Today’s DL and Support from Whitefield

James White, April 20, 2006, The Dividing Line

Went a little long on the DL today because we filled up the phone lines by about twenty after the hour! I started with a little John Shelby Spong, and then responded to Dr. Davis on Romans 9, and when you mention Romans 9, well, look out! First caller, Joe, is a Pentecostal minister who had asked months ago that

White Smoke and Marty Minto

James White, April 19, 2005, The Dividing Line

Joseph Ratzinger, the chief theologian of the Roman Church, architect of the central document of Vatican II, the man behind so much of the theological documents of John Paul II, has been elected Pope, taking the name of Benedict XVI. Surely, the election of Ratzinger, at age 78, follows the normal “routine,” and signals a “staying of the course” theologically.

James White the Gnostic Heretic (Updated!)

James White, April 11, 2005, Reformed Apologetics

My personal Alexander the Coppersmith, Paul Owen of Montreat College, has offered his views of my various heresies today. I note that the best that has come out of my bearing his animosity and constant vociferous hostility over the years is that he has been forced, for various reasons, to become ever clearer in revealing his theological positions, and for

Insight Into the Roman Catholic Mind

James White, April 4, 2005, Roman Catholicism

The posting of my sermon from yesterday (mp3) has generated an incredible response, both positively and negatively. Combined with the blog entries over the past few days, our incoming e-mail has been hot and heavy. But so also have been the Roman Catholic web boards. While Steve Ray shut his down, the Catholic Answers forums and those at Envoy Magazine

Many Thanks to Steve Hays

James White, February 17, 2005, Reformed Apologetics

OK, so you may need to keep dictionary.com open on your browser, but it is well worth your effort. Steve Hays has commented on the current state of dialogue between myself and Mr. Holding. I truly appreciate the perspective he brings as well as his wit. I found myself chuckling frequently in reading through this article. I appreciated especially the

Monothelitism and Dr. White

TurretinFan, December 31, 2004, Roman Catholicism

Jay Dyer has provided the odd accusation that Dr. White is a Monothelite (link to accusation in a comment box on my blog). Mr. Dyer tries to reason from inferences that Dr. White would hold to the idea that Jesus Christ has only one will. However, as brought to my attention by a commenter named “Alex,” Dr. White has explicitly

Debate: Are Roman Catholics Our Brothers and Sisters in Christ?

Rich Pierce, November 5, 2004, Federal Vision, Theology Matters

Does Trinitarian baptism join you to the New Covenant? Does it join you to Christ? Does it make you a brother or sister in Christ with everyone else who has likewise been baptized, even if you hold to a false gospel? Are Roman Catholics our brothers and sisters in Christ by baptism, but not by confession of faith? These are

Romans 4:4-8

James White, July 10, 2004, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Pastoral Theology, Theology Matters

4:4-5 Now to the one who works, his pay is not credited due to grace but due to obligation. 4:5 But to the one who does not work, but believes in the one who declares the ungodly righteous, his faith is credited as righteousness. Immediately upon the heels of the citation of the passage we are provided what can only

James White, May 22, 2003, Debate, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

James White and Fr. Mitchell Pacwa debate the validity of the Roman Priesthood.

By What Authority Indeed? – James White vs. Mark Bonocore

James White, March 28, 2002, Roman Catholicism

The following exchange took place on a Roman Catholic list in 1997 over the course of a couple of weeks. As you will see at the end of this exchange, Mr. Mark Shea, author of By What Authority?, threatened legal action if I posted this material. However, in February of 2002, Mr. Shea himself posted an entire section of this

1 Cor 3:10-15: Exegesis and Rebuttal of Roman Catholic Misuse

James White, January 11, 2002, Roman Catholicism

10 According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, and another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it. 11 For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. 12 Now if any man builds

An In Channel Debate on Purgatory – James White vs. Various RC Participants

James White, January 3, 2002, Roman Catholicism

On Thursday evening, January 3, 2002, James White was to engage in an in-channel debate with a Roman Catholic from Australia who went by the nick of “velleity.” Velleity had challenged James in the chat channel on December 30th. Here is the log of the challenge: <velleity> het NA27 how about you an me have a debate sometime in

