Roadtrip DL #2: A&O Seminary Study Continues

James White, July 29, 2021, Christian Worldview, Church History, Debate, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

We had a problem getting things to work back home and had to restart, but we go through a full discussion of Calvin’s view of the Father, Son and Spirit in the Institutes, I:XIII:19-21. Gave a good bit of background information, too. An important study, I hope you will be blessed! Also, I gave to quotes, one each from Blaise

Trinity vs. Tawheed: James White & Jake Brancatella

James White, July 22, 2021, Debate, General Apologetics, Islam, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

A one hour forty minute Christian/Muslim debate on a key and important issue.

The Regime Tightens Its Control, A Review of Dr. Gagnon’s Soteriology Posts on Facebook

James White, July 16, 2021, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Pastoral Theology, Pauline Studies, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

If the last DL caused you to lose sleep because of the creepy stuff we played from the global elites, today’s clips from our governmental overlords will probably produce more insomnia. Sorry, but while there is still some daylight left, expose the unfruitful works of darkness. After a half hour of that (including reading Amy Grant’s comments about welcoming the

A Multi-Faceted Program

James White, July 13, 2021, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, King James Onlyism, Offense, Open Theism, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Resources, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Covered a ton of topics from Doug Stauffer’s claim that I changed the text of The King James Only Controversy because of his refutations (false), to the weaponization of medicine, the onset of vaccine mandates, and the rise of trans-humanism. Played some pretty creepy videos (well, Rich thought they were creepy). Talked about Leighton Flowers a bit, and Rich tells

Is John 6 Only About the Apostles?

James White, July 12, 2021, Provisionism, Radio Free Geneva, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Today we examined this article by Eric Kemp (following the claims of someone named Drew McLeod) that tries to argue that John 6 is only about the Apostles, and is not relevant to anyone alive today. We have examined many dozens of attempts to get around the teachings of John 6 over the years, and this one ranks right down

A Packed Program

James White, July 6, 2021, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Eastern Orthodoxy, Pastoral Theology, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Not the most descriptive title, is it? Basically covered more on the SBC plagiarism scandal, reviewing some of what I included in my article about Tim Keller’s “being a heterosexual won’t get you to heaven” silliness, and how it was picked up by, and repeated by, so many others. We looked at the Docent Research Group, and wondered out loud

Mobile DL: Big Brother Keeps at It, Lessons from Litton, More on the Divine Truth About the Trinity

James White, June 30, 2021, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Did another program from up here in Prescott Valley, Arizona, looking at some amazing actions of Big Brother as he seeks to establish his totalitarian regime. Then we looked at the amazing documentation coming out about the blatant plagiarization of sermon material by Ed Litton, the new President of the SBC, and finished up at the end with more exciting

First DL from Mobile Command Center, Then Dale Tuggy Punches Low

James White, June 24, 2021, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

We did our very first live DL from our new mobile command center, aka, our 5th wheel unit that will be my living quarters as I travel around the US in the future (starting at the end of next month with a nearly 4000 mile loop around the western US, followed by my journey to Atlanta for the G3 Conference

Two Live Reports from the SBC in Nashville

James White, June 16, 2021, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Well, Rich and I had other plans today, but those fell through (after taking all morning), so we drove to the office and put together a quick DL featuring The Troublemaker from Texas,™ Dr. Tom Buck, and then following him up with another true troublemaker as well, my own fellow pastor at Apologia Church, Jeff “The Ninja” Durbin. Tom told

Dividing Line/Sheologians Mash Up

James White, June 15, 2021, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I did the program from Summer’s home today (they are installing the 5th wheel hitch in the truck today) so we talked about all sorts of stuff, including the SBC, how much the world has changed since Sheologians began, etc. Summer has come a long ways from her guest appearance on the show 25 years ago when we had her

A Helpful Discussion with the Muslim Metaphysician, Jake Brancatella

James White, June 3, 2021, Islam, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Had an enjoyable conversation with Jake Brancatella, “the Muslim Metaphysician” on his conversion to Islam, his background, his “LPT” argument (Logical Problem with the Trinity), and much more. Jake is discussing aspects of the Trinity and Christology that most Christians don’t know about (let alone almost all Muslims) so you might just learn a few things yourself!

