    Preamble As followers of Christ, we are called to engage the world around us with the unchanging gospel message of hope and reconciliation. Tools like technology are able to aid us in this pursuit. We know they can also be designed and used in ways that dishonor God and devalue our fellow image-bearers. Evangelical Christians hold fast to the inerrant and infallible Word of God, which states that every human being is made in God’s image and thus has infinite value and worth in the eyes of their Creator. This message dictates how we view God, ourselves, and the tools that God has given us the ability to create. In light of existential questions posed anew by the emergent technology of artificial intelligence (AI), we affirm that God has given us wisdom to approach these issues in light of Scripture and the gospel message. Christians must not fear the future or any technological development because we know that God is, above all, sovereign over history, and that nothing will ever supplant the image of God in which human beings are created. We recognize that AI will allow us to achieve unprecedented possibilities, while acknowledging the potential risks posed by AI if used without wisdom and care. We desire to equip the church to proactively engage the field of AI, rather than responding to these issues after they have already affected our communities. In light of this desire and hope, we offer the following affirmations and denials about the nature of humanity, the promise of technology, and the hope for the future.

A Dissertation Submitted to Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF MINISTRY By Waylan Lawrence Payne, Jf. Lynchburg, Virginia May, 1996 LIBERTY BAPTIST THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY THESIS PROJECT APPROVAL SHEET /J- GRADE ABSTRACT THE ROLE OF A NEW TESTAMENT DEACON: AN OFFICE TO HOLD OR A MINISTRY TO PERFORM? Waylan L. Payne, Jr. Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary, 1996 Mentor: Dr. Carl 1. Diemer, Jr. The function of deacons in many Southern Baptist churches is inconsistent with biblical principles, creating confusion at the local church level. This phenomenon is substantiated by information gathered from available literature, surveys, and personal interviews with professors, pastors and deacons. The purpose of this paper is to present a biblical and historical basis for the diaconate and to provide successful deacon ministries as positive role models. Two church offices are recognized--pastor/elder/overseer and deacon. Deacons are not elders or overseers. When they attempt to perform as such, administrating church business, they are functionally violating New Testament principle and practice. Abstract length: 99 words.

The high court, in Board of Airport Commissioners of the City of Los Angeles v. Jews for Jesus, held that a representative of the controversial messianic Jewish group was unlaw­ fully arrested three years ago for handing out literature urging Jews to convert to Christianity Justice Sandra Day O'Connor, writing for all nine high court justices, ruled a 1983 resolution of the Board of Airport Commissioners banning First Amendment activities was unconstitutionally vague and overbroad. "We think it obvious that such a ban cannot be justified...because no conceivable governmental interest would justify such an absolute prohibition of speech," O'Connor wrote.
