We examined Leighton Flowers’ attempt to a-contextualize John 6 (resulting in the inevitable conclusion that the many deep promises Christians have always claimed from John’s Gospel are actually not for us at all!) and hence to defend synergism and the autonomous will of man. Then we looked at Zakir Hussain’s comments about Deuteronomy 18 and how this could not be fulfilled in Jesus due to Zakir’s misreading of Deuteronomy 34:10.

Pretty much covered the Calvinism debate today with callers, going over a wide variety of background issues. For those who listened to the debate, a useful wrap-up.
r. White called into the Dividing Line show from the Golden Gate Seminary campus where he has been teaching classes on apologetics. Dr. White shares how Roman Catholics (on EWTN) are uncomfortable with exegesis of Romans 1-8 (and 9-11), and how its statement that we are justified apart from the law cannot be in reference to the ceremonial law, but must include

Pressed on with our textual criticism series on the DL today. On the fly I decided to update the link provided below, here, and add a scan of Colossians 1:14, which I discussed on the program. Today we mainly covered examples of scribal error and the sources thereof. Enjoy!
Started off with a discussion of the rise of secular totalitarianism and its inevitable failure, and then moved on to Dr. Paige Patterson’s comments in the SWBTS chapel from last week. Hopefully helpful for all! Here is the YouTube link:
Started off with a little discussion of the lawless Regimes in the West and where all of that must, inevitably, head. Then I played key sections from a webcast hosted by Joe Thorn with special guest Steve Meister where I am accused of, well, all sorts of things.