Travel, Worldview, Flowers and Open Theism

James White, June 1, 2021, Christian Worldview, Debate, General Apologetics, Open Theism, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I’m not overly good at titling these things, am I? Started off telling everyone about our new travel initiative and the coming “A&O Travel Rig,” which will involve a 5th wheel RV and the truck to pull it. We will start talking to churches real soon so as to get as much ministry benefit from traveling as possible. So, I

Big Brother Tweets, FB Discussion, Junias, and Sola Scriptura

James White, May 13, 2021, Christian Worldview, Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Pauline Studies, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Joe Biden told everyone their choice is clear: live in masks or take Dr. Fauci’s Genetic Wonder Oil via tweet right as the program started, so we talked about that a bit. Spent about twenty minutes on the assertion that the ESV is “removing” things from the Bible in reference to effeminacy, etc., then moved to a quick overview of

More on the Worldview Revolution, then an Overview of 1 Tim 2

James White, May 11, 2021, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Pauline Studies, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with worldview issues, including the necessary and inevitable attack upon Christian teaching by secularizing governments in the West, but eventually moved to an extended discussion of Paul’s words to Timothy about women teaching and exercising authority over men. Lots of basic hermeneutics/exegesis issues covered today.

The President’s Plans

James White, April 29, 2021, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I did this program after doing Iron Sharpens Iron with Chris Arnzen, so this was sort of “hour three,” so I can’t claim there was a great deal of order to my thoughts. But aside from the start (where I talked about cycling, sorry), I spent most of the time considering the ramifications of the President’s speech before Congress last

A Post-Chauvin Verdict Show

James White, April 20, 2021, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Homosexuality, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

The initial verdict came down right at the start of the program but we pressed on anyway! We looked at the Rob Hoogland situation in Canada and the essence of transgender insanity. We looked at the “horrible damage” Samuel Sey did at Ambrose by…speaking words (the horror!). Discovered that some folks think there is no “threat of CRT” in the

Marty Duren and Big Eva, Vaccine Passports, and then Open Phones

James White, April 13, 2021, Christian Worldview, Church History, General Apologetics, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with a reminder that we are fast approaching (later this week) the 500th anniversary of Luther’s appearance at the Diet of Worms, and discussed the significance of that. Then we covered a few topics like Marty Duren’s hit-piece on Faultlines by Voddie Baucham and the coming vaccine passports (in light of the volcanic eruption down in the Caribbean),

John’s Testimony to the Deity of Christ: John 1:1-18, 8:24, 58, 20:28

James White, March 29, 2021, Debate, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Spent nearly two hours in the AOMax studio today diving into the issues surrounding the proper translation and understanding of John’s testimony to Jesus in his Gospel, prompted by the exchange between Anthony Rogers and Brandon Tatum on Instagram, found here.

All is Not Quiet on the Western Front!

James White, March 11, 2021, Christian Worldview, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Resources, Theology Matters

It is good for us to remember that we are not alone in our service to Christ and in the reign of His Kingdom in these dark and difficult days. I have had the great pleasure of ministering in Germany over the years, and in fact 2020 was the first year I had not been able to visit my brethren

Thinking Presuppositionally, Brandan Robertson and Chris Fisher

James White, March 9, 2021, Christian Worldview, Debate, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Open Theism, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

How do we think presuppositionally? Today we took at look at two issues, one with Brandan Robertson and his “Jesus was a racist” video, and then on to a debate on Open Theism with Chris Fisher, and his amazing claim that Yahweh gains knowledge by “counting water” in Isaiah 40:12. Hopefully helpful examples and teaching!

