Hugh Nibley Dies at Age 94
James White, , Mormonism
If you do not know the name Hugh Nibley, you are not familiar with Mormonism and Mormon apologetics. He was the father of the modern movement that is today F.A.R.M.S., the Foundation for Ancient Research and Mormon Studies, the chief arm of LDS apologetics out of BYU. Oh, he wasn’t the only source of LDS apologetics: that movement really predated

Evangelical Apostasy (Part 2)
James White, , Mormonism
The spin only moves faster as the article continues: Besides, Mormon beliefs are not as un-evangelical as most evangelicals think.

Let’s just discuss things, see if we can

Story Time with Uncle Jimmy
James White, , Church History, General Apologetics, Mormonism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line
Started off with reading through the entire Epistle to Diognetus (~135 AD), then going back and making direct commentary on the text as it relates to the unique theory promoted by Dr. Ken Wilson and promoted by Dr. Leighton Flowers. We dove pretty deep into the text and found that the author of the epistle had a very strongly apostolic

Why Write Potter’s Freedom? & more of Why Witness to Mormons?
James White, , Mormonism, The Dividing Line
Since Normal Geisler has a good reputation, James White responds to those that would question why the endorsements for the upcoming book Potter’s Freedom would need to be worded so strongly on the issue of the Doctrines of Grace. Two callers try to understand Geisler’s redefinition of terms. Also, the need to witness to Mormonism due to their hyper-polytheism:the centrality
