Final Dividing Line of 2022. Asked for prayer for Dennis Pillay and his wife in South Africa as end-of-life issues confront them, that God would give comfort and strength. Spoke a bit about the self-made, completely designed and intentional "energy crisis" around the world, and finished up responding to Derrick Brite on the role of Thomas in defini…

Mainly focused upon the question of where Reformed Baptists will go in 2023 when it comes to the Neo-Thomist Revival, prompted by comments on line regarding Thomas, Van Til, and Bahnsen. What is the key issue? Scriptural sufficiency, as always!By Dr. James White

Calls today on Eastern Orthodoxy, Roman Catholicism and church history, Ambrose and transubstantiation, how to support Ukrainian believers, God's law, and maintaining theological balance. Enjoy!By Dr. James White

We took the time to consider some of the key questions about the story of Advent in the New Testament, looking at the census, Quirinius, and how we do fair, balanced biblical study. Enjoy!By Dr. James White

Spent time at the start talking about Jerald and Sandra Tanner and the Utah Lighthouse Ministry's years of faithfulness in light of Sandra's retirement. Then we looked at Biden's absurd rhetoric on the profaning of marriage, looked at Phil Vischer's joining in that same absurdity, and then we talked about the German study documenting the direct cor…

It had been a long time since we did a Radio Free Geneva, so today a proper video crossed my path as I was heading in to the studios, so we went with it. We played, and responded to, this video https://youtu.be/rr_83HZ-XPE from "Grace, Mercy, Wrath," and somehow managed to do it in only an hour! Enjoy!…

Didn't go quite a full hour today as I mainly interacted with the clip of Zuby interviewing Andrew Tate and his conversion to Islam. Also commented a bit on the Netherlands cracking down on farmers (enjoy the coming famines all due to the climate hoax being used as a political baseball bat) and an amazing tweet from an RB pastor.…

First forty minutes we considered what it means for the United States government to directly tell God to get lost, illustrated in the profaning of marriage act passed by the Senate yesterday. Then we looked some more at the series of articles on Matthew 24:36 posted back in October.By Dr. James White

Managed to get in a quick program this evening from St. Charles, Missouri. Went over some more evidence of the collapse of secularism and its rebellious insanity, and finished off considering some of the depths of divine revelation about the Father and Son at this time of celebration of the Incarnation.…

Snuck a program in just before Thanksgiving and our next road trip, which begins Friday. Had some material for our home school kids, and then talked about how we read Scripture. Lord willing, see you all again next week from the road!By Dr. James White

Spent the first half of the program looking at the centrality of thanksgiving as a Christian virtue, attitude, and action, and then looked briefly at a recent convert story, and then a tweet on the perpetual virginity of Mary that led to a whole discussion of how traditions develop and why we must be able to examine them by Scripture.…

Third DL of the week! We covered a lot of ground from the Senate and marriage to the assertion that if you are a biblicist you will not be able to fight the current cultural fights. Next Monday we will have some special guests in studio.By Dr. James White

We started off with the Senate's consideration of the evil "Respect for Marriage Act," which, of course, is the Disrespect for Marriage Act, and how the LDS leadership in Salt Lake City capitulated on basic Christian belief on the matter by favoring the passage of the bill. Then we took great calls on what it is to be Reformed, the need to be part …

We messed up planning the timing on recording a new Sweater Vest Dialogue with Doug Wilson, so, instead of pushing the day back an hour, we jumped on it and snuck in a quick Dividing Line before recording the SVD (which will be on the topic of Christian Nationalism). Rambled a good bit looking at the "election" in Maricopa County (sad I have to sta…

Two distinct portions to the program today, the first thoughts after the mid-term elections in the United States (we are a broken and rebellious nation), the second about the use of evidence and presuppositional apologetics somewhat connected to Matt Walsh's appearance with Joe Rogan. I made mention of an online seminar coming up this weekend put o…

Started off with a quick look at the simple crash in Australian live births in December of 2021–hmm, what could explain that I wonder? Then we talked about what seems like a really silly objection to the faith and how to turn it into a door-opening gospel presentation. Then I finished looking at the second in a series of articles from Baptist Dogma…

