For what it's worth, I am not getting "glow" signals from this project. It strikes me as sincere and well-meaning. There's definitely a youthful naivete to it, and I don't mean that it a condescending way. But to some of us, that will come off as immature and perhaps reveal a lack of self-knowledge. Of course, that is the nature of youthful projects. I don't think I'm your target audience, but best of luck to you.
As far as prayer, spirituality and excessive passivity, a lot of non-denominational Protestantism (and that's the vibe I'm getting here) betrays a lack of faith or even belief in spiritual realities. Lip service is paid to it, but when you scratch the surface, it is not taken seriously, and everything ends up being Millennial (pun intended) and this-worldly. It's a matter of testing your heart and conscience, and of "testing the spirits". Right action will flow from that. The spirit of antichrist (which means "in place of Christ", not "against Christ") will be a "Christianity" that takes advantage of AI, cutting edge technology, and attracts the cool kids. Not saying that is what this is, but I am saying that a certain amount of maturity and spiritual discernment is needed in all projects, which can -- easily -- be hijacked (by demons) to other ends.

It does not appear to be glowing, but also should try to tie itself to a major apostolic church. We don't need anymore divisions in the faith.

I dunno Jesus and John seemed to roast the establishment-- along with all the other prophets. But what do you do when you look at the apostolic traditions and see them embrace authoritarian structures that are really an affront to Christ's spirit? Or how about when you realize that the prots are all adulterous whores who just fabricated divorce out of thin air a couple hundred years ago? I usually encourage people to stay within the tradition they know but then be a prophetic troublemaker, because regardless of what tradition you come from all of the institutions are sitting on their hands. It was the religious establishment that murdered Christ though so no surprise really. If you read the NT through Jordan Peterson Jungian archetypes (LOL) the only conclusion you will come to is that the religious leaders ARE the bad guys-- far worse than the government. I love the moment right before Pilate is about to sentence Jesus to death and Jesus isn't saying much so Pilate goes "don't you know the power I have over you!" and Jesus is like "lol, you only have power cuz God gave it to you, the real bastards are the religious kikes who delivered me to you" -- even in death Jesus couldn't resist getting one last roast of the religious leaders.
No doubt. It seems likely the beast system will be all of the world's powers combining their data to create a God-like all knowing AI. One of the greatest underrated prophets of the 20th century was McLuhan who wrote this back in the 60's:
...the “Prince of this World” is a great P.R. man, a great salesman of new hardware and software, a great electrical engineer, and a great master of the media. It is His master stroke to be not only environmental but invisible, for the environment is invincibly persuasive when ignored… this could be the time of the Antichrist. When electricity allows for the simultaneity of all information for every human being, it is Lucifer’s moment. He is the greatest electrical engineer. Technically speaking, the age in which we live is certainly favourable to an Antichrist. Just think: each person can instantly be tuned to a “new Christ” and mistake him for the real Christ. - Marshall McLuhan, Medium and the Light
Ha wow "Jesus is King B****" flag.
Tells you everything you need to know.
Buyer beware.
Why don't you get with the Westboro folks while you're at it.
Also ...one more point. Don't you think Jesus might eschew the notion of a worldly mansion?

Everyone reading this thread - especially the OP - should read "Science, Politics, and Gnosticism" by Eric Voegelin and "Antichrist" by G.M Davis. "Jesus Mansion" isn't the first project of its kind and it certainly won't be the last. As Voegelin puts it, "Don't immanentize the eschaton."
It doesn't end well.

It tells me you're a boomer without a sense of humor?
Boohoo mansion big mad. You mean like Francis Schaeffer's L'abri? Or the countless monasteries scattered all over the world? Me and the boys are building a new workshop right now, coming soon El Choppa's JesusSuperMansion.You sound like the genx Dyerites who take their talkyboi philosophizing Big Serious so they can rationalize puttering around in houseslippers. Getting people together to do things for God is now immanentizing the eschaton, hmmmm... OK or maybe it's just fun.
Yes im a 72 year old boomer con who's got no sense of humor.It tells me you're a boomer without a sense of humor?
Maybe you ought to check out the local cowboy church while you're at it... I'm sure that's more realistic than your comparison to a swedish commune.
Comparing your blasphemous glowie flag and compound to a monastery is like comparing a 4th graders turkey painting at Thanksgiving to the Mona Lisa.
Thanks for playing mate. If it wasn't blasphemous it would almost be comical.
Assuming you're not just a troll...
You really don't know with whom your speaking on here.
Plenty of people invoke their version of Christianity when the gather people together for all sorts of terrible things.
You referenced the Anabaptists... That's totally a great model to emulate.
Shame on me for feeding the troll.
Now back under the bridge for you!
You came into a community with which you’re entirely unfamiliar and attempted to use what looks an awful lot like market-tested buzzwords that would appeal to very young, very immature Christians with no sense of doctrine, history, or spiritual sobriety. Suddenly your project, which at first was super serious and all about changing the world for “THE KINGDOM,” is about “fun” now that your idea is getting the pushback it deserves.
I understand your marketing plan here, it’s just a bad product you’re trying to sell to the wrong audience. The lack of intelligence and depth you’ve demonstrated doesn’t inspire hope for your gnostic vision, and duping the stupid into “AI beast” glow ops doesn’t seem like a very KINGDOM thing to do.
Please refrain from putting curse words in the Lord's mouth.

You guys have been staring at the shadows in your parents basement too long lol. It's glowing! Kidnapping politicans! What the hell are you guys even talking about? Perhaps you're projecting your own fantasies. Get off 4chan and go do something with your life. We're building stuff that makes the world more beautiful and helps people support their families. Like Christ, I've got no beef with the government but I will roast the talkyboi religious establishment all day. Our trash government is just God's judgement for how wicked his people have become.
Jesus called the religious leaders wolves. Paul called them dogs. I'm using a contemporary and accurate translation of Christ's words-- call it the canine imprecations of the NT
