I finished six hours of lecture and immediately set up to do a DL in the lovely library area of Grace Bible Theological Seminary and was kindly joined by President Jeffrey Johnson and by Provost Owen Strachan to talk theology and a little history as well!
We did the program from the Mobile Command Center today as a means of testing things out before I hit the road this weekend. I also wanted to test a touch screen we have obtained that should allow me to do mot of what I do on the Flip Board in the Big Studio, but while traveling. And it worked!
So we webcast on two platforms now: YouTube and Odysee. We have freedom to talk about vaccines, Covid, mandates, and the outrageous behavior of the left, while on Odysee, but not on YouTube, which censors anyone who would talk about those things from the “wrong” viewpoint. This means I no longer really have the freedom to do a few stories
Covered a wide variety of topics, starting off with a little information about our next trip (which you can help with here if you feel led to do so!) and then diving into current events focusing upon the rise of the Culture of Death. We looked at the new PCUSA “Climate” hymn, at the explosion of celebrations of perversity, the
The second evening of the mini Conference on the solas is just 90 minutes away so we snuck a quick program from the AO Mobile Command in talking about the trip, what’s coming up at G3 and elsewhere, and responding to Soteriology 101’s paid advertising campaign looking to get “converts from Calvinism.” I wandered all over the landscape, to be
I do not know how to title a wide ranging program like today’s! We discussed the Buttigieg adoption scandal, Jory Micah’s racism, the amazing crash of Ivermectin from 2015 Nobel Prize winning drug to 2021 horse-dewormer, and then a lengthy discussion of medical exemptions, including the statement Apologia Church has produced on the topic. I also read through an attack
Went long today, so get a deep seat in the proverbial saddle! Spent quite some time on the Max Lucado debacle wherein he apologizes for having spoken the truth 17 years ago—a truth that is now “hurtful.” Then we moved on to the Ravi Zacharias scandal and developments therein. Finally I finished up with about half an hour on last
Did a thorough review of a United Methodist woman’s claims about the Bible and homosexuality, working through key texts. Then listened to what Dr. MacArthur said about postmillenialism and “losing down here,” and offered a response. Hope we get to do another program, but must admit, we said more than enough on this one program to have us removed in
I had intended to read through the entirety of John Adams’ statement from 1798 regarding the Constitution yesterday, but events made it wiser to wait till today. We read through Adams and basically, for an hour, discussed the true foundational issues driving the cultural revolution that is destroying the West and leading us into a global socialist disaster. We expose
Got your attention, didn’t it? Well, I did start off introducing Grogu, one of my Christmas presents, but that’s just my way of saying we covered so many topics today I could not come up with a title that would do them justice. So we did a lot of Christian worldview analysis (am I using that phrase correctly?) today looking
Started off with a little Christmas story relating to my new sweater (wait till you see it!), then a little discussion of the speed at which the world has changed in 2020, then finishing up with a discussion of the textual variant found in the Greek Septuagint at Isaiah 9:6.
We covered the waterfront today to be sure, looking at all sorts of topics from Twitter and other sources, statements from seminary professors, people promoting the woke church, you name it. 90 minutes of Christian worldview application, starting off with a little jingle from John Cooper about “Woke Christmas.”
Started off with a short discussion of how I will be approaching the series on baptism I have begun preaching at Apologia Church, then moved into a whole series of recent events that I’ve been collecting that all point to the impact of the secular worldview and the rejection of the Christian view of man in the ongoing push for
Jumbo edition today at ninety minutes covering some of the thoughts of C.S. Lewis on the coming technocracy, then finally getting back to Colossians 1 and “reconciliation” related to the atonement debate between Matt Slick and Sam Shamoun, and finishing up with a discussion of the beauty and order of God’s creation.
