Today kicked off the two-part debate between myself and Michael Brown. I suppose it is the classical Calvinist/Arminian debate, but I prefer the monergism/synergism description myself. In any case, we covered John 6, Romans 8-9, and Ephesians 1 over the course of 90 minutes. It is fast paced with very little break in the action, that’s for sure. Next week

Don’t forget the 90 minute exegetical debate today with Dr. Michael Brown, live on the Dividing Line, 10am PDT! That is an hour earlier than the normal Tuesday time slot. There will not be a later program at the regular Thursday slot. No, we will not have time for calls. We will be working hard to get everything into only

So, just who is Robert Price? Well, most of our listeners only know him as the guy Bart Ehrman dissed on the Infidel Guy show. I decided that needed to change, so, I played two portions of the 1999 debate between Price and William Lane Craig on the resurrection. I felt his opening statement, and his rapid-fire answering of at

   A two-part program with no phone calls—not because no one called (two folks did), but because I opened a second tab in Safari and forgot to switch back to the phone control tab, so I did not even see that there were callers! So much for my vaunted infallibility (as if I had ever claimed it!). Anyway, two portions to

   I have an ambitious schedule today as I want to play comments by William Lane Craig and Kevin Harris on the subject of Mormonism and the effort to help them become, well, “more orthodox.” These comments came from the Reasonable Faith podcast of 2/16/2010. This is a classic example of abandoning a biblical paradigm, the apostolic example, and the use

For those interested, we are digitizing old Dividing Line programs from around 2000 and live-streaming them at the regular DL link. Some folks are really enjoying the look back, so feel free to join in! Here’s the link.

Did the DL live from Kansas today, covering a brief update on the Ergun Caner front, reading an e-mail sent to Robert Sungenis and his answer for most of the hour, and the closing with the caller who had called the Pastor’s Perspective show and asked about Ezekiel 36 and the heart of stone and the heart of flesh (if

   Couldn’t let some folks have withdrawals for nearly two weeks (and I wanted to comment on a few things myself!) so we did a special Monday DL today. I started off looking at Ezekiel 36 and 37 and the beautiful presentation of God’s work of regeneration in the New Covenant displayed therein. Then we listened, without interruption, to a nine

Since I will be traveling both Tuesday and Thursday, we will do a special, early edition of the DL tomorrow at 10am MST (9am PST, Noon EST). I did not get a chance to play the “quote the text, quickly move therefrom” response of the men on the Pastor’s Perspective program when someone called in to ask about the heart
