Started off with a bit on the election, then tied this into the current developments in Rome with Francis making sure his legacy will continue to shift the direction of the Roman Church. Then addressed Joel Webbon’s recent webcast about the now infamous Holocaust meme, and related issues amongst the “Reformed” (that term is just about to collapse due to

Unusual Saturday program, but travel is that way. Thanked the local churches I ministered in on this trip, then talked a bit about Wednesday’s debate with Jared Longshore, and then finished up with a response to a denial of the imputation of the active and passive obedience of Christ in justification, along with providing a refutation of how that denial

SCOTUS Madness, Then Open Phones

, , Church Fathers, Debate, Eschatology, Open Phones, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line

Talked a bit about the insane responses to a common sense SCOTUS decision, then went to the phones, covering Ignatius and the Eucharist (here’s the video I mentioned), what to do when asked to leave a church over Calvinism, supralapsarianism and the divine decree, intinction, Jeremiah 31:33/Romans 2:15, and finally “intellectual dispensationalism.”

Christ is King, Yes, Yes He is!

, , Abortion, Eschatology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line

After a quick update on our travel issues/situation, we started to comment on the “Christ is King” controversy, digging down a bit into the theology and context of the statement and what it means. We also looked at some folks claiming “replacement theology” (it’s fulfillment theology, but they don’t want to view it fairly) is actually heretical. Then we played

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

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?”

, , 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.

Twenty five years worth (over 2,000 episodes). Pretty amazing stuff. Then we looked at a few comments from ol’ Steve Camp, a few more

So Rich was literally just poking around on Twitter when he stumbled across the “live” set up recently, so today was our first day to live-cast on Twitter. That was what we wanted to do all along, but obviously things are developing at Twitter and so we had to use Facebook (which drove me nuts). But, for as long as

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

A Starlink Dividing Line!

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

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
