We have a guy at Apologia who posts hilarious out-of-context quotes from the sermon on our member’s page. I need someone like that to listen to every Dividing Line and come up with a brief, yet usable, title, because with programs like today, I just have no idea. We covered the Washington State law that would allow the state to mutilate your children, by force (seriously). We discussed a bit more about what is just wrong with the phrase “white evangelicals,” and I spent a fair amount of time considering some of the important aspects of the “Christian Nationalism” discussion.

Stone Choir Cult Attacks Plus More
James White, January 27, 2025January 27, 2025, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Ken Wilson, Misc, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Racialism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters Went a full 90 minutes today starting with Corey Mahler and the Stone Choir Cult’s attack on my last evening, followed up by Mahler’s amazing promotion of Marcion’s gnosticism. I used his false statements about the name Yahweh to go into church history and trace the damage that was done by the loss of the knowledge of Hebrew and how this impacted the development of sub- and anti-biblical traditions. We also looked at a claim by Leighton Flowers about church history (always entertaining), a sola scriptura meme, and a brief inquiry as to whether JD Hall’s elders know he is back to doing what destroyed him, his church, and his ministry, only two years ago.

Upcoming Trip, Then Story Time with Grampa Jimmy
James White, April 28, 2023April 28, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Eschatology, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity Talked a bit about the upcoming trip, new new rig and studio, and the fact that HOPEFULLY next Tuesday we will do a live DL from the rig in the new studio AND at the same time auction off a gorgeous Jeffrey Rice LSB rebind (I am told on Twitter it is a “LSB 2 Column in Steel Grey Badalassi Carlo” whatever all that means). Then we talked about enough cultural insanity to make it necessary to not post this to YouTube, and finally we moved to Story Time with Grampa Jimmy, this time reading the unpublished, unfinished preface to a never-written commentary on Chrysostom’s homilies by John Calvin. Important historical insights to be gained! Pray for safe travel and that we will be able to do the DL from the new studio while on the road (somewhere in Texas) next week!

Road Trip Radio Free Geneva!
Rich Pierce, February 15, 2022February 15, 2022, Church History, Debate, Molinism, Personal, Provisionism, Radio Free Geneva, Road Trip, The Dividing Line Our first road trip version of Radio Free Geneva! I guess we could have done it on the program yesterday, too, but I did not think of it till I was driving today. So I had forgotten to deal with an important part of Tim Stratton’s presentation yesterday, so I wanted to get to that, and there were some developments today we mentioned as well. Once we finished that material, I moved to looking at some comments from David Pallmann and Will Hess in their ostensible “review” of The Potter’s Freedom, focusing upon some more errors regarding the over-all context as well as Hess’ denial of Penal Substitutionary Atonement (I could not tell whether Pallmann likewise denies PSA). Went just over an hour today, enjoy!
