Yesterday on the DL we continued our Radio Free Geneva examination of William Lane Craig’s recent teachings on the topic of salvation, and in particular, his presentation of a slightly altered Roman Catholic ordo salutis over against the Reformation.
Christian-Muslim Debate Who Is God? The Trinity and Tawhid Reverend Tony Costa and Imam Habeeb Ali Thursday, June 11, 2009 7:00 pm North American Muslim Foundation 4140 Finch Avenue Scarborough, Ontario, Canada
I apologize for being less than blogorific or video-rific, etc. I am trying to get a lot done, but it isn’t necessarily stuff that is easily “seen” very quickly. I made progress on a chapter in the Beckwith response today, however, and wanted to provide just a paragraph as an example. This is from a chapter where I am examining
There are so many worthless things that take up our days. Put some of them aside for just under an hour and listen, or watch. Don’t do so listening for imperfections, do so listening for words of life. You cannot help but be touched deeply by the words of a dying sister in the Lord. If you wish to listen
We did a Radio Free Geneva today, starting with a few minutes reviewing an example of really bad argumentation (from Monica Dunnington) and then moving on to the serious stuff, that being the comments of William Lane Craig on the topic of man’s freedom, Romans 9, Roman Catholicism, etc. Important documentation that “theology matters.” Update: Some have asked a bit
For all those who have wondered when we would again air an edition of “Radio Free Geneva,” well, today is your day! Tune in to hear who we will be responding to today!
Visited with the “studio audience” the first half hour (even talked a little NCAA Women’s Basketball!), then began taking great calls on the canon and the authority of Scripture.
I’ll admit, I’m dumbfounded. I have often said that Rome’s primary American apologists live in a land, far far away from reality. They simply do not care what their most serious critics provide in the way of rebuttal. Once they have produced an argument, they will repeat it, no matter how often it is refuted, shredded, and otherwise turned into
You can’t help but think about the constant drum-beat of Roman Catholic apologists in attacking sola scriptura as you consider the speech given by Barak Obama at Notre Dame. Why? It’s fairly obvious. We are told that Rome has this God-given unity found in “tradition,” and a living head who can interpret doctrine and safeguard the faith. Yet, the fact
Over the past few years I, and others, have posted various claims, assertions, arguments, and especially, melt-downs, by participants in the “Speak Your Mind” forums on Patrick Madrid’s Roman Catholic website. As the material was publicly accessible, it was a veritable gold mine of bad arguments, circularity, and, of course, with Art Sippo posting there, a treasure trove of wild-eyed
Years ago in a written debate on the claims of Roman Catholicism I pointed out the bankruptcy of the constantly repeated slogan that states that Rome is the church of the past 2,000 years. The fact that Newman had to create his development hypothesis proves that the claim is empty: the early centuries did not embrace, as part of their
Rich told me he received a phone call yesterday asking about how to ship items that would be purchased on the Ministry Resource List. First, once again, many thanks to those who help me in my studies in this way. It is tremendously encouraging. Secondly, ironically, I have messed up buying things for folks on their gift lists in the
The only weapon that can win the war against a constantly advancing and militaristic Islam is the Holy Spirit of God applying the gospel of Christ to the hearts of Muslims and bringing them into a true and full relationship with God through Jesus. A dying secularist West may have all every kind of technology at its disposal, but it
I noted today another fascinating post from Art Sippo, the Catholic lay apologist (and writer of odd pulp fiction stories). Algo had posted a few quotes that demonstrate, as all rational historians recognize, that dogmas like purgatory developed over time, and hence, are not apostolic in origin. Sippo’s response is, once again, classic: Ah yes, Algo. Spoken like someone who
Went about seven minutes long today just to get our callers in, mainly because I couldn’t go much faster in dealing with a particular allegation of Biblical contradiction. I played a portion of the audio of Bart Ehrman’s appearance on “Freethought Radio” with Dan Barker. Spent some time dealing with the “Jesus died on different days” accusation Ehrman uses all
