"RE: Donna Danna: 01.07.24: image of the beast"


Donna,
That is a very frightening scenario, indeed!
Everyday, something like that becomes ever more possible each day they push the technological envelope.
Could there be a third part to the image, as well?
To completely counterfeit, or mock, or blaspheme, Jesus' creation of Adam, with body, soul, and spirit?
The body being the android that you mentioned.
The soul being the AI that you mentioned.
But what if the third part would be an evil spirit, in contrast to the following?

Genesis 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.


In that case, life came to the soul in the body by the entrance of the spirit breathed into Adam by Jesus, similarly explained in:

Job 33:4 The Spirit of God hath made me, and the breath of the Almighty hath given me life.


But in this case, the spirit in the image of the beast would be an evil spirit, an actual "ghost in the machine":

Revelation 13:15 And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed.