A wide variety of topics today as the title indicates, possibly prompted by the first cool and rainy weather of the fall here in Phoenix!By Dr. James White

Responded to a brief clip of Dr. Frank Turek talking with Leighton Flowers about Calvinists and evangelism, and then read an article on Pope Francis telling everyone to "go to Thomas." This led to a lengthy discussion of further developments in the Thomistic Downgrade amongst the Reformed. An hour and 15 minutes.…

Today Dr. Joe Boot joined me to talk culture and Christian nationalism and eschatology. Enjoy!By Dr. James White

Looked at some claims about Aquinas by Norm Geisler, including a quick look at John 13:19, and then started to respond to the second in the series from Baptist Dogmatics regarding Matthew 24:36. What is "theological" or "dogmatic" exegesis? Well, we will find out more as we continue our review and response. But not tomorrow, though we plan on doing…

Covered the waterfront today, so to speak, addressing issues such as news about the vaccines, Covid-19 manipulation, transgender insanity, etc., before talking briefly about "Christian Nationalism." Then we addressed a few Craig Carter tweets, and then addressed the new book on "Ecclesial Exegesis." We hope to do two more programs this week, one on…

Why would Francis appoint someone who is pro-choice to an official position with the Vatican? What does this tell us about how tradition can, and does, change over time? We started here, and then moved on to this article from (we think) Drew Sparks, reading and responding to it in its entirety. Very important discussion once again of Scripture, int…

Did about 90 minutes today on a variety of topics but with a bit of a connected theme, digging into the text of John 3:13 as well as looking at Turretin's discussion of the two natures of Christ. Finished up looking at the amazing behavior of folks on line in response to a new theological journal.By Dr. James White

Back to the main studio in Phoenix today as we discussed a bit more theology, then discussed the climate cult, the 1946 Movie, Nikolas Cruz and the death penalty, and the Virginia legislator that wants to make it a felony for parents NOT to affirm a child's "transgender identity."By Dr. James White

Audio Only! We had tech problems and just plain old "you are out in the sticks and the cell connection stinks" problems so we gave up on the video and just concentrated on the audio, which worked well. So, no intro music, etc., but you don't need that. Covered a bit about church and state, about Dan Andrews, and anti-Christian tyrant of Victoria, A…

On the way home from a month on the road, catching up on a few items such as the re-ignition (by one side) of the "Federal Vision" controversy, etc. Then we went through ten points raised by Dr. Van Kleeck in posts written since our debate.By Dr. James White

Did a bit of an impromptu program tonight with most of the students from the early church history class I am teaching at GBTS in Conway today. Thankful for these men!By Dr. James White

Started off with a little ministry report from the G3 Conference and my time in Pennsylvania. Then we talked a little bit about the Master's Seminary controversy, then about the debate from Saturday afternoon, and finished up with a response to Costi Hinn aboutDoug Wilson and Michael Brown. An hour and twenty minutes.…

Covered a lot of ground today from the RV park outside Columbus, Ohio, including a look at the Son of Man in Mark 9, some preview of the upcoming debate with Peter van Kleeck, some discussion of cultural developments such as Illinois declaring open season on its own citizens, the emptiness of "conservatism" without a real world-view foundation, etc…

Commented on the Queen's passing and with her the passing of an era. Then we looked at Colossians 2:9, and then at Walter Brueggemann's comments on the Bible and homosexuality.By Dr. James White

We have no way of knowing what we will be doing for the next few days program wise, but we snuck one in today, looking closely at the infamous Marian prayer going around the net (one I was addressing in the early 1990s). Then we looked at Scott Swain's comments on divine simplicity and James 1:5.By Dr. James White

First hour or so I was joined by Pastor Tobias Riemenschneider, one of the framers of the Frankfurt Declaration (Frankfurtdeclaration.com). We discussed the declaration, its purpose and function. Then I responded to Dr. Craig Carter's inaccurate and unkind comments posted yesterday, once again focusing upon the real issue that is coming out of the …

