Our Real Audio server is MIA and we can’t get hold of the powers-that-be to track it down, so we were unable to have the program today. Our apologies. As I travel tomorrow, we can’t just move it back a day, either, so, it will be next Tuesday before we try to make another excursion into broadcast excell…err, do the webcast. Of course, if our intrepid webmaster dude is on vacation or something, we might not have anything Tuesday either! We shall see.

Bart Ehrman Stuff, then Valentinian Gnosticism
James White, , Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, General Apologetics, Provisionism, The Dividing Line
Talked a little about a new video from Ancient Paths TV about Bart Ehrman, playing a few clips and making application.

We will take a few calls tomorrow to start off the program,

Today on the Dividing Line we discussed the ever increasing attacks upon our freedoms—religious freedoms and freedoms of speech—and the growing threat of state-sponsored secularism.

Oneness Mini Debate/Further Response to Derek Frank
James White, , The Dividing Line
