A little bit of everything for folks today, from reviewing a thread promoting priestly confession to reading through a description of purgatory to listening to Dr. Riddle promoting TR Onlyism.
Talked a bit about how modern tech is allowing us to “read” ancient scrolls that have been fossilized over time, then looked at some insights, and corrections, from our friend TurretinFan regarding the TR, the book of Revelation, etc. Then transitioned into more recent developments into the influx of Nazi apologists into “Reformed” churches, and the Reformed men who are,
So while I was gone Rich installed a new, bigger board in the big studio, so we had to try it out. Started with a discussion of the incredible amount of Nazi propaganda online these days, masquerading as Christian belief in supposedly Reformed churches. Lots of Confederates, Presbyterians, and 1689ers in the movement. Looked at a few posts and discussed
Covered a wide range today, from insanity in Germany, more and more studies showing the danger of the Covid jabs, the Biden Regime’s war on Christians, a few interesting graphics I’ve run across, to finally in the last half of the program, a brief video from Barth Ehrman showing his theological shallowness and the reasons thereof. Also mentioned once again
Went more than 90 minutes today, mainly looking at first at the amazing corruption of the justice system in America and how it flows from the rejection of our Christian heritage and the embracing of secularism. Then we played a 60 second video from an Eastern Orthodox priest denying penal, substitutionary atonement. Then we finished up our response to Dan
Worked through a thirteen tweet discussion about creeds and confessions and Biblical sufficiency from Dr. Brad Klassen, posted on 5/30, then got back to Dan McClellan’s comments about the manuscripts of the New Testament.
Had a bunch of other stuff I didn’t get to, but did manage to look at an excellent example of how KJVOism destroys real confidence in the Bible by looking at an example provided by Pastor Jonathan Burris (here) regarding the abuse of Deuteronomy 16:11 by one such KJVO advocate. Then we moved over to this video from Dan McClellan,
Tale of two programs today, sort of. First 35 minutes or so were on Jeffery Riddle claiming they will be changing the NT in 200 places in the upcoming (24/25) NA29th edition, and what that is all about. Discussed ECM/CBGM, etc. For those interested in textual issues, you will enjoy that portion. Then we switched over to the “Christian Nationalism”
Dale Tuggy responded to yesterday’s DL with some brief comments, and complained that I had not responded to his arguments in his article, so in this short program I provide that response, along with some other relevant comments.
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!
Back in the regular studio today. Started off with a personal response to Andy Stanley on his apologizing for Christians seeking to apply “Christian rules” to non-Christians, and then looked a bit at Reuben Swanson’s books on the text of the NT (in reference to Thomas Ross’ use thereof), finishing with a read-through of Brett Mahlen’s chapter on why he
Started off with a few comments regarding some of the response to Tuesday’s program regarding Thomism, including a thread by Danny Slavich. Then we listened to key elements of a webcast promoting TR Onlyism from Greenville Presbyterian Seminary and, yes, we made sure to play the part where at the beginning they indicated that the Seminary does not take a
Well, I did say it would be an experiment, and, well, it was a failed experiment. I thought it would be cool to let folks get in touch via Zoom and ask about a textual variant they particular are interested in. I get folks contacting me privately about things like that all the time. So, we fired stuff up, opened
Well, let me tell you, Rich is one happy camper. He got the bright idea today, really only a few hours before we started, to use Zoom to allow folks to call in to the program today. And…it worked. So I started off with about 20 minutes or so in response to a King James Only advocate giving a completely
OK, we covered the waterfront again today! Let’s see, started off with a response to some immature bullying on Twitter, and then moved on to this important and dangerous study regarding vaccines and the spike protein and the long-term degradation of the health and immunity that can result from that spoke protein. Then we moved into a completely different area,
Since we are doing a major length Radio Free Geneva tomorrow, I needed to “clear the table” of the topics that have been piling up in my topics list. So we really covered the gamut, starting off with my thanks for having shared a great time with Skillet as they visited Phoenix last Friday. WE discussed the veneration of vaccines,
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.
The ECM volumes of Mark arrived ten minutes before the program started, so that sort of distracted me, so I spent some time talking textual issues, CBGM, etc., before moving to the Mormons and their fear of Covid. Talked a bit about the overwhelming flood of negative information and how we need to protect our joy from the corrosive influence
Considered the implications of the rapid fall of Afghanistan back into the control of the Taliban at the start of the program, then gave a report from my time in Moscow at the Grace Agenda Conference, NSA Commencement, and preaching at Christ Church. Then looked a bit at the release of Mark in the ECM and the release of the
Talked a little about the trip so far (including my ascent of Mt. Evans this morning), then noted the continued destruction of the Constitution in the United States by the current Regime, and then moved to an in-depth discussion of Gregory of Nyssa’s concluding sentences in his brief epistle, “On Not Three Gods,” once again allowing us to address the
Spent some time talking about how Australia has fallen into the pit of totalitarianism, then did an unplanned discussion of the Legacy Standard Bible’s reading at Jude 5 and the upcoming ECM volumes (and CBGM data) for Mark that will be available in about three weeks. Moved from there to a discussion of the “debate” of some kind between Michael
Read the Great Barrington Declaration and talked a little bit about my hopes that common sense will finally overthrow the tyranny that has entrapped most of the globe, and then completely changed directions and launched into a discussion of the wealth and value of the Greek manuscript tradition in light of the hyper skepticism expressed by Jeffrey Riddle during our
This is what I was talking about yesterday on the DL but wasn’t sure of the details or if a graphic had been made, etc. Anyway, this Friday Dr. Stephen Boyce and I will look at some of the key texts in the TR that are clearly not the original readings of the authors of the New Testament. Both of
Two major parts to the program today. First about 45 minutes I dealt with the explosion of another Twitter Mob today, stoked by people like Lex_Luther and Paul Flynn, who misrepresented an exchange I had about the role of politics and the reality of mortality in the panic surrounding Covid-19. They were (and are) calling for my burning, or at
Talked a bit about the announcement from Master’s that they are going to be putting out (and soon) the Legacy Standard Bible, an update/revision of the (I assume) 1995 NASB. Some thoughts on some of the unique elements of the translation. Then we talked a bit about what the “gift” is in Ephesians 2:8-9, and then took calls on a
Started off with the D. Wade debacle and the influence of the world’s insanity on “transgenderism.” Then we started a movement to have Francis renamed “Francis the Marxist” (it has a ring do it, I think). Mentioned the ecumenical “Mass” being held in St. Pierre, Calvin’s old haunts, and then got to the real topic of the day. We played
Talked a bit about our time at G3, then up in NY at New Hyde Park Baptist Church, talked a little about the New World Translation of Jehovah’s Witnesses, and then started on calls, with discussions of 2 Cor. 5:21 as well as the eternal generation of the Son taking up most of the time.
Took just a few minutes at the start to talk about a recent court case in which a judge overturned a Trump administration protection of the freedom of conscience amongst medical professionals and institutions and in so doing used yet another NewSpeak term, “Gender Care,” a euphemism for “bodily mutilation.” Then I went over Ephesians 3:9 and the blatant error
As was needed I responded to the slanderous misuse of a video clip by Eric Mason, author of Woke Church, for the first hour or so today, including the playing of the entire context from the July 26, 2016 Dividing Line from which he took his clip. A wide ranging discussion about the woke church, critical theory, identity politics, and

Since I had travel problems yesterday I decided to sneak one more program in before I (Lord willing) fly out this afternoon. Talked a little about the textual variant at 1 Peter 3:15 and then moved on to the controversy that has arisen regarding the assertion that one must see David as a “rapist” regarding Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11-12, Psalm
