Mormonism’s Capitulation, Open Phones with Great Calls

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Mormonism, The Dividing Line

We started off with the Senate’s consideration of the evil “Respect for Marriage Act,” which, of course, is the Disrespect for Marriage Act, and how the LDS leadership in Salt Lake City capitulated on basic Christian belief on the matter by favoring the passage of the bill. Then we took great calls on what it is to be Reformed, the

An Unplanned, Early Morning Dividing Line

, , Christian Worldview, Post-Evangelicalism, Sweater Vest Dialogues, The Dividing Line

We messed up planning the timing on recording a new Sweater Vest Dialogue with Doug Wilson, so, instead of pushing the day back an hour, we jumped on it and snuck in a quick Dividing Line before recording the SVD (which will be on the topic of Christian Nationalism). Rambled a good bit looking at the “election” in Maricopa County

Post Election Thoughts (Rebels Hate God), Van Til and the Use of Evidence (Matt Walsh)

, , Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Two distinct portions to the program today, the first thoughts after the mid-term elections in the United States (we are a broken and rebellious nation), the second about the use of evidence and presuppositional apologetics somewhat connected to Matt Walsh’s appearance with Joe Rogan. I made mention of an online seminar coming up this weekend put on by Eli Ayala

Australian Birth Crash, Gospel Names, Exegesis and Theology

, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

Started off with a quick look at the simple crash in Australian live births in December of 2021–hmm, what could explain that I wonder? Then we talked about what seems like a really silly objection to the faith and how to turn it into a door-opening gospel presentation. Then I finished looking at the second in a series of articles

Dr. Turek on Calvinism Taking the “Easy” Way, Pope Francis, and Others You’d Never Expect, Say “Go to Thomas!”

, , Church History, Open Theism, Personal, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Responded to a brief clip of Dr. Frank Turek talking with Leighton Flowers about Calvinists and evangelism, and then read an article on Pope Francis telling everyone to “go to Thomas.” This led to a lengthy discussion of further developments in the Thomistic Downgrade amongst the Reformed. An hour and 15 minutes.

Aquinas as a Commentator, Doing “Theological Exegesis” on Matthew 24:36

, , Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Looked at some claims about Aquinas by Norm Geisler, including a quick look at John 13:19, and then started to respond to the second in the series from Baptist Dogmatics regarding Matthew 24:36. What is “theological” or “dogmatic” exegesis? Well, we will find out more as we continue our review and response. But not tomorrow, though we plan on doing

The Regime Continues to Promote the Culture of Death, Christian Nationalism, Ecclesial Exegesis

, , The Dividing Line

Covered the waterfront today, so to speak, addressing issues such as news about the vaccines, Covid-19 manipulation, transgender insanity, etc., before talking briefly about “Christian Nationalism.” Then we addressed a few Craig Carter tweets, and then addressed the new book on “Ecclesial Exegesis.” We hope to do two more programs this week, one on Thursday, and one from ReformCon on

, , Church History, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

Did about 90 minutes today on a variety of topics but with a bit of a connected theme, digging into the text of John 3:13 as well as looking at Turretin’s discussion of the two natures of Christ. Finished up looking at the amazing behavior of folks on line in response to a new theological journal.

Road Trip Dividing Line from Ohio

, , Homosexuality, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Covered a lot of ground today from the RV park outside Columbus, Ohio, including a look at the Son of Man in Mark 9, some preview of the upcoming debate with Peter van Kleeck, some discussion of cultural developments such as Illinois declaring open season on its own citizens, the emptiness of “conservatism” without a real world-view foundation, etc., and

Mary as Mediatrix in Roman Piety, Comments on Scott Swain’s Experimental Idea from James 1:5

, , Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

We have no way of knowing what we will be doing for the next few days program wise, but we snuck one in today, looking closely at the infamous Marian prayer going around the net (one I was addressing in the early 1990s). Then we looked at Scott Swain’s comments on divine simplicity and James 1:5.

The Frankfurt Declaration/Responding to Craig Carter

, , Christian Worldview, Church History, Persecution, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

First hour or so I was joined by Pastor Tobias Riemenschneider, one of the framers of the Frankfurt Declaration (Frankfurtdeclaration.com). We discussed the declaration, its purpose and function. Then I responded to Dr. Craig Carter’s inaccurate and unkind comments posted yesterday, once again focusing upon the real issue that is coming out of the development of this “Great Traditionalism.” Nearly
