White Supremacy, Martin Luther King Jr.’s Theology, Imputed Guilt by Race, Kyle J. Howard’s Fear, Racialism, Open Phones

James White, April 6, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Spent the first hour going over developments over the past few days, including discussions of the Washington Rally with the National Council of Churches, the MLK50 Conference, Martin Luther King’s own professed theology, Thabiti Anyabwile’s imputation of guilt to our grandparents, and finally Kyle J. Howard’s public statement that he would not feel “safe” meeting with me alone “as a

Micro-Aggression Worship Songs, Tweets from the MLK50 Conference, Ehrman on the Gospel Writers, Open Phones

James White, April 4, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Mormonism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Covered a number of odd things coming out of the MLK50 Conference, including a “worship song” that included the concept of “micro-aggressions” (just finding a way to put that tongue stopper in a line of music deserves credit!) and a tweet insisting that “White Evangelicalism” (whatever that is) “owes” the “black community” monetary investment. Then we got back to the

Christian Renewal Focused on True Knowledge of Christ vs. Neo-Marxism (First Hour) then…Coherence Based Genealogical Method Introduction!

James White, April 3, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Technology, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Not sure a program could have two more different topics, but I managed to pull it off today! Spent the first 55 minutes starting off with a study of Colossians 3:9-11. I then focused upon what this text means as to the proper, biblical basis of Christian unity in the body of Christ. I then made application to the growing

Philosophical “Response,” Racialism Again, Calls Including Church of Christ Question

James White, March 29, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Hebrew Israelism, Iglesia Ni Christo, Pauline Studies, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off with some brief comments on a response posted by Dr. Davis in reply to the last program, and then spent quite a while on the race issue once again due to comments on line by Urban Apologetics and Kyle Howard. Took a call from our brother Kofi up north, had problems with the phones, and managed to get

Pelagians on Twitter, Man-Centered God at Bethel, Presuppositions in Ehrman, Open Phones

James White, March 22, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Mormonism, Pauline Studies, Radio Free Geneva, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off looking at a Pelagian on Twitter by the name of “C G.” Then played an entire ten minute long clip from a guy on the “Dead Raising Team” from Bethel Church in Redding about how we should believe in the goodness of people (please read Romans 3:10-18 over three times while pondering that concept). Before going to the

Chasing Textual Criticism into BYU, then Open Phones

James White, March 20, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, King James Onlyism, Mormonism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Started off with a (to me) really interesting discussion of a recent study in textual criticism that led me, in the minutes just before the program, off into the woods of Mormonism and BYU. At least I thought it was fascinating! But we eventually got out of the woods and did open phones on a wide variety of topics (isn’t

LGBTQ Tweets, Ehrman Dividing Mark and John, Open Phones

James White, March 15, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Homosexuality, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Talked a little bit about a Twitter exchange regarding LGBTQ books, and then moved to a rather full refutation of Bart Ehrman’s comments on Mark vs. John on the day of Jesus’ crucifixion (Nisan 13 vs. Nisan 14), and then went to open phones with once again a wide variety of calls and topics. Always interesting questions from the Dividing

Humanzees, Jordan Peterson, Parallel Gospels, and Open Phones

James White, March 13, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Mormonism, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Spent most of the start of the show looking at a video from Jordan Peterson and interacting with the concepts of suffering and human purpose in his lectures. Dr. Peterson has been great in exposing the fundamental flaws and simple irrationality of many of the left’s pet projects today, and we can be very thankful for that, but we cannot

Series to Begin Next Week, the Ebionites, and Open Phones on a 95 Minute Dividing Line

James White, March 1, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, Islam, King James Onlyism, Oneness Pentecostalism, Persecution, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized

Covered about half an hour of “topics” from the Ebionites to current discussions of “insanity,” and then we went to open phones with lots of questions on a wide variety of topics including the Trinity, Oneness, and two calls on textual variants (Romans 5:1, John 10:29).

