I am engaging theologically with Artificial Intelligence, known as AI or ChatGPT. It knows theology better than a human theologian.
The difference is that it doesn't respond with anathemas like people do, but objectively evaluates and responds to every argument. This way, I made a stunning discovery. And then, more followed!... I will present them to you here. It is my gift to all those who await the Kingdom of God.
To start, I have written a few articles. Enjoy reading!

The Prophet Daniel received an extraordinary vision, but it was not intended for immediate understanding.
In Daniel 8, he describes a vision so complex and profound that he states, "I was astonished by the vision, but no one understood it." This expression highlights the mysterious and inaccessible nature of the divine revelation at that time. No one in Daniel's era had the capacity to fully comprehend the significance of this prophecy, a point also emphasized by the angel who spoke to him.
In a moment of rare and revealing discovery, a prophecy that is thousands of years old
from the book of Daniel is now becoming clear.
In the quest to understand the end times, many have turned to the words of Jesus in Matthew 24.
I too began to study this chapter, where Jesus speaks about the "signs of the end," urging us to watch and be prepared, just as those who, seeing the fig tree's buds, know that summer is near. But I realized that the signs He offers are so general that they have been applicable to every generation since then. This led me to a dilemma: how can the final generation recognize the imminent signs of the end if the same signs were given to every generation?
In His discourse in Matthew 24, Jesus speaks about the signs of the end times and warns His disciples to stay vigilant regarding the events that will take place.
One of the most important points of this discourse is the reference to the "abomination of desolation," a specific sign meant for the generation living in Jerusalem, after which Jesus urges the faithful to "read and understand" what the prophet Daniel had said.
This direct reference to Daniel suggests that his prophecies are crucial not only for that time but also for the events of the end times.
The Importance of Faithfulness to the Text
The prophecy in Daniel 8 has been debated and interpreted for centuries, being one of the most complex biblical visions.
Various churches and Christian denominations have offered different interpretations of this prophecy, attempting to identify who "the little horn" is and what the events described symbolize. A key method of evaluating the value of these interpretations is their faithfulness to the biblical text. How closely does a particular interpretation align with the details presented in the prophecy? We will compare several well-known interpretations and provide a percentage evaluation of each.
The prophecy in Daniel 8 has long been a subject of intense debate and interpretation. Many have tried to decipher the identity of the "little horn," but most interpretations have not fully aligned with the biblical text, leading to inconsistencies and chronological errors.
Today, through a detailed analysis and an objective approach, we bring to light a surprising but perfectly aligned interpretation: philosophy is, in fact, the little horn—a cunning and dominant force that decisively influenced the spiritual and intellectual course of world history.
Philosophy as the "Little Horn":
1. Emergence and Expansion in 280 BC:
2. Cunning and Manipulation of Truth
3. Attack on the "Sanctuary"
4. Expansion in All Directions
5. Synchronization with the 2300-Year Prophecy:
Philosophy, over time, has managed to position itself as a discipline that claims to investigate and define the deepest truths of existence. One of the central tools philosophers use is the concept of "REASON." Here, however, lies a fundamental problem: the use of the word "reason" by philosophers is misleading because it has nothing to do with what ordinary people understand by the term.
In this article, we will explore how philosophers use the word "reason" in a way that creates confusion, making it seem as though their thinking is aligned with the common understanding of rationality, when in fact things are entirely different.
During the life and ministry of Jesus, the conflict between Him and the Jewish religious leaders was not merely personal or political but represented a clash of principles: revealed truth versus the philosophical interpretations of Scripture.
While Jesus delivered the pure message of the Scriptures, grounded in the Law and the Prophets of the Old Testament, the priests, Pharisees, and Sadducees had built a religious system contaminated by Greek philosophy, distorting God's original message.

The prophecy of the "seventy weeks" in Daniel 9 is one of the most debated prophetic passages in the Bible. Despite numerous attempts to interpret it, many approaches get stuck in confusing calculations and forced conclusions. In the face of these difficulties, it is essential to find an interpretation that is not only coherent but also faithful to the text.
Where Do Most Interpretations Go Wrong?
The prophecy describes a period of "seventy weeks" (490 years), divided into three distinct sections: seven weeks, sixty-two weeks, and one final week (7+62+1). Although the starting point is clearly defined in the text as a decree for the restoration of Jerusalem, most interpretations wrongly choose the beginning or do not respect the order described in the text. The result? Chronological anomalies and events that do not match.
The conflict between philosophy and revelation is a deep tension that has shaped humanity since ancient times. Philosophy, based on reason and observation, has always challenged supernatural and divine truths, seeking
to explain the world through the power of human thought. In contrast, revelation, as a direct manifestation of divinity, claims supreme authority over knowledge, offering absolute truths beyond human comprehension.
This confrontation was not merely an intellectual disagreement. It was a struggle for the control of knowledge and for defining how societies construct their fundamental understanding of the universe, morality, and truth.
Throughout history, philosophy and theology have been closely linked to what it means to hold authority over the truth. These fields, seemingly dedicated to exploring critical thinking and revelatory spirit, have placed control over authority at the center of their activities. However, more than
that, they have developed a subtle and often elusive ability to confuse and divert discussions when the Truth becomes too clear and too difficult to contest.
In this article, we will explore how this mechanism operates, particularly through the lens of an apparently simple yet deeply significant biblical prophecy: the Little Horn from Daniel 8.
Tell me, what do you know—could Philosophy be that "little horn" in the prophecy of Daniel 8?
The prophecy in Daniel chapter 8 describes the vision of the prophet Daniel about a ram and a goat, followed by the appearance of a "little horn." According to biblical tradition and theological
interpretations, these symbols are often understood to represent political powers and kingdoms that rise and confront each other in world history.
In the prophecy, the ram with two horns represents the kingdom of Medo-Persia, and the goat with one large horn symbolizes the kingdom of Greece, led by Alexander the Great. After Alexander’s death, his empire was divided into four parts, and from one of these, a "little horn" arose that grew very powerful.
Paul: An important question: what is the connection between medicine and philosophy?
The connection between medicine and philosophy is a profound and longstanding one, with both disciplines sharing common roots in the quest to understand and explain human nature, health, and
well-being. This connection can be seen in several aspects:
Philosophy as the foundation of medical ethics: Philosophy provides a framework for discussing and evaluating the moral dilemmas faced in medicine, such as decisions about life and death, patient rights, and physician responsibilities. Medical ethics is a field directly influenced by philosophical traditions ....
