to eternal life. Jesus taught us to love one another, to forgive those who have wronged us, and to live a life of obedience to God.


Through his life and teachings, Jesus showed us the way to true happiness and fulfillment. He showed us that the most important thing in life is not material possessions or worldly success, but rather our relationship with God and our love for others.


If we want to follow Jesus and experience the joy and peace that he offers, we must strive to adhere to his teachings. We must love our neighbors as ourselves, forgive those who have wronged us, and seek to live a life of righteousness and obedience to God.


Jesus said, ‘If you love me, keep my commandments’ (John 14:15). Let us therefore follow his teachings with all our heart, and seek to live a life that is pleasing to God. In doing so, we can experience the abundant life that Jesus promised to all who believe in him.


May the grace of God be with you always. Amen.”


I had some further ‘discussion’ with it and finally it gave me this gospel message:


“In addition to repentance and belief in Jesus Christ, the gospel message also calls for adherence to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Jesus taught about love, compassion, forgiveness, and service to others. He showed us how to live a life that honors God and reflects his character.

Therefore, as followers of Jesus, we are called to follow his example and strive to live out his teachings in our daily lives. This means seeking to love our neighbors as ourselves, forgiving those who have wronged us, and serving others in humility and kindness.

Jesus also taught about the importance of faith, prayer, and obedience to God. He called us to trust in God's plan for our lives, to pray regularly for our needs and the needs of others, and to obey God's commands as a sign of our love for him.

By adhering to the teachings of Jesus, we not only honor him, but also experience the fullness of life that God intends for us. We can find joy, peace, and purpose in serving God and others, and we can have the assurance of eternal life with him.

Therefore, the gospel message invites us to not only believe in Jesus Christ, but also to follow his example and teachings. By doing so, we can experience the transformative power of his love and grace, and live a life that honors God and blesses others.”
