IS Grok REALLY, REALLY an AI chatbot?
Stuck in traffic this morning and trying to distract myself from the prospect of missing my flight, I decided to grok a bit, just to confirm if I am the only mad one or if Grok shares in some of my alleged insanity.
"This guy you want to marry, is he really, really born again?" Whenever I reference such popular statements in my teaching, it is usually to say how theologically inaccurate it is, even though the intent may be noble. I would then say that the born again experience itself cannot be improved, therefore there are no degrees of born-againness, meaning that you are either born again or not born again. I would then clarify that what such statements actually intend to query is transformation and not regeneration. Anyone who has not heard me teach this hasn't heard me teach on holiness or transformation, at all.
So, seeing that there has lately been some noise about a clip of me saying there is a gradient in holiness or something of that hue (truth is, I haven't watched that clip, but I know what I have said – here & there – in that regard), I decided to disturb Grok this morning.
First I asked Grok to theologically differentiate between Righteousness & Holiness. It came back with the typical, orthodox response associating Righteousness with Justification (imputed & positional) and linking holiness with Sanctification (practical & progressive).
I followed up with the question in the screenshot. I asked:
"Theologically therefore, can a Christian be more holy than another, even though they are both equally righteous?"
First line of Grok's response, was:
"Yes, theologically, one Christian can be more (progressively) holy than another, even while both are equally righteous in the sight of God."
The last paragraph of Grok's response went:
"In short: Equal in Christ’s righteousness and positional holiness—yet capable of real differences in progressive holiness here and now. This is the consistent biblical and theological framework across historic Protestant, Reformed, and evangelical teaching."
I chucked to see Grok appealling to "historic Protestant, Reformed, and evangelical teaching." As if to say, "if you think I am insane in saying theologically, a Christian can be said to be more holy (progressively) than another, I got my view from historic Protestant, Reformed, and evangelical teaching."
WHERE THE CRITICS ARE RIGHT, but...
Granted, a theological case can be made for the view that in a sense a believer can be more holy than another, yet, it is another matter how believers express it.
Some believers pray in tongues more than others, yet, it isn't Christlike to boast to a whole church: "I thank my God that I pray in tongues MORE THAN you ALL..." Therefore, if you wake-up and begin to flaunt your supposed superior holiness in the faces of believers, it may actually be the evidence that you are not so holy after all, because flaunting in this case is synonym for boasting. Boasting, in context is not one of the evidences of holiness. Here then, the critics would be right, if there was no context to the clip other than just an attempt to say I am more holy than some believers (real or imagined).
But there is a context. It is that everytime some believer comes up to charge the church to holy living, some other believers (trying to discredit or discourage the preacher), would say things like: "see how he is talking as if he is more holy." It is against the backdrop of this blackmail strategy that I usually respond with, "So what? I may actually be holier than you, and you may truly be holier than me, because we are not all holy to the same degree." I say it in more or less a polemical context, to bite the bullet and return to the main issue of advocating for purity.
If context is missing in clip, I'd still expect critics to at least say, "I can grant the theology, but I don't see the piety – without context."
But Gotcha!
NB:
I just asked Gemini too

Dear Christians,
Leave Nigerian YouTube rom-coms where the dominant message is two people falling into sexual relationships through morally casual means.
Denounce shows like Love Island, where sexual immorality, sensuality, and nudity are glamorized and packaged as entertainment for you.
Christians, bikini-wearing single strangers gather in a luxury villa and couple up in order to stay on the show.
And that is it. Strangers suddenly become couples. Sex and nudity become the dominant features of the program.
The show is rated TV-MA (Mature Audiences) in the United States.
Its content includes:
Contestants spending most of the day in bikinis, swimsuits, and revealing clothing.
Frequent discussions about sex, sexual attraction, and romantic relationships.
Kissing challenges where contestants kiss multiple people.
Couples sharing beds together and scenes showing couples becoming intimate under the covers in bedrooms.
This is what you are consuming as a Christian. Please, stop it.
The Bible says that we should leave all impure acts behind:
"Therefore, since we have these promises, dear friends, let us purify ourselves from everything that contaminates body and spirit, perfecting holiness out of reverence for God." (2 Corinthians 7:1)
Why gratify the desires of the flesh? Why fill and feed the lusts of your flesh?
These shows, the BBL-augmented actresses acting out fantasy romance scenarios in Nigerian YouTube movies;
the alcohol-fueled and nudity-filled BBNaija Friday night parties;
and the soft pornography of Love Island are categorically works of the flesh:
"The acts of the flesh are obvious: sexual immorality, impurity and debauchery...drunkenness, orgies, and the like.
I warn you, as I did before, that those who live like this will not inherit the kingdom of God." (Galatians 5:19–21)
So why are you holding on to the things the Lord has called unholy?
Did the Lord not command His saints to come out of Babylon and touch nothing unclean?
"Therefore, 'Come out from them and be separate, says the Lord. Touch no unclean thing, and I will receive you.'
And, 'I will be a Father to you, and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.'" (2 Corinthians 6:17–18)
Brethren, we are saying that these things are worldly wisdom, and they are corrupting you.
They are weights upon your soul, and they give birth to sinful desires within you.
It is sinful desire that leads to sin, and sin, when it is fully grown, brings forth death:
"But each person is tempted when they are dragged away by their own evil desire and enticed. Then, after desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, gives birth to death." (James 1:14–15, NIV)
So what should you do?
Desist from them.
Delete them.
The purpose of entertainment in the Christian life should be that which primarily edifies your spirit.
Music is meant to make the Word of Christ dwell richly within us.
Our speech is meant to be seasoned with salt so that it edifies the hearer.
And what ought to fill your heart—your inner person—is the Word of God, so that you may walk in holiness:
"I have hidden your word in my heart that I might not sin against you." (Psalm 119:11, NIV)
Brethren, please be holy. Consecrate yourselves.
You are God's treasure, God's workmanship, born of the Spirit, and God Himself dwells within you.
Live accordingly.
God bless you.
Rufai Oseni went hard on Bayo Onanuga and the Presidency on Arise News this morning.
Was the APC also being childish when it called for Goodluck Jonathan’s resignation? Was the APC childish when it pushed for a parallel government during Jonathan’s administration?

