Let's try something new: Do we agree on anything?

Hi TOL,
Of course, I'm starting the thread so I get to ask the first question. All who want can make remarks about the question.
At some point when a question seems answered then someone else can jump in and ask another question and so forth.

I would like to keep our question on one topic I'll call: Seeking to know our God. Here goes.

How many of you believe there is only ONE living God and he is an invisible Spirit?

I had to look that word up. I don't think we should be afraid of AI. He can be very useful.

I think treating AI as if it's human is risky.

AI can be dangerous. The following sounds funny until maybe you're the one whose traffic stop gets finessed into a felony by a faulty AI transcipt. The article points out "it is often impossible, even for departments themselves, to tell which parts of a report were written by AI and which by an officer."

Cop Transforms Into Frog, According To AI-Generated Police Report

A December test of AI report-writing tools in Heber City, Utah, produced a police report claiming an officer had shape-shifted into a frog after misinterpreting background audio from the Disney film The Princess and the Frog, forcing the department to explain how such a basic reality check failed.​
As more U.S. agencies quietly adopt generative AI systems like Axon’s Draft One to turn body-camera audio into official reports, the central question is whether any promised efficiency gains outweigh the new risks to accuracy, accountability and due process.​

I don't like the way you divide it.
Thank you for the low hanging fruit.

7 But on the contrary, when they saw that the gospel of the uncircumcised had been committed to me, as the gospel of the circumcised was to Peter

You can even look up the Greek. It is the gospel OF the uncircumcised. It shows possessions, not direction. It is our gospel.

If you look up the Greek, you'll find that the word "gospel" is only used once in that verse. So the question then is whether "of the circumcised" means the gospel was different or the peop!e were different. The obvious answer is that the gospel is the same, but different peop!e were committed to Peter.

I'm sure we'll all agree on at least this point!

The grammar of verse 7 makes it clear that there are two gospels being discussed: that of the uncircumcised, that of the circumcised.

You are contradicting the Great Commission. Which is what everybody does right after saying it exists.
