A Response to Dr. Shabir Ally (Part 1)
James White, , UncategorizedAs most of our readers know, I was greatly blessed to have the opportunity to travel to South Africa and engage in a series of six debates recently with defenders of the Islamic faith. This included two debates in mosques, and four at universities. My opponents were Bashir Varnia (in Lenasia), Yusuf Bux (in Johannesburg), Yusuf Ismail (in Potchefstroom) and
Just Some Pictures from Last Night’s Debate in Durban
James White, , UncategorizedStanding in the mosque where Ahmed Deedat taught and worked, presenting John’s Christology—explaining (and defending) the deity of Christ in John 1:1, 8:58, 20:28, etc., and then asking sincere questions of the Qur’an’s understanding of the New Testament, all the while imploring the Muslims in the audience to lay aside their traditions and prejudices and to join with me in
Twitter-Driven DL from Dolores, Colorado
James White, , Ken Wilson, Misc, Mormonism, Open Phones, Personal, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, Reformed Apologetics, Reformed Baptist Issues, Road Trip, Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, Thomism, UncategorizedI am thankful that Twitter was not taken down by today’s huge IT crash/failure, since we took our questions from our audience, and they were great questions! We will definitely have to do it this way in the future when I am traveling (much less technically challenging than trying to take calls when I am remote). Covered a wide variety
Review of Debate on Sola Scriptura & Comments on SDA Doctrine Investigative Judgement
James White, , Roman Catholicism, The Dividing Line, UncategorizedThankfully, this Jesuit priest Pacwa does manage to avoid cheap debating tricks used by some of his peers. That meant James White had to work harder to respond, but also meant that the arguments used by many other Roman apologists were refuted by this honest Roman apologist. Dr. White also makes some very rare comments on eschatology while discussing the
Systematic Theology (Vos)
Jeff Downs, , UncategorizedIf you are looking for an easy to read systematic theology, Vos is not what you want. But, if you are looking for a good solid systematic that will stretch you, for now, look no further than the new Reformed Dogmatics by Geerhardus Vos, translated by Richard B. Gaffin, Jr. The three volumes that are available are on sale this
Deconstructed Baptists, Another Confusing Keller Tweet, Second Run at John 6.
James White, , Christian Worldview, Exegesis, General Apologetics, Post-Evangelicalism, Provisionism, UncategorizedTalked a bit about current events amongst the Southern Baptists, including the vicious attacks from “deconstructed” Baptists (i.e., apostates). We discussed another confusing tweet from Tim Keller, and then I took the time to back up and re-do the discussion on John 6 from the last program. Much clearer, organized, and understandable this time! No technical juggling this time around!
On Calvinist Conundrums from Richmond, Virginia
James White, , UncategorizedWell, as I am stranded in Richmond now (prayers that I will eventually, someday, arrive in Kiev, Ukraine, to teach Church History, would be appreciated!) I wanted to take the opportunity to respond to Michael Brown’s “Calvinist Conundrums” that he posted on FaceBook today. They will allow me to bring up some issues that we discussed in Charlotte a year
