I decided to tackle one of Dan Barker’s favorite topics straight on in the Sunday morning sermon at PRBC. What about those difficult texts where God commands the literal extermination of an entire tribe, or city, or even nation?
We finally got a start on our response to James Brownson’s presentations on Romans 1 today on the Dividing Line, focusing upon how to recognize how scholars can twist and turn the data to allow them to get to their desired conclusions. We examined Brownson’s attempt to disconnect Paul from Genesis and instead demand that Paul’s use of “nature” should
Well, let me tell you, Rich is one happy camper. He got the bright idea today, really only a few hours before we started, to use Zoom to allow folks to call in to the program today. And…it worked. So I started off with about 20 minutes or so in response to a King James Only advocate giving a completely
Went just under Mega length today (about 1:50) with three topics: the news coming out last evening that Hank Hanegraaff of CRI has entered the Eastern Orthodox Church for the first 45 minutes or so, then an examination of some of the claims made by Dr. David Allen in his book on the atonement, specifically by name in response to
I know that one of the most oft-repeated questions I have dealt with is, “How does one explain, or even understand, the doctrine of the Trinity?” Indeed, few topics are made such a football by various groups that, normally, claim to be the “only” real religion, and who prey upon Christians as “convert fodder.” Be that as it may, when

Then we moved back to the Russell Moore/Andy Stanley discussion, once again noting fundamental issues of ecclesiology and Scriptural authority lying at the root of the
About an 80 minute version of the show today responding to the webcast put out by Leighton Flowers, Soteriology 101, on March 29, 2016, where he interviewed Brian Abasciano concerning my statements about 1 John 5:1. Unfortunately, neither Flowers nor Abasciano did their homework and replied only to the very end of my comments, ignoring 40 minutes of presentation, and
Decided to fire up a Radio Free Geneva today to go over the pile of heresies and errors propounded by street preacher Jesse Morrell recently down in Texas in a conversation with Pastor Emilio Ramos. Morrell is an open theist/Pelagian/original sin denying/sinless perfectionist, so the combination of errors results in amazing teachings! A useful opportunity to illustrate falsehoods. Then we
I remember passing notes with a friend of mine in high school. We were debating that age old doctrine of eternal security. He didn’t believe in it, and I did.
