An intense teaching program today looking at Psalm 2, Job 23, and Ephesians 1, before looking at comments made by Dr. William Lane Craig in his book, The Only Wise God. Almost 80 minutes in length.
A Response to John Piper John Piper made a major mistake in late 2020 when he weighed into the US Presidential election with an article that emphasized the sinfulness of arrogance in a candidate that, at the same time, naively missed the reality of the arrogance of the worldview of the other candidate. Today we live with the results of
Well, it was actually OVER two hours long, and I still did not finish up, but we made good progress. First I responded to Evangelist Ted Alexander’s comments wherein he not only identified Reformed theology as fundamentally Roman Catholic, but said I am a Catholic, and a plant in the church, etc. and etc. So, we demonstrated he is suffering
Today we started responding to Leighton Flowers’ attempt to respond to our basic discussion of one simple truth and reality: the Provisionist view of man’s will and God’s grace is completely in line with the Roman Catholic view at the time of the Reformation; that is, Flowers stands firmly with Erasmus against Luther on this topic. This is all about
Since we are doing a major length Radio Free Geneva tomorrow, I needed to “clear the table” of the topics that have been piling up in my topics list. So we really covered the gamut, starting off with my thanks for having shared a great time with Skillet as they visited Phoenix last Friday. WE discussed the veneration of vaccines,
First half hour was on a variety of topics, including upcoming trips (and an invitation for you to send your church’s contact information to roadtrip@aomin.org) and a little on Thomas Aquinas. But then we went into the historical argumentation regarding the perpetual virginity of Mary as it was presented in this video demonstrating that, in essence, anything can be proven
Covered a range of items today but mainly looked at comments from the Provisionists on the nature of grace, and then looked at a defense of the new “Reformed Thomism” as well. Went nearly 80 minutes.
I’m sort of in El Paso (but not quite), with one more stop tomorrow night before I get home. I was going to hoof it straight from here, as it is surely do-able, but the long, long hours are piling up after more than two weeks, so safety suggested stopping at an RV park I know halfway home tomorrow. Anyway,
I’m in Lindale, Texas with the well known Troublemaker of the same area, Tom Buck, so we talked about…lots of stuff, from SBC stuff, G3, the future, you name it. Hopefully our discussions will be edifying to those facing many of the same challenges we are.

James and I sat down at the AOMin booth at G3 today and recorded a very special Dividing Line in front of a live audience. James discussed more of the current events in the news, the travel schedule progress and even some CBGM discussion. We even took some questions from the audience. Enjoy.
The second evening of the mini Conference on the solas is just 90 minutes away so we snuck a quick program from the AO Mobile Command in talking about the trip, what’s coming up at G3 and elsewhere, and responding to Soteriology 101’s paid advertising campaign looking to get “converts from Calvinism.” I wandered all over the landscape, to be

We chose to record today’s DL just in case the connection went wonky and broke up. But, it didn’t, and we managed to get about 70 minutes in today, mainly on two topics (with a brief trip report at the start). First, we discussed William Lane Craig, his views on Adam, and why this is pretty much just par for
I began working on this post in December of 2020, but I have put off coming back to it along with forgetting about it. But a recent sermon at my church on Romans 13 caused me to realize that I should address this. I will leave my thoughts from last year in place below and then pick up with where
Stumbled on a Soteriology 101 video asking if I am “right” about Matthew 23:37, so we dealt pretty fully with that new presentation for the first ninety minutes, then touched upon some other topics including Bart Barber’s amazing defense of Ed Litton. Mega edition, two full hours! I head out on Road Trip #2, heading for G3, so programs for
Third show of the week as we are preparing for the start of Road Trip #2 next week. Started off with some complicated stuff about ADE and mRNA vaccines and the dangerous rise in cases and infections amongst the vaccinated and why this is taking place (link to article). Then we, reluctantly, dealt with the Litton affair again, pointing out
Mainly addressed three topics today, Ed Litton’s egregious excuses for his plagiarism publicly promulgated at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, Todd Friel’s argument against seeing Romans 13 as having a basis in God’s law and definitions, and finally a few more minutes examining Hank Hanegraaff’s claims about church history.
After noting the passing, on the same weekend, of two of my former debate opponents (John Shelby Spong and Bob Enyart), we dove into this presentation by three Church of Christ gentlemen on the subject of “total depravity.” We covered a lot of ground and hopefully you will be aided by the discussion! We hope to do another program tomorrow
Split the show in two, first half hour dealing with religious exemptions, the ERLC article on the topic, vaxxonlyism and the carnage it has produced, etc. Then switched to responding to claims made by Hank Hanegraaff, the former Bible Answer Man, regarding church history. Included a short five minute sermon for us all at the end!
