Last Road Trip DL for 2024 coming from Holbrook, Arizona this evening. Started off looking at Joel Webbon’s defense both of “anons” and using them to mock people “right off X,” naming Owen Strachan as an example. Then we discussed the encounter between Wes Huff, a Christian scholar and apologist, and Billy Carson, an Internet “influencer” of some kind, and

Mishnah, Talmud, and the Ugly Rise of Side-B Nazism in 2024

, , Church Fathers, Church History, Islam, Misc, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Didn’t pull any punches today, folks. When the Nazis come after you it is time to shoot straight in return. Took on some nasty players today, but had to provide background information on, for example, the origination of the Mishnah, Gemara, and Talmud, etc. Hopefully useful to everyone, and a warning for those trying to “sneak in” to the church

, , Church History, Islam, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Couldn’t avoid a few brief comments on the Steve Lawson issue that came to light today at the start of the program. Then I read through an eleven tweet thread written by Samuel Costner back on 8/31 regarding the Crusaders and my supposedly abandoning the younger generation by refusing to go along with the lionization of these Roman Catholic military

Being Consistently Reformed, Talking With Muslims

, , 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.

Started off with details about my upcoming debate with Tim Barber here in Colorado (Open Theism), the conference the next day, preaching on Sunday, and next week’s debate with Jared Longshore.

We moved to Jonathan Merritt’s article

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

Rutgers’ Racist Professor, More Muhammed Hijab, and the Neo-Socinian Nonsense Again

, , Debate, Islam, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Back in Phoenix in our regular studio, so we looked briefly at the racist Rutgers professor and “white folks,” then we spent about twenty minutes responding to more of Muhammed Hijab’s opening statement against the Trinity, and then listened to a few minutes of the “Coffee House Sessions” webcast on the modern state of Reformed Baptist and Robert Briggs’ accusation

, , Debate, Eschatology, Islam, Personal, Simply Silly, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized, Unitarianism

Caught up on a few items on a special DL today. Read through a long message from Twitter that is a good warning about how some eschatologies can become downright dangerous, and then moved back to reviewing aspects of Muhammed Hijab’s opening remarks in the Trinity/Tawhid debate.

Jumbo edition of the program, basically two 45 minute segments.

In the second I started playing Muhammad Hijab’s opening comments from a 2018

, , Debate, Godly Disciplines, Islam, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Given the continuing conflict in the Middle East, we looked at the comments from the head of Hamas, looked at the concept of “the world at war” and “the world at peace,” and then worked through a short clip of a Muslim debater arguing against the clarity of the Christian Scriptures. Then finished with a response to the explosion of

Shortened Road Trip DL, Response to Andrew Tate Conversion

, , Islam, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Baptist Issues, Road Trip, The Dividing Line, Thomism

Didn’t go quite a full hour today as I mainly interacted with the clip of Zuby interviewing Andrew Tate and his conversion to Islam. Also commented a bit on the Netherlands cracking down on farmers (enjoy the coming famines all due to the climate hoax being used as a political baseball bat) and an amazing tweet from an RB pastor.

Well, let me tell you, Rich is one happy camper. He got the bright idea today, really only a few hours before we started, to use Zoom to allow folks to call in to the program today. And…it worked.

No, Pete Buttigieg does not have a husband, and no, he and that other guy cannot become parents. And that embarrassing situation is directly connected to the fall of Kabul, and we explained by at the start of the program today. Then we talked vaccine mandates and what they are really all about, before jumping back into Surah 4:171 and

The Episode to Treat Insomnia

, , Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Yeah, I know. I did warn everyone beforehand saying this would be a seminary-level program, and, well, it was. Just a little discussion of today’s journey and where I am before getting into Gregory’s confession of faith once again. For some reason I really felt like I need to provide a lot of background information today, so, I did. After

Another Road Trip DL

Talked a little about the trip so far (including my ascent of Mt. Evans this morning), then noted the continued destruction of the Constitution in the United States by the current Regime, and then moved to an in-depth discussion of Gregory of Nyssa’s concluding sentences in his brief epistle, “On Not Three Gods,” once again allowing us to address the

Road Trip Dividing Line #1!

I can’t tell you how long I’ve been dreaming about today! I am on day #1 of 22 on the road. Today was a big, big test, with some of the longest, steepest climbs in all of my trip. I did not know, until today, if our truck/5th wheel combination would handle today (the unit would be heavy due to

A Helpful Discussion with the Muslim Metaphysician, Jake Brancatella

, , Islam, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Had an enjoyable conversation with Jake Brancatella, “the Muslim Metaphysician” on his conversion to Islam, his background, his “LPT” argument (Logical Problem with the Trinity), and much more. Jake is discussing aspects of the Trinity and Christology that most Christians don’t know about (let alone almost all Muslims) so you might just learn a few things yourself!

Covered a wide range of topics today. Started off with Tim Keller’s tweets regarding voting and abortion, then moved into Anthony Bradley’s assertion that the Puritans would be alt-right racists in 2020. Talked a little about the CDC’s promoting critical race theory, and then read an article by a “former Christian” feeding into the panic from HuffPo. Finished off (starting

Update/Addition to Bostock Decision Commentary, BLM’s Marxist Abuse of Language, Qur’anic Verbs

, , Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Islam, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line

I forgot to address the presuppositional worldview issue relating to the Bostock decision on Tuesday, so I wanted to touch upon that, and then we transitioned into the play on words that BLM is using to promote Marxism under the guise of a sentence that actually only makes sense within the Christian worldview anyway. Then transitioned into a discussion of

A Program for Muslims on the Textual History of the Qur’an

, , Islam, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, TROnlyism

I actually spent a few minutes at the start to acknowledge the ground-shaking “let’s make Obergefell look small time” absurdity that came forth from Neil Gorsuch and the Supreme Court this morning, but only to say that we would focus upon that tomorrow. The rest of the program (from about seven minutes in as I recall) is addressed to my

, , Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Islam, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line

Started off with a few minutes discussing the reality that a lot of us are facing: how do you have any sense of “normal” anymore when the future looks to troubled, so difficult? Why even bother talking about theology during a revolution? Well, because Christians have done that for a very long time, actually. So, a few words of encouragement

, , Exegesis, Islam, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

About half an hour before the program started I saw a question raised by Zakir Hussain, a Muslim apologist, so I spent the first half hour in Jude looking at the context and the manuscript evidence so as to answer the objection/question. Then we looked at the subject of “Deepfakes” and the law of God, focusing on cosmic justice, and

Four Calls and then Overview of Issues in Church History

, , Church Fathers, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Mormonism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

We took four calls to start the show, and I was so verbose and long-winded that that took us 55 minutes. So much for brevity on my part! The calls were on federal headship and Romans 5, “not My will but Yours” in Luke 22 (esp. as it relates to Oneness theology), Bahnsen vs. Sproul debate, and using presuppositional apologetics
