We’re living in a time when information is everywhere—but truth is increasingly hard to find. Artificial intelligence can rewrite Scripture. Algorithms can silence the Gospel. Digital platforms can erase generations of faithful teaching with the click of a button. But here’s the good news: the Word of God never changes. As Psalm 119:89 says, “Forever, O Lord, Your word is settled in heaven.”
At Goshen Apostolic Institute, we believe that preserving the truth of God’s Word is non-negotiable. And in this era of misinformation and censorship, we must be strategic. Just as the early church preserved scrolls and parchments, we’re now called to secure Scripture and sound doctrine in the decentralized spaces of Web3.
💎 Step 1: The Word is Immutable
Scripture doesn’t need an update—it just needs protection. Platforms like Arweave allow us to store unchangeable versions of the Bible that can’t be deleted. Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) can authenticate original teachings, sermons, and creeds, while decentralized tools like IPFS ensure that digital Bibles remain freely accessible—even in regions where Christianity is censored.
⚔️ Step 2: Combatting Deception in Real Time
Jesus warned us in Matthew 24:4: “Take heed that no one deceives you.” In an age of deepfakes and AI-generated sermons, we need spiritual discernment and technical safeguards. Imagine a system where pastors and theologians are verified by “Soulbound Tokens” that can’t be faked. Or where a community-driven DAO (decentralized autonomous organization) flags doctrinal errors in real time. This isn’t sci-fi—it’s strategy.
🌍 Step 3: Taking the Gospel into Web3
Mark 16:15 commands us to “go into all the world and preach the gospel.” That includes the metaverse. We’re seeing a rising wave of evangelists using Gospel NFTs, virtual church gatherings, and crypto-fueled missions. Transparent giving through blockchain ensures that missionaries receive support without interference from middlemen or corrupt systems. It’s the Great Commission—on-chain.
🏛️ Step 4: Preserving Doctrine for Generations
How do we ensure our children and spiritual heirs are rooted in truth? By building theological libraries on blockchain, where they can’t be lost or rewritten. Picture Luther’s 95 Theses or the Westminster Confession encoded as NFTs. Picture learn-to-earn discipleship programs, where students grow in the Word and earn micro-rewards for faithful study. This is the kind of innovation we need for such a time as this.
🚪 Step 5: Escaping Digital Babylon
We must be wise in how we engage with today’s digital empire. Revelation 18:4 warns, “Come out of her, My people.” That doesn’t mean abandoning technology—it means building righteous alternatives. From decentralized Christian social platforms to privacy-preserving coins like Monero that help persecuted churches. We must be equipped to operate outside of Babylon’s system.