I have a 2 hour interview that I really need to have accurately transcribed for use in a current book project. If someone with transcriptional skills would like to transcribe a 2 hour mp3, please let us know. We have received transcriptions from folks in the past, for which I am very grateful, but I never wish to presume upon
The greatest weapon against radical Islam is the gospel of peace. Sad, isn’t it, that the Taliban thinks the Pope is the “most important personality in the Christian world”? Kabul, 7 May (AKI) – The Taliban on Thursday threatened “harsh reprisals” if Pope Benedict XVI does not immediately intervene to stop Christians proselytising in Afghanistan. In a message posted
I just used the “universal” button on the Ministry Resource list to add an external laptop battery. I tested the Eee PC and got nearly 4 hours out of it without using the charger, running Skype and the broadband modem (and running Total Recorder so as to provide a backup audio recording). That’s pretty good, but, I would feel a
Dear Dr. White, It’s been a while since we’ve either spoken or exchanged e-mails. I hope this letter finds you in good health. The reason why I am contacting you is to let you know that my publisher is currently preparing for publication my completed manuscript refuting Reformed Theology. My finished work places special attention on the doctrinal errors found
OK, here is an example of what happens when older folks (ok, middle aged folks like me) work with technology for too long. First, we all have to use voice mail these days, right? Well, my son doesn’t…he just lets his mailbox fill up so no one can get hold of him. But other than that, the rest of us
I reported on the Barker debate, played my closing statement, and then discussed issues relating to the vast complexity of life and how naturalistic materialists struggle bravely to hold back the tide of evidence that threatens to overwhelm them.
I wanted to follow up on James Swan’s observations regarding the state of popular Roman Catholic apologetics. I was reminded of an incident from 1999 as I read the thread on the Catholic Answers web boards. I debated Hamza Abdul Malik that year after having debated Robert Sungenis. As the crowd came into the building, I noticed some ladies sitting
The mp3 recordings of the debate at the University of Illinois are now available here. It is our sincere hope that this encounter will be encouraging to the people of God, and will be used to His glory.Please keep the preparations for the next debate, which we are trying to set up for June, in prayer.
I wanted to take a few moments to write down some thoughts on the debate with Dan Barker at the University of Illinois on Thursday evening, April 30th, 2009. When I first began involvement in apologetics in my early 20s I had the opportunity of engaging many atheists on our local talk station, KFYI. Dan Barker was one of them.
Benjamin Douglass and others have put together a list of common Roman Catholic arguments that, well, shouldn’t be common at all. Now, posting something like this, given that it would decimate the arsenal of the most popular Roman Catholic apologists on the web and on radio today, can’t make Mr. Douglass and his associates the most popular Roman Catholics around,
Last evening we attempted to stream the audio of the debate live. Due to connection issues, the sound quality was very poor. I apologize for that. When I debated Bart Ehrman in January I fired up Skype after my opening presentation and called one brother in California so he could listen in. About six or seven other folks jumped on
Just a quick note to thank everyone who made tonight such a wonderful success. A group of “channel rats” pitched in to do a lot of work in getting the debate video taped, including ENielsen, Dale, Algo, and brigand. We also had DaveHewitt and Celticman and wonky in attendance, too (and SN was there….in command of it all). Thanks to
Greetings from the campus of the University of Illinois. I just had lunch with the folks from the Navigators. Most enjoyable time, though, I just don’t understand how kids in college keep getting younger and younger. I was talking about stuff back in the 80s and they were all staring at me like I was old or something. But a
Played brief snippets from two more Barker debates I listened to recently, then finished off his list of “Bible contradictions.” Took some relevant calls as well. Remember, no DL on Thursday; however, we will try to live webcast the audio of the debate that evening. Since the debate begins at 7pm, and I’m assuming that is CDT, then we would
