1946: The Movie
David Gushee Reviewed and Refuted
James has asked me to compile the complete response to David Gushee’s ‘Reformation Project’ speech. Here you will find the three episodes in order compiling a full five hours of response. Here are the YouTube versions of the same programs:
Mega DL Continuing Response to Matthew Vines
I was only going to discuss Matthew Vine’s “Gay Christian” presentation for the first hour, but since we were in the middle of the biblical discussion, I went ahead and continued, so we did a full two hours on the subject, covering Genesis 19, Leviticus 18:22 and 20:13, and...
“Gay Christianity” Refuted!
The complete response to Matthew Vines is now available as a single program. Yes its five hours and nine minutes long, but the world needs to hear this message. Share it with your friends and relatives. We’ve titled it “Gay Christianity” Refuted.
The Hill to Die On, For There are No Other Hills
So I wandered into a little restaurant/pub type place near my hotel in Sydney this afternoon to grab a bite to eat. I got a notification on my phone about an article posted by my daughter Summer, so I opened it up and began to read. I began co-authoring...
A Twitter Dialogue with Matthew Vines
It took months, but Matthew Vines and I finally exchanged a series of tweets about my standing invitation to him to debate his claims. It began with someone informing me that I was being mentioned; I then searched for the tweets, and the conversation began: @DrOakley1689 Care to join...
The Revisionist History of Homosexuality in the Bible Debunked, A Few Other Notes
Went into the big studio today to use the board to nail down a full response to the currently viral story about the alleged history of the Bible and the meaning of arsenokoites at 1 Corinthians 6 and 1 Timothy 1. Since this kind of falsehood gets passed around...
Ahmed Deedat
Refuting the Shallow Arguments of Zakir Naik
As most of you know, Zakir Naik is a wildly popular Islamic speaker in the mode of Ahmed Deedat. Unfortunately, Naik knows better than to debate those who can demonstrate his errors. Which is why he remains so popular, it seems! But he cannot hide his many falsehoods. David...
Zakir Naik Illustrates the Dual Face of Islam When in the Public Square
Very interesting contrast from Zakir Naik’s own mouth (again illustrating why Naik refuses to debate those who could expose his arguments).
Zakir Naik’s Claims on Muhammad in the Bible
Here is my third and final response to Zakir Naik’s appearance on The Deen Show. What I did was take my opening statement from my debate with Shabir Ally on this topic from London in November of last year, along with my comments on Deuteronomy 18:18 from the preceding...
Shabir Ally
Debate: Tawhid or Trinity: Is God One or Three Divine Persons? with Shabir Ally at Georgia Tech, Atlanta, Georgia 11/13/2019
On November 13, 2019, James White debated Shabir Ally at Georgia Tech in Atlanta, GA on the topic Tawhid or Trinity: Is God One or Three Divine Persons?
Response to Dr. Shabir Ally, Part IV (Conclusion)
I hurry to finish my response to the article published by Dr. Shabir Ally shortly after our debate at the University of Pretoria in South Africa in early October. This is the fourth, and thankfully, final portion of my response. Dr. Ally continued: James was clearly in a bind....
Debate: Did the Earliest Followers of Jesus Believe in His Deity? Shabir Ally at University of Pretoria, South Africa 10/8/2013
Islam
A Few Loose Ends and then the Archbishop of Detroit at a New Mosque
Dr. White ties up a few loose ends regarding recent developments out of Ogden before shifting focus to Archbishop Edward Weisenburger speaking at a new mosque opening in Dearborn.

