Ehrman and Islamic Apologetics and More on Andy Stanley and Russell Moore
Started off with a brief discussion of the constant problem with Islamic apologetics—the necessary double standard it has to employ to defend the Qur’an on one hand, and attack the Bible on the other. Then we moved back to the Russell Moore/Andy Stanley discussion, once again noting fundamental issues of ecclesiology and Scriptural authority lying at the root of the

The Birmingham Qur’an, Bart Ehrman, Equal Scales, and the Biblical Text of the London Confession
Quite a range of things on a Jumbo (90 minute) DL today: started out on the new Qur’an fragments, the big story while I was away from Phoenix. Discussed Bart Ehrman’s less-than-unbiased commentary, and finished up with a discussion of whether I am violating my own confession of faith by not using the TR. Included some, shall we say, straightforward

A Comparison of Islam and Christianity
I was noticing news reports concerning the rise in violence against Ahmadi Muslims in the news this morning. Evidently, an Islamic scholar, Dr. Aamer Liaqat Hussain, during a television program commemorating the 1974 act by Pakistan’s parliament that declared Ahmadis “non-Muslims,” argued that the murder of Ahmadis is a “religious duty.” This sparked violence and murder, including the shooting of

Open Phones on the Dividing Line
Started off talking with Mike O’Fallon from Geneva, Switzerland about our upcoming cruise to Alaska in September (don’t miss out!), and then played a clip from a recent Kent Hovind video where, irony of ironies, he is accused of doing everything Gail Riplinger accused me of doing—which he himself repeated and promoted! Well, what goes around comes around, as they
