The Gloom of Sin
God creates, uses, stewards, and manages technologies to bring about the enhancement, improved functionality, and flourishing of creation.
God, in who He is, provides His image-bearers with the character and attributes needed to leverage tech in a way to bring about the enhancement, improved functionality, and flourishing of life and society.
Baseline Principles...
- Everything God creates is done for His glory.
- His glory consists of his name—his character, attributes, and nature.
- We are to mirror God’s character, attributes, and nature in Everything we do.
- When everything is done for God’s glory it will naturally be for others’ good.