The E Newsletter Begins Wednesday February 14

Rich Pierce, February 10, 2018, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Misc

For over a year now we have had some wonderful ladies volunteering to scan, proofread and reformat work from the early days of Alpha and Omega Ministries. They have been pouring through a gold mine of tracts and information sheets that covered a wide variety of issues. Many are unaware that in the late 80’s and early 90’s we produced

The Religion of Moloch Lives, Lizzie Schofield’s Review of G3 Debate, S&K Swings and Misses Yet Again

James White, February 1, 2018, Abortion, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Islam, Oneness Pentecostalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

A 90 minute edition of the DL today starting off looking at recent events primarily related to the Uber Sacrament of the Secularists, i.e., human child sacrifice, euphemistically called abortion. Then we considered a mainly negative review of my debate with Adnan Rashid offered by Lizzie Schofield. Finally we looked at the recent accusations brought by Jordan Hall relating to

2 John 11 Abused by Imbalanced Calvinists, the Death of LDS President Monson, Further Response to Ijaz Ahmad

James White, January 4, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Mormonism, Pastoral Theology, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off looking carefully at the text of 2 John 7-11 once again, this time as it has been abused by ostensibly Reformed folks. Then we looked at some of the shenanigans of the “only Calvinists are saved” brigade on line. Moved eventually to the death of LDS President Monson and the continued need to pray for God to pour

Daily Bible Reading Plan for 2018

Dr. Alan Kurschner, December 17, 2017, Blog Stuff, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Resources

It is about that time of the year when we are introduced to creative ways to read our Bible for the next calendar year. Did you do it this year? This is my tenth year encouraging others to take each day of the year to read and reflect on a single unit in the Gospels. Did you know there are

The Pope and the Lord’s Prayer, Slander & Keyboard, SJC, Zachariades & God’s Justice

James White, December 12, 2017, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off looking at Pope Francis and “lead us not into temptation.” Then had to look at Slander and Keyboard (the group formerly known as Pulpit & Pen, sort of like the artist formerly known as Prince…or Purple something, I could never figure that part out) as well as some wild eyed “bigotry in the name of Christianity is fine

Almost Mega Length DL with Five Major Topics

James White, December 5, 2017, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with the MSM’s hyping of the First Apocalypse of James, a well known gnostic work from, at the earliest, the late second century, most probably the third. Had a “Story Time with Uncle Jimmy” where I read the entirety of the work so you can respond to co-workers or others who raise the topic. Then we discussed Bill

Beyond Mega Length Edition of the DL: Textual Critical Topics, Islamic Topics, Response to Theodore Zachariades

James White, November 28, 2017, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Mormonism, Oneness Pentecostalism, Open Theism, Pastoral Theology, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Went two hours and eleven minutes today (sorry!), but had a lot to cover. Too many topics to list, but basically a lot on the new Tyndale House Greek New Testament, textual critical topics, Muslim apologetics issues, the Qur’an, and then responses to Dr. Theodore Zachariades on the topic of the decree of God and the will of man, i.e.,

Orthodoxy, Justification, James 2, Dale Tuggy, and Jordan Hall Rebukes Rodney Howard-Browne

James White, November 16, 2017, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, General Apologetics, Mormonism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Jumbo (90 minute) edition of the program today starting off with a discussion of Hank Hanegraaff’s video in response to John MacArthur leading to a lengthy (though somewhat concise) exegesis of James 2:14-24. After this I briefly addressed Dr. Dale Tuggy’s challenge to debate the Trinity. Finally I spent the rest of the program discussing Jordan Hall’s interruption of a

Ephesians 4:29-32 Applied to Christian Communication, A Hack-Job Video, and Francis’ Unorthodox Views

James White, November 14, 2017, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Mormonism, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Started off with some geeky stuff, a few new books, etc., then moved to Ephesians 4 and how we are to behave as believers, especially in the realm of communication. Moved seamlessly into a hack-job video that P&P is promoting, a personal attack upon me. Played the whole thing showing how whoever produced it (Hall knows and isn’t saying) purposefully

Travel Report and then the Pope on the Death Penalty

James White, November 2, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off talking about my trip to Ft. Worth and Washington, D.C., and then moved on to the Pope’s comments on the death penalty last month and its impact upon Roman Catholic “infallibility” and teaching authority. Here is the YouTube link: Live Video Stream The Dividing Line is on YouTube video. Our YouTube channel also provides videos of most of

Jason Lisle on Apologetics and Science, Honesty in Textual Criticism, More Reformation History

James White, October 24, 2017, Christian Worldview, Church History, General Apologetics, Reformed Apologetics, Technology, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Started off with my good friend and brother in the Lord, Dr. Jason Lisle, head of the Biblical Science Institute. Jason and I discussed some of his books and, well, lots of super geeky/nerdy stuff. Then we really shifted gears and I addressed an accusation made against me last week saying that my daring to talk about the textual variant

Horrible Arguments for the Roman Priesthood, Did Jesus Say the I Am Statements?

