Can't Even Start to Cover the Range of Topics in Today's Jumbo DL
11/29/2012 - James White
But I can tell you the last 45 minutes was dedicated to finishing off Paul Williams' opening statement (finally). The 45 minutes before that allowed me to empty out my "DL Materials" bookmark folder---all sorts of incredible stuff about how quickly Western culture is embracing rebellion and depravity. A study in Christian worldview application and defense, to be sure. Here's the program.17:21:28 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Yesterday on the Dividing Line
11/28/2012 - James White
I did not intend to spend pretty much the entire hour finishing up our response to Jason Stellman, but I did. TurretinFan did not join me, as I really did not think it would take as long as it did. But, we provided nearly four hours worth of response---a response Jason Stellman says he is not even going to listen to. He recently commented: "I actually haven’t listened to James’s podcast, so I don’t know what he says about me there. My guess it would be hard to listen to it without getting upset or frustrated, so I have just decided to ignore it." There you go---he wouldn't engage in a defense of Roman claims, but, then claims no one offered compelling arguments, and then when you provide refutation---well, he can't be bothered. Not the first time I've encountered this kind of attitude---joining "infallible" groups has that effect on folks. As much as I'd like to see Jason rescued from Romanism, whether he ever listens doesn't matter. Others need to know what the issues are and how Rome's answers are empty. Of course, if he goes "on the circuit" and especially if he decides to start debating---well, then he needs to be taking the time to listen to what is being said in response to his claims. In any case, I did start off the program with a few minutes on Paul Williams and his recent debate with Chris Green, as well. Here's the program.20:30:45 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Today on Radio Free Geneva: Winford Claiborne and the Church of Christ on "Calvinism"
11/23/2012 - James White
Only got about seven minutes into the presentation of this talk on Free Will from Church of Christ minister Winford Claiborne, but I think most folks will agree---that was far enough! Lots of discussion of the nature of God's decree and what "unconditional election" actually means. Hope it is helpful to those who are in dialogue with folks who would have a deep prejudice against "Calvinism" due to teaching like this. Here's the program.

Radio Free Geneva on "Black Friday"
11/21/2012 - James White
Not into the shopping scene? Me either. So, how about a Radio Free Geneva in the morning to help start working off all those extra calories? I will be responding to the "Free Will" sermon found here by Winford Claiborne, a Church of Christ minister who demonstrates that you can oppose Calvinism but not have a clue what Calvinism actually teaches. Join us for an early morning edition at 11am EST, 8am on the Left Coast.

The Treacherous Waters of the Tiber: TurretinFan and I Review Jason Stellman's Slide into Romanism
11/15/2012 - James White
TurretinFan joined me today as we began reviewing Jason Stellman's recent appearance on the Called to Confusion podcast. Jason Stellman is a former PCA minister who has turned his back on the gospel of grace and bowed the knee to the Papacy. Vitally important issues are raised and addressed in this program. We will continue our review in the near future. Here's the program.Tomorrow at 12pm EST I will do another episode of the Dividing Line, continuing our review of the Licona/Martin debate.

Today on the Dividing Line
11/13/2012 - James White
The Big Brains of Brussels (i.e., the EU) are worried about "stereotyping" the family---we can't have kids thinking a mommy and a daddy are the norm! That's heterosexism, you know. Yeah---tell me about it. Then we looked at some post-election issues relating to the great "unity" brought about by denying sola scriptura. The last half hour I spent looking at Hebrews 6 and making application to those who have stood in our midst and preached the gospel, but who then trade it away for the trinkets of Rome, announcing that on Thursday I will again, Deo volente, be joined by my dear brother TurretinFan to discuss the recent appearance of former Presbyterian minister Jason Stellman on the Called to Confusion podcast. We may be starting early on Thursday, probably getting rolling at 5:30pm EST so as to have enough time to get through at least a good portion of the interview. Here's the program.19:57:12 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -

Continuation of Licona/Martin Dialogue on the Deity of Jesus on Today's DL
11/08/2012 - James White
I resisted the temptation to comment on the election on the DL today, as there is so much that could be observed, but instead stuck to our review of the Licona/Martin dialogue on whether Jesus recognized His own deity. I think this is an important exercise in examining the presuppositions of what is truly "worldly wisdom." Here's the program.17:54:31 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
Yesterday on the Dividing Line
11/07/2012 - James White
On an election day version of the Dividing Line we pretty much avoided the topic and instead started listening to the debate between Mike Licona and Dale Martin on whether Jesus believed Himself to be divine. A fascinating insight into a "post-modern" mindset, Martin, himself a homosexual, likewise confesses to being a Trinitarian Christian, yet, he doesn't believe Jesus believed Himself to be divine! A study in contradiction. Here's the program.And don't forget the WayBack Machine, streaming Dividing Lines from 1998 onward 24/7! You can listen on the Flash Player found here.

Yesterday on the Dividing Line: Potpourri Max!
11/02/2012 - James White
I can't even start listing the topics from yesterday. I had 8-10 tabs loaded up and I think we threw a few other topics in for the fun of it. And, given a cold and hence some real difficulty speaking, I didn't talk quite as fast as normal! But hopefully some useful information anyway. Here's the program.09:51:31 - Category: The Dividing Line - Link to this article -
