James White, February 14, 2019, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Mormonism, Oneness Pentecostalism, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Began a rainy DL today with an interaction with a Twitter user (@BlackRepublican) regarding the foundational issues of the faith (once again—and one of the calls from our brother Kofi raised the issue again later), and then moved on to a brief interaction with Dr. David Bernard of the UPCI on the Trinity and soteriology (Bernard is the leading theologian

Russell Moore’s Statement, Steven Anderson on KJVOC Chapter 2

James White, February 12, 2019, Church History, Homosexuality, King James Onlyism, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Spent most of our time today examining Dr. Russell Moore’s statement on the Houston Chronicle article, and specifically what he identified as “wrongheaded” and “dangerous” ideas. This required us to revisit Rome’s doctrine of the priesthood and related issues. Then we responded to Steven Anderson’s second video wherein he reviews the second chapter of The King James Only Controversy. 75 minutes.

The Color of Compromise, Steven Anderson Continued, Open Phones

James White, February 7, 2019, Abortion, CBGM, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Iglesia Ni Christo, King James Onlyism, Pauline Studies, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Took time to make some comments on Jemar Tisby’s new book, The Color of Compromise. Please note I forgot to read through a key paragraph initially, so after the open phones segment I read that paragraph and made some comments thereon (right at the end of the show). Then we finished up the relevant portions of Steven Anderson’s first video, and

An Ultra Mega Dividing Line (2.5 Hours) Covering…A Ton

James White, February 5, 2019, Abortion, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Islam, King James Onlyism, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Started off the program thanking my hosts in Russia for a wonderful time there. Then we looked at the document produced and signed by Pope Francis and the Grand Imam, Ahmed el-Tayeb, and commented on its actual content (unlike some articles that skipped that part and just went for the sensationalistic side). Then we commented on the left’s drive for

A Quiet DL (Because James Has Almost No Voice)

James White, January 10, 2019, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, King James Onlyism, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Had some technical issues so the live stream did not go very well today. Talked a bit about the trip to Owensboro and the upcoming G3 Conference. Then looked at a few texts on the biblical teaching on the world’s hatred of the Kingship of Jesus, then looked at the Netherlands and their strong secular move against Christian belief within

About My ERLC Donation Email

James White, December 30, 2018, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Racialism

I received an email soliciting donations for the Southern Baptist ERLC (The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission). I found it quite interesting. It was signed by Brent Leatherwood, “Director of Strategic Partnerships.” It was brief, and began with a paragraph noting how the ERLC had gone to the “next level of gospel ministry” in 2018. There were three ways in

Catching Up on Recent Events Before Leaving Town

James White, November 28, 2018, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Pastoral Theology, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line

Caught up on a number of articles I had saved before I leave tomorrow for St. Charles and other locations (see the banner ads for details). Right before the program started Dr. Michael Brown published an article about Twitter’s banning (ready for this?) “deadnaming.” Yeah. Deadnaming. That’s like when you call Bruce Jenner…Bruce Jenner instead of “Caitlyn.” So, in other

Beth Moore’s Racist Library and Open Phones

James White, November 21, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Started off with a report on our dear brother Jeff Durbin’s current condition after a medical issue last evening. Then we looked at a comment from Beth Moore about how you could, I guess, make your library more “inclusive” by considering the color of the skin of the author. You can guess what I said about that. Then we went

Voting, Racialism, TGC Article, Chesterton’s Romanism in a Jumbo DL

James White, November 6, 2018, Abortion, Atheism, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Told the story of my voting experience today and talked a little bit about worldview implications at the start, and then turned to a Jemar Tisby series of statements attempting to parallel racial justice issues with the Pharisees and Jesus’ condemnation in Matthew 23. Then we moved to Sam Allberry’s article at TGC on the Sexual Revolution, and finished up

Bad Arguments Galore: Catholic Answers Against Calvinism, Thabiti Anyabwile On “Silence”

James White, October 29, 2018, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off looking at different kinds of evidence for Reformed theology, moving into a review of a full article posted by Catholic Answers against “Calvinism.” Then moved into the recent exchange between myself and Thabiti Anyabwile regarding his false accusation that myself and others were “silent” about recent events (pipe bomber, shooting in Louisville, Pittsburgh synagogue shooting) due to “white

Brandan Robertson on the Death of Christianity, Jared Wilson and Galatians 2, Open Phones with Great Calls!

