Alpha and Omega Ministries is a Christian apologetics organization based in Phoenix, Arizona. James White, director, is a professor, having taught Greek, Systematic Theology, and various topics in the field of apologetics for numerous schools.
Robert Sungenis and evpi. tau,th The book, Jesus, Peter & the Keys, attempts to provide responses to some of the arguments that have been put forward against the unique, and sometimes very strained, exegetical claims of Rome. In particular, this book often cites Robert Sungenis, a Westminster Seminary graduate, as their primary source of Greek scholar. While we are unaware
Started out with a period of mourning for the demotion of Tim Staples from one of the “Church’s foremost Biblical scholars” to just “a top apologist.” We are still pondering whether we should send a dozen Tulips as a consolation prize. Then we looked at Hamza Yusuf repeating the “Nicea set the canon” myth, and then played a random clip
Once again my hope is that someone will be helped by these thoughts.
Started off with a story DA Carson told about CH Dodd and the meaning of propitiation, moved on to an LDS blog article, and then in the last half of the program, finished up the Steve Ray “verses I didn’t see as a Protestant on the Eucharist” material, including Jerusalem Jones’ “Bloop in and out of the Bubble” analogy. You
An unusual set of videos that I hope will be of encouragement to some. I went 90 seconds long, so…had to break it up into two parts. Hence the double posting.
Today on the Dividing Line I took the time to review and refute the accusations published nearly a decade ago in Interpretation by D.H. Williams relating to his very poor reading of my chapter in the Soli Deo Gloria book and his provision of a footnote in which he made some negative comments. This footnote had been recently posted by
“A debate is a conflict which clarifies a position. A dialogue is a conversation which compromises a position.” John E. Ashbrook, The New Neutralism II I don’t have the book (yet), but given what yours truly does regularly (and by the way, we will have a major debate announcement upcoming soon!), this pithy statement caught my attention. So many I
This is short notice, but you may wish to tune in Pastor Chuck McIlhenny on Iron Sharpens Iron today. McIlhenny’s experience as pastor of the First Orthodox Presbyterian Church in San Francisco (which is right on the road I take to GGBTS each time I’m up there) was told in the book, When the Wicked Seize a City. My how
A monument to how deep sound theology was not so long ago. The Complete Works of Thomas Manton being offered by Solid Ground. “The renowned Thomas Manton (1620-1677), whose writings have long been prized by thousands, was known first and foremost as a great preacher. In a day when good preaching is sorely lacking, we need the reprint of his
This morning I noted Erik Raymond’s blog entry on relics here (Hi Erik!). There are few things more repulsive to the life-long Protestant than relics, and nothing more creepy than entering an old style traditionalist Roman Catholic church filled with skeletons and bones and the like. The relic trade continues to this day, despite how often modern Roman Catholics try
I will be speaking June 7th in Duluth, Georgia, at the Aletheia Forum. Click here for details. The next morning I will be speaking at the Hickory Road Baptist Church in Canton, 2146 Hickory Road, Canton, GA 30115-4333. Hope to see some of my Southern friends in a few weeks!
Let me begin by noting that I am sure I will probably err in the future and double-post videos here. It is very hard to keep what is scheduled to appear in the future, and what has already appeared in the past, straight. So, I apologize beforehand should I post something more than once! As far as I can tell,
Yesterday four radical judicial revolutionaries decided to overthrow centuries of practice and law and create a monstrosity called “gay marriage.” No such thing exists. That is like a round square, or a light of darkness. Marriage is not defined by judges who believe themselves free to create new realities. Marriage is a divine institution. But yesterday, the far-reaching proclamation (it
Please note: the doctrine of the Trinity does not involve “shirk.” If Muslims would just understand the doctrine correctly (i.e., if they could break out of the errors forced upon them by the ignorance of Muhammad who simply did not understand the doctrine), they would realize that we are monotheists and we are not in any way “associating” separate “gods”
Since I was out of town all week, we are going to do a special DL Friday morning at the regular Tuesday time (11am PDT). Join me!
As I was uploading the last in this four-part series of replies to “Mujtahid2006,” I found his name on his page (sorry about that), and confirmed it by seeing Jay Smith make mention of him as well. So, I apologize for using his YouTube nick throughout this reply. I am hoping this dialogue can continue and focus upon key issues
I had removed Ross’ feed from my RSS reader last week. This evening while doing something else I opened up my Google homepage, and it has a blog search window in it that pulled up Ross’ most recent slander. Bob Ross has been corrected, many times, on his spreading falsehoods about others, and in this case, in his questioning my
Today on The Dividing Line I began by answering a question from a listener on why Reformed theology is important, and then I began examining some of the claims of YouTube’s “KingJamesVideoMan” regarding his denial of the Trinity and promotion of modalism. Here’s the program.
Last week I mentioned a video I had seen a few years ago of Muslims desecrating an American flag in a US city and mentioning a “loop hole” that allowed them to do this. The irony was, they admitted that if they did this almost anywhere else, the government would come after them. To many serious Muslims, the fact that
I truly wonder what many of my Muslim friends think when they see this kind of stuff. Another anti-Christian work of absurd fiction, brought to you by folks who do movies about Area 51, the Bermuda Triangle, and Bigfoot (I’m being perfectly serious), is about to show up on movie screens across the US. For those who call this a
Evidently I cut and paste the wrong embedding codes a few months back for the Khalid Yasin video, and ended up repeating myself. I guess I might have been trying to avoid posting the actual first video since people made fun of my bright shirt! But, here’s the actual first part of the Khalid Yasin series; the one that posted