Started with brief comments on last week and my little adventure at high altitude on Mt. Lemmon in Tucson, and then moved into Psalm 82, looking at its message as the foundation for considering the legacy of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. We then made application regarding the current controversy over the Supreme Court, and then talked about events in Moscow,
Started off with a brief clip from the now famous Todd White sermon from two days ago, then talked a bit about Timothy Cho’s tweets, one on the nuclear family, the other on face masks. I spent a few minutes going over my arguments on the mask mandates in response. Briefly talked about a student kicked out of student government
Started off with two videos and a little report from the weekend (including my having the awesome honor of baptizing two of my granddaughters, Kadence and Clementine). Then I showed off my new Jeffrey Rice/PTL LXX set and talked about this coming Sunday’s sermon at Apologia on compatibilism. Eventually we made it around to the subject of Mormonism and modifications
Meandered around a bit today touching on the fact that Rich is French, that “Parler” should probably be pronounced with the French pronunciation (and yes, I have joined Parler, @Eleutheros), that the Supreme Court declining to give an injunction in California, while disappointing, isn’t the end of the world, and some other stuff about the current melt-down in the US.
We started off with four phone calls on various topics from around the country, and then listened to some comments from Leighton Flowers insisting that I never use unbiased sources in my response to Ken Wilson. Then we had a little church history discussion before signing off for the week. About 84 minutes or so.
Had some fun with a new video from Gene Kim, played a new RFG intro, looked a little at Steven Anderson and the TRTrads, delving into issues of textual criticism, the transmission of the text, etc. Then for the last 20 minutes or so transitioned into an important discussion about the supernatural and the life of the Bible-believing, sola scriptura
Spent some time looking at Joshua Harris’ swing into the LGBTQ world, then looked at issues of religious freedom, critical theory, and that whole area of rapid development. Then I got into the Founders Trailer for “By What Standard,” developments since the program from Colorado, my complete face-plant error in not knowing any of the relevant background (or players), what
συνευδοκέω is a Greek term that means “to agree with, give approval to.” It is found in the final verse of Romans 1 where Paul describes the final state of human sin, one in which mankind, knowing the just judgment of God against sin, not only still engaged in it, but “gives hearty approval” to those who join with them in
Started out with a brief study on Matthew 28:19-20 and the incredible words of Jesus, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.” Do we really believe that? It matters. Then I looked at the plague of immaturity in Western culture, tying together three different threads in current events. Then I briefly looked at an RNS
The news is filled with stories of the world expressing its hatred toward the faith and its express intention to take away the liberties and freedoms of anyone who will not bow the knee to Caesar (in our day, celebrate homosexuality, profane marriage, admit that women are men and men are women, abuse children, and, of course, murder children in
Took the whole program to review 2017 and consider a little bit about trends and things to consider for the future. UPDATE: the kind brothers and sisters at Sovereign rushed to get the video I noted about Fritz Erbe posted. Here is the link. Please share it with others! Here is the YouTube link: Live Video Stream The Dividing Line
Had more streaming problems today (yes, we are considering outside interference, but for now, there really isn’t much we can do about it) so we recorded the program again. Spent most of the time looking at Colossians 2:5-7 and what it means to be stable, grounded, disciplined, and what this means in our present context. Then we took a little
The fanatical dedication of the slaves of the Culture of Death should shame those of us who follow the Life with such little passion & zeal. ἐγὼ ἦλθον ἵνα ζωὴν ἔχωσιν καὶ περισσὸν ἔχωσιν.
Black Lives Matter! Police Lives Matter! All Lives Matter! And so goes the chanting, the memes, the blog posts, the Facebook arguments. And in the midst of it all, something fundamental is being missed. Sure, there is a great deal of emotion right now. The thin skin of civilization has been punctured and we are all aware (even if we
Don’t even know how to describe today other than, “I’ve wanted to address these issues for a long, long time. Let’s do it.” Many will disagree, but hopefully, will think hard about why, and that’s the important issue for me. Sounds a bit cryptic…just listen and you’ll figure it out! Here is the YouTube link:
Of course you can have religious freedom: as long as that freedom does not show itself outside of the confines of your cranium. It cannot influence your words, your acts or anything else that would remind me that I am a rebel against the God I know is there (but refuse to honor and worship). —The New Secular Fascist living
Words of Wisdom from Charles Haddon Spurgeon: There is no attribute more comforting to His children than that of God’s Sovereignty. Under the most adverse circumstances, in the most severe trials, they believe that Sovereignty has ordained their afflictions, that Sovereignty overrules them, and that Sovereignty will sanctify them all. There is nothing for which the children ought more earnestly
