Slightly shorter program today as I speak this evening here in PA. Discussed the upcoming debate and relevant issues, played a clip from Jesse Duplantis, and a clip from Thabiti Anyabwile as well.
Did the program live on the road from Indianapolis this evening, looking at the amazing secular tyranny in California, then a discussion of the challenges we are all facing as believers in these changing and unique times, and finishing with a look at some Taylor Marshall tweets.
Wrapping up our home stand before I head out next week with a pretty high energy program running through topics brought up on social media. We looked at how Francis is going to update his 2015 encyclical on the environment soon and asked, “If he can’t see the scam of climate change, how can he have much insight at all?”
Ninety minutes in the big studio today using the big board to look at some important topics. Started off with a little KJV Only silliness, then a little TR-Only silliness, and then on to comments made by IRBC pastor Steve Meister on Josh Sommer’s program about biblicism being the “road to Rome.” Having corrected that idea, we moved into the
Was joined by Pastor Jason Wallace for about forty minutes to talk about the new video he has produced, The Failure of Eastern Orthodoxy. Then Pastor Tobias Riemenschneider joined us from Germany to talk about his new book, Resisting Tyranny. Then I took a while to look at the arrests of Christians outside a sexual perversion event in Watertown, Wisconsin.
Other than discussing some upcoming events (such as the debate in Pennsylvania), we took some time to listen to some voices from the past (Chrysostom, Jerome) and think about how things have changed. We also took some time to consider the definition of biblicism in the current controversy.
So Rich was literally just poking around on Twitter when he stumbled across the “live” set up recently, so today was our first day to live-cast on Twitter. That was what we wanted to do all along, but obviously things are developing at Twitter and so we had to use Facebook (which drove me nuts). But, for as long as
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
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
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.
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.
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
Talked about a lot of topics again, from Harari’s “AI can write a true Bible” to an atheist saying Augustine inserted the Trinity at the Council of Nicea to transgender insanity and finishing up with developments at the Southern Baptist Convention.
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
I ran everything myself today, so even I am interested in how it turned out! Covered a lot of current events driven topics, which, being June, included a lot of cultural stuff, the sufficiency of Scripture, legal cases, the SBC, that kind of stuff. Touched lightly on eschatology, law, etc. Just over an hour in length.
It is very sad that the the Church does not speak with a unified voice in the modern world. Yet it remains our duty to think through, as Christians, the key issues we are facing in this world gone insane with its destructive rebellion. Today we looked at the comparison of a progressivist, “liberal” view on homosexuality with the comments
Started off with some thoughts on Ted Cruz’s tweet about Uganda and Charlie Kirk’s comments about conservatism. What are we supposed to be conserving if such basic, foundational truths as family and marriage are negotiable? Then we looked at an article Catholic Answers published last year in response to the “White Question” and then finished up talking about debates (as
I cannot tell you how excited I am! I had always hoped Starlink would be a way for us to do what we need to do as far as Internet access while traveling, but we had real latency problems with it. Well, we decided to just try today and see what happened…and it not only worked perfectly for an hour
Halfway through my May trip, currently in Memphis, headed up toward Nashville before doubling back to Pryor, Oklahoma. Gave a bit of a report on my time at GBTS in Conway, then got into Apologia Radio’s response to G3, then moved on to consider how Daniel 7 relates to other key passages, and finished up reviewing Albert Mohler’s article on
After a brief review of a further comment by Stephen Wolfe (that I missed on the last show), we went back to Ephesians 1 after listening to a monologue by Leighton Flowers seeking to establish synergism by…assuming it! Brought Accordance in once again and dove into the text. Had one little interruption (the kind lady who runs the RV park,
Talked a bit about the upcoming trip, new new rig and studio, and the fact that HOPEFULLY next Tuesday we will do a live DL from the rig in the new studio AND at the same time auction off a gorgeous Jeffrey Rice LSB rebind (I am told on Twitter it is a “LSB 2 Column in Steel Grey Badalassi
We have a guy at Apologia who posts hilarious out-of-context quotes from the sermon on our member’s page. I need someone like that to listen to every Dividing Line and come up with a brief, yet usable, title, because with programs like today, I just have no idea. We covered the Washington State law that would allow the state to
Tackled the ever so easy, light issues of “White evangelicals,” Christian Nationalism, sacralism, and the recent dust-ups that had Reformed men posting clown-shoe memes about other Reformed men (all causing the angels in heaven to weep, me thinks). Had to do some eschatology and a lot more, but the fact is, it is indeed Christ or chaos, we must witness
Tale of two programs today as for the first half hour we considered the daily onslaught of secularism’s acidic destruction of Western society and life itself, and then switched gears to consider the newest edition of Credo Magazine and its full-throated promotion of, and defense of, “Reformed Scholasticism.”
As normal, it is Tom Buck’s fault. Everything is Tom’s fault these days, so, we might as well join in the fun. Seriously, I mentioned him retweeting the video of Riley Gaines being attacked by trans-madness thugs and that was just part of a half hour monologue on creation norms, the culture of death, and the madness of a society
So much of today’s discussion in our society is focused directly on foundational Christian truths, and yet most in the church are silent, or confused. We discuss more developments in the collapse of our society’s cohesion regarding sex, marriage, and simple human existence, and look at two videos, one including Jim Wallace, the other the “Amen Church” in Dallas.
Took a few minutes to look at the new Obscurity of Scripture book and its two references to me, which led to a discussion of Jason Stellman, and then on to the document Indulgentiarum Doctrina. Finished up the program with a warning about legislation being introduced in California, Washington, and Minnesota, giving the State the power to take away your
Covered a wide variety of things yet again on the program today, so a little something for everyone. Started off with the new Roman Catholic apologetics book against Scripture titled, “The Obscurity of Scripture,” and talked a bit about the obscurity not of Scripture, but of Rome itself. We also spent some time reading through Schaff’s discussion of Pope Honorius.
Had some enjoyable banter in response to Jeff Durbin’s live Facebook video from yesterday, and then we moved into considering some of the comments made by Trent Horn after his debate with Gavin Ortlund on sola scriptura. Some very interesting and important directions are being mapped out that are relevant for everyone interested not only in Roman Catholic apologetics, but
I am on the road, only about ninety minutes from home, doing a quick, brief shake-down run with the new fifth wheel. Have to test all the systems out to make sure we are ready to head to Utah in a few weeks for the debate at the University of Utah! We started out reviewing some of the key issues
Spent the first portion of the program discussing what the “drag queen” phenomenon tells us about our culture today before shifting to a completely different topic based upon the debate on sola scriptura between Gavin Ortlund and Trent Horn.
