James White, , Debate, Eschatology, Islam, Personal, Simply Silly, The Dividing Line, Uncategorized, UnitarianismCaught up on a few items on a special DL today. Read through a long message from Twitter that is a good warning about how some eschatologies can become downright dangerous, and then moved back to reviewing aspects of Muhammed Hijab’s opening remarks in the Trinity/Tawhid debate.
The Birmingham Qur’an, Bart Ehrman, Equal Scales, and the Biblical Text of the London Confession
James White, , Islam, Textual Issues, The Dividing LineQuite 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.

Sola Scriptura, Bad Roman Catholic Apologists, and More on The Dividing Line
James White, , The Dividing LineUsed a recently posted Roman Catholic YouTube video, posted by both “Jerusalem Jones” Steve Ray and Dave Armstrong, as the jumping off point to listen to portions of past debates with Gerry Matatics, comments on sola scriptura, etc. Took some calls, one on sola scriptura and the early councils, the other on the idea of an “inspired interpretation.” For those

James White, , Homosexuality, The Dividing LineToday we started with a review of some of the major works that have come out in support of “gay Christianity” and the normalization of homosexuality within Christianity.

This led me to tell the story of Zelph the White Lamanite. You’ll just have to listen. Then we took calls on Islam and Roman Catholicism, so we truly covered a wide spectrum of topics today!
Two Contrasting Views of Islam, and Then a Little on CRISPR (Jumbo Edition)
James White, , Christian Worldview, General Apologetics, Islam, The Dividing LineSpent the first 70 minutes or so contrasting two videos on Islam, one from Talk Islam decrying the violence in Paris, the other the newest ISIS promo video which I call “ISIS Hollywood.” Lots of discussion of sources, interpretation, etc., especially in light of the ridiculous accusation that honestly recognizing differences amongst Muslims makes you “soft” on Islam. Then toward
“The God Who Wasn’t There” Reviewed then Calls
James White, , The Dividing LineMike O’Fallon visited us at our offices so we talked some more about cruise developments and the like to start things off. Then I played sections from Brian Flemming’s The God Who Wasn’t There and noted the horrific argumentation it presents. Also talked a bit about Tim Staples, and fielded a call on NT Wright’s view of justification.
Veneration of Saints & Images Part 1
James White, , Roman Catholicism, The Dividing LineThis debate, which took place in 2002 on Long Island, NY, focuses on the subject of prayer to and veneration of saints and images that represent them. Its participants are Patrick Madrid, a Roman Catholic apologist and editor of Envoy Magazine, and Dr. James White.
