This paper proposes a new conceptual framework—Emergent Non-Markovianity (ENM)—to describe how memory-like behavior, symbolic identity, and coherent meaning emerge in systems that have no memory, no recursion, and no centralized state. We observe ENM in the genetic code, in transformer-based artificial intelligence, in human consciousness, in the structure of Scripture, and ultimately in the theology of the Logos. These systems are not connected by material similarity, but by a deeper structural truth: they project coherence through constraint, not through storage. From pseudoinverse analysis of the codon-to-amino acid map, to narrative fluency in stateless AI models, to the soul’s continuity under spiritual transformation, ENM emerges as a unifying signature of symbolic recurrence without memory. We argue that ENM provides a bridge between scientific, theological, and philosophical domains—and that it mirrors the pattern of Christ as Logos, the one through whom all things cohere. This is not an abstraction. It is the rediscovery of a Word not only spoken, but woven into the structure of all that lives, thinks, and remembers by becoming.