James White, October 25, 2018, Atheism, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line

Started off briefly reminding folks that A&O is a ministry that depends on individuals for our continued support. Also mentioned that we have a travel fund that allows me to get to all the places I go and minister to many who would not be able to bring me in otherwise. Then we looked at an article Brandan Robertson posted

Is Galatians 2 Relevant to Modern Racial Theory? Michael Heiser and ANE, Brandan Robertson’s Apostacy

James White, October 22, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Pauline Studies, Racialism, The Dividing Line

Looked at Jared C. Wilson’s comments about Galatians 2 and the subject of race, as well as Duke Kwon’s citation of the same text, by looking carefully at Galatians 2 itself in its context. The social justice attempt to read the NT as a social justice document is indeed troubling, especially since Wilson is very much a part of Midwestern’s

Dr. Mason’s The Woke Church’s Misrepresentation, Open Phones

James White, October 18, 2018, Atheism, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Islam, Pastoral Theology, Pauline Studies, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with a rebuttal of the misrepresentation published by Dr. Eric Mason in his new book (endorsed by many Reformed leaders) regarding yours truly and the May 11th meme I posted that insists that there is no room for “black spaces” or “white spaces” at the Lord’s Table, but only room for a singular focus upon Christ. This led

Catching Up on Events Since Travels to Scotland and Israel: Russell Moore, Brandi Miller, and Andy Stanley

James White, October 16, 2018, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Talked a bit about my trip to Scotland and Israel, and then moved into listening to Russell Moore’s comments on the Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel, listened to Brandi Miller at Reunion2018 illustrating everything we have been warning about with clarity, and then finished up by looking a bit at Ed Stetzer’s interview of Andy Stanley. Just over

Biblical Law and Justice, Tim Keller on SJ&G, 90 Minutes of Biblical Discussion of Presuppositionalism

James White, September 25, 2018, Atheism, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with a current-event driven discussion of God’s law regarding false witnesses and the like, and followed this up with playing Tim Keller’s comments about the Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel, interacting therewith. Then, for the last 90 minutes, we walked through Romans 1, Colossians 1, and 1 Corinthians 1, as the biblical foundation for our utilization

President Reagan’s Faith, Interaction with Dr. Albert Mohler, Brief Comments on Justice

James White, September 18, 2018, Christian Worldview, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line

Started off expressing thanks for the recently discovered letter President Ronald Reagan sent to his father-in-law shortly before his father-in-law’s death in which Reagan gave a clear call to faith in Jesus as the only way of salvation. Then I moved to interact with and respond to some of the comments made by Dr. Albert Mohler of The Southern Seminary

China’s Totalitarianism, Union Theological Seminary Invites You to Apostacy, 1 Timothy 6

James White, September 12, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, Offense, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Simply Silly, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Yes, I know, I said open phones, but I forgot to address the developments in China yesterday even though it was the first thing on my list. And then I ran across Union Theological Seminary’s invitation to apostasy, and I really needed to work through that as well. Read a little bit from a Brannon Howse show that will make

9/11, Accreditation, Social Justice, Jemar Tisby

James White, September 11, 2018, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Offense, Persecution, Racialism, The Dividing Line

Covered a wide variety of things today from the 9-11 remembrances to the use of accreditation to crush Christian education in the West to various discussions of the social justice issue from a number of specifics (especially from articles by Douglas Wilson and Samuel Sey). Finished up looking at Jemar Tisby’s article wherein he exhorts people to “avoid” people like

A Response to Dr. Raymond Chang

James White, September 10, 2018, Racialism

Raymond Chang has written a thread in social media in response to our Statement that is helpful—in the sense of illustrating how worldview presuppositions impact reading and communication. The thread begins with the intended conclusion, that which Dr. Chang is wanting to communicate to his readers: if you do not stand with the social justice movement, with those who are

Avoid the Signers of the Statement Says One Avoiding Its Arguments

James White, September 6, 2018, Racialism

Jemar Tisby, head of the blog formerly known as RAAN, has suggested, in an article run on the Religion News Service (RNS) site, that those of us involved in writing the Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel should be “avoided.” Those are his words. I like quotes, so here we go: I’m tempted to refute the recent statement on

A Response to Union Theological Seminary and Pastor Ryan King from London on the Social Justice and the Gospel Statement

James White, September 5, 2018, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Racialism, The Dividing Line

Wanted to get a second program in this week as I leave tomorrow for ministry in Florida (including the debate on homosexuality). Was going to open the phones but instead ended up responding to two articles in rebuttal to the Statement, first from Union Theological Seminary, the second from a Reformed Baptist pastor in London, pastor Ryan Burton King. Hopefully

The Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel: Background, Exegesis, Application

James White, September 4, 2018, Exegesis, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line

Given that The Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel was released today, I dedicated the program to the topic, the background of the statement, etc. I also took time to provide some biblical reasoning from Revelation 5 and Ephesians 2, and then made application to social media statements that illustrate the corrosive effects of this movement within the church.

