First subject in our 90 minute Jumbo edition: remembering the nature of Scripture while resisting unbelieving ways of scholarship based upon some comments made in review of a recent book on the virgin birth.  Though I think most people “enjoyed” the other two subjects more, this was by far the most important part of the program. Second, what happened “in

Bored everyone to tears the first part of the program by discussing two books I read yesterday, one by James D.G. Dunn, the other by McGrath, both on pretty much the same area of study.  Tried to speak about the necessity of demythologizing scholarship.  Included a brief clip of what those books “sound” like while riding.  Then we took two

Commented a little at the start on Reformation Day, then discussed an example of Islamophobia (the real kind—i.e., a bigotted/biased attack piece that shows no interest in understanding, but only in engendering fear and hatred), then moved on to some news in the onslaught of the homosexual movement before taking calls. Here’s the video:

Covered a lot today, with a brief recounting of my interview with KJV Only advocate Steven Anderson, and then a longer series of comments based upon my listening to three of the presentations from the Strange Fire Conference on my ride this morning.  Then we took calls, including one from Rory on the presentation of David Allen from Southwestern against

I decided to dedicate the entire program today to reviewing the first call Michael Brown took on The Line of Fire on Tuesday.  It seemed to provide an excellent basis for actually addressing the most important elements of this controversy.  I didn’t expect to take the whole hour, but, that’s what happened!  Hopefully our listeners will find this a useful

Today on the Dividing Line we covered a wide variety of topics, including briefly looking at Al Mohler’s talk at BYU, and some recent incidents of infanticide and Western culture’s love of death and destruction.  I then played a clip from Mr. Pinto’s Tares video that illustrates the ease with which conspiracy theories can be produced (did you know Darwin published Origin

Today on the Dividing Line we covered a wide range of topics, from the Pope and Mary to the Strange Fire Conference and lots of other things, including calls as well.  A veritable potpourri!

I responded to the “conversion testimony” (note how it is a story of conversion not to Christ, but to a system of religion) by former Southern Evangelical Seminary professor Jason Reed today. This is a very important discussion, and it is one I hope will be helpful to those watching the developments at SES in regards to a wave of

My grand daughter Clementine knows what to watch on the computer!

Took the first half hour to catch up with the Popes (yes, plural), and the continuing elevation of a small sexual minority to the position of an uber-class of privilege, and then launched into a 90 minute Radio Free Damascus, focusing on Yusuf Ismail and at the end, Bashir Varnia. Can’t see this? Click here to go to the YouTube

We had another jumbo show today. Dr. White addressed a recent ‘Calvinism Dialogue’ at Southwestern Theological Seminary and the comments made from both sides. While he had hoped to fit in more from Bashir Varnia he decided to keep going with reviewing Jerry Walls’ presentation on calvinism and concluded it.

Started out reviewing some of the comments of Lawrence Krauss and William Lane Craig from Australia today, as featured on Unbelievable. Had to take time to interact with Craig’s “God didn’t do the Canaanite children any wrong because they all went to heaven” defense once again showing that where you start theologically will always, always determine your apologetic argumentation. Then

Well, I’m not sure how to blog all of this. Since we live streamed the presentation summarizing the case against Ergun Caner Tuesday evening from Lindale, Rich decided, “Hey, we can do that.” So, we are now live streaming the Dividing Line. I have no idea why anyone would want to watch me sitting there talking, but, evidently, people do.

Started off discussing next Tuesday’s seminar in Lindale on Ergun Caner and the Great Evangelical Cover Up, then went back to our review of Jerry Walls’ presentation, and then for the last half hour we went back to responding to Yusuf Ismail. The Walls discussion got into his comments on John Piper and his comments about his sons, so it

Started off with Radio Free Geneva today, pressing forward with our review of Jerry Walls’ presentation against Calvinism. We got into the heart of his argument today. Not sure if I will do another on Thursday yet or not. Depends on what I run into during my study time in the darkness before sunrise in the morning! In any case,

Dr. White mentioned his upcoming trip to South Africa, (donations are still needed!) Dr. White then responded to Chris Pinto’s conspiracy theories and suggestions from a recent radio program. Then in the second half of the program, Dr. White fired up Radio Free Geneva to respond to a video by Dr. Jerry Walls.

First half I discussed the New Mexico State Supreme Court’s decree demanding Christians compromise their faith (but, of course, not calling for homosexuals to compromise anything at all) as the “price of citizenship” in this fine and upstanding secular nation. Then moved back to responding to Yusuf Ismail’s opening statement in preparation for the trip to South Africa. By the

Since I am headed for Pryor, Oklahoma, on Thursday, this will be the only DL this week. Did a Jumbo on…well, again, a wide, wide variety of topics. Mainly focused on responding to Yusuf Ismail, but, really, covered a wide range of topics, some really important concepts, such as “demythologizing scholarship” and the like. Did start off with a few

Since I did not get to my “South Africa trip preparation materials” on yesterday’s very long Dividing Line, I promised to get to it today, on a special Radio Free Damascus Friday program. Finished up Bashir Vania’s opening statement, and then started into Yusuf Ismail’s comments. Did not get too far as we needed to unpack a lot of background

Jumba/Mega? Well, it wasn’t 90 minutes, and it wasn’t 120 minutes, it was…105 minutes. So, somewhere in between I guess. And even with that, I didn’t get back to Bashir Vania or Yusuf Ismail, so, we are planning on an early afternoon DL tomorrow to catch up! I started off replying to at least the beginning of Anthony Buzzard’s response

Started off responding to the video I posted yesterday, and recording it for posting on YouTube: Then we moved on to discuss a number of things, including the cowardice of Richard Dawkins, the moral depravity of rebellion against God’s creative purpose in gender, and the depth of darkness one plunges into when one abandons the truth and believes a lie.

I actually chose to start off with my continued response to Bashir Vania’s comments because we were in a section that has high apologetic value, which covered the first 45 minutes. Then we opened the phones, and my, the range of topics was vast! Adam and I sat around yammering about OT textual criticism for a while (at least I

By the time I got to the DL today I had already done three hours on the air, so I can’t make too many claims for how coherent I was! Covered a lot of topics in the first half hour before returning to reviewing Bashir Vania’s comments in his debate with Jay Smith. And don’t forget the WayBack Machine, streaming

Let’s see…we talked about Desmond Tutu rejecting a “homophobic God,” the Pope’s comments on homosexuality, the PCUSA’s rejection of the wrath of God, the ongoing attack upon the freedoms of Christian soldiers in the military, Reza Aslan’s book, “Zealot,” and then finally we got to Bashir Vania’s opening statement in a debate with Jay Smith. Something for everyone—sort of!

Did another Jumbo Edition of the DL, starting off with a review of a William Lane Craig response to an inquiry, found here. Reviewed that wild and zany philosophy of Molinism, etc. Then briefly responded to an Ijaz Muhammad article, here, and then spent the last 45 minutes finishing up Yusuf Ismail’s rebuttal to William Lane Craig, which took longer

Took the time to address (through some distractions!) the “Twitter Indulgences” topic that has come up the last few days, trying to get down to the real issue, Rome’s blasphemous teaching on the treasury of merit, purgatory, etc. Then got even closer to finally finishing my review of the Calvinist Call In show! And don’t forget the WayBack Machine, streaming
