Spent most of the hour talking about the edits that went into the 2025 update of the ESV, though that is not the most exciting topic to be addressing! This will be the last “regular” DL for a while as I head out on the road next week, so grab the AO App so you can get notifications about our upcoming Road Trip DLs!

   After listening to Tony Campolo talking about John Calvin, and then watching Troy Brooks ramble on about how Sproul, Piper, Calvin, Luther, and I are all headed to hell, I decided it was time to break out the Radio Free Geneva theme. I played some parts of Troy Brooks’ rambling diatribes, then gave a summary of the content of the

Also covered some of the upcoming stops, and debates, on the next trip (which begins in about ten days).

What is a Mega Radio Free Geneva? It’s one that lasts for two hours! Yes indeed, three to five PM this afternoon. Why such a long RFG? Well, when you read a book endorsed by Paige Patterson, George Bryson, C. Gordon Olson, Tim LaHaye, Earl Radmacher, and Jerry Vines (there had been an endorsement earlier by that shining example of

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.

For nearly two hours Pastor Jeff Durbin and I discussed ReformCon, beer tasting at the Boulders, Christian News, Marcus Pittman, a Thursday night tattoo session, JD Hall, holiness, sanctification, Christian freedom, and the role Internet polemics plays in creating simple falsehoods and controversies over fictional events.  I had a few clips I did not get to, as it went longer

Wow, well, what do you do when you start the program and your microphone doesn’t work? Well, in the radio world, you panic, and play music, and run commercials, and stuff like that. When you are doing a webcast you go, “Woops, folks, hold on, let’s try this again.” And then you play around with your connections, discover that the

   Well, that sorta depends on your view of truth, it seems. The Catholic Answers thread, started by Colliric, containing the accusations of one “Guardian,” has been closed down. No interaction with my replies was posted, as far as I could see. Nothing new there, of course. I have invited Guardian to call and substantiate his many accusations. Most in the

Started off announcing tomorrow’s show with Jeff Durbin, and playing a few clips reminding folks that yes, in fact, the “meme” over the past few weeks has in fact been, “Hey, those Apologia guys held a beer and tattoo fund raiser, and that’s foolishness.”  Then I moved over to the David Wood response to Seth Dunn regarding Nabeel Qureshi.  I

Went mega-length today as we played portions from the debate just a few days ago in Houston featuring, on “team Calvin,” Dr. Sonny Hernandez and Dr. Theodore Zachariades, and on team, well, uh…Team Free Will, perhaps, anyway, Dr. Leighton Flowers and Dr. Johnathan Pritchett.  Had only heard about it because Pulpit and Pen, in wildly rejoicing in the food fight
