The Birmingham Qur’an, Bart Ehrman, Equal Scales, and the Biblical Text of the London Confession
James White, , Islam, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line
Quite a range of things on a Jumbo (90 minute) DL today: started out on the new Qur’an fragments, the big story while I was away from Phoenix. Discussed Bart Ehrman’s less-than-unbiased commentary, and finished up with a discussion of whether I am violating my own confession of faith by not using the TR. Included some, shall we say, straightforward

Finishing Off Deedat’s Horrible Arguments, Paul Williams and Non-Christian “Christians,” and Brian Zahnd: Marcionite!
James White, , The Dividing Line
Took me a little longer than I expected to make it through the last half of Deedat’s horrific “crucifiction” arguments, but we sure did run into some real whoppers on his part as far as simple dishonesty goes. Then I looked briefly at Paul Williams promoting non-Christian Christianity, then we started looking at the very recent “Calvinist debate,” starting with looking

Miscellaneous Topics and Calls
James White, , The Dividing Line
Tackled some “that Pope Francis is quite the guy” topics at the start today, including the sighting of Rick Warren, paddling about in the Tiber River as well. Then took calls on various topics such as inerrancy and Tony Campolo. Here is the YouTube link:

Today on the DL
James White, , The Dividing Line
Today on the Dividing Line we took a call on how to witness to Mormon missionaries, another with the suggestion that I do some DL’s on the Da Vinci Code based on my PowerPoint presentation of it (good idea!), and I also spoke about a New York Times article on abortion, and then discussed Sura 4, Ayah 157 in the

Critical Theory, Race, Reconciliation, then Phone Calls on Great Topics
James White, , Atheism, Christian Worldview, Exegesis, Post-Evangelicalism, Racialism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Started off reading a comment from Dr. James Lindsay about Critical Race Theory and the concept of “reconciliation,” and followed up with some more discussion on the “woke church.” Then we took calls on such topics as detecting if your church is going down the “woke” path and when you would have to leave, where we have to draw the

They Went Out from Us: Jahaziel’s Excuses for Abandoning the Faith
James White, , The Dividing Line
Spent most of the hour reviewing the excuses rapper Jahaziel posted for denying Christianity (not surprisingly found them wanting), and then looked at an abortion doctor who is “proud” of her “service” as a “Christian.” Last DL of the year—Lord willing, see you again January 5th!

D’Souza vs. Barker Demonstrates “Theology Matters”
James White, , The Dividing Line
I really wanted to provide a useful apologetic discussion on the program today, so we started half an hour earlier. I went through some key theological foundations to apologetics from Van Til for the first twenty minutes, then reviewed key elements of the D’Souza/Barker debate. I then finished up with some discussion of Barker’s claims in his book, godless, especially
