Remember Brother Jack’s (now private) video “sermon” explaining why I am going to hell (and why I’m a jerk, an idiot, stupid, etc.)? Well, I was told this morning that he is going to call the program tomorrow so, I listened to his entire presentation while riding today and decided that with a bit of effort I can, in fact,

We had an important discussion of the recent study showing that “Protestants” are now less than 50% of the US population, and I discussed how the “Nones” are now 20%, and what this means for evangelism and apologetics. Then we went back to Paul Williams’ comments, almost finishing off his opening statement.

Covered a wide range of topics today, such as: Psalm 36:4 and the need to despise evil; the growing evidence that the “Gospel of Jesus’ Wife” fragment is a modern day fraud; the fundamentalist, non-reflective secularism of Adam Gopnik; Paul Williams’ love affair with the nuttiest of history and theology; more examples of how intolerant those of the left are

Started off catching up with the fact that Bob Larson moved to Scottsdale (in the Phoenix area), and is busily plying his exorcism trade, now in company with his 18 year old daughter! How exciting! Then we got back, finally, to the Dan Wallace v. Bart Ehrman debate, digging back into Ehrman’s hyper-skepticism.

Dove back into the Paul Williams debate a bit, then took callers on a wide variety of topics, finishing off with a call about dreams of Jesus amongst Muslims. Love the variety of calls we get! Also, you all know how often I play debates, lectures, etc., on the Dividing Line, and interact with them. Well, a program that I

Talked briefly about California outlawing offering hope to young homosexuals as a wonderful example of what I’ve been saying for decades now: homosexuals do not want equal rights, they want uber rights. And leftist politicians will sell their souls to anyone with a large enough donation, so voila! “Law.” You know what? Law loses its compelling force with men of

Took the time to go over my incredible journey through London and Berlin, including four debates, one at the East London Mosque, as well as the rest of the ministry opportunities I engaged in over the past two weeks. Took the time to consider the debates and offer some insights into why they were each different from each other.

Started off talking about the creeping dhimmitude in the US, then looked at some Christian grandparents being punished by the secularist elite government in Scotland, then mentioned the Steve Ray’s inconsistency in his comments on the Protevangelium of James, then talked about a package I received from Dr. Sam Gipp today (you really need to listen to that one). Then

So…isn’t it ironic that I finally finished writing What Every Christian Needs to Know About the Qur’an on 9/11? That wasn’t my plan, but it turned out that way. Anyhow, by the time I got to the DL I had been working all day to finish a 34 page chapter with at least seven pages of endnotes (maybe nine, I

Didn’t really intend to spend pretty much the entire hour on this, but, as I often say, it’s definitely live webcasting. Started off reflecting on the statements in support of the murder of unborn children and the profanation of marriage that are found in the DNC platform document, and then turned to Isaiah 5:8ff for thoughts on what happens when

Briefly addressed the “Bill Nye the Science Guy” issue, then spent most of the hour discussing the nit-picking criticisms of an Ephesians 4:14 man relating to my comments on the NoCoEver video (in the process looking at some interesting statements from Athanasius that are useful in apologetics) before very briefly returning to the Paul Williams presentation.

Regular length show today. First 45 minutes was on this article by Trevin Wax, and the last comprised a brief review of this post which had been tweeted by Paul Bilal Williams.

Was going to jump back into the Paul Williams material but, instead, I took the time to look at Hadith Qudsi 36 and ended up doing an entire hour on using these stories from Islamic history and lore as a means of opening up an opportunity for the presentation of the Gospel. Here’s where you can read Hadith Qudsi 36.

Had not really intended it (was going to divide the program into two topics), but we ended up staying on one topic (even the three calls were on the same topic, mainly anyway), that being homosexuality, the redefinition of marriage, related cultural issues—even touching on abortion as well. Hopefully helpful as we seek to be light in the darkness.

