James White vs William Lane Craig: Calvinism vs Molinism on the problem of evil Dec 03, 2021

Show notes

Calvinism and Molinism are two very different ways of understanding God's sovereignty. But which one best addresses the problem of evil?

James White argues that Calvinism - God foreordaining all human behaviour both good and evil - is the more Biblical and coherent view. William (Bill) Lane Craig argues that Molinism - a view which reconciles human freedom and divine sovereignty - is Biblically consistent without making God the author of evil.

Classic Replay: Women and church leadership debate Nov 30, 2021

John Richardson of the conservative Evangelical grouping Reform within the CofE disagrees with female ordination. John Richardson passed away in 2014.
