Church History Proves the Necessity of Sola Scriptura Apr 21, 2026

Show notes

After some comments on a variety of topics at the top of the program, we dove deep into the following citation from Basil the Great, "because the honor paid to the image passes on to the prototype." We looked at the original context and meaning, and then how it was plucked out of that context and used by John of Damascus, and how that then became central to the arguments of the iconophiles at Nicea II, and hence became the basis of "infallible dogma" for both Roman Catholicism and Eastern Orthodoxy. Not an entertaining program, to be sure, but hopefully a helpful one. Tomorrow we will be doing a Zoom call "open phones" program, so join us then!

Popes and Trump and Webbon Oh My! Apr 16, 2026

Show notes

Covered the waterfront today to be sure! Talked about Trump's healing meme, the Pope and the Muslims, and Joel Webbon playing footsie with Catholics on the Reformation, all because...the Jews!

Aaron Shafovaloff on the New Mormonism Apr 14, 2026

Show notes

Was joined by Aaron Shafovaloff of Mormonism Research Ministry (mrm.org) to discuss developments in Mormonism and to review a clip of a recent LDS discussion wherein the historic view of God is questioned by Blake Ostler, an ostensibly LDS philosopher and attorney, and others in the "New Mormonism" movement. If you have LDS friends and neighbors, you will want to listen to this one!

Geisler's Parable Unpacked and Refuted Apr 09, 2026

Show notes

In light of the resurrection of a particularly bad parable by Jacob Hansen we went over the lengthy rebuttal of the story of the "boys in the pond" parable (Hansen made it girls in a lake), showing that it fails on every level to correspond to biblical truth. We also touched on a good bit of LDS theology as well today.

Final Road Trip DL from Utah Trip Apr 06, 2026

Show notes

Spent the program responding to the craziness that has developed after the debate in Ogden, working through all the details. Good opportunity to discuss debates, integrity, proper use of sources, form of argumentation, etc. Also gave us a chance to discuss the rise of "Neo-Mormonism" in contrast with historic LDS orthodoxy.

Pre-Debate Road Trip Dividing Line Apr 02, 2026

Show notes

Dr. White broadcasts from the road ahead of his debate in Ogden, Utah. He starts with a warning regarding extreme rhetoric surrounding the Hebrew Old Testament and the Greek Septuagint (LXX), before continuing the review of the Austin vs. Hansen cross-examination for debate prep.

Road Trip Dividing Line from Salt Lake #2 Mar 31, 2026

Show notes

Covered a few pressing topics today, from the cultural chaos of utterly unqualified Supreme Court justices to Phil Vischer's question about defining doctrines. Then we talked a bit about "Eucharistic miracles" and an odd little exchange on X about debating the topic, and finally we got just a minute into the cross-ex between Avery Austin and Jacob Hansen in their recent debate. Since I will be debating Jacob in a few days, this is good preparatory thinking.

Road Trip DL from Salt Lake City Mar 27, 2026

Show notes

First "real" program from the Mobile Command Center! Musings on secularism, the death of the West, and God's judgment.

First DL in the New Mobile Command Center! Mar 24, 2026

Show notes

Jumped into our new 5th wheel to test out all the work Rich has been doing putting together a rapidly deployable and usable mobile studio in the wonderful office space in our new unit. Went well! He has more tweaking to do, and I have a lot of pictures to put up yet, but we are started. Headed to Utah on Thursday, debate on Saturday with Shabir Ally. Covered a bunch of topics from the Apocrypha to the Qur'an to Phil Vischer! Hope to do another program on Thursday after six plus hours on the road.

Corrie Ten Boom Attacked, Scholarship Under the Lordship of Christ Mar 19, 2026

Show notes

Started off with a disgusting post from Michael Spangler attacking Corrie Ten Boom and the book, The Hiding Place. Just astonishing how Jew hatred rots the brain. Then we moved on to Dan McClellan's response piece, but spent most of today just discussing doing scholarship under the Lordship of Christ, and how this determines how you are going to interact with the text of Scripture. We will have to continue that response next week, hopefully from the Mobile Command Center!
