The Wisdom of the World, Then Two Important LDS Issues

James White, September 10, 2024, Christian Worldview, Debate, General Apologetics, Mormonism, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Did an early show today (but still had a large live audience for some reason!) and mainly covered two topics: first, a blog article Phil Johnson wrote 15 years ago that Stephen Wolfe identified as “moronic,” and then two LDS topics that illustrate just how much the Mormon Church has changed over the past forty years. Enjoy!

Your First Love, Response to ADRobles

James White, September 5, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Godly Disciplines, Islam, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Spent the first half of the program looking at Revelation 2:2-5, and then transitioned into listening to ADRobles’ ruminations on last week’s DL about the Crusades. Over ninety minutes in length.

A Slightly Abbreviated DL Today: So How DO You Define the Reformation?

James White, September 3, 2024, Debate, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

I explained at the start of the program that things had developed that required me to shorten the program and rush off a bit…to get my new (first time) hearing aids! Wow, did you know that the keys on a keyboard make little clicky sounds when you press on them? Who knew? I was pretty surprised they could do it

Jason Lisle for 45 Minutes, About All that Crusading Stuff

James White, August 29, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church History, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with our dear brother Jason Lisle discussing his new paper on cosmology and its very, very important implications (both Rich and I struggled to keep up, but, that’s just the nature of the information!). Here is the article at Jason’s website. Then I just calmly went back over the key issues that have arisen over the past week

Why I Will Still Vote Against the Marxists, and Why the Crusades Were Still a Mockery of the Cross and the Gospel

James White, August 27, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church History, Misc, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Uncategorized

Two topics today. First forty minutes on my thoughts on the upcoming election and how, if the Marxists are victorious (and that may be a foregone conclusion), it could be the last even pretend election in our lifetimes, and how this should, in my opinion, impact those who have decided that not voting is their best choice. Then, in the

A Few Comments on the Revolution, then a Response to Robert Gagnon on John 10

James White, August 21, 2024, Christian Worldview, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Snuck in a program today mainly focusing upon John 10 and Robert Gagnon’s comments about “eternal security,” though we did start off with a few “our culture is collapsing into a Marxist cesspool” observations at the start.

Rome and Mary: the Sad Reality

James White, August 20, 2024, Abortion, Church Fathers, Church History, Misc, Personal, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

After running our raffle and determining the winner of the wonderful Derek Melton blade, and after I spent some time talking about a neat and encouraging gift from a young man at Apologia, we turned to Roman Catholicism, Pope Francis, and the entire complex of Marian doctrines that are so utterly destructive to the gospel and to Christian experience. We

Being Consistently Reformed, Talking With Muslims

James White, August 15, 2024, Baptism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Islam, Personal, The Dividing Line

Covered a lot of ground today. Started off mentioning this video on Eastern Orthodoxy, as well as this video on the communist infiltration of the West. Then we revisited how Reformed men should approach any topic, but in particular, the topic of the New Covenant, baptism, etc., in light of further comments made on last week’s debate with Jared Longshore.

Final Road Trip Program for This Trip

James White, August 10, 2024, Baptism, Christian Worldview, Debate, Eschatology, Musings, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Unusual Saturday program, but travel is that way. Thanked the local churches I ministered in on this trip, then talked a bit about Wednesday’s debate with Jared Longshore, and then finished up with a response to a denial of the imputation of the active and passive obedience of Christ in justification, along with providing a refutation of how that denial

Road Trip DL: Responding to Eric Conn and Andrew Torba

James White, August 8, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Mainly worked through the exchanges on line between myself and Eric Conn (Ogden) and Andrew Torba (GAB) on issues related to ethnicity, etc., though I started out looking at the utter collapse of the UK into Orwellian dystopia, and that right before our eyes. It is truly amazing.

