On Emotionalism, the Accusation of Socinianism, Further Clarifications on Exegesis and Sola Scriptura
James White, , Church History, Exegesis, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism
We had to move the program around a bit today, and I ended up having to do it from home, so my apologies for needing to deal with “providential hindrances.” Started off extending our sincere condolences to Doug Wilson, his family and everyone associated with Christ Church in the passing of his dear father last evening, Jim Wilson. Here is

Ol’ Bob Ross Keeps On…Doing His Thing
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
For those of you who get Bob Ross’ e-mail updates, yes, I know he’s still on the warpath. I feel for him, but decided last year that he is beyond correction, and in light of his encouragement of Wilkin’s efforts, and his manifest ignorance of Wilkin’s views, and his continued comments about a debate he did not see or hear

Greg Stafford on “False Doctrine”
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
A few days ago I noted, very briefly (all of a single paragraph at the end of a longer blog entry), the continued campaign of Watchtower apologist Greg Stafford in reference to Reformed theology, and in particular, the sovereign decree of God and Yahweh’s exhaustive knowledge of future events. I doubt our Open Theist friends are overly appreciative of the

Debate Report from London, Open Phones, Twitter Questions
James White, , General Apologetics, Islam, Misc, Pastoral Theology, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Gave a quick debate report from last nights encounter with Adnan Rashid in Selhurst, South London, and then started covering questions provided over Twitter and yes, open phones! I was very pleased with how well the phones worked, in fact, so this means we will be able to focus more upon doing Dividing Lines even when I am traveling overseas

Dave Hunt on Romans 9: Tradition-Driven Eisegesis Once Again
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
The Berean Call put out their monthly newsletter a few days ago, and I could not help but noticing the following paragraph. If you are not intimately familiar with the argument of Romans 9, and especially its insistence that the choice of Jacob and the rejection of Esau was not in any way, shape, or form, based upon the actions

Response to “Prophecy Channel”
TurretinFan, , Reformed Apologetics
The video below is a response to Prophecy Channel’s (PC’s) response to Dr. James White. There three main sections to the video, and consequently three main sections to the response: 1. Does Dr. White think only Calvinists are Christians? No. Dr. White acknowledges that there are non-Calvinist Christians. On the other hand, Dr. White recognizes that not everyone who calls

Teachable Moment for Those Who Live in Lumpkins’ World
Dr. Alan Kurschner, , Reformed Apologetics
Any seasoned Calvinist will tell you that to try to interact biblically with an Arminian is a Herculean feat. And if you achieve that stage, it is an additional challenge to have them concentrate on a single coherent passage without them jumping all around the Bible. Peter Lumpkins is illustrative of that type of Arminian. Recently, I argued that human

What Scripture Does Not, Cannot, Dare Not, Never Will, Say (But Not What it DOES Say)
James White, , Reformed Apologetics
One way you can detect unfounded tradition masquerading as “biblical beliefs” is to note the prevalence of “this passage can’t be saying this” combined with little or no positive “the text clearly says this” followed by meaningful exegesis. When someone can only tell you what the Bible doesn’t say, but can’t tell you positively what it does, they have a
