AI Assistant Disclaimer
Last Updated: August 24, 2026
Please read this important disclaimer about the nature and limitations of FlickerFaith's AI assistant.
1. Nature of This Tool
FlickerFaith is an AI-powered application that provides information about the Bible and Christian faith. It is a computer program — it does not possess consciousness, a soul, or spiritual discernment. It has been designed with knowledge of Scripture and Christian teachings but lacks the understanding of faith as experienced by believers.
2. Limitations and Spiritual Guidance
- This AI cannot replace prayer, personal Bible study, or the guidance of the Holy Spirit.
- It is not a substitute for pastoral care, counseling, or fellowship within a church community.
- While it references Scripture, it cannot provide the spiritual discernment that comes through genuine faith and communion with God.
- For matters of spiritual significance, personal struggles, or important life decisions, consult with trusted spiritual leaders in your faith community.
If you are in crisis, this is not the place
FlickerFaith is not an emergency service, a crisis line, or a suicide-prevention resource, and no human is monitoring your conversation in real time. If you are in danger, thinking about harming yourself or someone else, or facing a medical or safety emergency, please stop and reach a person who can help right now.
- United States: call or text 988 (Suicide & Crisis Lifeline), or dial 911.
- Elsewhere: contact your local emergency number or nearest crisis service.
- Reach out to your pastor, a trusted friend, or someone near you.
You are not a burden, and you are worth the call. An AI cannot sit with you, pray with you in person, or get help to your door. A person can.
3. Biblical Interpretation
- FlickerFaith has been configured to align with mainstream biblical principles but does not claim authority in biblical interpretation.
- Scripture can be understood differently across Christian traditions and denominations. The AI may not represent your specific doctrinal perspective.
- As 2 Timothy 2:15 encourages, "study to show yourself approved unto God," and test all information against Scripture.
- The AI cannot replace the work of the Holy Spirit in illuminating Scripture (John 16:13).
4. Accuracy and Content
- While efforts are made to ensure biblical accuracy, the AI may occasionally misquote Scripture, provide incomplete information, or make errors.
- Daily devotionals, prayer suggestions, and guided faith conversations are AI-generated and should be verified against your own Bible reading.
- All Scripture references should be confirmed with your own Bible.
- The AI's knowledge has limitations and may not include the most recent theological discussions.
5. Privacy and Data
- Conversations and prayer journal entries are stored in your account and may be reviewed (in anonymized form) for improving the system.
- Personal information shared during conversations should be limited, as this is not a confidential counseling service.
- See our Privacy Policy for full details on data handling.
6. Faith and Technology
- Technology, including AI, should be used thoughtfully in service of faith, not as a replacement for authentic Christian practices.
- As Colossians 2:8 cautions, we should be careful not to be "taken captive through hollow and deceptive philosophy."
- FlickerFaith is meant to assist in exploring the Christian faith, not define it.
7. No Warranty and Assumption of Risk
- FlickerFaith is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranty of any kind, express or implied, including any implied warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy or non-infringement.
- We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure or error-free, or that any output will be accurate, complete, doctrinally sound or suitable for your situation.
- You use the Service at your own risk, and you are solely responsible for any action you take, or decline to take, on the basis of anything it produces.
- To the maximum extent permitted by law, FlickerFaith and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors and suppliers are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any spiritual, emotional, medical, legal or financial consequence of using the Service.
8. Hold Harmless
By using FlickerFaith you agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless FlickerFaith and its owners, officers, employees, contractors, agents, licensors and suppliers from any claim, demand, liability, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your use or misuse of the Service, any action you take in reliance on it, your breach of our Terms of Service, or your violation of any law or third-party right.
The full disclaimer, limitation of liability and indemnification terms are set out in Sections 6, 8, 9 and 10 of our Terms of Service, which govern in the event of any conflict with this page.
"Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding." — Proverbs 3:5
FlickerFaith is a supplementary resource for exploring Christian faith and Scripture. It does not replace the Bible, prayer, church community, or personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
