My apologies for how long it took to get this video up. Had a lot of technical problems, and though it is only 16 minutes in length, it took many hours to put together.
In 2004 (see 8/19 & 8/24) I put together a conference that included Dr. White and Dr. Stephen J. Nichols as the speakers. The audio for this conference has never been online. Well, it is now, at least some of it. I have posted to Sermon Audio the two lectures by Stephen Nichols dealing with Jonathan Edwards and his apologetic.
So says Bart Ehrman when you challenge his highly challengeable theological conclusions and claims. Ehrman’s new anti-Christian book, Jesus, Interrupted: Revealing the Hidden Contradictions in the Bible (and Why We Don’t Know About Them), is lying on my desk, having just arrived. I flipped the book open to the back and my eyes fell upon this statement: There is not
There is a truth divide in the realm of apologetics. I refer to the attitude one has toward truth, and how consistently one seeks to live in light of one’s own confession of fidelity to truth itself. The first is found in the continued ramblings of William Albrecht, a Roman Catholic layman “apologist.” It is hard to take William seriously,
Tired of the Ehrman topic? So are Christian college students as they sit in their classrooms, believe me. I mentioned on the DL yesterday one of the young students who comes into our channel complaining that her textbook was written by…Bart Ehrman. And this evening I was appraised of the release in less than a month of a new book
Those interested in this subject (and what Christian isn’t), may want to take a look at two of the leading articles in the recent edition of the New Horizons magazine: Are You Ready to Give a Reason?, by Gary W. Davenport. The Church’s Evangelistic Mission, by L. Anthony Curto. The article by Dr. Curto is a (very) condensed version of
Bart Ehrman teaches his students that Mark presents a very different portrayal of Jesus’ arrest and crucifixion than Luke, or John. John Dominic Crossan says the same thing. As common as the claim is, does the text back it up? In no way. Here is the Sunday morning sermon at PRBC from December 28, 2008 from Mark 14 and 15.
Dr. White and Alpha and Omega Ministries did a lot of things this year. I’d like to focus on one of the most tangible things: debates. By my count, Dr. White engaged in thirteen public, moderated debates so far this year (no more are planned, that I know of): (Format is: Opponent, Topic, Date, and Location) 1. Nadir Ahmed, “Can
I spoke on “Apologetics Without Apology” at Trinity Road Chapel in London on November 15th. I worked out of 1 Peter 3:15, and then we took questions. It was a great time, and may be useful to those who are just being introduced to the topic of apologetics. It also contains exhortations for us old-timers in the field as well.
Christopher Hitchens and Doug Wilson debated on the campus of Westminster Theological Seminary (East) on October 30, 2008. The debate was moderated by Dr. Scott Oliphint, professor of apologetics at WTS. The debate can be heard by clicking here. The debate is the 12th item on the list.
Atheist John Loftus has the following argument against Christianity. I don’t bring it up because Loftus is any kind of a genius of argumentation, but because we see this same argument in various forms from various atheists. Here is the argument: If God is perfectly good, all knowing, and all powerful, then the issue of why there is so much
SillyBrit1 sent me a link to this article on the possible finding of the most ancient example of Hebrew thus far known. It will be interesting to see if this find pans out and is established by further research.
Thanks be to the Lord, we have completed arrangements for the debates in London (still a few other items to arrange, but the major stuff is done). I am providing it as quickly as possible: Tuesday, November 11th 7:30PM “Does Belief in the Trinity Necessitate Shirk?” Adnan Rashid vs. James White Location: Westbourne Park Baptist Church, Porchester Rd, London, W2
Back in March of 2007 on The Dividing Line (here is the program) I addressed the dialogue that took place between Ergun Caner of Liberty University and the so-called “Rational Response Squad.” I had listened to the encounter while riding, and I wanted to make some comments not so much on Caner’s replies but on some of the claims made
I just received an e-mail that quoted Rook Hawkins of the “Rational Response Squad” as saying the following: “RationalResponders.com: White was supposed to contact me ages ago about a debate and he chickened out.” I would like to make it clear that Mr. Hawkins has never contacted me about a debate, hence, I can not “chicken out” of a debate
Chris Arnzen hosts the daily radio show, Iron Sharpens Iron. Each day, Chris presents an hour long interview on topics that are important to Christians: Roman Catholicism “How do you know your private interpretation of the Bible is correct over against the private interpretation of every other denomination?” “How can you be certain that you are in the truth since
Some might wonder how the above names fit together. Simple enough. These men and some of their views are addressed in the new editions of the Ordained Servant and New Horizons magazines (productions of the Orthodox Presbyterian Church). Click here to check out either one. Two articles in particular that I would point out are: The Witness of Scripture to
The audio for the Santa Fe Conference on Biblical Discernment, recently mentioned here, is now available online for you to download. Click here to listen to the following: “Reliability of the New Testament Documents”, Dr. James White “Examining Mormon Proof Texts”, Bill McKeever “FAQ About the Faith Movement”, Rob Bowman “Reasoning From the Scriptures with the Jehovah’s Witnesses”, Ron Rhodes
Here is part 2 of the debate from 1999 on the Trinity.
While we have made this debate available in audio format for almost a decade, this is the first time we’ve made it available in video format. The quality is far below our normal video recording (single video camera, poor lighting, etc.), but it is still usable. In fact, you can see the text on the screen as I used PowerPoint
This week marks the two year anniversary of Chris Arnzen’s Iron Sharpens Iron radio show. Congratulations Chris! To commemorate this longevity, Chris invited back his very first guest, Dr. James White. Dr. White addresed the theme, “Pulpit Crimes: The Criminal Mishandling of God’s Word.” Other recent shows addressed the topic of Islam. Chris had a two day debate / discussion
The face of apologetics is changing (I should know, I’ve watched Dr. White’s beard grow with my own two eyes). As a generation that is being taught it is impossible to know anything for certain, one of the most recent attacks upon Christianity has been launched, packaged, and peddled to my peers brilliantly.If you are unaware of the movie Zeitgeist,
I announced a few weeks ago plans to get to London in November for some exciting debates, preaching, and even an opportunity to get to Speaker’s Corner. Since I am in essence inviting myself, rather than responding to an invitation from the kind brothers and sisters in London, I truly want to make sure that they are in no way
Though this video is a little longer than normal (20 minutes), you will note that after examining Isaiah 29, I provide some video from a Speaker’s Corner debate that should be most interesting to our readers.
One of the regular questions I receive from believers is, “Where do I find resources to do the kind of study I need to do to answer in-depth apologetic questions?” With the “data fog” we exist in today (i.e., tons and tons of information, so much so that we struggle to keep up with it all), it can be difficult
···I am in Houston speaking for Grace Reformed Baptist Church (what a great fellowship!). I decided to use my little Casio Exilim to record the sessions now that I can post videos longer than 10:59 on YouTube. So far the first two nights are available, and I will be posting the next two evenings as time allows. I have placed
Today on Iron Sharpens Iron, Chris Arnzen will be interviewing Ravi Zacharias, internationally renowned Evangelical Christian apologist, author, radio evangelist and founder and chairman of the board of Ravi Zacharias International Ministries. He will address the theme of his book, New Birth or Rebirth? Jesus Talks with Krishna. Listen to the show live today, 3 – 4 P.M. (Eastern Standard
