If Technology Shapes Your Mind, Who Shapes Your Soul: Episode 388

Artificial Intelligence Vs. Biblical Intelligence: You ever scroll past a clip and freeze because you can’t tell if it’s real? That moment of uncertainty is bigger than tech. It touches trust, fear, and how easily our minds can be shaped when reality gets blurry. We sit with the tension between artificial intelligence and what we call biblical intelligence, a way of thinking rooted in God’s truth, not in whatever can be generated, edited, or optimized for attention. 

We talk about how AI can be helpful, but also how deception can multiply when deepfakes and synthetic content spread faster than discernment. When you can’t tell what’s true, manipulation gets easier and anxiety grows. From a Christian perspective on AI, the solution isn’t denial or obsession, it’s returning to spiritual practices that restore clarity: stillness, prayer, and daily time with Scripture. We also challenge the idea of “success” as something you can measure with a house, a relationship status, or a perfect image online, and we name how those markers can become distractions. 

A major theme is trust when God calls you into quiet or separation. We reflect on Exodus 14 and the push to go forward even when you don’t understand why certain doors close or certain relationships shift. If you feel like you’re being held underwater by fear, we offer a grounded next step: open your Bible, ask God to guide you, and listen long enough to hear what you’ve been drowning out. 

If this helped you think clearly, subscribe, share it with a friend who feels overwhelmed by AI and social media, and leave a review so more people can find the show. What part of your life needs more discernment right now?

