James White, June 7, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Homosexuality, Islam, Pastoral Theology, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Well, surprise surprise, quite the amount of response to yesterday’s program, so we covered two topics we touched on yesterday, including further commentary on the Islamicize Me video series and on the Paige Patterson situation in the Southern Baptist Convention. But first, we looked at the issues raised by the Revoice Conference and the idea of “gay Christianity,” and considered

Quick Ministry Report from Around the World, the “First Century Mark” Fragment That Isn’t, the Mockumentary, and the SBC

James White, June 6, 2018, General Apologetics, Islam, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Gave a relatively quick report on my trip to London, Johannesburg, Lusaka, Loughborough, Glasgow, Leicester and Belfast, and then discussed some of what broke while I was gone. Looked at the publication of the “First Century Mark” fragment that turned out to be contemporaneous with P45. Then we needed to address the series of videos that have been posted of

A Dividing Line of Clarification

James White, May 15, 2018, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, Mormonism, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

We provided clarification on a number of points today, starting with Bruce Jenner’s reported “marriage” to a trans-gender “woman” 47 years his junior. Then we provided clarification on Mitt Romney’s ironic tweet about “religious bigots.” Next we provided clarification on an Islamic video accusing me of inconsistency regarding the Trinity and the fear of the Lord. But the majority of

A Little Bill Johnson, a Bunch of Islamic Material, and an Intro to the Ehrman/Licona Debate

James White, March 6, 2018, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Hebrew Israelism, Islam, Pauline Studies, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Took a little time to comment on my listening to some material on Bill Johnson (Bethel Church, Redding, CA) this morning at the start of the program, and then moved into a lengthy Islamic discussion, dealing with common misunderstandings on the topic of the atonement amongst Muslims, playing clips from the Wood/Ally debate, and a video from a Muslim in

Series to Begin Next Week, the Ebionites, and Open Phones on a 95 Minute Dividing Line

James White, March 1, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, Islam, King James Onlyism, Oneness Pentecostalism, Persecution, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized

Covered about half an hour of “topics” from the Ebionites to current discussions of “insanity,” and then we went to open phones with lots of questions on a wide variety of topics including the Trinity, Oneness, and two calls on textual variants (Romans 5:1, John 10:29). Here is the YouTube link: Live Video Stream The Dividing Line is on YouTube

Vines/McDowell Dialogue, Encouraging Podcast, Calls on Today’s Jumbo Edition of the Dividing Line

James White, February 27, 2018, Church History, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Homosexuality, Islam, Pauline Studies, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off with a few miscellaneous items, including a brief review of the Matthew Vines/Sean McDowell dialogue from a few weeks ago, a little reading on Basilides the early church gnostic heretic and his views, and then I played some portions from the Ex Nihilo podcast that the Hardings posted as an encouragement to me (which was much appreciated). Then

The Religion of Moloch Lives, Lizzie Schofield’s Review of G3 Debate, S&K Swings and Misses Yet Again

James White, February 1, 2018, Abortion, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Islam, Oneness Pentecostalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

A 90 minute edition of the DL today starting off looking at recent events primarily related to the Uber Sacrament of the Secularists, i.e., human child sacrifice, euphemistically called abortion. Then we considered a mainly negative review of my debate with Adnan Rashid offered by Lizzie Schofield. Finally we looked at the recent accusations brought by Jordan Hall relating to

Psalm 22: Michael Brown and James White Examine This Messianic Psalm in Light of Jewish and Muslim Polemics

James White, January 30, 2018, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Islam, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I am deeply thankful to Michael Brown for joining us yet again on a very, very busy day for him to discuss Psalm 22 in light of recent claims made by Muslim apologists, especially regarding v. 16 (21:17 LXX). If you have a deep interest in Messianic prophecy and wish to be prepared to discuss this text with both Jews

G3 Debate Report, Being Fair in Dealing with the Qur’an

James White, January 23, 2018, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Mormonism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Did a little under 100 minutes on the program today dealing with the debate with Adnan Rashid and then looking at Surah 3 and the allegation that I should not be witnessing to Muslims. We mentioned the printing of a tract I wrote decades ago, The Christian Message, which is now available from the folks at One Million Tracts. You can

