Combine easy believism, man-centeredness, humanism, cultural secular dominance, and and abandonment of any deep seated knowledge of the holiness and “otherness” of God, and you have a situation rife for stuff like this, coming in September:
I am at my office on this Saturday afternoon, typing as fast as my fingers will go, working hard to beat my deadline in finishing this book before I head to the UK. The folks in channel are probably tired of reading my text dumps as I keep them appraised of what I’m working on. But in any case, I
Covered a bunch of stuff, starting off examining this really bad pro-homosexual argument, discussed a little about the LGBT terrorist in Washington, D.C., and then discussed the appearance of non-Trinitarian singing group PC&D at a local church (Scottsdale Bible Church) and the very odd response from the “Worship and Creative Arts Pastor” of the church. Then we moved back to
Pictures (esp. on cheapie little cell phones) just cannot begin to do justice to the sunrise this morning. I took this on my second climb up “Tower Road” on South Mountain (for those familiar with the park). It took a minute or two to get the phone turned on, and the sun is actually just peeking over the horizon in
Let’s hope this doesn’t get pulled.
Started off with half an hour responding to one of the worst Scripture-twisting arguments offered by pro-homosexuals relating to the Centurion’s son. Then we discussed the recent fascinating edition of Justin Brierley’s Unbelievable broadcast (found here) featuring Robert Spencer and Adnan Rashid. Then we went back to responding to, and refuting, the comments of Paul Bilal Williams in his recent
First, we will be moving the DL to 6:00pm EDT today so I can prepare a presentation on the single worst “homosexual Christian” argument ever made—why focus on the worst? Because, of course, it is becoming immensely popular due to its constant repetition on the Internet, that giant electronic web that constantly demeans serious thought and rewards facile (and in
Debuted our new “Radio Free San Francisco” theme today, created by Sir Barry Ladden himself, and kept moving in our examination of Harry Knox’s pro-homosexual presentation from the 2008 debate. Then, after about 45 minutes, switched over to an episode of Radio Free Damascus and began examining the presentation made by Paul Bilal Williams a few weeks ago in a
William Lane Craig responded to my criticisms of his use of Cerberus as an illustration of the Trinity on the Reasonable Faith podcast yesterday, so we played his comments and responded to them on today’s Dividing Line.
Doing a two week series answering those who constantly assert that the Gospel of Mark presents a “simply human Jesus” over against, say, John. Here are the first two installments.
Excellent article from Jason Engwer. All Tiber treaders and swimmers should think about it.
Mainly went over this article and its capitulation to the redefinition of the word “hate” as well as the entire concept of determining ethics and morality and right and wrong based upon the emotions and perceptions of people who have already proven themselves to be deeply dysfunctional in the entirety of their personal lives. I had seen the article last
Started off finishing up my response to Abdullah Kunde’s article (since he’s sort of “off line” for Ramadan, I kept it brief). Then I reviewed some comments on Jesus and homosexuality, and then interacted with Barnabas Piper’s article on why going to Chick-fil-A on Wednesday was, in his view, a “bold mistake.” I boldly disagreed. Then we moved into a

A fast moving jumbo DL today with basically two portions. In the first, I responded to this open letter on the subject of the profanation of marriage. Then we talked about this example of anti-Christian activism, and this amazing statement from the Mayor of DC. Then we moved over to a response to Tyler McNabb’s apostasy as announced on his
I suppose it is possible the folks at the Berean Call are just recycling articles these days. But I was directed this afternoon to an article in the July 2012 newsletter from TBC titled “Calvinism’s Surprising Catholic Connection.” There is nothing new here, it’s the same tired and refuted material we encountered in Debating Calvinism. Dave’s willingness to use the
I visited the Tiber a few years ago. It was green. Looked disgusting. I imagine there is some bad stuff in that water, and once you get it in your eyes, well, it really messes with your vision. Assuming the best, that you will eventually get that stuff cleared out of your eyes, and your head, I’d like to give
Tyler McNabb, a former Protestant who has decided to do the “cool thing” and apostatize, has shown he is to be taken as anything but serious by including in his “why I converted to Romanism” announcement the following statement: The principle of sola scriptura is not only self-defeating but the consequence of this doctrine is the creation of over 36,000
Back in January of 2011 I taught a module in Owensboro at the Midwest Center for Theological Studies. My primary student contact, and one of the folks who gave me transportation, took me out to eat, etc., was Justin Kline. There is video, somewhere, of his baby daughter, shall we say, burping on my shoulder. I learned only this afternoon
Started off with more reporting on the spiraling insanity and depravity of Western culture expressing itself in open hatred of Christian morality and ethics, especially in the abuse of the term “discrimination.” Then we started to take calls, and, well, though I wanted to get back to the Abdullah Kunde response, the calls kept coming and we filled up the
This is in response to Mr. Kenney’s July 25th letter, found here. It seems he decided to try to out do Boston with his invective and intolerance. And people say there is no anti-Christian sentiment being expressed! Amazing. Mr. Kenney: Two thousand years ago a man named Jesus lived and taught amongst the Jewish people. He was asked one day
On July 20th you sent a letter to the President of Chick-fil-A. In it you misrepresented Mr. Cathy’s published statements, as has been documented by numerous news outlets. Mr. Cathy had expressed, in respectful and measured words, his Christian conviction, based upon the Christian Scriptures, that marriage is a covenant between a man and a woman, so-called “traditional” marriage. And
I was contacted yesterday about a problem with my upcoming trip to Dallas for a debate with James Anderson, a very kindly and, in my few interactions with him, reasonable and thoughtful Oneness advocate. We had arranged the debate because I was going to be speaking at the Psalm 119 Conference with Todd Friel and Phil Johnson and others. Well,
Omar Qayum is a volunteer at the North American Muslim Foundation (NAMF). Today he posted an article on the MDI blog taking issue with various events in Canada. I read through the article over lunch, and just about choked on my pasta when I ran across this section in response to Roman Catholic Michael Coren: I challenge Michael to refute
My friends at the Midwest Center for Theological Studies are making available a Basic Training program that many of our readers might find to fit your needs perfectly. Click here for information!
Jason Stellman has officially announced his intention to join the Roman communion at the “Called to Communion” blog. However, in the meantime, that post has been removed. It’s unclear why it was removed, but the following are comments on the post that was put up on July 24, 2012. Jason writes: Part of me has wished for a while now
More specifically, I no longer see the Reformed doctrines of Sola Scriptura and Sola Fide as faithfully reflecting what the Bible teaches, which is why I will, Lord willing, be received into full communion with the Catholic Church sometime in the next several months. Let’s ponder this a moment. Scripture never directs us to a higher authority than God’s own
Started off discussing the continued moral schizophrenia of Western Culture and the continuing progression of NewSpeak, the evisceration of the language (diversity and inclusive becoming their own antonyms), and then got a few more minutes of Harry Knox’s comments covered as well. Then we shifted gears after a break and I responded to Abdullah Kunde’s article here.
Jason Stellman just announced his defection to Romanism in these words: More specifically, I no longer see the Reformed doctrines of Sola Scriptura and Sola Fide as faithfully reflecting what the Bible teaches, which is why I will, Lord willing, be received into full communion with the Catholic Church sometime in the next several months. Just a few weeks ago
