Consistency and Fairness Once Again; Then More on the Comma and Textual Criticism
James White, , General Apologetics, Islam, Textual Issues, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters
Managed to sneak in a third Dividing Line this week (since I have no idea what the next few weeks will bring, for, uh, medical reasons).

James White, , The Dividing Line
Shared some wonderful stories from my trip to Pryor, meeting folks, etc., like I used to get to do before 2020!

James White, , Church Fathers, Church History, Debate, Ken Wilson, Molinism, Open Theism, Personal, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Theology Matters, Thomism
My apologies for all the coughs and sniffs, I actually feel pretty good, but the voice and sinuses—not so much.
