James White, July 17, 2023July 17, 2023, Debate, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Unitarianism Started off today’s program talking about upcoming debates. Unfortunately, during the program itself, Chris Arnzen got word that Dr. Brownson will not be pursuing the debate on the 16th of September. However, we have another opponent lined up and will be able to give you information on that in a few days.Spent a while responding to portions of a Trent Horn video on θεόπνευστος and elements of the common Catholic Answers approach to denying sola scriptura. Then we moved to a number of tweets by Unitarians, finishing up looking at John’s use of ἐγώ εἰμι. Right at ninety minutes today! Enjoy!

James White, July 13, 2023July 13, 2023, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Debate, Exegesis, Iglesia Ni Christo, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity, Unitarianism Managed a solid live stream today, thankfully! Started off with an amazing example of “no, we haven’t hit rock bottom quite yet, but man we are digging hard” as far as the evil of man is concerned. Then we looked at Stephen Wolfe’s comments in response to Mark Dever on paedobaptism and a regenerate church membership. Finished up looking at the rhetoric of one Anthony Bernabei, a wild-eyed unitarian whose immaturity precludes him from serious consideration, but yet he provided a useful example of unitarian deception that allowed us to dig deeply into John 17 and 1 Corinthians 8. 75 minutes today!

James White, July 11, 2023July 11, 2023, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Transinsanity The first 35 minutes or so of today’s program focused on the Miss Universe results in the Netherlands, where a highly unattractive dude beat out some absolutely stunning women, all in the service to the dismantling of the West. Then we looked at pure, unhidden, unapologetic propaganda from an ABC affiliate in Louisville, Kentucky. Then we switched over to an analysis of 1 Peter 3:14-15 and the citation of Isaiah 8:12-13 therein, considering issues related to “inter-textuality” and the identification of Jesus as Yahweh incarnate.Pravda in Louisville; 1 Peter 3:15 and IsaiahThe first 35 minutes or so of today’s program focused on the Miss Universe results in the Netherlands, where a highly unattractive dude beat out some absolutely stunning women, all in the service to the dismantling of the West.

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!

James White, July 4, 2023July 4, 2023, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism, Transinsanity, Unitarianism Three major portions of today’s almost two hour program: first, reflections on the celebration of July 4th immediately after the Month of Prideful Rebellion. Then, we review key statements made by Matthew Barrett, Todd Pruitt, and Carl Trueman on the last episode of the Mortification of Spin (where, I must say, spin was most definitely not mortified!). Finally, we worked through Dale Tuggy’s sophistic argument against the deity of Christ, exposing its many less-than-subtle category errors, insertion of unproven assumptions, etc., and then followed that up with a quick run-through of the identification of Jesus as YHWH in John 12:41, and a particular unitarian attempt to get around that problem for their false theology. Around 1:55 in length today!

James White, June 27, 2023June 27, 2023, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Unitarianism Had to record the program today due to the location I am at in Santa Fe (possibly due to weather issues as well, not completely sure). Talked about the Australian legislation being proposed to give the state pretty much full control over speech and how we have taken our eyes off the ball as the totalitarians continue their global march. Then we switched over to a discussion that took place last year between William Lane Craig and unitarian Dale Tuggy. We will be doing a deep dive on Tuggy’s claims and positions over the next number of weeks and months. You might want to familiarize yourself with his views! You might also want to see Michael Brown’s debate with Tuggy here, and Chris Date’s interaction here.

James White, June 22, 2023June 22, 2023, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity Started off with stories about California and Michigan pressing the woke gender ideology that is a plague upon us all. Then, finally, as promised almost two weeks ago, I got to Leighton Flowers and his “Calvinists cannot answer Colossians 2:12” argument and discovered that in fact it seems it is the Provisionists who have to struggle with that particular text. Next week we are back on the road once again, so prayers for traveling mercies and physical strength and health are most desired and appreciated!

Went in the big studio today to talk about Mormonism and the challenges we face today in seeking to witness of the truth to members of the LDS Church. Did a good bit of reminiscing along the path, since the first books I read and studied from the LDS Church were purchased 41 years ago now. Had them in studio as well!

James White, June 15, 2023June 15, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church History, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Transinsanity Our main discussion today was based upon Pope Francis’ kind letter to Fr. Martin and the LGBTQ folks meeting tomorrow at Fordham University. What does this letter mean, and where is Rome really going today? The alleged “certainty” that flows from the claim of Papal authority is a two-edged sword that really ends up showing us that Rome’s “constancy” is a myth. It cannot be maintained. Spent a good bit of time talking about his death penalty stance as well as an illustration. Just over an hour. [Please note: I got so involved with the capital punishment discussion I completely forgot that we needed to get to Leighton Flowers and Colossians 2:12. Next time!]

James White, June 8, 2023June 8, 2023, Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity Was running solo again today but managed to dive into a number of topics as well as get into the original language texts on topics such as Paul’s use of Psalm 2, 8, 110, and the nature of Christ’s kingdom and reign. We also talked a bit about Derek Webb’s deep dive into spiritual darkness, and finished up looking at a question Leighton Flowers asked two years ago about Christ’s sheep.
