Being wise and intelligent in the world is not wise at all.God doesn't become easier to know because of technology performance.The evolution of technology doesn't affect God of facilitate to know Him;God is independent from technology and science.He needs love and broken hearts,not money or great brains.
What do you think?
 
Well, the intelligence to develop technology comes from God, so I do see how He plays a role. Do people abuse the gifts they are given? Of course, but God can always use anything we humans make to bring honor and glory to Him.
 
Technology like anything else can be used for good or evil depending on the individual. God gives us wisdom to help develop those things that bring glory and honor to His name. Technology gives me an avenue to take the word of God all over the world in such a way that I could never physically travel to. Technology has been from the beginning of time with the science of a creator (God) who merely spoke His universe into existence. Gods wisdom given to the first creation of man to develop a God given talent that has evolved throughout the generations. Technology is a gift from God, but it's up to the individual in how they use it.
 
Well, I'm glad someone invented writing, and then the printing press. It makes it easier to locate a Bible.

In the Gospels we see that Jesus did and said certain things to bring about the fulfillment of prophecy. I personally believe God uses technology for the same purpose.

Worldly wisdom and technology accomplishes little where the Christian is concerned, but in the hands of the world, it is fulfilling prophecy.

That's what I think.

You speak of science and technology as if they were bad things. I disagree. While it is true that technology doesn't affect God, both technology and science do help people to know God. Technology isn't just computers and electronics. Thing like the internal combustion engine or the steam engine before it were also technological advances in their time, and both involved the practical application of science. The printing press was also a technological invention. Then there are of course those things that we normally think of as technology, such as TV, CDs, DVDs, Radio, computers and the Internet. All of the things I have listed here and many more have enabled us to spread the Gospel faster and to a wider audience than would have otherwise been possible. There are tribes in remote locations that have been reached with the Gospel, that we wouldn't even know about if somebody hadn't flown over the area in an airplane and discovered them.

I think that technology has made it easier to know of God, which in turn makes it easier to know God.

That all depends on your level of confidence in being wise and intelligent.A person should always humble themselves before God.Wisdom comes from God not themselves.

If wisdom comes from God, wouldn't technological wisdom also come from God?

All wisdom comes from God.Too many people on this earth want to take credit for everything.That is not the case.

That's because they don't know God.

Technology can reach across the world teaching the attributes of God, but one can only know Him by having that personal relationship with Him. I can only know Kathi by what I read through the process of technology, but I do not know the heart of who Kathi is unless I sit face to face with her.
