Current Events and Controversies Followed by Radio Free Geneva!
James White, , Exegesis, Racialism, Radio Free Geneva, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Did thirty minutes on current events (the ethnicity discussion mainly) before firing up the Radio Free Geneva theme and tackling two videos, one from Greg Boyd, and the other from Kevin Thompson, both aimed at refuting Calvinism. Boyd’s was the general discussion, Thompson pretended that Reformed exegetes ignore the phrase “in him” at Ephesians 1:4. We debunked that claim. Here

Rebuttal of Hank Hanegraaff on the Perpetual Virginity of Mary
James White, , Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Eastern Orthodoxy, Exegesis, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line
Over the weekend I was directed to a video presentation of Hank Hanegraaff not only promoting the perpetual virginity of Mary, but apologizing for having ever done otherwise. I felt it was appropriate, and actually necessary, to respond to his arguments. But, we started off with the historical background you will never hear from those promoting the belief. An hour

The Dizzying Effect of the Tiber on the Mind
James White, , Roman Catholicism
More specifically, I no longer see the Reformed doctrines of Sola Scriptura and Sola Fide as faithfully reflecting what the Bible teaches, which is why I will, Lord willing, be received into full communion with the Catholic Church sometime in the next several months. Let’s ponder this a moment. Scripture never directs us to a higher authority than God’s own

The “Philosophy” of Sola Scriptura
James White, , Roman Catholicism
My Google Blog Search pulled this comment up: If you read a little more on the blog, you’ll see that at one time I had a sola scriptura philosophy. Then I realized such a philosophy is unbiblical. I couldn’t find anywhere in the Bible where the Bible says that the Bible is the sole authority for all matters related to

Archbishop Vigano Torches Francis, Open Phones
James White, , Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Misc, Musings, Open Phones, Pastoral Theology, Personal, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
We had to take time to read through Archbishop Virgano’s utter torching of Francis and the current Vatican regime at the start of the program, then we took calls on the following topics: conjectural emendation in the Old Testament, issues relating to annihilationism/conditionalism, Shoemaker’s critical study of the Qur’an, advice for a new father, developments in Mormonism, and raising godly

Paul Owen: Leading Defender of Roman Catholicism
James White, , Roman Catholicism
Dave Armstrong has it right: Dr. Paul Owen of Montreat College is, in fact, one of the best friends the Roman Catholic apologetics community has ever come across. It is always good to have folks “inside” the other camp to come to your aid, sort of like a fifth column (“men will arise from your own ranks“). The tactic is

Uber-Mega Dividing Line: Sola Scriptura, and Islamic Denials of the Deity of Christ
James White, , Exegesis, General Apologetics, Islam, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line
Went 135 minutes today (hence the “uber-mega” designation) covering two primary topics: sola scriptura defined and defended against a recent attack upon it by Karlo Broussard of Catholic Answers (first 90 minutes), and then a “live” review of a new video against the deity of Christ from a Muslim perspective (link). A lot of foundational, basic teaching today that we think is

Open Phones on the Dividing Line!
James White, , Church History, General Apologetics, Godly Disciplines, Pastoral Theology, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Roman Catholicism, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line
Did a little church history (the Renaissance) and then went to the phones, taking calls on Lutheran baptismal regeneration, Jesus’ words about the day of judgment, grieving and evangelism, hyperdispensationalism, Titus 1:6, the longer ending of Mark, regeneration in the OT, Isaiah’s judgment oracle, and early christian writers. Whew! 1:45 makes it an almost mega jumbo edition, I guess! Here
