A Brief Rejoinder
James White, , Pastoral Theology, Personal, Reformed Baptist Issues, Theology Matters, ThomismAfter many months of making reference to my statements (normally as found on the Dividing Line) only by ostensibly humorous sub-tweeting, Dr. Barcellos recently directly addressed me via Twitter. Given the length of the thread, and my desire to have facial expression and tone of voice available (one of the worst problems with Twitter in general), I responded on the
Kirk Cameron’s Message to the SBC Pastors
James White, , Pastoral TheologyI read this on the Strange BaptistFire blog, and I thought it was worth repeating. This message was recorded by Kirk Cameron and played for the SBC pastors: Can I speak to you from my heart for a moment? I realize that, theologically, I’m not worthy to wash your socks. But imagine this scenario with me, if you will: Imagine

Full Response to Thabiti Anyabwile on Colossians and Related Topics, Open Phones
James White, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Pastoral Theology, The Dividing Line, Theology MattersSpent over an hour working through the latest response from Thabiti Anyabwile focusing especially on the exegetical and theological issues, but not only them. Watched as a Twitter storm took place during the program—a storm I will not be investing the time in going back to read. Then we turned to the phones and had a few calls on similar
On the Necessity and Beauty of Godly Conflict
James White, , Pastoral TheologyGuest blogger Eddie Exposito provides some thoughts while I prepare to head to the Deep South… When you find someone who agrees with you on every point of doctrine, polity, and practice you must either be gazing into your bedroom mirror or having fellowship with a politician, for the truth of the matter is, we do disagree. Now don’t
Biblical Theology in Pastoral Practice
Jeff Downs, , Pastoral TheologyI am currently reading Biblical Theology in the Life of the Church for fun, but also in preparation for (Lord willing) pastoral ministry. What I’ve read so far I am really enjoying, with one exception. I do not understand why some theologians, when speaking of covenants, buy in to Meredith Kline’s view. It bothers me that when Michael Lawrence writes
James Lindsay on John 1:1, then Calls
James White, , Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Pastoral Theology, Post-Evangelicalism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology MattersSpent the first twenty minutes responding to the excitement on Twitter yesterday when James Lindsay made reference to John 1:1. Then we took calls on baptism, whether it is James or Jacob in the New Testament, the vaccine mandates and the military, and church membership when you are Reformed and your church isn’t.

Theological Triage – Maintaining the Unity of the Faith
Rich Pierce, , Pastoral Theology, The Dividing LinePastor John Samson (kingschurchaz.com) guest hosts once again on today’s Dividing Line, bringing an important teaching on first order and second order doctrines. As the quote attributed to Augustine says, “In essentials, unity; in non-essentials, liberty; and in all things, charity.” We experienced some audio difficulties during the first two minutes of the show but after that it went well.
