Envoy’s Fixation
James Swan, , Roman CatholicismThe Envoy discussion board will not allow links to Alpha and Omega Ministries, yet they are fixated on this very blog. The following Envoy discussion threads from the last few weeks are specifically on James White or material posted on aomin.org. Some of these topics are posted to not move from the first page of the Envoy discussion board:
A Great Comparison
James White, , Roman CatholicismIt is rare that you get to provide such a contrast as this, but this one is great. First, start out with this blog entry by Steve Ray, Catholic apologist who, ironically, just finished a DVD about the Apostolic Fathers. Why is it ironic? Well, read on. Look at his entry and see if he interacts with anything relevant to
Roman Catholic Apologetics Goes Presuppositional
James Swan, , Roman CatholicismNever underestimate the writing output of a Catholic apologist. You can be easily buried with facts on several different topics spanning numerous pages. Most of their arguments are exercises in reasoning from the facts back to the Roman Catholic Church. One fact supports another in arguing back to the church Jesus is said to have established. The Catholic apologist will
Let God Speak: Hermeneutics
James White, , Church Fathers, Church History, Exegesis, Gospel/Jesus Studies, Pastoral Theology, Pauline Studies, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, ThomismWe did a nearly two hour long program today on the issue of hermeneutics, exegesis, tradition, and the current movement in Reformed circles toward the embracing of “the Great Tradition,” “Reformed Thomism,” and “Christian Platonism.” I think this is one of the most important programs we have ever done, and I pray the Lord will bless it to your edification.
Bellisario (by Proxy) on the Papacy – Part 1
TurretinFan, , Roman CatholicismMr. Matthew Bellisario has, as far as I can tell, only a single blog post directly on issues relating to the papacy (although there are a number of contra-Lutheran and contra-contraceptive posts that mention the papacy)(link to MB’s post). Even in this instance, however, Mr. Bellisario is merely providing a quotation from another author. The author Bellisario quotes is Cornelius
Ratzinger’s Posthumous Truth Bombs, FBC Orlando, Andy Stanley
James White, , Homosexuality, Post-Evangelicalism, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing LineHad to start of with a few minutes on the posthumously published book from Joseph Ratzinger. Fascinating and important stuff from the former Pope. Then we listened to some stuff from FBC Orlando, then on to Andy Stanley and homosexuals “serving” and “worshipping” in the Church. This is when we’ve been called to serve, so, we have to deal with
A Wise Voice from the Past (update below/further comments 7/25)
James White, , Roman CatholicismI was rummaging through some old—and I do mean OLD—files yesterday looking for a letter, when I ran across some old Penpoints. Penpoint was the monthly update from Dr. Greg Bahnsen of the SCCCS (Southern California Center for Christian Studies). My eyes happened to fall upon the issue from just over a decade ago, June, 1994, which carried the title,
I Won’t Read It, But It Must Be a Lie!
James Swan, , Roman CatholicismHere was a thread that caught my eye on the Catholic Answers forums: “I was looking at Philip Porvaznik’s (“Philvaz”) website and saw an interesting quote from protestant apologist William Webster and David king in their book “The Holy Scripture: Pillar and Foundation of our faith” ” The patristic evidence for sola Scriptura is, we believe, an overwhelming indictment
