A First Century Witness to Justification By Faith Followed by Open Phones

Spent time at the start of the program looking at the witness of Clement’s epistle to the Corinthians from the first century to the doctrine of sola fide, and then took phone calls on a number of different topics including the gifts in 1 Corinthians.

Offering Incense to Caesar: Are You Ready?

Covered a bunch of topics today on the program—a few announcements about the upcoming debates in Salt Lake City and in Australia started us off. Then we looked at some comments from Bassam Zawadi regarding the view of some Christian apologists of the Bible and the resurrection. Also looked through Romans 8:31-34 in response to Dr. David Allen’s assertion that there are no texts in Scripture that connect atonement and election. But most of my time was focused upon the controversy that came up when Drew Brees recorded a completely innocuous little video about bringing your Bible to school. Well, it was posted by Focus on the Family, and since Focus hasn’t been willing to bow the knee to the LGBTQ deity, well, Drew must pay. Talked about persecution in the early church, different types of apostasy, and how each Christian today must decide when Caesar is demanding we bow the knee in areas where we simply cannot today.

Open Phones with Pastors James and Jeff

Did an hour and 15 minutes of phone calls (but, that was only 4 calls!) with my fellow pastor Jeff Durbin. Some good topics of conversation to be had, hope you find it encouraging!

A Ton of Important Stuff But Too Long for a Title!

Started off noting that the entire social justice issue has been declared to be a non-issue today—so thankful we will never have to talk about it again! Then we looked at a little Kyle James Howard (that always gets you smiling), and then moved on to more important things. Responded to Bassam Zawadi on a post he wrote about Christian history, and then played a clip from my debate in South Africa with Yusuf Ismail. Finally I went through 15 objections a convert from Mormonism to Judaism posted recently involving prophecies, textual variants, and the like. 80 minutes!

Critical Theory in the Church, the “Transient Text,” and Open Phones

Discussed a pastor who asked a couple to apologize for theoretical ancestral racism (killed the church plant), looked a bit at Robert Truelove’s opening chapter on “the Transient text,” and then took phone calls on a wide variety of topics, including the blasphemy of the Holy Spirit.  Just over an hour in length.  And don’t forget, we will be doing a Monday edition of the Dividing Line since I will be traveling back to lovely Colorado on Tuesday.
