ChatGPT on Other Gospels

WARNING: ChatGPT is not always factual, but the answers it gives here are basically representative of the vast training data it uses.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   Are there any secular groups or messages that derive from the Bible but exclude God (Example: Alcoholics Anonymous)? ChatGPT Yes, there are secular groups, principles, or ideas that have been influenced by the Bible or biblical principles but don't necessarily center their practices around a belief in God or might allow a more generalized concept of a "higher power" rather than a specifically theistic belief. Here are a few examples:     Alcoholics Anonymous (AA): As you mentioned, AA and its 12-step program for addiction recovery emphasize the role of a "higher power." However, this higher power is open to interpretation. It can be God, the AA group itself, nature, the universe, or any other entity the member believes in. The foundation of AA is heavily influenced by the Oxford Group, a Christian organizati...

ChatGPT on the Bible

WARNING: ChatGPT is not always factual, but the answers it gives here are basically representative of the vast training data it uses.   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~   Organize all the objective directives and statements in the New Testament in the same way. Don't include directives or statements given by people identified as God's enemies or who are otherwise against Jesus or His disciples or apostles. ChatGPT Organizing all the objective directives and statements from the New Testament is a vast endeavor, given the sheer volume and intricacies of the text. However, I can offer a broad overview based on the main categories or themes that these directives fall into. This summary will be a simplification and will not cover every directive or statement. 1. Love and Relationship:     "Love your neighbor as yourself." (Mark 12:31)     "Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." (John 13:34)     "Love your enemies." (Mat...

Remember Strategic Defense on the Spiritual Axis, Too

When resisting the World, we must consider not only physical but also spiritual tactics. They use fear and expect humanistic reactions. We react with knowledge of the truth and trust in God. Our faith - knowing God without seeing Him - is spiritual, but the World doesn't know the object of our faith, nor does the World see His power over them or His power with us. The fear they expect to dominate us by is overcome by our trust in the God Who loves us.

Allow Jesus, Even When You Think You Don't Want Him To

Sin makes it seem like what we want is unbearable and that being with our Master Jesus, face to face or in everyday prayer, is intolerable or that it lacks worth. Our sin produces these lies and more, and we do inconvenient things because of the death-corruption of our sinful bodies. Run to Master Jesus. Run to Him and let Him entirely embrace you, because you want Him to, even if your sin-blasted nervous system screams otherwise. You really do want Him to.

An Abhorrent Falsehood - Neither Rich Education in Ethics nor Poor Suffering to Learn Practical Morality Could Ever, Alone, Bring Us to God

No amount of suffering will wash your soul clean, and no amount of teaching will bring you to God, except for knowledge and belief about a very short list of facts concerning Christ when those beliefs lead you to the act of calling on His name for salvation by confessing "Master Jesus" with your mouth. The idea that the rich who can afford education and the poor who must suffer can get close to God by those means is known to Christ's Church as an abhorrent falsehood.

A Deeper Revival

If you can't go to an event, God, Himself, is always with all of us who belong to Christ, so.. ask Him and tell others to want revival where you are. :^D It all starts with salvation doctrine (in accordance with Romans 10:14a, believe 4 things in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-8 and do the 1 thing reiterated three times in Romans 10:9-13 to be saved), and, once you know you and all your fellows are saved, read the Bible and do what it says as a group, pray constantly, love each other in everyday ways, admitting to each other, conquering together, and not hiding from each fleshly subversive trouble as it comes, forcing every thought to obey Christ by knowing the truth and rejecting the evil things that flash through your soul, singing psalms, hymns and spiritual songs... Basically, being real Christians together is revival. Just think of it: if you live in Christ constantly, there's not much to be revived from. It's only when the flesh had taken over that revival - coming back to more ...

Accepting Your Innate Sinfulness Helps Your Relationship with Christ Jesus

Interaction with Jesus our Master is partly affected by our willingness to admit that part of our makeup is sinfulness. If you are too embarrassed to look at Him or if you think He doesn't want to look at you due to your sinfulness, then you won't have clear communication with Him. Once you finally admit that you are a sinner whether or not you are actively committing sins, then you can also admit that, if He can look at anyone - and we know He can - then He can look at you. So, accept your sinfulness - don't make God out to be a liar! He loves you, and you have followed that form of doctrine that was given to us all to belong to Him, dear Christian, sibling in our same Master and Savior Jesus, Who is God's Christ and our great gladness, indeed!

