Started off with the Jack Del Rio story and the fact that we truly are living in the days of totalitarianism. Secular totalitarianism is the worst, as we will soon see. But then we moved to ask a question, “What is the Great Tradition?” A new movement has arisen in Reformed ranks, and especially amongst Reformed Baptists, touting the importance and necessity of “the Great Tradition.” But…what is it? Fact is, nobody really knows. And I document that by skipping over the “I will quote my favorite modern source” silliness and going directly to primary sources, in this case, the documents of the Second Council of Nicea (787). I invite my Great Tradition Baptists to respond from the same materials rather than just sub-tweeting pious platitudes. Enjoy!

Addressed the Master’s Seminary issue relating to their filing a DMCA against the man who did the work to demonstrate the problems with Peter Sammons’ use of sources in an online class. This is just a matter of integrity and honesty, really, and I hope TMS will do the right thing. Then we looked at the beating of that teacher by a huge black boy recently at a school and asked the unaskable, is there something demonic going on? We finished up looking at “Inseparable Operations” again and asking, what does this actually accomplish for Christ’s sheep?

A Little Francis, But Mainly Responding to Jared Longshore
This morning’s regular edition of The Dividing Line should, Lord willing, make its appearance tomorrow, same time. It is physically impossible for only one person to do the program and run the electronics that are located in a different location, so, we will do our best to continue with our Ehrman response, possibly throw in some Ahmed Deedat material, etc.,
