A Twitter Theology Dividing Line

, , Abortion, Atheism, Christian Worldview, Eschatology, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Mormonism, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Wrapping up our home stand before I head out next week with a pretty high energy program running through topics brought up on social media. We looked at how Francis is going to update his 2015 encyclical on the environment soon and asked, “If he can’t see the scam of climate change, how can he have much insight at all?”

Was joined by Pastor Jason Wallace for about forty minutes to talk about the new video he has produced, The Failure of Eastern Orthodoxy. Then Pastor Tobias Riemenschneider joined us from Germany to talk about his new book, Resisting Tyranny.

Some Voices from the Past, the Importance of Biblicism

, , Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Eschatology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Other than discussing some upcoming events (such as the debate in Pennsylvania), we took some time to listen to some voices from the past (Chrysostom, Jerome) and think about how things have changed. We also took some time to consider the definition of biblicism in the current controversy.

A New Low of Depravity, Wolfe on Dever, Anthony Bernabei Exposed

, , Abortion, Christian Worldview, Debate, Exegesis, Iglesia Ni Christo, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity, Unitarianism

Managed a solid live stream today, thankfully! Started off with an amazing example of “no, we haven’t hit rock bottom quite yet, but man we are digging hard” as far as the evil of man is concerned. Then we looked at Stephen Wolfe’s comments in response to Mark Dever on paedobaptism and a regenerate church membership. Finished up looking at

Pravda in Louisville; 1 Peter 3:15 and Isaiah

, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Transinsanity

The first 35 minutes or so of today’s program focused on the Miss Universe results in the Netherlands, where a highly unattractive dude beat out some absolutely stunning women, all in the service to the dismantling of the West. Then we looked at pure, unhidden, unapologetic propaganda from an ABC affiliate in Louisville, Kentucky. Then we switched over to an

Bruce Jenner Is Still Here, Then Leighton Flowers and Colossians 2:12

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Started off with stories about California and Michigan pressing the woke gender ideology that is a plague upon us all. Then, finally, as promised almost two weeks ago, I got to Leighton Flowers and his “Calvinists cannot answer Colossians 2:12” argument and discovered that in fact it seems it is the Provisionists who have to struggle with that particular text.

The Problem with the Pope

, , Christian Worldview, Church History, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Transinsanity

Our main discussion today was based upon Pope Francis’ kind letter to Fr. Martin and the LGBTQ folks meeting tomorrow at Fordham University. What does this letter mean, and where is Rome really going today? The alleged “certainty” that flows from the claim of Papal authority is a two-edged sword that really ends up showing us that Rome’s “constancy” is

From Harari to Barber: Trying to Make Sense of the Fast Moving World Around Us

, , Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Was running solo again today but managed to dive into a number of topics as well as get into the original language texts on topics such as Paul’s use of Psalm 2, 8, 110, and the nature of Christ’s kingdom and reign. We also talked a bit about Derek Webb’s deep dive into spiritual darkness, and finished up looking at

My First Solo Flight on the Dividing Line!

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

I ran everything myself today, so even I am interested in how it turned out! Covered a lot of current events driven topics, which, being June, included a lot of cultural stuff, the sufficiency of Scripture, legal cases, the SBC, that kind of stuff. Touched lightly on eschatology, law, etc. Just over an hour in length.

Thinking Through the Ugandan Controversy

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

It is very sad that the the Church does not speak with a unified voice in the modern world. Yet it remains our duty to think through, as Christians, the key issues we are facing in this world gone insane with its destructive rebellion. Today we looked at the comparison of a progressivist, “liberal” view on homosexuality with the comments

What are We Conserving? What are we Debating?

, , Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Started off with some thoughts on Ted Cruz’s tweet about Uganda and Charlie Kirk’s comments about conservatism. What are we supposed to be conserving if such basic, foundational truths as family and marriage are negotiable? Then we looked at an article Catholic Answers published last year in response to the “White Question” and then finished up talking about debates (as

A Starlink Dividing Line!

, , Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Technology, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

I cannot tell you how excited I am! I had always hoped Starlink would be a way for us to do what we need to do as far as Internet access while traveling, but we had real latency problems with it. Well, we decided to just try today and see what happened…and it not only worked perfectly for an hour

, , Christian Worldview, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Halfway through my May trip, currently in Memphis, headed up toward Nashville before doubling back to Pryor, Oklahoma. Gave a bit of a report on my time at GBTS in Conway, then got into Apologia Radio’s response to G3, then moved on to consider how Daniel 7 relates to other key passages, and finished up reviewing Albert Mohler’s article on

I am at GBTS in Conway and we managed (despite some challenges!) to get a full DL in today! Caught up with a lot that has happened over the past week or so on a number of topics. Hope the discussion is useful and helpful in the midst of all the fog being produced today. We will go for another

Upcoming Trip, Then Story Time with Grampa Jimmy

A Dividing Line I Cannot Summarize!