Response to Roman Catholic Scott Hahn on “Once for All” in Hebrews

James White, December 29, 2001, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Dr. White explains how Dr. Hahn is an example of an apologist that is able to make an impressive presentation, yet at the same time has very problematic argumentation. Exegesis of the passage shows that the “once for all” of Hebrews 7:27 must be talking about the completed work of Christ that replaces repetitious sacrifices of priests, and can not be talking

A Most Disappointing Response: Dr. Norman Geisler’s “Reply” to The Potter’s Freedom Raises Serious Issues, But Not the Ones You Would Expect

James White, November 15, 2001, Reformed Apologetics

I had not heard even a whisper about the inclusion of an appendix (now the 13th appendix in the book) in a new edition of Dr. Norman Geisler’s Chosen But Free. Thankfully, a kind brother in Indianapolis e-mailed me and informed me of the appendix, assuming, however, that I had already seen it. I had not. I immediately requested, and

Same Sex Controversy part 2 of 3: Refuting 8 Revisionist Theories about Romans 1

James White, September 1, 2001, Homosexuality, The Dividing Line

As societal rebellion against God increases, all truths of Scripture become targets, include what God’s law says against sins like homosexuality, about which there are currently a flood of new books. Callers try their best to respond to some of the pro-homosex theories based clear statements of the text, and Dr. White fills in additional exegesis and historical background to

Norman Geisler’s Second Edition of Chosen But Free, Part 3 of 3 – A Class Project?

James White, August 25, 2001, The Dividing Line

Dr. White theorizes that, due to the poor quality of the appendix that responds to his book the Potter’s Freedom, it could not have been written by a scholar like Geisler, but seems to have been the result of a group project from Geisler’s undergraduate logic class. The original text of CBF ignored some key texts that help establish Reformed

Norman Geisler’s Second Edition of Chosen But Free, Part 2 of 3 – Logical Fallacy?

James White, August 18, 2001, The Dividing Line

Dr. White continues covering the error-laden 13th appendix of Chosen But Free, which had claimed to be a response to his book The Potter’s Freedom. This program covers a supposed list of logical fallacies in White’s PF, including ad hominem attacks and name calling. A closer look, however, reveals that the CBF appendix is littered with not just citations of

Norman Geisler’s Second Edition of Chosen But Free, Part 1 of 3 – Misrepresentation?

James White, August 11, 2001, The Dividing Line

The second edition of Geisler’s book does include an appendix that makes a response to Dr. White’s Potter’s Freedom, but the quality of this appendix is even lower than that of the book itself, with wrong citations and no attempt at exegesis. Dr. White’s PF had demonstrated that Geisler’s CBF strangely redefines terms that have been in use for centuries,

John 6 – A Final Response by James White, Mike Porter, Eric Nielsen, and Colin Smith

James White, August 1, 2001, Roman Catholicism

Over the course of the past few months a very lengthy exchange took place between James White and Robert Sungenis on the topic of John 6. We believe the facts have been established with more than sufficient certainty for anyone who is willing to fairly observe them. Mr. Sungenis has responded with a very lengthy article, but to be perfectly

Prayer of Jabez, Harold Camping, Calls on Paedobaptism and Roman Catholic Apologetics

James White, July 21, 2001, The Dividing Line

A multi-topic dividing line: Dr. White notes that converts to Romanism often do so based on the very worst arguments, and mentions three upcoming Protestant books that will speak the truth, followed by a phone call about the anachronistic nature of Rome’s historical claims. James also mentions two topics that we will discuss more in future programs: Harold Camping’s claim

Open Phones with Remote Connection to Dr. White in San Francisco

James White, July 14, 2001, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

r. White called into the Dividing Line show from the Golden Gate Seminary campus where he has been teaching classes on apologetics. Dr. White shares how Roman Catholics (on EWTN) are uncomfortable with exegesis of Romans 1-8 (and 9-11), and how its statement that we are justified apart from the law cannot be in reference to the ceremonial law, but must include