Dr. White covers the waterfront today! Topics include Donald Trump's healing meme, the Pope's comments regarding Islam, and Joel Webbon's troubling remarks on the Reformation and Roman Catholicism.
King James Onlyism
Great Open Zoom Calls!
Dr. White hosted another live Zoom call show today, taking great questions on a wide variety of topics! Tune in for discussions mainly focused on church history and Eastern Orthodoxy, plus an extended ending covering AI fakes and sticking to God's standards of justice.
Baptists for the Holy Roman Empire, the Variant at 1 Timothy 3:16
As promised, I looked over the “Sacralism on Steroids” graphic put out by the “New Christian Right” putting Donald Trump as Constantine (seriously) and noted the simplistic history that always accompanies these kinds of movements. Then we looked at the variant at 1 Timothy 3:16 as it was addressed...
Priests and Confession, Real Purgatory, TR Onlyism, and More!
A little bit of everything for folks today, from reviewing a thread promoting priestly confession to reading through a description of purgatory to listening to Dr. Riddle promoting TR Onlyism.
Bible Transmission
Confucianism, Islam, and Christianity – One Point of Contrast
Qin Shi Huang (260 – 210 BC) is the most prominent of the Chinese emperors. He united China through conquest, began the Great Wall of China, and had the Terra Cotta warriors built. He’s significant to Confucianism – and especially the textual transmission of Confucius’ works – because toward...
Atheism
Road Trip DL from Golden Again
Broadcasting from Golden once more! Dr. White touches on the cultural decline of the West, Bart Ehrman's naturalistic materialism, and his latest article responding to the Nickitopoulos/Truglia theory on Pseudo-Dionysius. We then spend the bulk of the program dismantling Cameron Bertuzzi's repackaged, yet long-refuted, canon argument.
Why Is Your Soul Distressed? Then, A Bit More with Calvin
Decided I needed a break from the battle so as to remember the foundational stuff—we can get back to the rest next week, Lord willing. Looked at a few Psalms and just considered what is eternal and important–and will be important next week, next month, and 100 years from...
Mockery is not a Christian Virtue, then, the Carson/Huff Discussion
Last Road Trip DL for 2024 coming from Holbrook, Arizona this evening. Started off looking at Joel Webbon’s defense both of “anons” and using them to mock people “right off X,” naming Owen Strachan as an example. Then we discussed the encounter between Wes Huff, a Christian scholar and...

Dr. White splits today's program in half, beginning with an examination of the MIEs (Mormon Intellectual Elites) and how they contrast with the old view of authority and spiritual guidance in Mormonism. Then, he previews Saturday's upcoming debate, focusing on Basil the Great’s words in On the Holy Spirit...
Christless Nationalists Send Samuel Sey to Hell, Mormonism Cannot Survive Dan McClellan
Dr. White discusses the recent actions of "Christless Nationalists" directed toward Samuel Sey. He then analyzes Dan McClellan's claim that the Jesus of the Gospels was a false prophet, demonstrating how this brand of critical scholarship destroys the foundation of Mormonism and any other religion it infects.
Mormonism, Marian Devotion, Acts 2:23, and Caller Q&A
Dr. White looks at the current splintering of Mormonism into various self-prophet groups. Next, he examines a statement posted by Leighton Flowers regarding Judas and Pilate, demonstrating how it essentially boils down to Open Theism in disguise.

Hayden Carroll’s Claims, Then Jeremiah 18 and the Potter’s Freedom
Dr. White spends the first half of today's program discussing the political and cultural challenges facing the US as the mid-terms approach. He then transitions to apologetics, examining a clip of LDS apologist Hayden Carroll misrepresenting theologians Millard Erickson and Charles Ryrie during a dialogue on the Trinity.
The God of the Decree, the God of the Word (series)
Part 2: Three Cases, Tested Where We Left Off Part 1 built the foundation. God’s goodness is not a matter of decree but of nature, necessary rather than chosen, expressed rather than manufactured. That answers the metaphysical half of Ellis’ sentence. It does not yet answer the half built...

The post was written by Jenna Ellis, and...

Refuting the “Novelty” Claim: Augustine, Cyprian, and the Gift of Faith
This may be the final post in my series discussing some of the claims from Dr. Allen’s book. Regarding this specific post, from what I can tell, Dr. Allen has never discussed the verse that may be one of the most used by Augustine to defend God’s gift of...
Jimmy Akin “Destroys” Me by Ignoring my Argument, CS Lewis, then Decree in Scripture
Dr. White goes a bit long today to cover a lot of ground, including more of Dinesh D'Souza's silliness regarding C.S. Lewis and Total Depravity. He then addresses Matt Fradd's claim that Jimmy Akin "destroyed" him (despite Akin ignoring the actual argument), and finishes with an exegesis of four...
Those Who Fight Against the Decree Identified, and then Back to Dositheos

D’Souzian Levels of Hubris, Back to Dositheos

Quick Notes from the Net, Then to the EO Position on Free Will
Dr. White touches on a few items from the web before diving into the Eastern Orthodox position on free will. By examining the Confession of Dositheos, he demonstrates how it essentially mirrors modern Provisionist arguments, making the "swim across the Bosporus" a very short one for today's Provisionists.
Upcoming Debate, Yes, Christ is King, and Motivation and Action

