This morning Dr. Frank Turek of CrossExamined.org posted a short video clip from one of his many public speaking engagements. You have to give Frank credit, he goes out there and takes the questions. That is appreciated. But the inconsistencies in the answers are why we have often had to comment on what is being said. In this video he responds to an audience question (which itself contained errors of fact and thought) by stating what we might call the “standard” synergistic objections to Reformed theology. So we provided a rebuttal, along with a reiteration of the fact that we would be happy to “cross examine” Frank, and be cross examined by him, in formal, public debate. Many people who saw a tweet I posted suggesting such a debate said they would really like to see that happen. I am doubtful, but, you never know!

Interaction with Diaa Mohamed
James White, , The Dividing Line
As I wandered a bit in my commentary (and interaction with the chat channel) I decided not to delve into the Ehrman materials today, but instead finished Diaa Mohamed’s opening statement. Also announced that we will be doing a Radio Free Geneva this coming Thursday, so join us at our regular time!

Debate: Regeneration and Perseverance, Robert Wilkin, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, 4/8/2005
James White, , Debate, The Dividing Line
The Regeneration and Perserverance Debate(Lordship salvation) Dr. White debates Dr. Robert Wilkin of the Grace Evangelical Society on the subject of faith. The two parts of this debate are Regeneration and the Ordo Salutis, and the Perserverance of the Saints. To be honest, James was disappointed with this debate. The majority of the time, he had to correct mischaracterizations of

RV News, Then Hebrews 1:10-12 and Dale Tuggy
Rich Pierce, , Debate, General Apologetics, Jehovah's Witnesses, Personal, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized, Unitarianism
Went over what has been going on over the past few days about our RV—and that fact that we needed to make arrangements to obtain a different one, due to it being defective and needing to be rebuilt. Went through the whole story, mainly for our supporters, as we will need to raise some funds to make up the differences

James White, , The Dividing Line
Other than a few magical moments with my surprise co-host Clementine (stage name “Clemskidoodles”), this 90 minute program is a review and refutation of this horrifically biased, erroneous, and just plain anti-Christian cover article in the current issue of Newsweek magazine. If you encounter anyone spouting this stuff, please, please, share this program with them! Here is the YouTube link:

Ehrman/Wallace Debate
James White, , The Dividing Line
Seems lots of folks were off of their regular schedules today, as we didn’t get much in the way of audience participation, but I still covered a few items of interest, including the Pope’s recent truthful statements against the abomination of “gay marriage,” and then we returned to the long lost Ehrman/Wallace debate in the second half of the program.

Sorry About the DL!
James White, , The Dividing Line
As I told Rich, I had not given it a single thought since last Thursday. Too focused on the Apocrypha to do much else right now. So I apologize that we didn’t do the long-distance DL this morning. We are having transportation problems as it is, so it is next to impossible to schedule anything anyway. Don’t forget the debate
