Saints and Circuits

The secular conversation about technology is trapped between three exhausting options: build and hope for the best, reject the machine entirely, or accelerate toward whatever catastrophe awaits. But none of them ask the one question that actually matters. In this inaugural essay for Divine Cybernetics, I propose a different path rooted in the pre-Fall creative mandate, human dignity, and the simple question: what technology would a literal saint build? Not every tower is Babel. Technology ordered toward God is not just morally permissible. It's what we were made to do. This essay invites optimists, skeptics, and even accelerationists to reconsider what we build, how we build, and who it serves. The future doesn't belong to those who build without conscience or those who refuse to build at all. It belongs to those who build for the person. Saints and Circuits is the first in a series of essays extending infonumenatics into the real world where faith, technology, and the creative mandate intersect.

Tithing and the New Covenant: What Scripture Actually Teaches

A clear, biblical examination of tithing in the Old and New Testaments. The tithe was an Old Covenant agricultural system tied to ancient Israel—not a binding command for Christians. The New Covenant calls us to something greater: Spirit-led generosity grounded in the truth that God owns everything, not just a percentage.

Truth Reveals Itself in Paradoxes

This article explores how truth often reveals itself in paradox — from the paradoxes of creation and physics, to theology, history, and human innovation. From light being both particle and wave, to the Internet’s origins as a Cold War project of centralization that birthed global decentralization, paradoxes point us to a higher logic beyond human categories. Ultimately, the Cross remains the greatest paradox of all: death that gives life, defeat that is victory.

The Gravity Of Grace

God’s love is not a gentle invitation that may or may not be accepted; it is the supermassive center of all reality. Every created being, willingly or not, is drawn toward that singularity of holiness until nothing remains outside His light. Judgment is real, but it is the collapse of pride into glory—the moment when resistance can no longer hold against the infinite pull of grace.

Sunday Article (Oct. 19): Beyond Transaction: Recovering the First Thousand Years of Grace

When the Gospel Becomes a Threat

Many modern Christians have inherited a version of the gospel that sounds more like a warning label than good news. The doctrine package of *penal substitution* and *eternal conscious torment* portrays a God who must punish in order to love and who demands blood before forgiveness. Yet Scripture itself tells a different story—a ransom, a rescue, and a reconciliation. The time has come to recover that older, wider, and more beautiful truth.

The Victorious Gospel and the Urgency of Faith

This article explains why I am convinced of the Victorious Gospel: that Christ will reconcile all things, even through the refining fire of judgment. Far from denying hell, this view takes it seriously as corrective and purposeful. Scripture itself declares Christ as the Savior of all, especially of those who believe now. The “all” is certain, the “especially” is urgent.

A Person's Prayer and God's Answer

We do not live for this world. We have a better one ahead of us, and we should live with that in mind, because it will motivate us, and the Scriptures will be a compass that will keep us firm on the path.