, , Abortion, Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

We have a guy at Apologia who posts hilarious out-of-context quotes from the sermon on our member’s page. I need someone like that to listen to every Dividing Line and come up with a brief, yet usable, title, because with programs like today, I just have no idea. We covered the Washington State law that would allow the state to

Christian Nationalism, Sacralism, and Christian Maturity

, , Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Eschatology, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Tackled the ever so easy, light issues of “White evangelicals,” Christian Nationalism, sacralism, and the recent dust-ups that had Reformed men posting clown-shoe memes about other Reformed men (all causing the angels in heaven to weep, me thinks). Had to do some eschatology and a lot more, but the fact is, it is indeed Christ or chaos, we must witness

, , Christian Worldview, Church History, Homosexuality, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Tale of two programs today as for the first half hour we considered the daily onslaught of secularism’s acidic destruction of Western society and life itself, and then switched gears to consider the newest edition of Credo Magazine and its full-throated promotion of, and defense of, “Reformed Scholasticism.”

Twitch Bows to Trans-Madness Mid Program

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line

As normal, it is Tom Buck’s fault. Everything is Tom’s fault these days, so, we might as well join in the fun. Seriously, I mentioned him retweeting the video of Riley Gaines being attacked by trans-madness thugs and that was just part of a half hour monologue on creation norms, the culture of death, and the madness of a society

Maintaining Sanity in Today’s Insane World

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Speaking Engagements, The Dividing Line

So much of today’s discussion in our society is focused directly on foundational Christian truths, and yet most in the church are silent, or confused. We discuss more developments in the collapse of our society’s cohesion regarding sex, marriage, and simple human existence, and look at two videos, one including Jim Wallace, the other the “Amen Church” in Dallas.

Took a few minutes to look at the new Obscurity of Scripture book and its two references to me, which led to a discussion of Jason Stellman, and then on to the document Indulgentiarum Doctrina. Finished up the program with a warning about legislation being introduced in California, Washington, and Minnesota, giving the State the power to take away your

Lots of Topics on the DL Today

Had a lot of mini issues to discuss at the top, then looked at an example of horrible racism, then discussed Derek Webb’s comments on a video posted by Leighton Flowers, then looked at the language used by Credo Magazine in self-defining “orthodoxy.” ADDENDUM: I forgot to add the information for ordering that wonderful tomb-scene wooden artwork I showed on

A Multi-Faceted Dividing Line

Covered a wide variety of things yet again on the program today, so a little something for everyone. Started off with the new Roman Catholic apologetics book against Scripture titled, “The Obscurity of Scripture,” and talked a bit about the obscurity not of Scripture, but of Rome itself. We also spent some time reading through Schaff’s discussion of Pope Honorius.

I am on the road, only about ninety minutes from home, doing a quick, brief shake-down run with the new fifth wheel. Have to test all the systems out to make sure we are ready to head to Utah in a few weeks for the debate at the University of Utah! We started out reviewing some of the key issues

A Twitter Based Dividing Line

, , Abortion, Christian Worldview, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Pauline Studies, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Technology, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Covered the waterfront today, so to speak, applying Christian worldview principles to a bunch of stuff that came up on my social media feed, including designer babies, gay mirage, and a bunch of broke wokeness. Started preaching a few times, I’ll admit, and Squirrel did his best to distract me, too, that mischievous little rodent!

TMS and DMCA, Why I Don’t Worship “A Particular Relational Inflection”

We had a technical problem at the start but managed to get in a full hour on the road once again, this time from West Texas. Addressed the Master’s Seminary issue relating to their filing a DMCA against the man who did the work to demonstrate the problems with Peter Sammons’ use of sources in an online class. This is

Long day on the road today but I really wanted to get a program in as I may be speaking the next two nights (my trip plans have been changed due to weather). In any case, looked at bit at the two homosexuals and their designer baby story, took the time to clarify some false claims floating around regarding Thomas

We did another Road Trip DL today from Lafayette, Louisiana where I will be speaking for the weekend.
