John 6 and the “Pristine Faith Restoration Society”

James White, July 26, 2006, Exegesis

Last week I received a note chiding me for not responding to a man named Tim Warner, a “progressive dispensationalist” who is likewise anti-Reformed. I had noted his attempts to deal with key texts quite a while back. He replied, and the writer was chiding me for noting Hunt’s unwillingness to debate while I had not replied to Warner. Of

A Spurgeon Seminar in Rio Rico, AZ

James White, July 25, 2006, Misc

For those in the Arizona area, Phil Johnson will be doing a Spurgeon Seminar in Rio Rico (about 17 miles from the Mexican border) October 28-29, 2006. Here’s the info. I would love to hear Phil speak on his favorite subject, even more so now that I’ve been to the Metropolitan Tabernacle. If you are not headed to Orlando for

Back to Normal on the DL

James White, July 25, 2006, The Dividing Line

Very nice to have the full crew on hand (that amounts to two folks) for the Dividing Line today, and we spent the entire time on phone calls. Discussed sola scriptura and some of my past debates with Patrick Madrid and Gerry Matatics, then discussed a little bit about hyper-preterism and Luke 21, and finally closed with a call on

And Just When You Thought Da Vinci Went Away

James White, July 24, 2006, General Apologetics

According to The Independent, a British news paper, Simon and Schuster is dumping a quarter million into a marketing promotion for a book by an American woman, 43, named Kathleen McGowan, who claims…are you sitting down?…to be “a direct descendant of the physical union between Mary Magdalene and Jesus Christ.” Of course, she has received a seven figure sum for

While On Your Way to Church

James White, July 22, 2006, Jehovah's Witnesses

Sometimes I take a little trip through a residential area to avoid a bad corner on my way to the office. This morning as I went through this area I glanced at the thermometer and saw it was reading 111 degrees at only 10am. The thought crossed my mind, “I wonder if Jehovah’s Witnesses are out in this furnace?” I

Berean Call Statement, January, 2005

James White, July 21, 2006, Reformed Apologetics

It has been a while, so I had forgotten some of the details of what The Berean Call had said about the “Hebrew original” claims Hunt makes in his book. One of our channel regulars sent me the letter TBC had sent him on the topic, and it reminded me of just how embarrassing this situation is for Hunt, and

Hello Ed and the Folks at The Berean Call!

James White, July 20, 2006, Reformed Apologetics

A friend of mine contacted the folks at TBC about the DL today. The response was most interesting: Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We constantly monitor White’s website and are well acquainted with his statements. In response to White’s question as to whether the statement about Acts 13:48 was left in, it has. A couple of things.

Dave Hunt Weighed and Found Wanting

James White, July 20, 2006, The Dividing Line

Second solo run and amazingly enough, I got through it again! Played a clip from Dave Hunt demonstrating that once again he simply refuses to either “hear” or is so controlled by his traditions that he cannot hear. In either case, he is far from being able to speak the truth on the matter of Calvinism. Then we continued with

The Terrorist Tactics of the Homosexual Jihad

James White, July 19, 2006, Christian Worldview

Anyone who invests almost any time at all in following groups like SoulForce knows that the homosexual movement uses some of the most egregious forms of intimidation and fallacious argumentation to be seen in the American scene today. I was looking at one of their publications just now, and saw this paragraph: Let me make something absolutely clear: I do

Can Dave Hunt Ever Learn or Admit Error?

James White, July 19, 2006, Reformed Apologetics

After all these years, I’ve had to conclude that he cannot. No matter how often he is corrected, evidently, he has no ears to hear. And despite his saying that he has nothing more to say about Calvinism, he continues writing books, talking about it on his radio program, etc. Remember, Dave Hunt has a standing challenge to debate this

My First Solo Run on the Dividing Line!

James White, July 18, 2006, The Dividing Line

As shocked as some of you might be, not only did I manage to get through today’s Dividing Line (yes, I know, the server crashed ten minutes before the end—nothing I could do about that), but I have managed to properly convert files, connect to proper servers, upload the right files, rename the right urls, etc., and here is today’s

Yes, Theology Matters

James White, July 17, 2006, General Apologetics

One of our channel regulars, Phileas, posted a URL in channel this morning that caught my attention. The following statements all came from one individual. Don’t cheat and scroll down to find out who. Read them first, then follow the link. God is first and foremost an all loving Father, and any theology which fails to recognize this, in an

A Quick Note of Thanks

James White, July 17, 2006, Personal

I wanted to extend my sincere thanks to those of you who took the time to click on the “support us” link and join us as a regular supporter. We don’t talk a lot about money around here–not because we are fully supported but just because I have never felt it went well with apologetics. We don’t make marketing calls,

