Caught a few of the amazing stories coming out about how the left has used the US treasury as their own private slush fund, then moved on to a couple of tweets I forgot to cover Tuesday, one from Stephen Wolfe about a biblical theology of climate change, the other from Eric Conn about my desperation and irrelevance. Also covered some of the upcoming stops, and debates, on the next trip (which begins in about ten days).

I wanted to give a special thanks for Eddie and Lucy McKee, both members of PRBC.

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!

In honor of Article Two…
Mike Porter, , Christian Worldview
In honor of Article Two of the “traditional” Southern Baptist view of salvation, I would like to provide a citation from the Abstract of Systematic Theology by James P. Boyce, published originally in 1887. Boyce has the distinction of being the founder and first president of Southern Baptist Theological Seminary and President of the Southern Baptist Convention (1872-79,1888): II. FACTS

Same Sex Controversy part 2 of 3: Refuting 8 Revisionist Theories about Romans 1
James White, , Homosexuality, The Dividing Line
As societal rebellion against God increases, all truths of Scripture become targets, include what God’s law says against sins like homosexuality, about which there are currently a flood of new books.

Of Debates and the Silent Treatment
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
I must admit. My job is fascinating. Never dull. Well, almost never dull. This morning while getting a 30 mile ride in at an average speed of 15 mph (yeah, I know—but, I also climbed 2520 feet, which explains the average speed) I was listening to Shabir Ally throwing everything but the kitchen sink at the New Testament, writing mental

Open Borders Means Anarchy and Lawlessness, Then Open Phones on Deep Theological Topics
James White, , Christian Worldview, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, King James Onlyism, Mormonism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
While we were getting folks in line for open phones I commented for about ten minutes on the simple reality that “open borders” equals anarchy and the end of law, a concept that should not be attractive to any Christian whatsoever. Then we went to the phones to discuss a bunch of deep Trinitarian issues, as well as Eastern Orthodoxy,

Catching Up With Technology
James White, , Misc, Personal, Resources, Technology
We all know most things we buy in the tech world are planned to become obsolete in a relatively short period of time. It’s a built-in aspect of the market, it seems, but it is also a function of the fact that thankfully, at least in many areas, technology continues to advance and progress. This is a very small ministry,
