Started off following up on the Bart Ehrman/Newsweek article (I had been on the Janet Mefferd Show this afternoon on the same topic), responded to some claims from Sami Zaatari from a recent debate with David Wood, and took a couple of calls, one on sanctification and one on Hebrews 6 and the perfection of Christ as Savior.

Went over some developments in the Orlando situation and once again had to address the insanity of asserting that there is only one monolithic Islam and that everything done in the world by anyone who yells “Allahu Akbar!” is to be held to the account of every single Muslim on the planet. Then we noted the melt-down of Steve Hays
We took a number of great calls yesterday, and I spent most of my time focusing on George Bryson’s continued attempts to get around the exegetical force of John 6:37-45. Bryson has posted a number of claims on web forums and comment sections regarding this issue, and I took the time to start working through one such lengthy presentation. By
We had some server problems that got us going a bit late, but we pressed on anyway with a discussion of Roman Catholic priests and a review of some comments on the Eucharist. Here’s the slightly shorted (53 minute) program.

I played a portion of the audio of Bart Ehrman’s appearance on “Freethought Radio” with Dan Barker. Spent some time dealing with the “Jesus died on different days” accusation Ehrman uses all
By cell phone, the crew passing out tracts share what it is like now that the new building is able to seat 21,000 people. Dr. White also shares his recent experience in an informal debate with a Roman Catholic that claimed the Protestant Reformation was successful and over, and that one could pray to Saint Martin Luther.
Went over why I responded so negatively to the idea of churches accepting federal funding from the recent CARES funny-money “stimulus” at the start of the program. Talked a little about giving my grandkids a “sun show” today using my Meade solar telescope, then moved back into fundamentals of scholarly examination of historical materials, this time looking at a section
Had a wonderful time with Tom Ascol on the DL today, taking calls and discussing, at first, the Caner situation, but moving beyond that fairly quickly to broader issues of the gospel and the like. Good calls, a hopefully very useful program.