Covered a bunch of stuff, starting off examining this really bad pro-homosexual argument, discussed a little about the LGBT terrorist in Washington, D.C., and then discussed the appearance of non-Trinitarian singing group PC&D at a local church (Scottsdale Bible Church) and the very odd response from the “Worship and Creative Arts Pastor” of the church. Then we moved back to

Started off with half an hour responding to one of the worst Scripture-twisting arguments offered by pro-homosexuals relating to the Centurion’s son. Then we discussed the recent fascinating edition of Justin Brierley’s Unbelievable broadcast (found here) featuring Robert Spencer and Adnan Rashid. Then we went back to responding to, and refuting, the comments of Paul Bilal Williams in his recent

Debuted our new “Radio Free San Francisco” theme today, created by Sir Barry Ladden himself, and kept moving in our examination of Harry Knox’s pro-homosexual presentation from the 2008 debate. Then, after about 45 minutes, switched over to an episode of Radio Free Damascus and began examining the presentation made by Paul Bilal Williams a few weeks ago in a

William Lane Craig responded to my criticisms of his use of Cerberus as an illustration of the Trinity on the Reasonable Faith podcast yesterday, so we played his comments and responded to them on today’s Dividing Line.

Mainly went over this article and its capitulation to the redefinition of the word “hate” as well as the entire concept of determining ethics and morality and right and wrong based upon the emotions and perceptions of people who have already proven themselves to be deeply dysfunctional in the entirety of their personal lives. I had seen the article last

Started off finishing up my response to Abdullah Kunde’s article (since he’s sort of “off line” for Ramadan, I kept it brief). Then I reviewed some comments on Jesus and homosexuality, and then interacted with Barnabas Piper’s article on why going to Chick-fil-A on Wednesday was, in his view, a “bold mistake.” I boldly disagreed. Then we moved into a

A fast moving jumbo DL today with basically two portions. In the first, I responded to this open letter on the subject of the profanation of marriage. Then we talked about this example of anti-Christian activism, and this amazing statement from the Mayor of DC. Then we moved over to a response to Tyler McNabb’s apostasy as announced on his

Back in January of 2011 I taught a module in Owensboro at the Midwest Center for Theological Studies. My primary student contact, and one of the folks who gave me transportation, took me out to eat, etc., was Justin Kline. There is video, somewhere, of his baby daughter, shall we say, burping on my shoulder. I learned only this afternoon

Started off with more reporting on the spiraling insanity and depravity of Western culture expressing itself in open hatred of Christian morality and ethics, especially in the abuse of the term “discrimination.” Then we started to take calls, and, well, though I wanted to get back to the Abdullah Kunde response, the calls kept coming and we filled up the

Started off discussing the continued moral schizophrenia of Western Culture and the continuing progression of NewSpeak, the evisceration of the language (diversity and inclusive becoming their own antonyms), and then got a few more minutes of Harry Knox’s comments covered as well. Then we shifted gears after a break and I responded to Abdullah Kunde’s article here.

OK, I was going to divide the program up evenly, with 45 minutes on each topic, but…I lost track of time and ended up going one hour on my review of Pastor Rogers’ anti-Calvinism book, and only thirty minutes finishing up listening to the cross-ex with Abdullah Kunde on Surah 5:44ff. Next week I intend to get back to the

Went for two full hours today, starting off with Pastor Rogers’ new book, Reflections of a Disenchanted Calvinist as our subject in an hour long edition of Radio Free Geneva. Then we took a break and came back with an hour long edition of Radio Free Damascus, first offering some comments on Paul Bilal Williams and his comments in last

Sorry I did not get this blogged (and nobody else thought to do it either!), but last Friday we did a special DL from Edwards, Colorado, replete with studio audience! Talked a bit at the start about cultural issues again, but then got back into Sam Zaatari’s comments in his recent debate with David Wood. I am getting backlogged with

Started off shaking my head about the amazing thuggery of the radical leftists in our culture who can get away with attacking Brad Pitt’s mother for daring to have an opinion other than their own. Then we moved into a brief discussion of the seemingly genetic inconsistency of the leading Islamic apologists today and their fascination with liberal scholarship–at least,

A few seconds ago, on the Dividing Line, Dr. White referred to a set of lectures on the reliability of Scripture. As Dr. White originally wrote, back in August, 2011: This morning I listened, for the 2nd time, to a 3 1/2 hour seminar recorded in Scotland, I believe, in Edinburgh. The presenters (the audio file did a horrible job

I was joined by my good friend Michael Brown on today’s edition of The Dividing Line as we discussed his new book, The Real Kosher Jesus. Of course we wandered off topic a few times, and took some good calls at the end as well, but mainly we focused on the book, and especially the portion dealing with the Jewish

Pressed on with some discussion of the homosexual agenda from current news, then got a little farther in our Harry Knox review. Then took a call at the end of the hour on the subject of our federal headship in Adam and in Christ, which took us about ten minutes long.
