Mainly covered the upcoming debates, how to properly encourage someone interested in pursuing apologetics, foundational issues, etc., and then talked a bit about Gavin Ortlund and his videos, and the recent discussion about the canon of Scripture, the Deuterocanonical books, etc. Not sure about when we will be able to do programs next week, to be honest, as I drive
Started off today with a few interesting and funny tweets, wished Tom Buck a happy birthday, lamented tomorrow evenings Presidential “debate,” discussed Francis’ detestation of the Latin Mass, and finished up looking at the comments of an open theist concerning God’s decree and his demand that God be as limited and creaturely as the rest of us.
In light of the US House of Representatives voting to ask God to make us like Sodom and Gomorrah, like Chorazin and Bethsaida, we talked today for an hour about God bringing judgment upon nations outside of Israel (looking at Amos 1:13) and how the culture of death is the common denominator of all the insane, self-destructive things now being

James White, February 24, 2025February 24, 2025, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Personal, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters Snuck a quick program in today before teaching at the seminary this evening, talking about developments with what seems like the soon passing of Pope Francis, etc. Then we briefly discussed recent conversations concerning Cameron Bertuzzi, a convert to Romanism, and his claim that the supposed appearances of Mary at Zeitoun, Egypt, decades ago provide better evidence for the Christian faith than the resurrection appearances of Jesus. Hopefully get to do another program from Jonesboro on Thursday before the two debates this weekend.

I’m in Lindale, Texas with the well known Troublemaker of the same area, Tom Buck, so we talked about…lots of stuff, from SBC stuff, G3, the future, you name it. Hopefully our discussions will be edifying to those facing many of the same challenges we are.
I did not feel well today, but I pressed on, because I really wanted to share this study of Jude 5, CBGM, the variant in the text, and the biblical tapestry of phraseology and teaching that consistently testifies to the deity of Christ. Please get a deep seat, take some notes, and enjoy!
Managed to pull off a solid internet connection from a slight wide spot in the road called Lordsburg, New Mexico (really sad little town…lots of abandoned buildings). We covered a wide variety of things, including announcing the upcoming debates, April 24th and 25th, in Lafayette, Louisiana, with Catholic Answers apologist Jimmy Akin (sola scriptura, and “How Does a Man Have
Drove for eight hours today and arrived safely in Conway, so I got set up and managed to sneak in a quick Dividing Line, discussing upcoming talks, lectures, and debates on this trip, and answering some questions asked on Twitter. Glanced over once and we had over 1,440 people viewing! And now…to sleep!

Was going to spend the whole time going through quotes from A Different Jesus? but forgot to sorta announce that we wouldn’t take calls, so, we took calls anyway. Made for a little bit of a roller-coaster, topic wise, but hey, you’ll survive. Good calls and my meanderings about Mormonism and the like, found here.