Ijaz Ahmad and Corruption of Scripture, A False Dilemma for Christians, Thoughts on the Condemnation of Michael Brown

James White, January 9, 2018, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Spent a good deal of time playing the final portions of Ijaz Ahmad’s video on “the corruption of Scripture,” working through a lot of pretty in-dept stuff regarding the Greek Septuagint, etc. Then spent a bit of time looking at a supposed dilemma for Christians from Paul Williams, and finished off with about 50 minutes of thoughts on the brouhaha

2 John 11 Abused by Imbalanced Calvinists, the Death of LDS President Monson, Further Response to Ijaz Ahmad

James White, January 4, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Mormonism, Pastoral Theology, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off looking carefully at the text of 2 John 7-11 once again, this time as it has been abused by ostensibly Reformed folks. Then we looked at some of the shenanigans of the “only Calvinists are saved” brigade on line. Moved eventually to the death of LDS President Monson and the continued need to pray for God to pour

The Pope and the Lord’s Prayer, Slander & Keyboard, SJC, Zachariades & God’s Justice

James White, December 12, 2017, Christian Worldview, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off looking at Pope Francis and “lead us not into temptation.” Then had to look at Slander and Keyboard (the group formerly known as Pulpit & Pen, sort of like the artist formerly known as Prince…or Purple something, I could never figure that part out) as well as some wild eyed “bigotry in the name of Christianity is fine

Unanticipated Discussion of CBGM and P45, Then Beginning of a Review of Ijaz Ahmad’s Video on OT/NT “Corruption”

James White, December 7, 2017, Church History, General Apologetics, Islam, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

I started off thinking I’d mainly respond to Ijaz Ahmad’s video today and then open the phones, but alas, I mentioned a little bit about the Coherence Based Genealogical Method in regards to some volumes of the TuT series (Text und Textwert) that had just arrived today and people started asking questions and I ended up saying a LOT more

Beyond Mega Length Edition of the DL: Textual Critical Topics, Islamic Topics, Response to Theodore Zachariades

Went two hours and eleven minutes today (sorry!), but had a lot to cover. Too many topics to list, but basically a lot on the new Tyndale House Greek New Testament, textual critical topics, Muslim apologetics issues, the Qur’an, and then responses to Dr. Theodore Zachariades on the topic of the decree of God and the will of man, i.e.,

South African Controversy and Debate, and More Reformation History

James White, October 26, 2017, Church History, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Took a look at a little controversy down in South Africa about a debate between Christian Jonathan McLatchie and Yusuf Ismail on whether the Trinity is consistent with the Old Testament revelation of God’s nature. Played a few minutes of Yusuf’s rebuttal and engaged his arguments. Then in the last fifteen minutes of the program we went back to our

Washington Conference, JefftheGK and IFD, the Lollards

James White, October 17, 2017, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Went straight to the office from the airport upon my return from Dallas to do the program today. Was joined by Mike O’Fallon of the Sovereign Alliance at the top of the hour, talking about the tour to Germany a few weeks ago, and about the upcoming Washington Summit he is organizing. Then we moved into a lengthy review and

Horrible Arguments for the Roman Priesthood, Did Jesus Say the I Am Statements?

James White, October 4, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off covering a Catholic Answers article trying to find “clues” to the Roman priesthood in the Bible. Then moved on to the main topic, that being the discussion of whether Jesus said the “I am” statements as per the Craig Evans/Bart Ehrman discussion, and Mike Licona’s commentary thereon last week. Resulted in an in-depth discussion of inspiration especially in

Worship in Spirit and Truth, Totalitarianism, Robert Spencer Retreads

James White, September 12, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off the DL today with a review of some important thoughts from John 4, then looked a bit at the continued advance of totalitarianism. But spent most of our time looking at today’s Jihad Watch article re-treading the Yasir Qadhi story. Robert Spencer shows us once again the difference between approaching Islam from a worldly perspective or from the

Another Mega DL! Lots of Topics, Including P&P, Proud of Multiple Abortions, Muslim Arguments, KJV Onlyism

James White, September 7, 2017, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, King James Onlyism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized

