Road Trip DL: Tucker Carlson, Doug Wilson, and Pope Francis

James White, April 19, 2024, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Musings, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Sounds like the beginning of a lame joke, doesn’t it? But, it was actually two topics, first, my responses to the Tucker Carlson/Doug Wilson program. Then, we looked at Pope Francis’ idea that homosexual men are working out “love.” The program started fine, then, our internet connection died (yes, we are working on improving that situation, but can’t do it

A Test DL of the New Rig

James White, April 9, 2024, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Well, I suppose the nice thing is the problem we had was net related, not related to our new set up. The equipment we have installed and set up in the new RV worked fine, but the net kept dropping out on us. I will have to set up Starlink as a back up for Thursday. Anyway, we talked a

This Age is Passing Away: the Emptiness of Secularism, then Hebrews 10 for Resurrection Weekend

James White, March 28, 2024, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Two primary topics on the program today, first, the emptiness of secularism and our need to be continually aware of its influence upon our thinking, acting, and speaking. Then, Hebrews 10 and its testimony to the purpose of God in the sacrifice of Christ, a particularly relevant topic on this Resurrection weekend.

Peter Schild and Tobias Riemenschneider from Frankfurt, Germany, on the Dividing Line

James White, March 22, 2024, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Musings, Personal, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I was joined by two dear brothers, Reformed pastors in Frankfurt, Germany, Peter Schild and Tobias Riemenschneider, to talk about their work in Germany and about global Christianity. A most enjoyable conversation!

Road Trip Morning Dividing Line

James White, February 22, 2024, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Just had to make note of the monumental Alabama Supreme Court decision and the issue of “By What Standard” that simply cannot be avoided. Then we looked at some further issues I had forgotten to get to on the last program about claims Trent Horn made and how all of this is so vitally relevant to the direction Roman Catholic

Lots of Short Topics, Andrew Fuller and the Reality of Death, then Back to Carl Trueman

James White, January 24, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church History, Godly Disciplines, Homosexuality, Musings, Open Theism, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism, Transinsanity

Touched on a bunch of topics from Texas to Alistair Begg to the United Methodists at the start. Commented briefly on some miserable souls on line who want to debate about infant damnation. Then read from Nettle’s fine work on Andrew Fuller and the reality of death and how it impacts us and our theological outlook, before moving briefly back

Kenoticism Examined

James White, January 11, 2024, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Exegesis, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism, Unitarianism

After some chatter about DEI’s destruction of the United States (and the West in general), we finally dug into a Twitter thread posted by Dr. Mike Riccardi on kenoticism and what it is supposed to mean and how we are supposed to identify it. Ended up going 90 minutes as a result, but this one will be discussed for a

End of the Year Dividing Line: General Cultural Topics, then TRBs.

James White, December 27, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Ken Wilson, Open Theism, Pastoral Theology, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Had to make brief mention of some of the big stuff happening in our day at the top of the program. Then did a quick summary of the Crusades in light of their being used by some CNs as some kind of positive thing, but then moved on into dealing with the TRBs, the Truly Reformed Baptists, and their willingness

Wimpy, Weak and Woke: John Cooper Joins us to Talk About His New Book

James White, November 16, 2023, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Eschatology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Spent a little over an hour with John Cooper today talking about his new book, Wimpy, Weak and Woke (available at johnlcooper.com though the Kindle is already available at Amazon). Talked eschatology and law and culture and the future and hope and what we need to be praying for as far as mercy from God! As always a pleasure to

Too Many Topics Today To Remember!