In 2027, Peter Obi will miss your vote, Alex Ekubo, but his followers will never forget your voice. The stand you took remains on record forever.
A true patriot and a Nollywood legend. Rest well, Chief. 💔🕊️
Anytime Data Boys ask you to show them evidence of Peter Obi's achievements in road infrastructure during his time as governor, show them this.👇👇👇
Bookmark, repost massively for the world to see.
BREAKING!!! ONE OF THE BEST DOCUMENTARIES ON PETER OBI IS OUT... As an Obidient, you should be proud of your choice in Peter Obi. Retweet massively pls.
2027 is Peter Obi's last shot at the presidency.
2027 is your last opportunity for Peter Obi to pull you out of poverty.
2027 is Nigeria's last chance for Peter Obi to rescue her from that structure of criminality, structure of corruption, structure of looting.
2027 is our last chance to be rescued from this worsening economy, and ravaging insecurity.
Irrespective of how the election goes, Peter obi will remain a wealthy man, a comfortable man, an accomplished man, and a fulfilled man.
The best and only opportunity to take advantage of Peter Obi's availability is this 2027, if not you will suffer. Think about your life 12 years ago, and think about it now. This is not about politics or political party. There is always a positive or negative consequence after every presidential election in Nigeria.
Those who fail to value the treasure they have because it is readily available, will eventually regret when such treasure becomes scarce and unavailable again.
Go out there, get your PVC, vote for Peter Obi and Kwankwaso (OK)
Vote for NDC, defend your votes and make sure it counts.
The Knife is in your hands, the ball is in your court. The choice is yours ✌️
Dear Nigerians, January 16th presidential election date for 2027, was well thought after, and highly strategic.
(1) Many will still be in their villages, and may most likely not vote.
(My Southeastern brothers and sisters)
(2) Salaries that will be paid between 22nd, 23rd and 24th December, must have been exhausted. (Rice, 5k or 10k for vote, will be highly tempting)
(3) House rent and school fees pressure will be hitting so hard by then. (5k, 10, or 20k for vote, will be so so tempting)
Please don't sell your votes. If you know you will spend January 2027 in your village, kindly apply to transfer your polling unit to your village now that INEC's continuous voter registration exercise is still ongoing.
Please go and get your PVC, and vote
OK and the NDC ✌️
It's your shortest cut to the actualization of our dream of a new Nigeria that is possible.
Abi suffer no dey tire you?
Retweet and share.

Dear beloved sports-loving Nigerian youths,
After watching the performances of Davido, Burna Boy, and Rema at the opening of the 2026 World Cup—at a time when Nigeria, the giant of Africa, is absent—I felt a measure of consolation. This was reinforced by the fact that many Nigerians playing for clubs worldwide are representing other countries. Felix Nmecha, for instance, set a record by scoring the fastest goal at six minutes for Germany. I write to you therefore, knowing that this country belongs to you, the youth.
You are more of stakeholders in Nigeria’s future than I am. I am 64 years old; by God’s grace, much of my journey is behind me, while yours lies ahead.
It is therefore imperative that you rise to the challenge by obtaining your PVC, your most powerful tool for driving the change you desire.
In the last three years alone, over 15 million Nigerians have turned 18—enough to decide who becomes President, Governor, Senator, Member of the House, or Local Government Chairman. Indeed, enough to shape the nation’s future.
I know many of you are sceptical about politics and political parties. I understand why, but scepticism must not become surrender.
You do not need to belong to any party or wait for anyone to organise you. Organise yourselves in your streets, campuses, communities, workplaces, churches, mosques, and social groups. Mobilise, debate, demand accountability, and take part in choosing those you wish to entrust with leadership.
If you are organised and wish to hear directly from me, invite me. I will come and share my plans for you and our nation.
Do not sit on the sidelines while others decide your future.
I appeal to you to register and vote. Your vote can shape who becomes the next President of our country.
My young friends, this is your country. Take it back.
A New Nigeria is POssible. -PO
IT WILL COST YOU ZERO NAIRA TO RETWEET THIS 🙏
Bayo Onanuga, Tinubu’s spokesperson, announced the sudden arrest of Ifechukwu Dennis as the originator of the fake AI voice note impersonating Tinubu.
He and authorities relied solely on a tech investigator’s video without contacting the investigator.
The investigator, Femi Unfiltered, has now publicly stated: Dennis is innocent.
He was not the creator, and authorities should have consulted him first.
This rushed arrest, with due process completely abandoned, is a clear case of ethnic profiling.
Dennis is Igbo.
In Nigeria, young Igbo men are too often presumed guilty before trial,
especially in politically sensitive matters.
Nigerian authorities and Presidency: Release Ifechukwu Dennis Now!.
