Alpha and Omega Ministries

Played a clip where Dr. Turek uses a form of Molinism to respond to a question on predestination. Before or after that (funny how it is hard to remember right after doing the show!) we looked at a graphic where a Roman Catholic says the Orthodox are "Petrified" as in fossilized in time, and what that might mean. Then we spent the rest of the time looking at my exchange with Andrew Isker on the imprisonment and eventual death of Fritz Erbe and others in the sacral period after the Reformation. A useful exposure of where Isker, and those allied with him, are really going.

Lots of different topics covered today, starting with the uproar between Trump and Musk but moving on to wider topics. Then we looked at some comments from Leighton Flowers about "God-fearers," and finished up with a brief discussion about NT Wright's defense of abortion in "extreme circumstances."

Explore the need for church elders to navigate the complexities of social media's impact on faith communities. Delve into Calvin's teachings on the knowledge of God and man's understanding. The discussion stresses the importance of accountability in church leadership amid shifting dynamics. It also highlights modern beliefs' influence on congregations while advocating for core truths. Gain insights into presuppositionalism as a response to contemporary challenges and the differences between divine and human standards of righteousness.

Started off with a few observations about the fact that the US had a shadow, unelected government for four years, and how that should sober anyone up real fast, then we moved into some discussions with the Provisionists about Matthew 23:37 and about Jesus' statement that "you are not my sheep," and finally looked for a few minutes at part of the "How Sacralism Saved the Church" video and how this viewpoint is hopelessly self-contradictory (let alone ahistorical and unbiblical).

Did an hour today prior to joining Eli Ayala to discuss sola scriptura and dove into some church history, the bishop of Rome, the development hypothesis, and other stuff; likewise, briefly looked at the assertion that "sacralism saved the church," another astonishing claim as well.

Joined Luke and Zach from Apologia Radio for a "mashup" show today to go over the Mahler debate and related issues. We ended up talking about the future, the state of the church, and a lot more! Love chatting with my brothers, and hope you enjoy the result!

Had a lot to report on regarding Thursday's debate, and talked a bit about Mahler's abuse of Genesis 9:25-27 as well. Discussed some of the nasty anons like DefiantBaptist and their amazing behavior. Eventually moved to "Catholic Integralism" and Pope Leo XIV, and finished up with some information about the two major (month-plus long) trips in July and September.

Explore the intriguing intersection of the Christian Trinity and modern transgender perspectives, emphasizing thoughtful dialogue over societal controversy. Delve into the challenges posed by anonymous social media and the credibility issues it brings. Reflect on the cancellation of a key conference, while highlighting the importance of supporting local church communities. The speaker shares personal anecdotes, and teases an upcoming debate, encouraging listeners to engage in meaningful theological discussions.

Started off offering Christian condolences to @SavagelyAverage and @KenFiveSolas on social media, both of whom lost their wives suddenly. Talked a bit about grieving. Then moved on to the new Pope, Leo XIV, and about how an earlier Leo, the Xth, was important in the Reformation. Then we looked at some comments from Stephen Wolfe, and Joel Webbon (on very different topics, though, somewhat related).

A clip from Leighton Flowers comparing the Bible and the Qur'an (from four years ago!) popped up and that resulted in a tweet from LF about debating the topic. We examined that, then talked for a while about the exposure of "Woe" from the Stone Choir and amazingly how those supportive of the rehabilitation of the Nazis and Hitler have come to his defense.