Road Trip DL: Asking Some Questions of Eric Conn, Reviewing the Debate with Tim Barber

James White, August 5, 2024, Christian Worldview, Debate, Open Theism, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

A stormy weather DL from Golden, Colorado. Talked about some of the goings on in culture once again, then asked some questions of Eric Conn (hoping for helpful answers!), and finally toward the end looked at some issues regarding the debate with Tim Barber and my insistence that in the future my debate opponents not rely upon pre-written rebuttals and

Rich Pierce, August 2, 2024, Open Theism

Join us for a debate between Dr. James White and Tim Barber regarding Open Theism and the question, “Does God Know the Future Exhaustively and Perfectly?”, hosted by New City Church.

Road Trip DL: Responding to the Backlash on Mocking the Holocaust, Plus a Little Olympics Commentary

James White, August 1, 2024, Christian Worldview, Godly Disciplines, Misc, Musings, Offense, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Simply Silly, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Transinsanity

Had to spend 3/4 of the program responding to the amazing outpouring of, well, error and conspiracy and disrespect and nastiness on social media following the previous Dividing Line and my relatively short discussion on the meme mocking the Holocaust. Folks, there are serious, serious problems under the surface in a lot of Reformed churches. Beware! Keep an eye out!

Another Road Trip DL from Colorado

James White, July 30, 2024, Christian Worldview, Debate, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, Speaking Engagements, The Dividing Line

Started off with details about my upcoming debate with Tim Barber here in Colorado (Open Theism), the conference the next day, preaching on Sunday, and next week’s debate with Jared Longshore. Then had to discuss the degradation of the US’s political system, the obvious (and welcomed by the Marxists) foreign interference, etc. Also discussed a priest’s comments on mortal sin,

Star Gazing with Jason Lisle, Kamala the Marxist, Responding to Al Garza on Augustine and the LXX.

James White, July 25, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Eschatology, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Simply Silly, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Road trip DL from Colorado Springs prior to the debate on Saturday. Covered a wide variety of topics, but spent most of our time reading from Augustine and dealing with his use of the LXX, early translations, etc.

Road Trip DL from Santa Fe

James White, July 23, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Started off with all the amazing developments since just last week in Western culture and in the US elections. Addressed the theory that the entire NT was originally written in Hebrew. Then started taking some great Twitter questions once again on a variety of topics. Headed to Colorado Springs tomorrow, should be doing another program on Thursday.

Twitter-Driven DL from Dolores, Colorado

James White, July 19, 2024, Ken Wilson, Misc, Mormonism, Open Phones, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism, Uncategorized

I am thankful that Twitter was not taken down by today’s huge IT crash/failure, since we took our questions from our audience, and they were great questions! We will definitely have to do it this way in the future when I am traveling (much less technically challenging than trying to take calls when I am remote). Covered a wide variety

Road Trip Dividing Line: No, Seriously, STOP IT

James White, July 17, 2024, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Simply Silly, The Dividing Line

More craziness today with people now going to Leviticus 8:23 and the placing of blood from the sacrifice of the ram on the right earlobe of Aaron, connecting this to Trump getting shot in the right ear. You can’t make this stuff up. It’s truly cultic, and we discussed it, along with other developments in the assassination attempt, Biden’s sudden

Road Trip Dividing Line

James White, July 16, 2024, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line

Did a program from my location in northern AZ and Starlink worked great for us today! Very pleased with that to be sure. Covered developments in the Republican Party (abandoning a biblical view of marriage and softening their position on abortion), the attempted assassination of Trump, the wild and crazy stuff being said about Mary saving Trump, or Ephesians 6:11,

The Changing World of Mormonism…and the Vatican

James White, July 11, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Homosexuality, Misc, Mormonism, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

After playing Joe Biden calling the president of Ukraine “President Putin,” we looked at how the passing of time has brought changes to Mormonism, and then looked at how such development takes place within Roman Catholicism as well.