James White, November 14, 2023, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Exegesis, Molinism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Transinsanity

Went for an hour and forty minutes or so and covered a lot of topics, I must confess! Mainly focused on finishing up our response to Jason Breda on John 6 and his confusion about Greek verbs, participles, tenses, you name it. Did that, and then played a clip from Frank Turek claiming Calvinism is contradictory, and then a clip

Quick Thoughts on Ohio and the Pope, then Continuation of Radio Free Geneva

James White, November 9, 2023, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Debate, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Radio Free Geneva, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Said more than I wanted to say about Ohio and the Papacy (will actually say more tomorrow on a special third edition of the DL for the week) at the opening, then jumped into Radio Free Geneva (about 20 minutes in) and continued our review/response of Jason Breda.

Jeff Durbin on Ohio and Equal Protection, Muhammad Hijab’s Opening Presentation

James White, November 7, 2023, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Islam, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized

Jumbo edition of the program, basically two 45 minute segments. The first featured Jeff Durbin from his rental car in parts unknown talking with us about his work with End Abortion Now, the Ohio situation, the ERLC, and he and his wife adopting two premie baby girls. In the second I started playing Muhammad Hijab’s opening comments from a 2018

Zach Lambert’s Sermon Concluded

James White, October 26, 2023, Christian Worldview, Debate, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Took two complete programs to do it, but we finished looking at Zach Lambert’s sermon on “Homophobia and Transphobia,” getting to the part where the Bible finally was referred to: and twisted into a pretzel. It is truly hard to listen to “progressivists” engage in societal eisegesis, but we sure got our fill in today’s 1:50 minute long program.

Doug Wilson’s Response to Riley, Taylor Marshall and Justification

James White, October 21, 2023, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

On the last program I said I hoped Doug Wilson would respond to Michael Riley’s article on a Van Tillian response to Christian Nationalism, and lo and behold, he did just that. So, we took the time to look it over and comment on it. Then we looked at a Taylor Marshall tweet denying the imputed righteousness of Christ and

SEALS Beat Biden, Michael Riley’s Post

James White, October 18, 2023, Christian Worldview, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line

Today we were joined by Asa Miller, former SEAL and one of the primary people in the new documentary SEALS Beat Biden which comes out next month. We talked about a lot of things, and it was an enjoyable conversation. Then I went over Michael Riley’s post which appeared on the G3 website and I found most useful.

They Are Changing the NT! Plus a Lot on CN

James White, October 17, 2023, 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”

Road Trip DL from Baton Rouge

Rich Pierce, September 26, 2023, Christian Worldview, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

In between getting some needed maintenance done on the truck and speaking on textual criticism tonight, James took an hour to squeeze in a show. After doing some recap on G3 he discussed his sermon from Isaiah 41 and the Sovereignty of God “in time.”

Road Trip Dividing Line: California’s Secular Tyranny, Our Response, Some Taylor Marshall Tweets

James White, September 12, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Eschatology, Homosexuality, Musings, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Did the program live on the road from Indianapolis this evening, looking at the amazing secular tyranny in California, then a discussion of the challenges we are all facing as believers in these changing and unique times, and finishing with a look at some Taylor Marshall tweets.

A Twitter Theology Dividing Line

James White, August 31, 2023, 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?”

Jason Wallace and Tobias Riemenschneider Guests: The Watertown Arrests

James White, August 1, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

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. Then I took a while to look at the arrests of Christians outside a sexual perversion event in Watertown, Wisconsin.

Some Voices from the Past, the Importance of Biblicism

James White, July 28, 2023, 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

James White, July 13, 2023, 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

James White, July 11, 2023, 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

James White, June 22, 2023, 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

James White, June 15, 2023, 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

James White, June 13, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity

Talked about a lot of topics again, from Harari’s “AI can write a true Bible” to an atheist saying Augustine inserted the Trinity at the Council of Nicea to transgender insanity and finishing up with developments at the Southern Baptist Convention.

Solo Flight #2: Christ’s Reign, Derek Webb’s Darkness, Answering Leighton Flowers

James White, June 8, 2023, 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!

James White, June 6, 2023, 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

James White, June 1, 2023, 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?

James White, May 30, 2023, 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!

James White, May 16, 2023, 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