AI Versus Biblical Intelligence

SPEAKER_00 0:00

Welcome back, listeners. I'm Robin Black, and this is It's All About Healing Podcast. Today, in this episode, I really wanted to speak about artificial intelligence versus biblical intelligence. The power of AI, the power of BI. Right? Both can be used for good and evil. It's always two sides. And AI, the one thing about AI is it forces a reality, right? It's artificial intelligence. So it's it's right there in the name, telling you that it's artificial, right? It's not authentic, it's not real. Not saying that all of it is a lie, right? Because sometimes AI can be used to be helpful in ways, but there's a lot of deception in AI, right? Sometimes it's hard to even determine what's real and what's fake. When you're scrolling through YouTube, sometimes you're like, is this video real? Is this really AI? If you're on Facebook, you're thinking, looking through these shorts, and you're thinking the same exact thing. Is this real? Is this fake? I'm not sure. As they always say, the enemy, right? He is the father of all lies. The enemy is out to kill, steal, and destroy. Stealing physical things, that's the easy part, right? Because I know the enemy is definitely going to want to come after you financially. That's going to be the first thing, typically. But things can always be replaced, no matter how long it may take. But we also have to learn to let things go because we can't be buried with things, right? So we we can't be out here worshiping things, especially when so many are focused on success, right? Like as though there's a marker of success. What are your markers of success, right? The universal thing of markers of success typically are oh, to be married, to be have that power couple, to have a house, a car, the white picket fence. Those are the markers of success if you have those. But everyone has a different marker of success of success. It doesn't really matter what everyone else is doing or saying might be it, but I digress. I'm gonna I'm gonna save that one probably for another episode because I could go into the markers of success for a long time. But to go back to artificial intelligence is it tends to, once your reality changes, we become easier to manipulate, especially when that optical illusion is there, right? It's very hard to determine what's real and what's fake. And when our minds can't really comprehend and be able to tell, is this real? Is this fake? I don't I don't know, right? So now that we're easier to manipulate, this mental prison, it's the enemy's playground. This is his habitat. That mental prison is where we can no longer remain. The only way out of there is if we seek God. God has already won. He already knows. He's already, he knows everything, he's the beginning and the end. He already knows what the enemy's gonna do, he already knows what we're gonna do, he knows everything. So we have to invite him in. We have to invite in that biblical intelligence. And before we invite in the biblical intelligence, right? Before we can try to figure out, say, oh, I don't know how to study the Bible, I don't, I don't know how to read the Bible, I don't know, I don't, I don't know what to do, right? Sometimes it can become overwhelming when you're on this journey, where you're trying to learn who God is. But it's like we're his instruments, just as instruments have to go through fine tuning, right? Before they're able to harmonize with one another. That's the same thing that we're doing. We're like his instruments. We have to go through fine tuning, right? But life is our fine tuning, it's about making our way back home. Just as Holy Trinity, right? The Father, the Son, the Holy Spirit. Our spirit, mind, and heart need to be aligned, right? They need to be on the same page so that they can harmonize with one another. Then that way we can harmonize with him. The moment doubt and distractions kick in, that's when we're led astray. And don't get me wrong, we're we're still human and God knows that, right? We're definitely not perfect. God still gave us grace for our imperfections, but he's still also very, very strategic and well calculated. He has already calculated our wrong turns, our mistakes, our problems. He's already calculated that along our paths, but it is us that still must constantly go to him and keep asking him for guidance. And I believe it's in the book of what was Exodus. I think it was Exodus 14, 15. And God, I remember because sometimes it's it takes that anointed time, right? When we are pushed into forced isolation, or when our friends, families, social media, when we feel like I don't know what it is. I there's just something telling me I need to part ways. I need to part ways with people, with things, with this job, whatever the case is. And you you kind of can't put your finger on why you feel this way. I don't know what it is. Everybody's getting on my nerves, the TV's getting on my nerves, the the social media is getting on my nerves, everything's just getting on my nerves, and I just want quiet, right? I just want peace. I don't know why I'm just I just feel this way. I just woke up feeling this way. That's God, right? That is how God speaks to us sometimes. He needs us quiet, he needs uh he needs us to be in that that stillness. That way we can hear him. And sometimes it's forced because God is saying, now is the time, now is that anointed time. And I saw in Exodus, as I was saying in Exodus 14, 15, God said, Why are you why do you cry to me? Right? He told Moses to tell the children of Israel to go forward, lift up your rod, stretch out your hand, stretch out your hand over the sea and divide it. And the children of Israel shall go on dry ground in the mist through the the mist of the sea. That's what he's basically saying to us. He's saying the same thing is you have to part ways, part ways with people, with things to get through. And it's not about God, I don't know, I, you know, this is my best friend, this is this, I need this job. I need sometimes the things that we try to hold on to or the things that God is trying to tear apart so that we can, we just have to lean on him, we have to trust him. Even when it doesn't look right, that's still God telling us, basically, stop complaining, stop crying. I need you to trust me. I don't need you to understand it. I don't need you to try to figure it out because your ways are not my ways, your thoughts are not my thoughts, and they never will be. He is above it all. He is above all of us. He is the beginning and the end. He is the alpha and the omega. He knows everything. He is everything. And that's what he, that's why we have to go through these trials and tribulations. Sometimes our trials and tribulations are to test our commitment to him, to make sure that we can still keep going to him. Dear Father God, help me. I don't know what I'm doing. I need your guidance, I need your strength. I gotta pray to God every single day. Again, that daily bread. Prayers are like electricity. The only way it gets, they keep going up is to keep that momentum, keep going up. Praises or prayers go up, blessings come down. You just keep it going. It's not like a, oh, I just talk