Raffle Winners, the Suicide of the West, God’s Law, the New Hays book, Francis Does It Again

James White, July 9, 2024, Debate, Homosexuality, Islam, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Had our raffle for the Jeffery Rice rebind and the layered cross Rich made right at the start of the program. Then we talked a bit about Jake Brancatella and a situation in his life, and then dove into the many examples of the suicide of the West that came out over the weekend. We moved to Jonathan Merritt’s article

Eucharistic Miracles and the Modern Roman Catholic Situation

James White, July 5, 2024, Mormonism, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Jumped off from a few Twitter conversations to discuss “eucharistic miracles” and related topics, all pretty much on Roman Catholicism. I did start of the show with Biden’s “I am not going to drop out, and we will beat Donald Trump in 2020!” statement from earlier today.

SCOTUS Madness, Then Open Phones

James White, July 2, 2024, Church Fathers, Debate, Eschatology, Open Phones, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line

Talked a bit about the insane responses to a common sense SCOTUS decision, then went to the phones, covering Ignatius and the Eucharist (here’s the video I mentioned), what to do when asked to leave a church over Calvinism, supralapsarianism and the divine decree, intinction, Jeremiah 31:33/Romans 2:15, and finally “intellectual dispensationalism.”

Let’s Make Cyril Lucaris Great Again!

James White, June 28, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, The Dividing Line

Finally got around to having Jason Wallace join us to talk about this video he posted a while back on the fascinating topic of Cyril Lucaris, the Calvinist Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. If you are encountering the claims of Orthodoxy, this is a program you will want to listen to! Enjoy!

Presidential Debate, Latin Mass, the God of Purpose and Glory

James White, June 26, 2024, Debate, Misc, Open Theism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Started off today with a few interesting and funny tweets, wished Tom Buck a happy birthday, lamented tomorrow evenings Presidential “debate,” discussed Francis’ detestation of the Latin Mass, and finished up looking at the comments of an open theist concerning God’s decree and his demand that God be as limited and creaturely as the rest of us.

An Unusual Monday Morning Dividing Line

James White, June 24, 2024, CBGM, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Islam, King James Onlyism, Misc, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity, TROnlyism

Covered a wide range today, from insanity in Germany, more and more studies showing the danger of the Covid jabs, the Biden Regime’s war on Christians, a few interesting graphics I’ve run across, to finally in the last half of the program, a brief video from Barth Ehrman showing his theological shallowness and the reasons thereof. Also mentioned once again

Archbishop Vigano Torches Francis, Open Phones

James White, June 20, 2024, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Misc, Musings, Open Phones, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

We had to take time to read through Archbishop Virgano’s utter torching of Francis and the current Vatican regime at the start of the program, then we took calls on the following topics: conjectural emendation in the Old Testament, issues relating to annihilationism/conditionalism, Shoemaker’s critical study of the Qur’an, advice for a new father, developments in Mormonism, and raising godly

Passion Translation, Nicene Creed, and a Boatload of Anathemas

James White, June 18, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, The Dividing Line

Briefly commented on a year old tweet from Mike Winger on the amazingly loony “Passion Translation,” then moved on to talk about the Nicene Creed and the Southern Baptist Convention, looking at some comments of David Allen. Next week we hope to be joined by Jason Wallace who produced a 37 minute video about Cyril Lucaris, so today we looked

Further Thoughts on the Origins of the Term “Biblicism”

Chris Whisonant, June 17, 2024, Church History, Reformed Baptist Issues

As there continues to be pushback against those of us who would refer to ourselves as “Biblicists” (or, better yet, as “Reformed Biblicists“), I have been looking at the history of the usage of the term. This is not very hard to do, yet some professors and pastors seem to have difficulty with it. In my previous article, which detailed

The Mormon Question and Then Open Phones

James White, June 13, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Mormonism, Open Theism, Provisionism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Briefly addressed the “Mormon Question” in light of the recent get-together featuring Glenn Beck, then went to the phones, answering questions on the meaning of Elohim, Open Theism, Mormon Polygamy, prayer to saints, the Sovereignty of God, and finally the schools of Antioch and Alexandria.