Joseph Smith’s Misconception of Grace and Dr. White’s Strategy for Upcoming Debate

James White, March 24, 2001, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormonism, The Dividing Line

The silly accusation from Dr. Chambers that Dr. White is secretly working for the pope needs no response. In Dr. White’s upcoming debate on Free Agency with Richard Hopkins, he will need to efficiently describe the biblical doctrine of both God and man, and will simply point out that Joseph Smith’s theology is not biblical because he needed to alter

John 6, the Father and the Son, Salvation, and Roman Catholic Apologists

James White, March 12, 2001, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism

“James White Has Been Proven Wrong So Many Times, It Isn’t Funny” So runs part of the headline on Scott Windsor’s “response” to his appearance on our webcast. I swore I would not even waste my time looking at it. Many felt I had wasted an entire program a few weeks ago having an amateur “apologist” on the program, Scott

Live On Air Debate With Roman Catholic Scott Windsor on Bible Interpretation

James White, January 13, 2001, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Dr. White has been dialoguing with Scott Windsor for 15 years already, and their interactions inspired Dr. White’s first two books, on Roman Catholicism. Today they discuss the Reformed view of the sovereignty of God in John 6 compared to the Catholic view of Transubstantiation. The talk makes clear which side has their views derived from Scripture, and which side is rooted

First Ever Internet Stream Show Reviews a Letter from a Roman Catholic

James White, December 2, 2000, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Since a Roman Catholic man (that pilots an F-16) was unhappy that his wife bought a book from James White, he sent a letter with anti-Protestant challenges to Dr. White’s wife. Dr. White responds to the historicity and presuppositions of its three challenges while taking the first ever phone call questions from the internet-only broadcast, including on the development of

Call-in Apologetics Trivia to Win Books by James White

James White, November 18, 2000, Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormonism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

Dr. White took advantage of his sickness by hosting a trivia game in which callers could win books for correct answers. Questions covered Jehovah’s Witnesses, LDS, Roman Catholics, Oneness Pentecostals, and the Bible. Rich Pierce manned the sound effects board.

Response to Southwestern on King James Controversy, Part 6 (Letus / Erhman)

James White, September 23, 2000, King James Onlyism, The Dividing Line

Dr. Letus also accused Dr. White of being ignorant of Bart Erhman’s work on textual criticism, but Letus neglected to mention the liberal presuppositions of Erhman, as well as how often Erhman’s scholarly conclusions refute KJOnlyism. Also, some new information on Dr. Letus’s background comes to light. Caller asks how much responsibility we have to correct those that reject the

What Do Some Roman Catholic and Mormon Apologists Have in Common?

James White, September 1, 2000, Mormonism, Roman Catholicism

Oh, the e-mail I get! If I took the time to actually look at all the URL’s sent my direction, I’d never do anything else. The Internet has changed the face of apologetics in general, sometimes for the better, sometimes for the worse. Over the past few weeks I’ve gotten some real nuclear bombs from folks. I addressed some of

My Dad Debates Roman Catholics

Summer Jaeger, July 10, 2000, Roman Catholicism

When I, my mom, brother, Escobedo family, and Jason Naut, drove to California early Friday morning the reason for my excitement was because the next day we would hopefully be in Knott’s Berry Farm. That night we would be attending a debate between my father and Mr. Staples. I was looking forward to it, of course, but I was more

Papal Infallibility (White vs Staples)

James White, July 7, 2000, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line

James White shows Papal Infallibility to be nothing more than a convenient invention of Rome in this debate. He clearly demonstrates that Roman arguments for Infallibility can’t stand up to the test of history. Listen as an expert dismantles the Roman arguments piece by piece leaving his opponent with nothing more than empty rhetoric. Once again a predominantly Roman Catholic

A Date in Fullerton – by Kelli White

James White, July 1, 2000, Roman Catholicism

My name is Kelli White. You probably don’t know me but if you’re reading this you may know of or at least heard of my husband, James White. He is the Director of Alpha and Omega Ministries in Phoenix, AZ. Some say he is a controversial man at times. Last week is one such example. On Thursday he was in
