I stopped by Solid Ground today and noted a couple of items of interest you might want to check out (yes, I know, this may tend to prompt biblio-covetousness, the great bane of Mrs. Calvinists everywhere—my apologies):
First, despite the repeated efforts of some folks to deny our existence or our legitimacy, we Reformed Baptists keep popping up. Reformed Baptist Academic Press has begun publishing works and their newest is going to be very interesting to a wide portion of our audience. Covenant Theology from Adam to Christ by Nehemiah Cox and John Owen is being offered at a 50% price for the next week. Edited by Ron Miller, Jim Renihan (my partner in the recent debate at sea in defense of the resurrection of Christ) and Francisco Orozco, this work will surely be useful for those studying the application and ramifications of covenant theology.
Second, Solid Ground is offering the Reformation Study Bible at a great price in the ESV translation. I know a lot of folks enjoy this study Bible (I personally don’t do the study Bible scene anymore, but some folks like to carry a small commentary along with their translation it seems).
Finally, Sam Waldron has released his book, To Be Continued, which addresses the issue of the sign gifts from a Reformed perspective.

Ties for Father’s Day!
James White, , Misc
So early last week I was thinking about what to get my dad for Father’s day (just ruined THAT surprise), and I started playing around with the software at zazzle.com. I had gotten my wife a calendar there for Valentine’s day and it turned out very nicely. So I started looking at their ties and how I could make a

Why No Comments?
James White, , Misc
I’ve seen a number of comments today about how this blog doesn’t have comments. That is quite true. Part of the reason is that up until December of 2004 this blog was about as old-fashioned as it could be: it was a straightforward html text file, nothing more. No RSS. Nothing. So, obviously, comments were not even an option. However,

Tim Guthrie and False Witness
James White, , Misc
As I have pointed out a number of times, the small cadre of Caner defenders seem to be drawn from the same circle of influence defined by Liberty University, Veritas Evangelical Seminary, etc. Yesterday on the Dividing Line I pointed out another connection that exists between one of the most emotional, vitriolic, and simply irrational of Ergun Caner’s defenders, Tim

Thursday Night Miscellaneous

Lord willing I will have time (and strength) tomorrow evening to fill you in on my “Birthday Bike Adventure” tomorrow, as I have mentioned my “climb a hundred feet for every year of age” birthday celebration tradition since 2005. I will be adding a little…extra tomorrow. For those with iPads or iPhones (or iPod Touches), there is an awesome Qur’an

Ad Hominem Argumentation (With Outer Space Update Added)
James White, , Misc
First, Patrick reminded me that I did not include the single worst sub-title from Hahn’s book on Mary, “Fetal Attraction.” Yes, that one takes the prize. A quick refresher for all those who seem to be easily confused about forms of argumentation. At the moment a fairly small group of folks are filling up the blogosphere with the constant assertion

No Dividing Line This Week, But Some Good Shows to Listen To!
James Swan, , Misc
For those of you wondering how you’re going to make it through the week without hearing The Dividing Line, Dr. White was on Chris Arnzen’s Iron Sharpens Iron program a few weeks ago. Dr. White presented a rebuttal to the Mormon reply to Fox News, and also covered a wide range of Mormon topics. The show can be found here.