James White, October 4, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off covering a Catholic Answers article trying to find “clues” to the Roman priesthood in the Bible. Then moved on to the main topic, that being the discussion of whether Jesus said the “I am” statements as per the Craig Evans/Bart Ehrman discussion, and Mike Licona’s commentary thereon last week. Resulted in an in-depth discussion of inspiration especially in

Dealing With the Big Issues, Nabeel Qureshi, Truly Bad IFD, Thoughts from the Reformation Tour

James White, October 2, 2017, Christian Worldview, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Did our first live streamed DL in a while today, starting off, rather by necessity, with a discussion of tragedies and evils in light of the Las Vegas shooting. Then we discussed Nabeel Qureshi’s homecoming and related issues. Then we briefly mentioned a truly compromising “IFD,” and finished up with the Fritz Erbe story from the Wartburg Castle, along with

Stability, Order, Foundations, Adiaphora, and a Bible-Based Trip Down Memory Lane

James White, September 14, 2017, Christian Worldview, Misc, Musings, Personal, The Dividing Line

Had more streaming problems today (yes, we are considering outside interference, but for now, there really isn’t much we can do about it) so we recorded the program again. Spent most of the time looking at Colossians 2:5-7 and what it means to be stable, grounded, disciplined, and what this means in our present context. Then we took a little

Worship in Spirit and Truth, Totalitarianism, Robert Spencer Retreads

James White, September 12, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off the DL today with a review of some important thoughts from John 4, then looked a bit at the continued advance of totalitarianism. But spent most of our time looking at today’s Jihad Watch article re-treading the Yasir Qadhi story. Robert Spencer shows us once again the difference between approaching Islam from a worldly perspective or from the

Another Mega DL! Lots of Topics, Including P&P, Proud of Multiple Abortions, Muslim Arguments, KJV Onlyism

James White, September 7, 2017, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, King James Onlyism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized

Hard to even remember the number of topics we covered today! Looked at a tweet from P&P about my being “childish,” looked at a new contributor to WorldView Weekend who is just repeating the same old, oft-refuted errors, listened to William Lane Craig misrepresent Calvinists (again), played the disgusting clip of an actress proud of her multiple abortions, looked at

Brannon Howse: When You Combine Abject Dishonesty, Conspiratorialism, and Sub-Biblical Theology

James White, August 11, 2017, Christian Worldview, Islam, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Simply Silly, Uncategorized

So Brannon Howse is busy going after men who used to be on his network. It’s his way or the highway, obviously, and as with so many, either you are for me, or you are against me. There’s no adiaphora in Howse’s world. It is all black and white, always. Today Justin Peters spoke at the conference going on back

A Clarification on the Trinity for a Muslim/Brannon Howse on the Hagmann Report

James White, August 2, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

For the first 45 minutes we played a video from a Muslim asking a question about the Trinity based upon how the Holy Spirit “overshadowed” Mary. Since he asked for Christians to explain the passage, we did! Then we moved to last night’s Hagmann Report which, in the first hour, featured Brannon Howse. Here is the YouTube link:

God Made Man and Woman. PERIOD. Then Back to William Lane Craig and Presuppositionalism

James White, July 27, 2017, Atheism, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

The first half of the program was prompted by the Presidential statement (Tweet!) on “transgenders” in the military and the reactions to it from the secular totalitarians. What are the worldview implications and foundations? Then in the second half of the program we went back to the last portion of the comments made by Dr. William Lane Craig on the

More on WLC and Apologetic Methodology (First Hour), Karlo Broussard on the Alleged Parallels Between Atheism and Sola Scriptura

James White, July 25, 2017, Atheism, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

First hour we played material relevant to apologetic methodology as William Lane Craig continues his very interesting, if somewhat confusing, interaction with the debate Sye did on the radio. But we only got halfway through that, as I wanted to review some comments by Karlo Broussard on catholic.com attempting (badly) to parallel atheism with Protestantism (specifically, a belief in sola scriptura).

A Scriptural Case for the Deity of Christ/Interaction with a Proposal for the Government to “Study” Islam

James White, July 20, 2017, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Islam, Pauline Studies, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Only an hour today, but the first half was focused on the deity of Christ (interrupted by failing light strips in the studio!) and the second was focused upon a GOP proposal to identify “peaceful teaching Muslims” from those preaching violence. Basically, I really don’t want the government determining good and bad theology for anyone, because while the GOP may be

William Lane Craig on Presuppositionalism, More on the White/Howse (Get It?) Controversy

James White, July 18, 2017, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Simply had to deal with William Lane Craig’s review of a debate on apologetic methodology at the start—we will be waiting further installments as this conversation continues. Then I moved on to comment on the Janet Mefferd Show episode that aired Monday, Brannon Howse’s turning me over to Satan, etc. and etc. Comments on 2 John 7-11 as well. A