Theology Matters
A Dialogue with Grok 3.0
A number of times over the past year I have ended up in discussions with Grok about theology, transcendent reality, and it’s task of being “maximally truthful.” It doesn’t take long for the conversation to become presuppositional, I can assure you of that, and it does so at Grok’s...
Run From Andrew Tate
I confess, this entire issue leaves me astonished. Sure, it is part of judgment, yes, our hands are covered with blood, so yes, the Lord is just to turn us upon ourselves. I get all of that. “We need examples of masculinity” is all I hear. Look, the family,...
The Sin of Worry

1946 Movie Producers Doing a Road Trip
So I just got an email from the promoters of the 1946 Movie—the film that has face-planted, badly, since its “release” months ago. For some reason, its producers have kept it next to impossible to actually see, and, having seen it myself, I know why (it’s horrible). They are...
On the “Socinian Method”
Well, I guess there has been some progress. At least now I know that yes, brother Briggs was making reference to me, hence, I am a dangerous man to be warned about globally, evidently. I doubt I will get much in the way of serious response about the allegation...
On the Decree and the Actions of God’s Elect
You can tell when certain folks have just completely run out of meaningful commentary and argumentation, or, never possessed any to begin with. When people argue that someone who accepts the biblical teaching of God’s sovereign decree, election, the perfection of the atonement, etc., should, as a result, not...

Dr. White returns to address further issues relating to Galatians 3 before launching into a new presentation—one he will continue while on the road—focusing on his article regarding the dating of the CD (Corpus Dionysiacum) Corpus.
Debate Review: Galatians 3:1, Basil’s Real Argument
In this hour and forty-five-minute episode, Dr. White reviews Saturday's debate by examining how debates are properly judged and focusing on the core issues presented. He addresses Craig Truglia's claims regarding Galatians 3:1 and provides an in-depth analysis of Basil's argument leading up to section 18.45, exposing how his...
Pre-Debate Dividing Line: The MIEs versus the Old Apostles and Prophets of Mormonism, then Debate Overview
Dr. White splits today's program in half, beginning with an examination of the MIEs (Mormon Intellectual Elites) and how they contrast with the old view of authority and spiritual guidance in Mormonism. Then, he previews Saturday's upcoming debate, focusing on Basil the Great’s words in On the Holy Spirit...
Christless Nationalists Send Samuel Sey to Hell, Mormonism Cannot Survive Dan McClellan
Dr. White discusses the recent actions of "Christless Nationalists" directed toward Samuel Sey. He then analyzes Dan McClellan's claim that the Jesus of the Gospels was a false prophet, demonstrating how this brand of critical scholarship destroys the foundation of Mormonism and any other religion it infects.
Theology Matters
A Dialogue with Grok 3.0
A number of times over the past year I have ended up in discussions with Grok about theology, transcendent reality, and it’s task of being “maximally truthful.” It doesn’t take long for the conversation to become presuppositional, I can assure you of that, and it does so at Grok’s...
Run From Andrew Tate
I confess, this entire issue leaves me astonished. Sure, it is part of judgment, yes, our hands are covered with blood, so yes, the Lord is just to turn us upon ourselves. I get all of that. “We need examples of masculinity” is all I hear. Look, the family,...
The Sin of Worry
Anxiety. Worry. I will confess, it is a besetting sin. I am not sure why. Maybe I picked it up from my parents, not because they expressed it to me, but because I was astute enough to recognize how difficult their lives were. How little we had, and how...
The Gracious Lens of Romans 1
One of the strongest arguments I know for the inspiration of Scripture is Romans 1. Why? Because all of mankind in all of his many centuries of writing about himself has never come close to the depth and accuracy of Paul’s diagnosis of man, the creature, in rebellion against...
On Presidential Immunity and the SCOTUS
Rational people had come to the same conclusion SCOTUS did on the topic of Presidential immunity for, well, as long as the republic has existed. You cannot have a functioning Presidency if the President can be imprisoned after his term for doing what he had to do as President....
1946 Movie Producers Doing a Road Trip
So I just got an email from the promoters of the 1946 Movie—the film that has face-planted, badly, since its “release” months ago. For some reason, its producers have kept it next to impossible to actually see, and, having seen it myself, I know why (it’s horrible). They are...
On the “Socinian Method”
Well, I guess there has been some progress. At least now I know that yes, brother Briggs was making reference to me, hence, I am a dangerous man to be warned about globally, evidently. I doubt I will get much in the way of serious response about the allegation...
On the Decree and the Actions of God’s Elect
You can tell when certain folks have just completely run out of meaningful commentary and argumentation, or, never possessed any to begin with. When people argue that someone who accepts the biblical teaching of God’s sovereign decree, election, the perfection of the atonement, etc., should, as a result, not...
About that 70 Million Number on Twitter
Well, I should probably just get on my bike and let this whole thing blow over, but, I really can’t. There are some important points that, as is normally the case, are being lost in the fog of battle. Maybe someday someone will go, “Hey, there were some folks...

