Listened to Senator Ted Cruz roasting a leftist, radical female judge and took the time to consider the issues at a deeper level. Then I looked at a few videos I’ve marked for review in my Twitter bookmarks, including a PCUSA minister denying the deity of Christ and a Roman Catholic arguing for the necessity of an infallible canon to have an inerrant text. Just a tad over an hour today!

James White, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Mormonism, Oneness Pentecostalism, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line
Began a rainy DL today with an interaction with a Twitter user (@BlackRepublican) regarding the foundational issues of the faith (once again—and one of the calls from our brother Kofi raised the issue again later), and then moved on to a brief interaction with Dr. David Bernard of the UPCI on the Trinity and soteriology (Bernard is the leading theologian

Radio Free Geneva on an Early Year End Dividing Line Tomorrow!
James White, , The Dividing Line
A brother in Brisbane sent me a sermon from a Baptist Church that has decided to “take on Calvinism,” and given that it illustrates perfectly the kind of resistance biblical theology faces from man-made traditions, we will listen in tomorrow on a special Radio Free Geneva edition of the Dividing Line. If you would like to listen to the sermon

The Catholic Verses: Luke 1:28 (Part VI)
James White, , Roman Catholicism
As I noted in Part I, Dave Armstrong’s attempt to substantiate the sinlessness of Mary is one of the longest sections in his book. We have noted that he specifically claims to be offering sound exegesis and analysis of Luke 1:28, but so far, we have not found his comments to live up to the claims he makes for them.

Today on the DL
James White, , The Dividing Line
Continued the Sam Shamoun vs. Shabir Ally debate today, and even heard Shabir argue that Revelation 14 informs us that women will not enter into paradise! You have to hear it to believe it. “When Bad Jehovah’s Witness Arguments Get Picked Up by Muslim Apologists.” Sounds like a bad B movie, the stuff of Mystery Science Theater 3000. Anyway, here’s

James White, , Atheism, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line
Covered the vast wide countryside of theology and apologetics today, including a review of the Free Speech Apocalypse movie (and some non-spoiler comments about The Martian!), a brief listen to one of the candidates for the Kentucky Baptist Convention presidency, one of the audience questions from the recent atheist debate, and finally, after a bit more wandering about, nearly an

A Review and Refutation of Provisionist Confusion
James White, , Pauline Studies, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
I did a quick teaching DL from home today to respond to the following meme (and briefly to one other that I don’t want to display). I tried to use a little screen annotation app I grabbed to do a little “Flip Board without the Flip Board” exegesis in Ephesians 1 to once again expose the man-centeredness of Provisionism’s vain

Conclusion of Response to Trent Horn, A Little Rosaria Butterfield
James White, , Homosexuality, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line
Finished up our response to Trent Horn on the topic of theopneustos, which we began two programs ago. But, I have started reading Rosaria Butterfield’s new book, Five Lies of Our Anti-Christian Age, which is due to be released on September 12th, and I shared a few quotes and thoughts that are directly relevant to the debate in Manheim, PA,
