James White, April 23, 2025, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Mormonism, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

ReformCon starts tomorrow afternoon, so I am in Tucson and we did the program from the Mobile Command Center once again. Talked about the coming demographic disaster and its relationship to worldview issues, then discussed the utter evil of the leftists in Colorado pushing to destroy the family and corrupt children, and finished up going over this article that I

Road Trip Dividing Line: Jeff Durbin and the Jewish Representative, then Jay Dyer on Abraham

James White, April 1, 2025, Christian Worldview, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Road Trip, The Dividing Line

Rich worked hard to work on the audio challenges we have had in the past and the changes made it a lot easier for me to play video clips on the program today. So, we looked at Jeff Durbin’s exchange with the Jewish representative in Georgia, and responded to Joel Webbon’s criticism of that exchange. Then we looked at some

Story Time with Uncle Jimmy: The Acts of Paul and Thecla

James White, March 26, 2025, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, The Dividing Line

As promised on today’s program I read through The Acts of Paul and Thecla, commented on the Orthodox veneration of Thecla as a saint and “equal of the Apostles,” and what we can learn about the context of the origination of this apocryphal mythology from the second century. By the way, here is the article I mentioned from the OCA

I Told You the Sacralists Were Coming, Didn’t I?

James White, March 25, 2025, Abortion, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

So Joel Webbon dropped a webcast about how the State is to correct the Church, and how this has been normative throughout church history. Well, do forgive me, but I’ve always opposed sacralism, still do, always will, and the errors and holes in the presentation, historically and logically, were big enough for me to drive my big GMC through, so,

A Divided Nation Then Thoughts on Ecumenical Councils

James White, March 18, 2025, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Reflected on the deep division that exists in Western Culture today and in the United States in particular, and then moved on to some of the Jay Dyer stuff and the continued need to have an in-depth discussion on the “7th Ecumenical Council,” aka Nicea II.

Jay Dyer Implodes on the Playground; Yes, Joe, Bishop and Elder are the Same Office

James White, March 13, 2025, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, Pauline Studies, Personal, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

About halfway through the program we had a power spike due to a storm blowing into Phoenix, but we got it all recorded anyway. First I dealt with the amazing explosion of infantile behavior by one Jay Dyer when I dared actually treat him like an adult in challenging him to defend Nicea II in debate. You won’t believe his

All About Ignatius with Timothy Easley

James White, March 12, 2025, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Spent ninety minutes talking Ignatius, recensions, manuscripts, etc. with Timothy Easley today! Definitely a program for church history geeks! Hope all two dozen of you enjoy it!

Road Trip DL from Jonesboro

James White, February 27, 2025, Church Fathers, Eastern Orthodoxy, General Apologetics, King James Onlyism, Musings, Personal, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Mainly covered the upcoming debates, how to properly encourage someone interested in pursuing apologetics, foundational issues, etc., and then talked a bit about Gavin Ortlund and his videos, and the recent discussion about the canon of Scripture, the Deuterocanonical books, etc. Not sure about when we will be able to do programs next week, to be honest, as I drive

Road Trip DL: Conway; Francis, the Future, then Zeitoun as Evidence

James White, February 24, 2025, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Personal, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Snuck a quick program in today before teaching at the seminary this evening, talking about developments with what seems like the soon passing of Pope Francis, etc. Then we briefly discussed recent conversations concerning Cameron Bertuzzi, a convert to Romanism, and his claim that the supposed appearances of Mary at Zeitoun, Egypt, decades ago provide better evidence for the Christian

Still in Phoenix! Why? Explained. Then: More Developments in Rome

James White, February 18, 2025, Christian Worldview, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Explained why I am still here in Phoenix when I was supposed to leave today (I leave tomorrow). But mainly we focused on Pope Francis as well as a video clip attacking sola scriptura. If Francis passes, will you be ready to take advantage of all the opportunities to bear witness to the gospel of grace? This episode might help!

That Weird Pointy Hat Procession, then, Stephen Wolfe’s Smarter Worldview

James White, February 4, 2025, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, General Apologetics, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

Went for a jumbo edition today in the big studio with the big board! Commented briefly about the Roman Catholic penitential procession video that made the rounds a few days ago, then we looked at Stephen Wolfe’s lengthy tweet about the term “worldview” and how we would be better off abandoning it. Hardly surprising, but I disagreed!

Stone Choir Cult Attacks Plus More

James White, January 27, 2025, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Ken Wilson, Misc, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Racialism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Went a full 90 minutes today starting with Corey Mahler and the Stone Choir Cult’s attack on my last evening, followed up by Mahler’s amazing promotion of Marcion’s gnosticism. I used his false statements about the name Yahweh to go into church history and trace the damage that was done by the loss of the knowledge of Hebrew and how

The Andrew Tate Saga Isn’t That Tough, Then, the Alleged Seventh Ecumenical Council (787)

James White, January 16, 2025, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Pastoral Theology, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Is Andrew Tate “sinning in the right direction?” I am not even sure what that is supposed to mean, but we spent some time talking about Andrew Tate and the fascinating interaction Christians have been having with him. Then we just about burned the clutch out by shifting over to a discussion of “Ecumenical Councils” and specifically the so-called 7th

A Few Advent Thoughts, Then, Who Has Really Changed?

