Is technology and computers part of God or separate?

[JeremyColosi]

Do computers display how perfect God can calculate things? or is this separate from God? Do you think there will be computers in Heaven? Do computers and technology show how exact and perfect God can be in doing things? Or is this different? Tks - Jay

If there's no computers or technology in heaven, then in my opinion it won't be heaven.

Look the bible makes it clear that all things are made by him and for him.... so yes computers are something through a person whom God created was able to be manifested. God is the reason why that person/group of people or whatever even had the intellect to lets say make a computer that really can be a useful device for finding scriptures, or watching sermons online, or keeping up with the world, or just yeah calculating things.


Now your 2nd last question... The bible says the world and the lust thereof shall pass away. The bible informs us that the flesh dies. Computers are a worldly thing... not to mention I talked to you about the good side of computers to show they can be used to spread the word of god or learn about God. But there is a bad side to them...pornography, the deep web, certain music videos, videos about why GOd isn't real etc. Additionally, computers tbh aren't perfect though they have flaws (such as the sinful content I mentioned) and limitations, so it's hard for me to really see them as perfect. I feel sure they can give us an ideal of God's perfection.... just like looking out how cells function per say can, but it's hard to find something that 100% demonstrates his full perfectness.


There are 2 key simple reasons computers won't be in heaven though, no indication of them whatsoever in scripture being there, they are 100% physical 0% spiritual.



Your last question I believe I answered, they kind of display God and what he can do but I feel we can't really fathom it as the bible states. We can't fully understand God or what true perfectness really is like here on a sinful Earth.

"The Bible doesn't mention.computers in heaven". So just because the Bible doesn't mention.computers it means they won't exist?

Then you could basically toss out auto-travel, computer things, board games, chocolate, deserts, and everything that has been invented since Biblical times. Which wouldn't be heaven much to me.

a key word you ignored in my comment is "heaven". I wasn't talking about computers not being on Earth just like board games, auto-travel, chocolate, desserts are on Earth becuase we are in the flesh with a digestive system...but the bible says the flesh will pass away and we will be incorporable in a new spiritual form.. It's an undisputed fact we have computers on Earth, in fact i'm utilizing one now to watch first take ESPN.

The Creator (God) is not the created (computers/technology). Nor vice versa.

OP,
Computers are a far cry from reflecting God's ability to calculate and his perfection but they may serve a purpose in relating God's glory to a lost soul in various manners. You certainly could use them as an illustration.
Will computers be in heaven?
So much is unknown about what will or won't be in heaven or the new earth.
One thing is clear though, there will still be people.
My guess is that there will be technology in eternity but it won't quite resemble what we think of now. God gave us creativity to imagine and craft tools in this less than perfect life, including computers. There's no indication that the creative ability will depart in eternity. There will still be structures in that 'time', cattle will still be raised, many things will be the same then as they are now, but I imagine that the conceptually different focus of the entirety of intelligent creation will lead us to some very different tool designs and applications. Will that include computers? I would think 'yes' but probably so advanced that we wouldn't recognize them today.
