Show Notes
Went long today but covered a lot of territory. Looked at the horrific video from Tibet/China and the sudden floods and talked about theodicy, then moved to Dale Partridge pretending to be an Anglican and the Ogden crew hiding from the reality of having Alex Jones and Harrison Smith speaking at a "Christ is King" conference. Finished by looking at Webbon's incredible threat against Phil Johnson wherein he conflated the Great Commission with Christless Nationalism.

Went back over some issues relating to Galatians 3 before beginning a presentation I will continue on the road on the topic of the dating of the CD Corpus.
An hour and forty five minute program today taken up with two major issues: first, reviewing how debates are supposed to be judged, and using that as a framework to focus upon the key issues in the debate from Saturday. This led to a review of Truglia's claims about Galatians 3:1, and we finished up with a lengthy, in-depth review of Basil's argument that immediately brings us to his words in 18.45, abused by the 2nd Nicene Council.
Split the program in half today, covering the continuing developments in Mormonism, and the MIEs (Mormon Intellectual Elites) in contrast with the old view of authority and spiritual guidance. Then I gave an overview of what I expect in Saturday's debate, including putting Basil's words from On the Holy Spirit 18.45 on the big screen and discussing his original meaning in contrast with today's use of his words.
Probably should have gone back to Dositheos, but covered two other topics instead, looking at the wild actions of the Christless Nationalists first, and then looking at Dan McClellan's statement that "the Jesus of the Gospels" was a false prophet, and how the kind of critical scholarship he represents is eating the very heart out of Mormonism (and every other religion it infects).
James started off with a brief discussion of the current state of Mormonism and then went to callers. Call topics included the Litany of Loreto and Marian Devotion, John 1:12-13, and how to witness to LDS Missionaries. Dan Chapa called in asking about Acts 2:23. The program finished with a caller asking about academic LDS studies and if James has looked into them.