James White, December 17, 2024, Eastern Orthodoxy, Misc, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with some seasonal thoughts about Incarnation, Crucifixion, the differing emphases between East and West on those topics, etc., and then transitioned into looking at statements being made on line attempting to create a false narrative that simply goes against history.

Return Road Trip DL from the Middle of Nowhere

James White, December 10, 2024, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, Misc, Musings, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, Simply Silly, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I am in western Oklahoma, just shy of the Texas panhandle, and I am truly in the middle of nowhere. But, we set up Starlink and got the job done! Pretty much went through a Twitter thread from a fellow named BG Apustaja and replied to his assertions about how I have become “unhinged,” which led to a discussion of

Being Consistently Reformed, Talking With Muslims

James White, August 15, 2024, Baptism, Eastern Orthodoxy, Islam, Personal, The Dividing Line

Covered a lot of ground today. Started off mentioning this video on Eastern Orthodoxy, as well as this video on the communist infiltration of the West. Then we revisited how Reformed men should approach any topic, but in particular, the topic of the New Covenant, baptism, etc., in light of further comments made on last week’s debate with Jared Longshore.

Let’s Make Cyril Lucaris Great Again!

James White, June 28, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, The Dividing Line

Finally got around to having Jason Wallace join us to talk about this video he posted a while back on the fascinating topic of Cyril Lucaris, the Calvinist Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople. If you are encountering the claims of Orthodoxy, this is a program you will want to listen to! Enjoy!

An Unusual Monday Morning Dividing Line

James White, June 24, 2024, CBGM, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Islam, King James Onlyism, Misc, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Transinsanity, TROnlyism

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

Passion Translation, Nicene Creed, and a Boatload of Anathemas

James White, June 18, 2024, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, The Dividing Line

Briefly commented on a year old tweet from Mike Winger on the amazingly loony “Passion Translation,” then moved on to talk about the Nicene Creed and the Southern Baptist Convention, looking at some comments of David Allen. Next week we hope to be joined by Jason Wallace who produced a 37 minute video about Cyril Lucaris, so today we looked

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

James White, June 11, 2024, 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

Road Trip Dividing Line: Eric Holmberg’s Conversion Syndrome, Joel Beeke on the KJV

James White, November 29, 2023, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, King James Onlyism, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, Speaking Engagements, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, TROnlyism

After a little updating on the current trip we looked at an article from Eric Holmberg (I think it was from Facebook) and then looked over Joel Beeke’s 12 reasons to use the KJV.

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.

New Video on Eastern Orthodoxy, Biblicism is “Cultic,” Dale Tuggy States His Position

James White, July 25, 2023, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Unitarianism

Last Road Trip Dividing Line for the July, 2023 trip (only a matter of weeks till we head for Pennsylvania and then G3). Live stream failed us (I have no idea why!). Talked a bit about this new video on Eastern Orthodoxy from Jason Wallace up in Magna, Utah, discussed the assertion that biblicism is “cultic” (and the obvious need

A Nearly Two Hour Road Trip Dividing Line

James White, July 4, 2023, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism, Transinsanity, Unitarianism

Three major portions of today’s almost two hour program: first, reflections on the celebration of July 4th immediately after the Month of Prideful Rebellion. . Then, we review key statements made by Matthew Barrett, Todd Pruitt, and Carl Trueman on the last

What the Celebration of Perversity Tells Us, Then, Trent Horn and the Trajectory of Rome

James White, March 6, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Spent the first portion of the program discussing what the “drag queen” phenomenon tells us about our culture today before shifting to a completely different topic based upon the debate on sola scriptura between Gavin Ortlund and Trent Horn.

Apologizing for the Bible, Textual Critical Issues and the TR

James White, February 28, 2023, 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

Road Trip Dividing Line: Gay Mirage, Mass, Biblicism

James White, February 20, 2023, Christian Worldview, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Homosexuality, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, Speaking Engagements, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

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

Open Phones on the Dividing Line

James White, December 22, 2022, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, Speaking Engagements, The Dividing Line

Calls today on Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism and church history, Ambrose and transubstantiation, how to support Ukrainian believers, God’s law, and maintaining theological balance. Enjoy!

Open Zoom Calls Road Trip Dividing Line

James White, August 16, 2022, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Road Trip, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism

We managed to get through a number of excellent calls today on topics ranging from the canon to covenant theology to talking to folks who are being taught by the New Confessionalists, etc. with only one 30 second Internet drop (that, as far as we can see, was on Rich’s end, not mine!). Should be able to have another program

WHO Treaty then Church History Is a Bit Messy

James White, May 17, 2022, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Started off with the tremendous danger of the current push to establish a global “pandemic authority” by treaty that would basically (I know this sounds crazy but…it isn’t) made Bill Gate king of the world. Seriously, whether your three year old child would have to be injected with untested, dangerous potions would be decided by someone five thousand miles away
