Dr. White contrasts the modern LDS approach that seeks converts with seemingly the minimum amount of information possible, and the approach of their ministry, which is explicitly about distinctives and is prepared to positively teach what the gospel actually is.

Warren/Piper, Peter Lumpkins, Corey the Anti-Christian Apologist, and More
James White, , The Dividing Line
Wow, we covered the gamut today. Started off playing Phil Johnson’s comments on the Warren/Piper controversy that erupted last week, then added a few of my own thoughts, then moved on to Peter Lumpkins being awarded the “lamest attempt to malign” award for his “James White thinks it is dangerous to preach the love of God” silliness. Then we took

Ecclesiology, Response to Matthew Vines, And Almost a Third Topic…But Not Quite
James White, , Homosexuality, The Dividing Line
Flirted with going full Jumbo edition today but pulled the plug because even I could not handle transitioning from a full response to a new (short) Matthew Vines video (with a rather, uh, interesting lesbian interlocutor) to a discussion of the textual transmission of the Qur’an. Just couldn’t pull that off. But before discussing (and playing) Vines, I discussed some

Then we went

A Potpourri of Topics
James White, , Abortion, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Persecution, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line
Covered a wide range of topics today, starting with an odd statement by Dr. David Allen about Mother Theresa on Twitter. Then we looked at the Episcopalians in Glasgow having a Muslim woman chant a portion of the Qur’an that denies central Christian doctrine as part of their services. We then looked at how “faith leaders” blessed a Planned Parenthood

How the KJV Tripped up Mormon Leaders
James White, , Mormonism
Gotta give the ol’ KJV credit. It tripped up the leaders of the LDS Church, way back when. Of course, today, modern Mormons might not care too much about how their original leaders were so ignorant of the Bible that they could make truly amazing mistakes, but anyone who seriously thinks these men were prophets of God in any meaningfully
