Today on the Dividing Line
06/28/2012 - James White
Started off the first half of a 90 minute program reviewing the incredible behavior of the students who attended the Douglas Wilson presentation at the University of Indiana, Bloomington, commenting on the incredibly hypocritical nature of the "inclusive/diversity" crowd (who are neither inclusive, nor supportive of diversity). Played a few audio clips from the audience questions, and then commented on a Canadian professor's promotion of the "denormatization" of heterosexuality. Then we tried to start a Radio Free Damascus, but, uh, had, shall we say, technical difficulties (remember, we do this live), but eventually got back to reviewing Abdullah Kunde's comments. Here's the program.18:17:11 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Today on a Very Important Radio Free Geneva: Ed Young Jr.'s Outrageous Rant Against Straw-Man Calvinism
06/26/2012 - James White
It was the quintessential example of why we do Radio Free Geneva: a very popular speaker, a huge dose of tradition, a truckload of ignorance, and in this case, a barrel full of anger, all producing a twelve minute long rant "warning" the members of Fellowship Church against that horrible different gospel of Calvinism. It took 90 minutes to work through the "presentation," but I know for me, the more I heard of it, the worse it got. Be prepared to be amazed, or not, depending on your background. And obviously, if you know anyone impacted by Young's teaching, you might wish to direct them to this program. Might be the start of something!

Today on a Caller-Driven Dividing Line
06/22/2012 - James White
We got our phone system repaired and installed! Yeah! So, started off with a quick review of a recent debate on annihilationism, then took calls. The first two were on the same subject, so we covered a lot of ground on the topic today. The last call was on dealing with Jehovah's Witnesses, especially in reference to Colossians 1:15.Here's the program.

Today on the Dividing Line: Secularism's Totalitarianism
06/19/2012 - Micah Burke
Today I launched into a discussion of the background of the term "secularism" and the fact that today's aggressive version, which has infected Western culture, is totalitarian in nature. There can be no neutrality from its view, or ours. I then walked through a graphic blog presentation of why we should adopt homosexual marriage. Here is the download.We will not have a DL on Thursday, but we will do our best to have one on Friday via Skype. If our phone system arrives back to the office in time we may even get to take phone calls again! We will see.

Your Liberties and Freedoms: Hanging by a Thread
06/14/2012 - James White
Today on the Dividing Line we discussed the ever increasing attacks upon our freedoms---religious freedoms and freedoms of speech---and the growing threat of state-sponsored secularism. We played a clip from this morning's "The Briefing" with Dr. Albert Mohler where he discussed the New Mexico case where once again the homosexual lobby is using the cooperation of the secular left to silence and suppress Christian expression. Then I addressed the graphic (posted earlier today) and worked through the texts it cites from the holiness code in the book of Leviticus. Another hopefully useful program designed to assist you in giving a clear witness in the midst of an ever more aggressively anti-Christian society. Here's the program.19:50:47 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Today on the Dividing Line
06/12/2012 - James White
Started off with an impromptu Radio Free Damascus, debuting our newly made theme song! Spent half an hour continuing our examination of Abdullah Kunde's comments from the 2012 debate. Then we moved on to respond to this particular video clip:We then concluded with a brief review of Carrie Underwood's endorsement of the redefinition of marriage. Here's the program.

Today on a Technically Challenged Dividing Line
06/05/2012 - James White
Our ISP once again chose the most unusual time to give us issues, so we had a lot of coming and going as far as the stream was concerned, but we managed to get through the program anyway. Covered...a lot of stuff. Talked a bit about the Called to Confusion blog, Carl Trueman's article today, how to record books to mp3 to listen to while riding/driving etc., and then we went back to the Harry Knox presentation from 2008. Very eclectic, to be sure. Here's the program.13:10:12 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Today on a Radio Free Geneva: The Traditional Southern Baptist View of Salvation?
06/01/2012 - James White
As announced, we did a special "extra" DL this week, a Radio Free Geneva discussing the aforementioned statement defining "the" traditional Southern Baptist view of the gospel. In other words, we reviewed the very poorly written, confusing, straw-man filled document produced by a group of traditional synergists in the SBC. If you think I am being just a bit harsh, please remember something: these men include some whose credibility is more than suspect (Emir Caner), and who have been corrected on their misapprehensions more than once, but refuse to abandon their errors even when incapable of providing a defense (David Allen), as well as others who just simply should know better. We are facing some mighty big challenges in our culture, and yet we have these folks running around lighting up theological straw men, all hoping their audience remains in the dark as to the real issues? Forgive me for being just a little bit less than patient and snuggly. The matter is vitally important---God's truth always is---and this cavalier, shallow, self-contradictory and simply unbiblical document (did you know there is no difference between the effectual call and the universal call of the gospel? Yeah, try to fit that into Romans 8:29-30!) is in no way a positive contribution to the debate. So, we put in about 90 minutes to go through and provide a response. In the process, Rich and I sang a duet (seriously), and I managed to insult all the ladies in the audience by making the factual observation that men are genetically designed to make cool noises (like machine gun fire, jet airplanes, motorcycles, that kind of thing) and ladies are not. You'll have to listen to figure that part out. Here's the program.
