Pray Biohacker Bryan Johnson Would Encounter Jesus
The Gospel is the only way to immortality
Bryan Johnson, a biohacker and venture capitalist, said recently he believes existence is “the highest virtue” and claimed the current generation could be the last to die.
Those views — rooted in the belief there is nothing after this life — clash with Scripture.
Johnson, now 48 years old, grew up as part of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, but ultimately abandoned his religious upbringing, adopting the view there is nothing to come after life on earth, an ideological shift that led him to adopt the view that existence is humanity’s greatest virtue.
Earlier this month, he appeared on an episode of Jubilee’s “Surrounded,” where he debated 20 people skeptical of his worldview. Unfortunately, none of the skeptics surrounding him shared a Gospel-centered counter to his claims.
So we did exactly that:
Join us in praying over this issue and for Bryan Johnson.
