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

Rich Saves France; Injustice in America; Eastern Orthodoxy’s Anthropology; Two Responses to Dan McClellan

, , CBGM, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Mormonism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Went more than 90 minutes today, mainly looking at first at the amazing corruption of the justice system in America and how it flows from the rejection of our Christian heritage and the embracing of secularism. Then we played a 60 second video from an Eastern Orthodox priest denying penal, substitutionary atonement. Then we finished up our response to Dan

KJV Only Abuse of Numerology, Dan McClellan on NT Manuscripts

, , CBGM, King James Onlyism, Mormonism, Technology, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Had a bunch of other stuff I didn’t get to, but did manage to look at an excellent example of how KJVOism destroys real confidence in the Bible by looking at an example provided by Pastor Jonathan Burris (here) regarding the abuse of Deuteronomy 16:11 by one such KJVO advocate. Then we moved over to this video from Dan McClellan,

They Are Changing the NT! Plus a Lot on CN

, , CBGM, Christian Worldview, Post-Evangelicalism, Technology, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, TROnlyism

Tale of two programs today, sort of. First 35 minutes or so were on Jeffery Riddle claiming they will be changing the NT in 200 places in the upcoming (24/25) NA29th edition, and what that is all about. Discussed ECM/CBGM, etc. For those interested in textual issues, you will enjoy that portion. Then we switched over to the “Christian Nationalism”

Apologizing for the Bible, Textual Critical Issues and the TR

, , CBGM, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, King James Onlyism, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, TROnlyism

Back in the regular studio today. Started off with a personal response to Andy Stanley on his apologizing for Christians seeking to apply “Christian rules” to non-Christians, and then looked a bit at Reuben Swanson’s books on the text of the NT (in reference to Thomas Ross’ use thereof), finishing with a read-through of Brett Mahlen’s chapter on why he

Short Follow Up on Aquinas, TR Onlyism in the OPC

, , CBGM, Church Fathers, Church History, General Apologetics, Personal, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Thomism, TROnlyism

Started off with a few comments regarding some of the response to Tuesday’s program regarding Thomism, including a thread by Danny Slavich. Then we listened to key elements of a webcast promoting TR Onlyism from Greenville Presbyterian Seminary and, yes, we made sure to play the part where at the beginning they indicated that the Seminary does not take a

Well, let me tell you, Rich is one happy camper. He got the bright idea today, really only a few hours before we started, to use Zoom to allow folks to call in to the program today. And…it worked. So I started off with about 20 minutes or so in response to a King James Only advocate giving a completely

OK, we covered the waterfront again today! Let’s see, started off with a response to some immature bullying on Twitter, and then moved on to this important and dangerous study regarding vaccines and the spike protein and the long-term degradation of the health and immunity that can result from that spoke protein. Then we moved into a completely different area,

, , CBGM, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, TROnlyism

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,

ECM of Mark, Mormons Hide in Basements, Gregory on the Spirit

, , CBGM, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Mormonism, Post-Evangelicalism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

The ECM volumes of Mark arrived ten minutes before the program started, so that sort of distracted me, so I spent some time talking textual issues, CBGM, etc., before moving to the Mormons and their fear of Covid. Talked a bit about the overwhelming flood of negative information and how we need to protect our joy from the corrosive influence

Road Trip DL from Boise

Considered the implications of the rapid fall of Afghanistan back into the control of the Taliban at the start of the program, then gave a report from my time in Moscow at the Grace Agenda Conference, NSA Commencement, and preaching at Christ Church. Then looked a bit at the release of Mark in the ECM and the release of the

Another Road Trip DL

Thoughts on the Legacy Standard Bible and CBGM, Roman Catholic Topics

, , CBGM, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, TROnlyism

Spent some time talking about how Australia has fallen into the pit of totalitarianism, then did an unplanned discussion of the Legacy Standard Bible’s reading at Jude 5 and the upcoming ECM volumes (and CBGM data) for Mark that will be available in about three weeks. Moved from there to a discussion of the “debate” of some kind between Michael

Read the Great Barrington Declaration and talked a little bit about my hopes that common sense will finally overthrow the tyranny that has entrapped most of the globe, and then completely changed directions and launched into a discussion of the wealth and value of the Greek manuscript tradition in light of the hyper skepticism expressed by Jeffrey Riddle during our

Yet Another Twitter Mob Refuted, Romans 5:1: Indicative or Subjunctive?

, , CBGM, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Pauline Studies, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Two major parts to the program today. First about 45 minutes I dealt with the explosion of another Twitter Mob today, stoked by people like Lex_Luther and Paul Flynn, who misrepresented an exchange I had about the role of politics and the reality of mortality in the panic surrounding Covid-19. They were (and are) calling for my burning, or at

, , CBGM, Church History, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Talked a bit about the announcement from Master’s that they are going to be putting out (and soon) the Legacy Standard Bible, an update/revision of the (I assume) 1995 NASB. Some thoughts on some of the unique elements of the translation. Then we talked a bit about what the “gift” is in Ephesians 2:8-9, and then took calls on a

Started off with the D. Wade debacle and the influence of the world’s insanity on “transgenderism.” Then we started a movement to have Francis renamed “Francis the Marxist” (it has a ring do it, I think). Mentioned the ecumenical “Mass” being held in St. Pierre, Calvin’s old haunts, and then got to the real topic of the day. We played

Gender Care, Text and Canon Conference Reviewed

, , CBGM, Church History, Homosexuality, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, TROnlyism

Took just a few minutes at the start to talk about a recent court case in which a judge overturned a Trump administration protection of the freedom of conscience amongst medical professionals and institutions and in so doing used yet another NewSpeak term, “Gender Care,” a euphemism for “bodily mutilation.” Then I went over Ephesians 3:9 and the blatant error

As was needed I responded to the slanderous misuse of a video clip by Eric Mason, author of Woke Church, for the first hour or so today, including the playing of the entire context from the July 26, 2016 Dividing Line from which he took his clip. A wide ranging discussion about the woke church, critical theory, identity politics, and

, , CBGM, Exegesis, Pastoral Theology, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Since I had travel problems yesterday I decided to sneak one more program in before I (Lord willing) fly out this afternoon. Talked a little about the textual variant at 1 Peter 3:15 and then moved on to the controversy that has arisen regarding the assertion that one must see David as a “rapist” regarding Bathsheba (2 Samuel 11-12, Psalm

This is a 90 minute examination of the background, history, and data regarding the famed “Comma Johanneum,” 1 John 5:7 in the King James Version of the Bible.

, , Abortion, CBGM, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, TROnlyism

In light of all of the hoopla about kids marching around wishing the planet would freeze up, we talked a bit about how this new religion is just a manifestation of the Culture of Death. Then I dove deep into a response to Chris Thomas on Luke 23:34 and then transitioned into a response to Taylor DeSoto and his blog

Pull the pin, toss the grenade, here we go!