Romans 15:13, 1 Tim 4, Heb 7:24 and ἀπαράβατον, Church History without Racial Quotas

James White, August 28, 2018, Church History, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Mormonism, Pauline Studies, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off with a lengthy discussion of the great text in Romans 15:13, then moved on to 1 Timothy 4:1-3 in light of the current situation in Rome. Then looked very closely at the meaning of ἀπαράβατον at Hebrews 7:23-24 in light of a Mormon attempt to get around its meaning. Finally closed out with a few comments on the teaching

What I Actually Said on Yesterday’s Dividing Line

James White, August 24, 2018, Racialism

The bias with which certain people “hear” what is said by others is sometimes, well, glaring. So yesterday I talked about how a person would be “crushed” in a debate if they denied a particular theological statement. Some people just heard “crushed” and, in concert with so much of the thinking of the world today, assumed things that just were

Bill Mounce and John 3:16, Slamming TMU/TMS, More on “Color Blind,” then Open Phones with Good Calls

James White, August 23, 2018, Exegesis, Jehovah's Witnesses, Pauline Studies, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Looked at Bill Mounce’s article on “whoever” in John 3:16 (a second article, more recent than one I’ve addressed before), then moved on to the sad spectacle of Christians gleefully piling on TMS/TMU, including one graduate going after JM for daring to address the “social justice” controversy. Finished up a brief response regarding the real meaning of “color-blind theology,” what

The Issue IS Homosexuality, then Brad Mason on “Color Blind Theology”

James White, August 21, 2018, Homosexuality, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off with some important observations of the current scandal in the Roman Catholic Church (it IS about homosexuality) and then moved on to look at a comment from Dr. Anthony Bradley, finishing with a lengthy discussion of ethnicity in the church (it is being discussed a lot these days!) in light of Brad Mason’s article against “color blind theology.”

Current Events and Controversies Followed by Radio Free Geneva!

James White, August 16, 2018, Exegesis, Racialism, Radio Free Geneva, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Did thirty minutes on current events (the ethnicity discussion mainly) before firing up the Radio Free Geneva theme and tackling two videos, one from Greg Boyd, and the other from Kevin Thompson, both aimed at refuting Calvinism. Boyd’s was the general discussion, Thompson pretended that Reformed exegetes ignore the phrase “in him” at Ephesians 1:4. We debunked that claim. Here

Gorgeous Goatskin Greek New Testaments, 3 Mormons, Open Phones

James White, August 14, 2018, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Mormonism, Personal, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off showing off my new Nestle-Aland 28th Edition Large Print Greek New Testament as rebound in gorgeous turquoise Italian goatskin by Post Tenebras Lux Bible Rebinding, run by Jeffrey Rice. I had Jeffrey call in and talk with me about his work. Now, I know some will think I am just causing everyone else to covet, but, I know

The Revoice Conference on Crosspolitic Then Open Phones from Evergreen, Colorado

James White, July 16, 2018, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off commenting on the Crosspolitic.com interview with Greg Johnson, pastor of the PCA church hosting the Revoice Conference this weekend. Then we started taking calls on topics such as polygamy, the canon of the Old Testament, how to leave a church, and finishing with a call from Dino in Sri Lanka on the subject of Roman Catholicism. Here is

A Quick, (Audio Only), Dividing Line from the High Country

James White, July 5, 2018, Homosexuality, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Just a few items as James is on the road, including a little astronomy, and then some discussion of the movement to “apologize” to the “LGBTQ” community—a community that, by any rational analysis, does not actually exist. Also, a brief discussion of the release by InterVarsity Press of a new book titled, “Can ‘White’ People Be Saved? Here is the

Isaiah 44:24 and the LDS View of God, More on the Book of Abraham, Open Phones

James White, June 28, 2018, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Homosexuality, Islam, Mormonism, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Started off discussing Isaiah 44:24 and its relevance to Mormonism, then transitioned into a bit more on the Book of Abraham and its significance as a clear indication of Smith’s errors. Then we looked at a few tweets from Rachel Held Evans and Kyle J. Howard in light of the retirement of Justice Anthony Kennedy. Then we went to the
