Today I was joined by Ivey Conerly to discuss the release of our new video, Why I Love Jesus But Reject Islam, posted below. It was great to be able to have this brother and fellow laborer in the Lord on the program, and I can’t wait to work with him in producing 40 Arabic Words, a Christian gospel presentation

I have provided to Ivey Conerly my thoughts on how to present the gospel while dealing with one of the biggest hurdles Islam places before faith in Jesus, that being Surah 4:157: That they said (in boast), “We killed Christ Jesus the son of Mary, the Messenger of Allah”;- but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but so it
My sincere thanks to Ivey Conerly and Marcus Pittman and to all who made this project possible. Soli Deo Gloria! Please send this video far and wide!
Our professional response will appear shortly! The “He Submitted Freely” t-shirt is available here.
I need to be brief, as I have many pressing duties. Reading the commentary on the Elephant Room 2 events, and in particular, the alleged rehabilitation (repentance?) of TD Jakes has truly been brought me sadness. Sure, I know that very few Evangelicals, even scholars, have much experience with modalists and Oneness advocates, but still, the general ease with which
For truth-loving folks, questions remain for TD Jakes, not just about his views on the Trinity.
Isn’t John MacArthur a cessationist? I thought he was, but if so, how is it that Phil Johnson is clearly a prophet? Listen to what he said to the Frielmeister about the (at that time) upcoming Elephant Room 2:
The Christian life is a life of repentance. Every day involves a consistently repentant attitude before God, trusting in the finished work of Christ. Despite the non-gospels so prevalent today where repentance is made an after-thought, or an option, there is no gospel without repentance. So when someone tells me to repent, I want to know exactly what they are
We had a double hard drive failure today on the Wayback Machine. Looks like the boot records bit the dust. We are offloading the data files, which still seem to be usable, right now. In the meantime, no Wayback till we can get new drives installed and up.
OK, we’ve never crashed our servers before by going past the maximum number of connections, but, we did today. I guess there is really a great deal of interest, which, on one level, is very encouraging. In any case, I addressed the TD Jakes: is he a Trinitarian? issue head on during the first hour, and then took calls on
David Wood just posted these over at Answering Muslims. It is great to hear someone whose origins are from “the other side” of the divide confirming what we have been saying repeatedly in reference to this vital issue (i.e., he knows the Islamic sources from the inside though he is a convert). A full and complimentary study would be found
The punchline is this – “a goat ate it.” In discussions regarding Qur’anic preservation, the following hadith is sure to come up: Reported ‘Aisha (RA): ‘the verse of stoning and of suckling an adult ten times was revealed, and they were (written) on a paper and kept under my pillow. When the Messenger of Allah (PBUH) expired and we were
I bet John never expected to see himself mentioned quite like that before. But, we did have John Samson in studio today to talk about his new book from Monergism.com, Twelve What Abouts, which you can find here or here. We then went back to reviewing Emir Caner’s sermon against Reformed theology, and then took calls on the topic for
The anti-Christian left cares nothing about truth, or freedom of dialogue, or thought. It cares only that you agree and follow. Today’s example. This one hits home with me, as my daughter faced similar anti-Christian cowardly bigotry in her community college.
We will start off tomorrow with a Mega edition of Radio Free Geneva. Author and pastor John Samson will be joining me to talk about his new book, and then we will continue our examination of Emir Caner’s sermon on Calvinism, which we began reviewing last week. Then we will have a Jumbo edition of Radio Free Damascus on WEDNESDAY
I understand that my friend, Dr. James White, may be preparing a better response to “Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Muslim Version,” but I want to chime in now, while it is fresh on my mind (rather than waiting 24 years – just sayin’). I’ll respond in chunks to the lyrics. The production quality was pretty good
You would have to be living under a rock somewhere not to have heard about the viral video produced by Jefferson Bethke called “Why I Hate Religion But Love Jesus,” found here. 15.5 million views so far. Others have commented on this video, so I will not. In any case, it has spawned many responses on YouTube. I saw a
We have noted this before, and when the guys at Acts 17 reposted it just now, I thought I would comment again. There is something deeply disrespectful in Ehrman’s comments here. Oh, I’m sure he was just trying to be funny, in a way. But remember when I asked him serious questions about his methodology and his conclusions as they
Yes, you read that right. Put together a theme song and everything (hoping for a graphic from Hacim, son of Ramallah, King of Graphics soon). It is our new feature for when we focus on specifically Islamic topics, just as Radio Free Geneva is for when we focus on specifically Reformed topics. But instead of broadcasting from our bunker under
OK, descending can be fun, sure. But once the speedometer passes about 40 mph (about 65km/hour for our non-US readers) I start getting nervous. I’ve hit 48 on a downhill (I-17 southbound into Black Canyon City, the famous “Five Mile Hill”) back in the 90s, and I did tick up to 46.4 on the downhill into Tortilla Flat back in
We will launch a 2-hour Mega DL tomorrow an hour early. We will finish up our examination of Diaa Mohamed’s claims, and then launch into Wajdi Akkari’s comments here: Don’t forget, we will start an hour early. See you then!
Looks like Rich Pierce has emerged from the dungeon having finished his complete re-work of my FaceBook page. Thanks to all who cooperated with him in giving it a complete make over. Sorry to the few who can’t post there anymore who were accustomed to doing so and making it look like I was supporting…whatever. Hopefully everyone will find it
Had an unusually large number of live listeners today (most of our listeners use the pod-cast/download options) as we did a two hour mega edition Radio Free Geneva. We finished off our response to James McCarthy’s sermon on Calvinism, examining his means of dealing with John 6 and its teaching. Then we moved to the sermon Dr. Emir Caner delivered
Back in 1987, at the Bayview Baptist Church, Karl Keating engaged in a debate against Peter Ruckman. Although Dr. White has had an open challenge to Keating since October of 1990 (see the discussion here), we have yet to see a debate between Karl Keating and James White. Perhaps this critique will prompt Keating to step up to the debating
Starting at 11am we will go for two solid hours so we can finish off our review of James McCarthy’s sermon (looking at how he attempts to deal with John 6) and then we will launch into a review of Dr. Emir Caner’s sermon from September 18, 2011 at the Monclova Road Baptist Church in Ohio. So join us tomorrow
I found a book on Archive.org that I’m sure our readers would like to check out as well. The file (book) I’m referring to his titled Is Jesus God: An Argument by Graduates of Princeton Seminary, originally published in 1912, with an introductory note by B. B. Warfield. Table of Contents as follows: “Does the Christian church teach the deity
