Temples Made With Hands
James White, , MormonismMany of the world’s religions focus their worship upon a temple, or temples. Often the deity that is worshipped is said to be physically present in the temple, while at other times the deity, though dwelling somewhere else, visits with the people at the temple. Under the Old Covenant , the one true God of Israel, Jehovah, allowed His people
Seer Stones, Hillsong Church, and KJVOnly Deceitfulness
James White, , General Apologetics, Homosexuality, King James Onlyism, Mormonism, Textual Issues, The Dividing LineThree topics on today’s program: started off with the story of Joseph Smith’s “Seer Stone” and the recent publication of pictures of it by the LDS Church (my, how times have changed!). Then we moved on to the Hillsong story, Carl Lentz, Brian Houston, and the very confusing, odd statement released a few days ago that seems to indicate that
Joseph Smith the Translator
Sean Hahn, , MormonismThe average Mormon is probably unaware of the beliefs held by Joseph Smith regarding the nature of God and the creation account, as well as the hermeneutical weaknesses that underlie his position. A Christian apologist who is aware of these weaknesses and capable of demonstrating them succinctly, is in a better position to undermine the misplaced confidence of the Mormon
Open Phones After LDS General Conference
James White, , Mormonism, The Dividing LineDr. White is joined by Eddie Dalcour, president of the ministry “Department of Christian Defense”, and member of the Power Team.

James White, , Exegesis, General Apologetics, Hebrew Israelism, Mormonism, Pastoral Theology, Pauline Studies, Persecution, The Dividing Line, Theology MattersThe copyright challenge by @vladtv has been lifted. This program is now available for viewing. Talked a bit about the odd interaction Mormonism is having with the LGBTQ movement, and then covered some of the crack-down on religions (both Christianity and Islam) in China. Then I played a few minutes from a fellow named “Polight” wherein he gets all confused
Guessing About God: Mormonism’s Inability to Resist the Onslaught of Modernistic Skepticism (Part 9)
James White, , MormonismThis is the ninth in a series of replies I am providing to a blog article (linked numerous times before) by Daniel McClellan. This has grown to proportions I never expected when I first decided to respond to it, but it remains my hope that it has value for those dealing with the new generation of Mormon apologists. Christianity, in
KJV Only Abuse of Numerology, Dan McClellan on NT Manuscripts
James White, , CBGM, King James Onlyism, Mormonism, Technology, Textual Issues, The Dividing LineHad a bunch of other stuff I didn’t get to, but did manage to look at an excellent example of how KJVOism destroys real confidence in the Bible by looking at an example provided by Pastor Jonathan Burris (here) regarding the abuse of Deuteronomy 16:11 by one such KJVO advocate. Then we moved over to this video from Dan McClellan,
Paul’s Expanded Shema and Important Truths in Handling Scripture
James White, , Exegesis, Mormonism, Pauline Studies, Textual Issues, The Dividing LineStarted off with a little discussion of the upcoming seminar in St. Charles (see below), and then focused on 1 Corinthians chapter 8 for the rest of the program, discussing interpretational issues and dangers especially our audience might face in doing apologetics and exegesis.
