Went a long time today (1:45) and covered a lot of ground. Started off responding to JD Greear’s joining of the “don’t point out the worldview of the new regime, and especially of Kamala Harris, stands directly in parallel with that of Jezebel, let alone proclaim that judgment will come upon all who promote such rebellion in our day” group of Southern Baptist leaders. Then we played a clip from Phil Vischer and Jemar Tisby promoting “equity” vs. “equality,” and finished up with a discussion on eschatology and the controlling texts and themes that should determine our outcomes especially in this day.
Benny Diaz hosts and shares a summary of the ministry, from its origins in outreach to the LDS witht he gospel, as it has expanded to apologetics to other cults and Roman Catholics. He also interviews pastor John on Reformed Baptist History, marks of a true church, church discipline, and church governance.
A very interesting debate where both sides make strong cases, until one examines the other. Michuta makes a strong opening statement, however it is refuted by Dr. White during rebuttal. For the rest of the debate Michuta makes no attempt to deal with Dr. White’s countering evidence, and simply gives responses grounded in accusations of misunderstanding and deliberate mischaracterization.

Today we began with the promised clip from Anthony Buzzard.

Last live DL at least for me for a while (unless we can hook up while I am back east with a solid connection). First made some comments on the recent “Francis and Evolution” stuff coming out of Rome. Then got back to Brian Zahnd’s opening comments in the Calvinism debate, and got within I would say about a minute
Decided to do a little more review of the Karen Swallow Prior article in Christianity Today so as to shed some light on the language it uses, and the compromise it presents, and also to try to redeem some of the fury that has been ignited over the P&P article about her. So much dust has been thrown in the
Did a live Radio Free Geneva from up here in Colorado (or, from under Brewton Parker, all depends) looking at a video posted by Jacob Prasch on the subject. Standard stuff, to be sure, but always good to respond to that which gets the most press anyway. Enjoy, and don’t forget tomorrow’s DL at 6pm EDT with Vocab Malone! Here
One of the issues that will take center stage in Orlando will be the nature of modern scholarship. As those of you know who have read The Same Sex Controversy, an entire body of “scholarship” has arisen over the past few decades in support of any number of competing (and often self-contradictory) theories regarding what the Bible “really teaches” about
