Broadcasting from South Dakota, Dr. White briefly addresses social media reactions to the last program before diving back into textual criticism.

Did the program from Colorado Springs this evening. Started off talking about my new Greek facsimiles, and then had to discuss the NXR insanity, Samuel Sey, etc. Had to use the terms "vile" and "nauseating" a bit too often. Then we geeked out on Greek manuscripts, 2 Peter 1:1, ECM, CBGM, Accordance, and all sorts of other fun Greek and New Testament things. Those who love the deep dive will have a lot of fun with this one! Oh, and here is the link to my Pseudo-Dionysius article, finally! https://gbtseminary.org/wp-content/uploads/2026/10/pro_pastor_journal_fa26_digital_final.pdf
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).