Hard to even remember the number of topics we covered today! Looked at a tweet from P&P about my being “childish,” looked at a new contributor to WorldView Weekend who is just repeating the same old, oft-refuted errors, listened to William Lane Craig misrepresent Calvinists (again), played the disgusting clip of an actress proud of her multiple abortions, looked at

Steve Camp on BTWN: Reviewed and Refuted

James White, September 1, 2017, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Theology Matters

Took the time to play portions of Steve Camp’s appearance on The Bible Thumping Wingnut and provided a rather full response to his arguments, or, in most cases, non-arguments regarding ministry to Muslims, apologetics, gospel presentation, etc. IF YOU ARE TIRED OF THIS TOPIC, SKIP THIS EPISODE. But there are some pretty important issues covered here. Here is the YouTube

Report on Trip to Birmingham, South Africa, and London, Along with More

James White, August 29, 2017, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Personal, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Covered my two weeks overseas with lots of side-trips and commentary on related issues, and toward the end focused upon some issues that came up in my debate with Zakir Hussein on the crucifixion, especially John 17:5 and Psalm 22:16. Also showed off a new Bible, a Polish translation of The Roman Catholic Controversy, my Bates hat from London, and the

Brannon Howse: When You Combine Abject Dishonesty, Conspiratorialism, and Sub-Biblical Theology

James White, August 11, 2017, Christian Worldview, Islam, Personal, Reformed Apologetics, Simply Silly, Uncategorized

So Brannon Howse is busy going after men who used to be on his network. It’s his way or the highway, obviously, and as with so many, either you are for me, or you are against me. There’s no adiaphora in Howse’s world. It is all black and white, always. Today Justin Peters spoke at the conference going on back

Meme Day on the Dividing Line

James White, August 7, 2017, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Showed a bunch of memes today and interacted with them, mainly on Islamic issues. Then read two brief articles from Bassam Zawadi, also from Facebook, and interacted with them. Wide variety of topics, actually, hopefully helpful to more than just those who engage in ministry to Muslims. Enjoy! I also mentioned toward the end of the program the sermon I

Just Can’t Argue with the Video

James White, August 4, 2017, General Apologetics, Islam, Personal, Reformed Apologetics

My sincere thanks to Justin Bullington for putting together this short video that simply decimates the false narrative spun by Steve Camp, Janet Mefferd, Brannon Howse, and their followers. Needed to be done, now here it is. Putting the actual words right next to the misrepresentations and spin is VERY effective—at least for those with ears to hear, anyway. Update

Steve Camp on the Janet Mefferd Show: Review and Refutation

James White, August 3, 2017, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

I’ve never done this before, but these two graphics say almost all that needs to be said. Nearly two hours of interaction with the claims and statements of Steve Camp and Janet Mefferd from Monday’s JM show. Here is the YouTube link:

A Clarification on the Trinity for a Muslim/Brannon Howse on the Hagmann Report

James White, August 2, 2017, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

For the first 45 minutes we played a video from a Muslim asking a question about the Trinity based upon how the Holy Spirit “overshadowed” Mary. Since he asked for Christians to explain the passage, we did! Then we moved to last night’s Hagmann Report which, in the first hour, featured Brannon Howse. Here is the YouTube link:

A Scriptural Case for the Deity of Christ/Interaction with a Proposal for the Government to “Study” Islam

James White, July 20, 2017, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Islam, Pauline Studies, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Only an hour today, but the first half was focused on the deity of Christ (interrupted by failing light strips in the studio!) and the second was focused upon a GOP proposal to identify “peaceful teaching Muslims” from those preaching violence. Basically, I really don’t want the government determining good and bad theology for anyone, because while the GOP may be

William Lane Craig on Presuppositionalism, More on the White/Howse (Get It?) Controversy

James White, July 18, 2017, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Simply had to deal with William Lane Craig’s review of a debate on apologetic methodology at the start—we will be waiting further installments as this conversation continues. Then I moved on to comment on the Janet Mefferd Show episode that aired Monday, Brannon Howse’s turning me over to Satan, etc. and etc. Comments on 2 John 7-11 as well. A