John Cooper of Skillet Talks About His Book, Music, and Life

James White, March 4, 2021, Personal, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Had a great time talking with John Cooper of Skillet today about his book, life, music, regrets, and victories. Really encouraging. Having some blocking issues (we played some music and the algorithms got us again!) but they should be cleared up fairly quickly since we submitted the clearance for them many hours before we did the show.

A Review and Refutation of Provisionist Confusion

James White, March 3, 2021, Pauline Studies, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

I did a quick teaching DL from home today to respond to the following meme (and briefly to one other that I don’t want to display). I tried to use a little screen annotation app I grabbed to do a little “Flip Board without the Flip Board” exegesis in Ephesians 1 to once again expose the man-centeredness of Provisionism’s vain

Special Guest Tom Buck/1 Corinthians 1 and a Debate

James White, February 25, 2021, Christian Worldview, Debate, Exegesis, Pastoral Theology, Pauline Studies, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

We had our first “e-guest” in our new studio today, Dr. Tom Buck of the FBC, Lindale. We talked things SBC as well as about the book of Hebrews, how to preach it, who wrote it, etc. Then toward the end of the program I made some comments about the McGrew/Slick debate on “total depravity” (I just looked and it

TikTok Lady Theologian Refuted, Comments on Dr. MacArthur and Losing Down Here

James White, January 27, 2021, Atheism, Christian Worldview, Church History, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Musings, Pastoral Theology, Pauline Studies, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

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

The Day After

James White, January 21, 2021, Abortion, Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Homosexuality, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Talked a lot about some of the amazing statements being made after the installation of the new regime in Washington. Looked at statements from Lecrae, Charlie Dates, and Anthony Bradley as well, especially as the latter two attacked Virgil Walker. Also looked at Russell Moore’s article on how to pray on inauguration day. Had to record and upload as the

Where Do We Go From Here? Staying Faithful in the Future

James White, January 19, 2021, Abortion, Christian Worldview, Church History, Godly Disciplines, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

As we watch with amazement the rapid transformation of Western culture in our day the question is: how do we remain faithful? I truly shared my heart today as I looked at an article about how the Chinese Communist Party “re-educates” Uighur Muslims and used it as a basis for laying out some basics for all of us at this

Challenges for the Global Church

James White, January 12, 2021, Christian Worldview, Godly Disciplines, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Heavy topics after a weekend of heavy developments in the move toward global socialism. Discussed this invaluable insight, posted by Doug Wilson, from Theodore Dalrympe, and how it fits with everything else we’ve been trying to communicate of late: Political correctness is communist propaganda writ small. In my study of communist societies, I came to the conclusion that the purpose

A Requiem for a Republic, Be Faithful Unto Death

James White, January 7, 2021, Christian Worldview, Musings, Offense, Pastoral Theology, Persecution, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

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

Response to Rick Warren on the Nature of the Church and More

James White, December 30, 2020, Christian Worldview, Persecution, Post-Evangelicalism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Started off with a little cancel culture expose, then looked at this ultra-creepy, “Let’s out-Orwell Orwell” UK website encouraging folks to mind-read their family, friends and neighbors and snitch on them to “highly trained Prevent officers.” Talk about repulsive. Then we moved on to Rick Warren’s amazing statements about the church’s “weakness” of only having “worship.” Warren’s ecclesiology has been

A Bunch of Woke Stuff, then Underappreciated Incarnational Texts

James White, December 22, 2020, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Homosexuality, Pauline Studies, Post-Evangelicalism, Technology, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters

Covered a few miscellaneous developments, such as Hungary’s stand on the family, and then moved to texts that teach incarnational truths but that normally get glossed over, from Mark and from John 6. I had intended to address a particular KJV Only argument, and to respond to some Roman Catholic claims, but simply spaced both as time was short! But,
