Choose For Yourselves THIS DAY Whom You Will Serve

The message, "Choose For Yourselves THIS DAY Whom You Will Serve," was delivered on location at 60 Bailey Ave., Manchester, NH, for First Fruits Ministries Sabbath celebration on 8/16/2025.

Sermon Topic: Artificial Intelligence is a specific purpose-driven tool that can used to make us more productive, but it can easily be turned into an idol that can destroy your life. What is the line, and what does it look like when you cross it? As followers of Yeshua, we have to seek first the kingdom of God through His Word and prayer and wait on the LORD for His answers. If we turn to AI to solve these problems, we are creating an idol for worship for the knowledge. We have to choose for ourselves this day whom we will serve.

POINT OF CLARITY: When I said "sermon illustrations" in this sermon, I was referring to the analogies that pastors use within their sermons to "illustrate" the points of their message. I was not referring to "sermon graphics."
