“The arrival of the lawless one will be by Satan’s working with all kinds of miracles and signs and false wonders, and with every kind of evil deception directed against those who are perishing, because they found no place in their hearts for the truth so as to be saved. Consequently God sends on them a deluding influence so that

Mobile DL: Big Brother Keeps at It, Lessons from Litton, More on the Divine Truth About the Trinity
James White, , Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Did another program from up here in Prescott Valley, Arizona, looking at some amazing actions of Big Brother as he seeks to establish his totalitarian regime. Then we looked at the amazing documentation coming out about the blatant plagiarization of sermon material by Ed Litton, the new President of the SBC, and finished up at the end with more exciting

The Intellectual Pit Bull of the Evangelical Church?
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
That’s the description given of Ergun Caner of Liberty University, one which he seems to proudly wear on his own website. Today I read where Dr. Caner said, “Calvinists are much more heinous than Muslims…I assume it is because they are predestined to be….” It just seems to me that if someone is going to promote themselves as fearless and

A Timeline on the J316C Discussion
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
When I invest time and energy in a particular topic, I truly try to do so for reasons as non-political as possible. And my engagement of TJ316C (The John 3:16 Conference) has been for the very same reasons that motivated me to write The Potter’s Freedom. As a result, I really have not been looking to see what else is

Radio Free Geneva: Responding to Justin Brierley’s Premier Christianity Article Against Reformed Theology
James White, , Exegesis, Radio Free Geneva, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line
Though I’m sure certain hyper-Calvinists on the web will have a fit, I responded to Justin Brierley’s article attempting to refute Reformed theology in the context of disputing with a brother, not an enemy. I hope Justin will hear my words in that context. You can find Justin’s article here. I did not finish my review, unfortunately, and will do

Radio Free Geneva: Showbread’s “Dear John Piper” and Leighton Flowers on 1 John 5:1
James White, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Pastoral Theology, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Decided we needed to do a Radio Free Geneva today, and it turned out as a jumbo edition at that! Started off with Showbread’s “Dear John Piper” song, going through the lyrics and identifying the sources that led to this vicious construction of a burning straw man. Then I played a song by Shane and Shane that I had only

More on Anti-Calvinism from Paul Owen (II)
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
I continue providing a response to the anti-Calvinistic interpretation of Jesus’ promises to His people in John provided by Paul Owen, a man who claims to be a Calvinist but whose writings and agenda is opposed, clearly, to the proclamation of God’s free and sovereign grace. We continue with Owen’s words: God actually makes promises to people, and gives benefits

Re-Inventing the Wheel
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
A very bright (and encouraging!) medical doctor pointed me to the fact that Steve Hays has already said everything I have said in reference to J.P. Holding’s manifold errors, exaggerations, and assorted mis-cues in his article on election. Hays’ response appeared in two parts, found here and here. I would still like to take the opportunity to document the exegetical
