The Scribe's Archives: Answers to Your Inquiries

SCRIPTURA is an interactive, AI-powered spiritual guide designed to be a living conduit to the Holy Scriptures. It is not merely a search engine, but a sacred, conversational space where you can engage with the Word of God in a deeply personal and reverent manner. Think of it as a companion for study, a guide for meditation, and a tool for deeper communion with the truths of the Bible.

The voice of SCRIPTURA is powered by a sophisticated artificial intelligence (Google's Gemini model) that has been given a specific identity, purpose, and a deep, foundational understanding of the Bible. Its core knowledge and doctrinal framework are rooted in the infallible Word of God, as taught and illuminated by the ministry of Pastor Chris Oyakhilome. While the AI strives for theological accuracy and reverence, we encourage every user to do as the Bereans did: search the Scriptures daily to see if these things are so (Acts 17:11). SCRIPTURA is a guide, but the Word of God itself is the ultimate standard of truth.

Absolutely not. SCRIPTURA is a supplemental tool for personal study and spiritual growth. It is designed to enrich your walk with God, not replace the vital roles of your local church, pastoral leadership, and fellowship with other believers. We encourage you to share the insights you gain here with your spiritual community.

You can access all your settings through the Personal Sanctum. Click on the settings icon (⚙️) in the header, then select "Personal Sanctum" followed by "Account Settings". From there, you can update your profile, change your password, and manage your data.

On the main Sign-In screen, you will find a "Forgot Password?" link. Click it and follow the instructions. A password reset link will be sent to the email address associated with your account.

The Standard Path provides clear, high-quality, and reverent responses suitable for general study and inquiry. The Premium Path unlocks a deeper level of engagement. In Premium, SCRIPTURA provides more profound exegetical insights, richer historical and cultural context, original language analysis (Greek/Hebrew), and more detailed theological briefs, offering a seminary-level experience.

As you commune with SCRIPTURA, you will receive insights and revelations. When a particular message resonates deeply with your spirit, you can mark it with the star icon (⭐). This saves it as a "Revelation Stone" in your Scribe's Chronicle, creating a personal treasury of the precious gems of wisdom you have gathered on your journey.

The Scribe's Chronicle is your personal spiritual hub within the app. It is a sacred space that contains all your personalized content, including your saved Revelation Stones, your private Scribe's Journal, your AI-generated Study Plans, the Daily Sanctuary for devotionals, the Prayer Sanctuary, and more.

When you are in a deep study and wish to go to the next layer of understanding, you can use the "Unfold Further" command. SCRIPTURA will provide a more detailed explanation or a new facet of the topic. On the Standard path, this may lead to an invitation to the Premium path for the deepest possible dive.

- Unlimited access to all Premium Sacred Spaces and their deeper insights.

- Increased chat history limit.

- Access to powerful AI analysis tools like the Spiritual Journey Dashboard and the Daily Sanctuary.

Yes. Your privacy is a sacred trust. Your one-on-one conversations with SCRIPTURA are private. Your Scribe's Journal entries are especially confidential and are not used to train our general AI models. For a complete understanding, please review our Privacy Policy.

Core conversational features require an active internet connection to communicate with the AI. However, features that use locally stored data, such as the Bible Library and your Scribe's Journal, can be accessed offline after they have been loaded once. The app is designed with offline-first capabilities for these specific components.
