Today on a Jumbo DL: Response to an Open Letter on the Profanation of Marriage and a Call to Tyler McNabb to Repent and Return to the Gospel
07/31/2012 - James White
A fast moving jumbo DL today with basically two portions. In the first, I responded to this open letter on the subject of the profanation of marriage. Then we talked about this example of anti-Christian activism, and this amazing statement from the Mayor of DC. Then we moved over to a response to Tyler McNabb's apostasy as announced on his blog here. I made note of a blog article by Jon Speed relating to Tyler's apostasy here. I examined Tyler's argumentation, and called him to repentance. We finished up with an exhortation to keep one's eyes upon Christ and His gospel, and to not be discouraged when people go out from us (1 John 2:19). Here's the program.12:42:45 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Yesterday on a Jumbo Edition of the Dividing Line
07/27/2012 - James White
Started off with more reporting on the spiraling insanity and depravity of Western culture expressing itself in open hatred of Christian morality and ethics, especially in the abuse of the term "discrimination." Then we started to take calls, and, well, though I wanted to get back to the Abdullah Kunde response, the calls kept coming and we filled up the rest of the time with them. Good calls on a wide variety of topics. Here's the program.And don't forget the WayBack Machine, streaming Dividing Lines from 1998 onward 24/7! You can listen on the Flash Player found here.

Today on a Jumbo Edition of the Dividing Line
07/24/2012 - James White
Started off discussing the continued moral schizophrenia of Western Culture and the continuing progression of NewSpeak, the evisceration of the language (diversity and inclusive becoming their own antonyms), and then got a few more minutes of Harry Knox's comments covered as well. Then we shifted gears after a break and I responded to Abdullah Kunde's article here. Here's the program.16:07:30 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Today on a Jumbo Dividing Line: Radio Free Geneva and Radio Free Damascus!
07/19/2012 - James White
OK, I was going to divide the program up evenly, with 45 minutes on each topic, but...I lost track of time and ended up going one hour on my review of Pastor Rogers' anti-Calvinism book, and only thirty minutes finishing up listening to the cross-ex with Abdullah Kunde on Surah 5:44ff. Next week I intend to get back to the Harry Knox materials, too. My apologies for having left that off for a while, but there is just so little time and so much to cover! Anyway, here's the program.20:29:35 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Today on a Joint Mega DL: Radio Free Geneva and Radio Free Damascus
07/17/2012 - James White
Went for two full hours today, starting off with Pastor Rogers' new book, Reflections of a Disenchanted Calvinist as our subject in an hour long edition of Radio Free Geneva. Then we took a break and came back with an hour long edition of Radio Free Damascus, first offering some comments on Paul Bilal Williams and his comments in last week's debate in the UK, and then returning to Abdullah Kunde's comments on Surah 5 and then on the "I am" passages in John. May need to wash, rinse, and repeat for Thursday, as there is much to cover! Here's the program.And don't forget the WayBack Machine, streaming Dividing Lines from 1998 onward 24/7!

Last Friday on the DL from Edwards, Colorado
07/16/2012 - James White
Sorry I did not get this blogged (and nobody else thought to do it either!), but last Friday we did a special DL from Edwards, Colorado, replete with studio audience! Talked a bit at the start about cultural issues again, but then got back into Sam Zaatari's comments in his recent debate with David Wood. Here's the program.I am getting backlogged with things to get to on the Islamic side, as I am listening to recent debates and there is so much to comment on, and so many errors to correct coming from the leading Islamic apologists! Their love affair with the liberal left is never ending, and hence the contradictions to their own religious beliefs just keep piling up! Add to that my desire to respond to some key elements of a recent Southern Baptist attack on Reformed theology, and I think we may have to schedule some Mega DLs this week just to make a dent!

Today on a Skype Driven DL from Edwards, Colorado
07/11/2012 - James White
Started off shaking my head about the amazing thuggery of the radical leftists in our culture who can get away with attacking Brad Pitt's mother for daring to have an opinion other than their own. Then we moved into a brief discussion of the seemingly genetic inconsistency of the leading Islamic apologists today and their fascination with liberal scholarship--at least, when it comes to Christianity, not when it comes to their own sacred text. Then I moved on to just begin looking at Sami Zaatari's comments in a recent debate with David Wood, which I will continue, possibly on Friday, if we can make another remote DL work from another location. Here's the program.And don't forget the WayBack Machine, streaming Dividing Lines from 1998 onward 24/7! You can listen on the Flash Player found here.

Scripture Reliability Lectures Referenced on the Dividing Line
07/11/2012 - Tur8infan
A few seconds ago, on the Dividing Line, Dr. White referred to a set of lectures on the reliability of Scripture. As Dr. White originally wrote, back in August, 2011:This morning I listened, for the 2nd time, to a 3 1/2 hour seminar recorded in Scotland, I believe, in Edinburgh. The presenters (the audio file did a horrible job and explaining who was who) were Peter J. Williams, Dirk Jongkind, and Simon Gathercole. I just found a link, thankfully, here. I would highly recommend this series for everyone. The presentations are lively, well done, and very understandable. I have benefited from them greatly. In particular, Peter J. Williams' presentation was very useful. Here is a video of a similar presentation Dr. Williams gave. I likewise truly enjoyed Dirk Jongkind's dismantling of a particularly troubling section of Ehrman's work. I would love to hear Bart's response in a one-on-one discussion.Also mentioned on the Dividing Line was this alternate link to the lectures.

Michael Brown and The Real Kosher Jesus on Today's Dividing Line
07/05/2012 - James White
I was joined by my good friend Michael Brown on today's edition of The Dividing Line as we discussed his new book, The Real Kosher Jesus. Of course we wandered off topic a few times, and took some good calls at the end as well, but mainly we focused on the book, and especially the portion dealing with the Jewish views of Isaac and the events in Genesis 22.

Today on the Dividing Line: California Continues Cultural Collapse, More on Harry Knox, and a Good Call on Federalism
07/03/2012 - James White
Pressed on with some discussion of the homosexual agenda from current news, then got a little farther in our Harry Knox review. Then took a call at the end of the hour on the subject of our federal headship in Adam and in Christ, which took us about ten minutes long. Here's the program.And don't forget the WayBack Machine, streaming Dividing Lines from 1998 onward 24/7! You can listen on the Flash Player found here.