Advertisement for Christ - Emotional Trouble

 Don't get over your emotions      by ignoring them or           by pushing your guilt somewhere less visible. Understand, accept and incorporate all good things by believing the truth. Available only from He Who Is The Truth, The Master Jesus, God's Christ. *Get saved today*     Then you will be in a position to ask His help. **According to Roman 10:14a, believe the 4 things in 1 Corinthians 15:3b-8 and do the 1 things emphasized 3 times in Romans 10:9-13 to be saved.**

Be a Pest for Christ in All the Right Ways

I'd rather be a pest for my Master than an upstanding citizen in the World. If my urgings to remember Christ in a more personal way make you think ill of me, consider the impenetrable heart of the absolutely whitewashed, who use their seeming external cleanliness as a sign for others to stay away from them. They also think too much that this grubby personality they seem to perceive in me is abhorrent to them. They also think ill of Jesus' servant's actions that cause them grief from the barest mention of the possibility of a deeper life with God. Make them disregard their own cleanness and turn their filthy persons toward the only Christ who actually can clean them.

Happy Passover - Put Christ's Real Gospel Before Your Charities

This Passover season, let's take a step back from all our works to remember the salvific work of our Master Jesus Christ. His worldwide Church is collectively in danger of replacing salvation doctrine with works of charity, and it shouldn't be that way. The Worldlings who darken our door might see some love in a free lunch, but we are not waiters of tables, and they need more healthy food. Many of us explicitly refuse to tell them they are bound for Hell because of what they are, and they are trapped in troubles because of what they are, but there is a Way to be delivered from that! There is a way for you to connect the physical with the spiritual by telling them that their addictions and lusts and all their sins make them weak and sick and, finally, forever consciously dead in misery. Hell is the natural, right environment for humanity, and we can't work our way out of that reality. Without the shedding of blood, there can't be any remission of sin. God looked on the E...

God is the Great I AM, And I Am Glad

His property of self existence is something that I churlishly desired for myself, and He graciously broke me. Now I can freely see myself as I am: one whom He made and whose worth is not in my self determination but because of His love for me. Since He is my basis of worth and desire to act, my life has more meaning than I knew it had when I relied on my own will as the ultimate director of my life.

Boilerplate Letter Dividing Real from False Gospel in Nominally Christian Ministries

In your ministry, does "sharing the gospel" mean A) telling people that their sin leads to death, Hell and judgement, but if they believe Jesus died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, was buried, then God physically resurrected Him on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures, and then He was seen by many witnesses, most of whom were still alive years later and could have been questioned, and that if you believe those four facts and then call on the name of the Lord to be saved by verbally confessing "Lord Jesus", then you will be saved from the death, Hell and ultimate judgement that leads to the Lake of Fire, because Jesus came here to do the work necessary to ensure the salvation that comes to everyone who believes those four facts and verbally confesses Master Jesus, or B) that being good according to Jesus' teachings such as The Sermon on the Mount will make their lives better? Surely, 'B' is true only if 'A' is true first...

The Real Gospel Leads to the Behavioral Change that the Social Gospel Does Not

 True salvation causes true change; feeding the poor of the World instead of or before the poor in the Church, and feeding the poor in general in the Church before the poor widows, known for good works, too old to remarry, who don't have saved family members to care for them, according to the Scriptures, these things are perverse. We must feed the widow, tend to our own in the Church, and not refuse to tell the actual gospel of salvation doctrine that God revealed to Paul to those Worldlings we help. Those Worldlings are our enemies, as they are the enemies of Christ, yet, because we delight in His goodness, we do good to our enemies, and it's like pouring boiling water over their heads. Is it like pouring boiling water over the heads of those Worldlings we feed on a daily or weekly basis for years yet never tell them the good news about how the death which comes from their sin can be averted by belief in the saving work and confession of Master Jesus? Social justice is not the...