Gordon Hinckley Hearkens Back to Old Time Mormonism While De-Emphasizing Human Exaltation

James White, July 15, 2006, Mormonism

When you go to www.lds.org today you will find a “First Presidency Message” from Gordon Hinckley, printed in the Ensign magazine, July, 2006. Since this is the current prophet writing, being published in the official church publications, and being recommended for use and discussion by home teachers, there is little ground upon which anyone can question that this is official

Friday Morning Odds and Ends

James White, July 14, 2006, Misc

Watching the news these days reminds me of how frightening it must be to not know God has a purpose He is working out in this world. The Mideast remains a mess, and, of course, will remain a mess until either the Lord returns or He grants repentance to a very large group of people. There is only one hope

James White, July 13, 2006, Misc

I thought this had been concluded. But I just returned from dinner to find more e-mails waiting for me, one of which demonstrates that Ergun Caner did not even bother to read the last one I sent him though he responded to it! I am simply dumbfounded, especially since Ergun’s e-mail to Tom Ascol includes lines like this: As for

The Caner Saga: Episode MCLXVII: Revenge of the Synergists

James White, July 13, 2006, Reformed Apologetics

Maybe I’ll have more to say about this later. I don’t know. I talked a bit about it on today’s DL right at the start, where I read Ergun Caner’s letter and my response. I’m still processing this myself. I am still in a bit of shock. In any case, here is today’s DL. I have added all of today’s

Anthony Buzzard “Reviews” The Forgotten Trinity

James White, July 13, 2006, General Apologetics

Sam Shamoun, Islamic expert extraordinaire, happened to notice that once again a cheap hit piece has been posted in the guise of a “review” of one of my books on Amazon. I truly detest the review features which are so rarely used for reviews and so often used as a major-league sized “comments” section (another good example of why comments

Taking a Fresh Look

James White, July 13, 2006, Reformed Apologetics

The following e-mail was sent Thursday morning, July 13th, 2006, at 10:26am MST: Dear Dr. Caner: I just returned from ministering in the United Kingdom at the School of Theology at the Metropolitan Tabernacle in London, as well as a quick trip up to Glasgow, where I combined ministry (spoke on the Bible’s teaching on homosexuality-a privilege that will surely

A Special Word of Thanks

James White, July 12, 2006, Personal

I wanted to give a special thanks for Eddie and Lucy McKee, both members of PRBC. Eddie has been giving a lot of his personal time helping Rich with building projects in our new offices (hope to see the first six sets of shelves next week) and keeping the offices clean (he runs his own cleaning business, so if you

Paige Patterson Takes Up Whole Hour on the DL

James White, July 11, 2006, The Dividing Line

I managed to figure out where I left off in reviewing Paige Patterson’s presentation at the SBC, so we picked up right there today on the DL. For some odd reason got no calls, took no break, but pressed on for the whole hour on that one subject. And guess what? Paige Patterson mis-quoted a particular verse. Yes, that verse,

It Is Good to be Home / A Request

James White, July 11, 2006, Personal

Well, eight hours from Gatwick, another five from Philadelphia. Makes for a long trip, to be sure! But nothing spectacular to report. I did see “Eight Below” twice though. Yeah, I teared up when the guy found Maya and thought she was dead. I’m a softie, really. Once again, my deepest thanks to Roger Brazier, pastor of the Edmonton Baptist

Last Word from the UK

James White, July 9, 2006, Personal

Heading home tomorrow morning (Lord willing, as with all air travel). Spoke at the Edmonton Baptist Chapel this morning, then had a little adventure trying to get downtown. We were providentially hindered from making it. Back last evening from Glasgow, where I spoke on homosexuality at the Reformed Baptist Church, pastor Jim Handyside. And yes, I ordered my kilt while

Greetings from London

James White, July 5, 2006, Personal

A quick “hello” from downtown London. I’m actually finished speaking at the School of Theology, though there is one day left to go. Got caught in a downpour yesterday, got back to the Tabernacle only 15 minutes before speaking, looking like I swam in. But the Lord was merciful and I was able to put that out of my mind

Quick Note

James White, July 1, 2006, Misc

With the morning Bible Study and both services tomorrow, followed by a morning flight out, through Charlotte, to London, basically wiping Monday out, getting me in only hours before I speak at the School of Theology on Tuesday, I have a feeling I won’t be blogging for a while. Lord willing I may–and I emphasize may–get a chance to put

On the Dividing Line Yesterday

James White, June 30, 2006, The Dividing Line

Yesterday on the DL I reviewed the first portion of Paige Patterson’s comments in the Patterson/Mohler discussion at the SBC, once again noting, with not a little bit of thankfulness, the lack of rancor in the discussion and the fact that Patterson, though still giving what I would consider surface level answers to important issues, is on a completely different