to God every once in a blue moon, something bad's happening. Right. Then I guarantee you, every once in a blue moon, something great is happening in your life. God is not gonna just be there when you're ready. When you say, God, now is the worst time that I've ever been. If there is a God, uh help me. You can go to God no matter when that time is for you. But the time is to definitely have God in your life every day. That's where we want to start being. We want to be in that being every day, in that Bible. Somehow, some way, even if you say, Hey, I don't know how to read the Bible, I don't know how to study the Bible, I don't know what I'm doing. Ask for guidance. And God will give you that answer. He will bring you to a certain scripture, right? To a to a person that may be able to speak the word of God to you, right? They he will speak through others. Like I said, in that anointed time, you never know what he's telling you to do, what he's calling you to do, how he's going to use you. But we can't complain and say this doesn't feel right to me. This doesn't feel that I'm not seeing how this is making any sense. God says it does not matter. I need you to trust me. Especially when he wants to use some of us to help deliver others from a dark place. Sometimes he brings us to the wilderness to help deliver others from the wilderness. I remember watching this movie. What was it? I was just talking to my friend about it the other day. Bullet Train. I watched it with my children, and Brad, Brad Pitt, he was called Ladybug. And there was someone in that, in that movie, I don't remember his name. I don't remember what he was, what his part was. But he told him that a ladybug, the the spiritual meaning behind a ladybug is to draw in sorrows, right? So that everyone around the ladybug, they can actually have peace. And that just really resonated with me because that's how I feel sometimes, right? And they say I never understood why they said ladybugs are good luck, good luck charm. Oh, ladybugs bring peace or this, that, and the third, right? I never understood it until I just happened to be sitting down with my children and watching that. And I said, wow, that's that's fascinating because that that speaks volumes on my life, on other, I'm sure I'm I'm reaching others where you think, man, that does. That is the same exact way that I feel. It seems like all these things are happening to me, and I would never wish on my worst enemy to feel the pain that I have felt or currently feeling for some of you. But that's also the beauty of learning who God is and how he brings us stillness, how he brings us peace, how he can calm all of our storms. Some of these storms, we feel like we're being held underwater. And it's just like, God, what is this heavy weight? I don't understand what this is. It's like I'm being held underwater just by the hands of fear. Everything, I'm scared to move forward, I'm scared to stop, I'm scared to do everything. Everything seems too uncomfortable. God, I don't know which way to turn, which way to go. And God says, just go because I will go with you. That's where it took, I think it was the hardest for me to understand, is I felt I had to go in a certain direction. Like, God, where do you want me to go? You know, what am I supposed to do next? What's the next step? How do I get out of here? But God isn't somewhere where you can go to find him, right? He's already there. He's already with us. So no matter where we go, no matter which decision we make, it's not gonna be the wrong decision because we're taking God right there with us. Whatever we go, whatever's on our path, he's always gonna be there because he will never leave us nor forsake us. And that's how you find beauty in the message. Whether you get a message from this podcast, whether you get a message on the street from a billboard or from a stranger on the street, just anywhere. Anything that allows you time to just sit and really think. And it's that thought-provoking moment where it's just like I gotta go sit down and reflect on this, that's how you know it's God telling you. Now is the time. I need you to listen up, I need you to be still. Peace be still. So when you think about this artificial intelligence and biblical intelligence, AI wants to get us to the point where we're numb, where we're not thinking anymore. A lot of people are worried about their jobs. Are these AI robots gonna take over? What is this? Is this a real video? Is it not? They're taking children's faces and creating porn videos. There's a lot of evil that's involved with AI. And I know a lot of people they'll say, Oh, Trump is the Antichrist, right? As if it's just a person. But I believe the Antichrist is it's it's it's like the ultimate evil. It takes a widespread like spirit of deception. And I feel that's kind of what AI is, right? Because it's it's worldwide, and they're using it for a lot of evil. A lot of evil. Like I said, they're using children's faces and using it in pornography. They're using all these things in a very, very, very negative way. Some ways are great, some ways aren't. What's that one thing called for students? Google Lens. You take it, you screenshot it or something, and it gives you an answer, or it gives you the answer to a problem, to where you don't have to think. There's so much negativity that comes from AI. And the prefix of antichrist, right? With which is anti, anti is against or instead. So it's it's gonna be against the Bible, right? It's gonna be against your own thinking, it's gonna be against authenticity. So instead of God, hey, try to figure out on your own. Instead of going to God for the answers, go to AI for the answer. Because AI was built by what? Man. You don't we don't listen to man, we listen to God. We don't worship AI, we worship God. You don't go to AI for all the answers, you go to God for the answer. He's the one that we're supposed to worship, but AI completely takes that away from us. The enemy does not want us going to God at all. He doesn't want us to realize how powerful, how powerful we are, because the one who lives in us already has the victory. He's far more powerful. But the devil, he doesn't want us to know that. That's why he's creating this this mind-numbing technology. We don't have to think everything's easy. Because the moment we start to think, we know, hey, we're gonna get in alignment with God and we're gonna start saying, Hey, I don't need this, I can do this on my own because he that is in me is far greater, far greater than he that is in the world. They want you to forget, they don't want you to remember that. But I'm asking you to remember, I'm asking you to go to that Bible, open up the book, see where God leads you, just open it up. No matter where you're led, to what scripture, it's best to go there and find the answer. Whatever it is that you're doing, even if you just take 20, 30 minutes, even 10 minutes out of your day and just say, Guide me, God, get to a place of silence where you can find peace and just try to listen. Because what does that mean? That says our minds are like a parachute, it only works if it's open. There's no other truer statement than that. Stay blessed.
