Talked a bit about the current trip, but mainly focused upon comments made by Alex O’Connor on a webcast regarding the gospel of John and in particular comments he made about John 12:44 and John 1:1. Hope folks will be helped by the study!
Monday we snuck one last Dividing Line in, an episode of Radio Free Damascus, responding to the statements of Khalil Meek in his debate with Jay Smith. We will return to a fairly regular schedule for the DL next week. And don’t forget the WayBack Machine, streaming Dividing Lines from 1998 onward 24/7! You can listen on the Flash Player

Using clips from previous debates I sought to explain the presuppositions upon which he functions, and how our debate in August is going to be just a tad bit on the challenging side. Here’s the program.
