THE FUTURE: A.I. POWERED ROBOTS

AI is bringing us an incredible productivity boom. It will enable even low-income families to have access to products and services that in the past could have only been afforded by high-net-worth families. Mind you, there are going to be incredible job losses through AI and Robotics.

Every family with paid work will have an AI-powered executive assistant to help with daily chores and tasks. It will save hours a day normally lost to menial, low-value tasks.

Intelligent humanoid robots will be affordable and dramatically improve the quality of life. With righteous governance, we would be able to bring the rest of the world out of poverty. And we’ll be able to soon cure diseases that today have no known cure with technology like gene editing.

With nuclear fusion technology – which will be, in part, powered by AI – not only will we have limitless, clean energy… but it will be cheaper than all forms of electricity that we use today.

Autonomous driving technology will actually reduce the cost of insurance because 94% of accidents will no longer occur.

However, we currently have corrupt governments. The US government prints trillions of dollars, runs a $1.6 trillion annual deficit, bails out the banking system, restricts U.S. energy extraction and production, and increases U.S. debt by $1 trillion every 100 days, and still thinks they can curb inflation. These policies are intentional, and they are designed to facilitate corruption and grift as well as weaken the economic power of the overall population. If you want to know how this will end then you will need to open your Bible, God’s Word. He has given us numerous end times prophecies of how He intends to take back control of planet Earth from Satan and have Jesus, His Son rule and reign over planet Earth for 1,000 years. God established Israel as his nation and it will fulfill its promise when its Messiah, Jesus, rules and reigns the world from a new Jerusalem (http://www.millennialkingdom.net).

The theory of evolution is a failed theory. The discovery of DNA and the electron microscope rang the “death knell” of evolution according to Dr Dean Kenyon. He was Professor of Biochemistry at Stanford University and had written two evolutionary biochemistry textbooks when he came to this conclusion. DNA is complex information that controls the manufacturing factories and transport devices within each cell. Information comes from one source, and that is intelligence. Moreover, there is no way the manufacturing factories and transport devices that are controlled by the information on the DNA could have evolved. Both needed to be functional on day one. The evidence for an Intelligent Creator (God) is overwhelming.

God has revealed the true history of the Cosmos. It is not the billions of years required by evolution but 6,000 years. The worldwide flood of Noah’s Day gave the world billions of dead things, and fossil fuels (buried flora and fauna).

We have had 6000 years with Satan and his demons controlling the world. During Jesus’ Millennial Kingdom, Satan will be bound but at the end of the thousand years he is released and sadly he is still able to convince a multitude of people to rebel against Jesus and the glorified Saints. They are quickly destroyed. God then destroys this Earth and Heaven. The second resurrection and White Throne judgement then follow. It is only after the White Throne judgement does John sees the heavenly Jerusalem descending to a new Earth where only the righteous will dwell.

GOVERNMENTS HELL BENT ON DESTRUCTION

Regular use of cannabis doubles the risk of psychotic symptoms ­including schizophrenia and is closely associated with anxiety disorders, depression and ­psychosis, says official advice to the Morrison government triggered by the passage of new laws in the ACT.

The briefing paper prepared for Health Minister Greg Hunt reveals extensive links between cannabis use and adverse mental health affects, which have “broadened considerably” as marijuana is decriminalised.

In the three-page brief obtained by The Weekend Australian, the Health Department lists five “key issues” or research findings to consider after the ACT Legislative Assembly passed a ­private member’s bill allowing adults to possess 50gm of cannabis and grow two plants. Individual households can have up to four plants.

The ACT is set to be the first jurisdiction to allow personal cannabis use.
The ACT has become the first Australian jurisdiction to legalise the possession, use and cultivation of small amounts of cannabis.

The department notes there has been a sizeable body of work analysing the adverse physio­logical and mental health effects of recreational cannabis use, des­pite marijuana being decriminalised only in a small ­number of jurisdictions.

It points to research from the US state of Colorado that found daily or near-daily cannabis use was associated with the development of a psychotic disorder.

The review of medical literature also examined Australian research, which concluded that regular cannabis users doubled their risk of experiencing psychotic symptoms — including schizophrenia — and were at an increased risk of screening positively for psychosis.

“The evidence base regarding adverse health effects linked to cannabis use has broadened considerably since the gradual decriminalisation, and in some cases legalisation, of the substance in certain international jurisdictions,” the department says.

“Adverse health outcomes as a result of regular cannabis use are not limited to mental health and psychotic symptoms.”

The department advised that a 2018 Canadian Medical Association Journal report found an overwhelming volume of evidence outlining the biological harm of cannabis use, including brain changes, adverse cognitive outcomes, negative pregnancy outcomes and testicular cancer.

The briefing also says a psycho­active component in cannabis called tetrahydrocannabinol, the main chemical responsible for the drug’s psychological effects, increased by almost 30 per cent throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s. This was linked to exacerbated symptoms of anxiety, depression and psychotic symptoms in “naive” users and increased psychotic symptoms and dependence in “experienced” users.

In Colorado, the first US state to legalise marijuana, emergency department visits due to cannabis increased slightly while the acute effects of THC — including hallucinations, paranoia and delusional beliefs — markedly increased with higher doses.

Government sources said the departmental advice was a “devastating confirmation” of the health and mental health effects of recreational cannabis and urged ACT Chief Minister Andrew Barr to explain what health advice he received before supporting the legislation.

God’s word tells us that lawlessness will increase in the last days and this is just further evidence to support that premise.

Financial Crisis Inevitable – going to end badly say the experts

If this dialogue between two well known and respected financial experts doesn’t convince you we are in the Biblical end times nothing will.

Chris Martenson of Peak Prosperity interviews John Rubino author of two best sellers “The Crash of the Dollar” and “The Money Bubble”.

You need to listen to these two experts because they know that whilst the 2008 Economic Crisis was bad, the next one is going to be humungous. Why, because governments have allowed those that created the problem which was ‘out of control debt’ to try and fix it with more debt. People who should have been jailed are still there creating another big debt bubble which is then fixed with more debt. We see the smart architects of the problem get out and sound the warning of impending disaster. They caused the problem but now want to be seen as the voice of sanity. People like Greenspan write best selling books and still earn a fortune on the author circuit.

It can only end badly says John Rubino. “Debt is growing beyond all reason, it is going to end badly, it is beyond our control”.

Governments are already preparing for civil unrest and domestic terrorism. During the 2008 crisis the government was days away from instituting martial law. Well, the debt situation is exponentially larger with no fix possible because the complexity of the deregulated financial markets is such that even the experts can’t predict what will happen, let alone governments. They will have difficulty working out what happened and who was responsible even after the collapse. Listen to some of the descriptions: “Moral corruption in governments”, “Financial markets devolving into a branch of the Mafia”, “Sound money is a moral issue”, “Need to impose financial morality on governments”.

John Rubino suggests a good solution for each of us at the end of the interview. Get together with your local community and start preparing now for the inevitable.

As Christians we know what is coming and we know the ultimate solution – Jesus ruling and reigning on this earth. In the meantime we should be doing what He taught us to pray for “Your Kingdom come, Your will be done on earth as it is in heaven”. Let us play our part in bringing His Kingdom to bear in our sphere of influence. Let our church and our families be examples of what His Kingdom looks like.