Started off looking closely at Jude 3-5, then moved on to listen to a section of an interview with Carl Trueman, and then brought it all together to respond to the topic of people destroying their credibility by talking about Socinianism.By Dr. James White

Started off with something I had not planned on doing, discussing the importance of passing on the Culture of Life, and how this relates to God's law, the preservation of Scripture, etc. Then looked at some of the zaniness in the "Reformed" world, including R. Scott Clark's exceptionally hypocritical comments on my response to George Bryson from 20…

We managed to get through a number of excellent calls today on topics ranging from the canon to covenant theology to talking to folks who are being taught by the New Confessionalists, etc. with only one 30 second Internet drop (that, as far as we can see, was on Rich's end, not mine!). Should be able to have another program on Thursday.…

Today we did a Road Trip DL in the rain up here in Colorado, focusing upon the I Am sayings of Jesus and using them as an example of what believing, exegesis looks like in contrast with modern methods, or the supposedly superior "pre-modern" method seen in Scholasticism, etc. Tomorrow we will be doing on "Open Zoom" program with your questions!…

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. It is truly a mystery why this is happening, but, we press forward all the same!…

After a few minutes about the importance of self discipline in the Christian life, I read through three sections from Dr. Nick Needham's 2000 Years of Christ's Power series, one dealing with the Robber Synod, one dealing with the Marburg Colloquy, and the last about the death of Chrysostom. Enjoy!By Dr. James White

45 minute program audio only today due to travel issues. Covered a little church history and a lot about the culture of death.By Dr. James White

Today we dove headlong into one of the greatest chapters in Calvin's Institutes, Book II, chapter 16, where he lays out the great work of Christ. It has been alleged that a "Reformed Biblicist" like myself could not speak as Calvin did. We buried that strawman deep into the soil of truth. Enjoy!By Dr. James White

Today we mainly looked at the first chapter of the London Baptist Confession of Faith and its beautiful and important testimony to the inspiration and sufficiency of Scripture. Hopefully encouraging for us all! I did look at a few statements made by folks at the beginning of the show, but tried to keep most of them relevant to the over-all topic.…

Today I responded to the "storm of love" of 2022, the past 48 hours of nastiness expressed toward me by a wide range of well known Reformed men. Cutting through the verbiage and emotions, we got to the key issues. Lots of folks are asking, "Why is this happening?" Well, hopefully today's program will help clarify some things. Enjoy!…

Looked a bit at the soon to be released Provisionist book against Calvinism, and then considered more about church history, exegesis, tradition, and orthodoxy. Next program will be another Road Trip Dividing Line!By Dr. James White

Only went an hour today but covered a number of topics including some statements by various "progressive" ministers, a passing dismissal of presuppositionalism that said more than its author intended, and finally a quick look at Aquinas on John 10:27-30.By Dr. James White

One hour show today starting off listening to the moral insanity of a "law professor" moving from that into a consideration of what it means to be a nation of law versus a nation of men, drawing from Deuteronomy 19.By Dr. James White

Started off with a fun story about being Official Theologian for Skillet, then we had to get serious. Looked at John 14:28 for a few minutes, and then had to start responding to the Credo article featuring Dr. VanDrunen. Paused that to work through Aquinas' commentary on Romans 4:6-8 as an illustration. More to come!…

Did half an hour on the state of the US on July 4th, and then spent an hour on John 10:30, systems of theology and speculative philosophy, and how we need to be consistent lest we lose the ability to communicate the truth to future generations.By Dr. James White

Started off with some thoughts on the means God has given us to communicate the faith to the coming generations (hint: holy Scripture), and then finally got around to Matthew 24:36 and the published allegation that I am teaching heresy regarding my understanding of that difficult text. Almost 90 minutes.…

Started off, sort of necessarily, looking at the Dobbs decision and the fall out, looking back on my own work in that area since 1989. Then moved to the vicious circularity of the Confessional Bibliology position, and moved from there into a lengthy discussion of the Council of Nicea, and then to an attempt to define the Great Tradition. Over 90 mi…