The Mormon Law of Eternal Progression
I spoke on the topic of the “eternal law of progression” in Mormonism in Anchorage this morning. Here is the video.

A Test for the Aaronic Priest
Are you an Aaronic priest? Possibly you are a Latter- day Saint who believes the priesthood was restored by Joseph Smith in 1829 and that you have been ordained as an Aaronic priest. Possibly you believe that Hebrews 5:4 applies to you: “And no man taketh this honor unto...

A Unitarian Appeal to the Sinaiticus Variant at 2 Peter 1:1
A two-part article. Part 1: Simon Escobedo. Part 2: Mike Porter. Part 1: An Internal Critique A number of days ago, I came across a Unitarian who sought to minimize, if not eliminate, the appeal Trinitarians make to 2 Peter 1:1, specifically the phrase τοῦ θεοῦ ἡμῶν καὶ σωτῆρος...
Does God Forgive the Unrepentant? – The Dubious Textual Variant, ‘Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing’
A few years back I posted an article explaining the weak textual evidence of Luke 23:34a, “Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they are doing.” This week is Good Friday and many sermons will be using this verse, so I think it is appropriate to bring...
Confucianism, Islam, and Christianity – One Point of Contrast
Qin Shi Huang (260 – 210 BC) is the most prominent of the Chinese emperors. He united China through conquest, began the Great Wall of China, and had the Terra Cotta warriors built. He’s significant to Confucianism – and especially the textual transmission of Confucius’ works – because toward...

Pre-Debate Road Trip Dividing Line
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.
Roman Catholicism
Purgatory: 1 Corinthians 3 and Tim Staples
Don’t hold your breath for the invitation for me to be on Catholic Answers Live to discuss, oh, “Does John 6 Teach the Roman Catholic Doctrine of the Eucharist,” (I’d do it in a heartbeat), but today we had Tim Staples on the program for 90 minutes to debate...
Art Sippo on 1 Corinthians 3 and Purgatory
I noted today another fascinating post from Art Sippo, the Catholic lay apologist (and writer of odd pulp fiction stories). Algo had posted a few quotes that demonstrate, as all rational historians recognize, that dogmas like purgatory developed over time, and hence, are not apostolic in origin. Sippo’s response...
1993 Sola Scriptura Debate Review Begins
We began listening to the 1993 San Diego debate on sola scriptura with Roman Catholic apologist Patrick Madrid today. We will continue this review over the course of the next few programs, with the exception of this Thursday when we will be examining the textual variant at Luke 23:34...
The Papacy

Called to Cyprian – Responding to Anders’ Historical Error
On Catholic Answers, episode #6796, Dr. David Anders makes it sound as though the issue of supremacy of the Roman bishop came up for the first time in the third century, as though “Pope Stephen” asserted the primacy of the Roman see, and as though the East acquiesced in...

Tim Staples and the Marian Dogmas
After some brief comments about some of the insanity in the world at the start, focused the rest of the hour upon the comments made by Tim Staples on yesterday’s Catholic Answers Live program where he talked about Mary and her role as co-redemptrix. Important stuff during this 500th anniversary of...
James Cone’s Children, Then In-Depth on the Immaculate Conception
Spent just a few minutes at the start on the video of a black Baptist pastor applying the words of Isaiah 53 to John Lewis, explaining how this is perfectly consistent with Black Liberation Theology as developed by James Cone. Then got into a lengthy church history segment focusing...
The Glorious Logic of Sola Ecclesia
Few topics illustrate the circularity of Roman logic than the Marian dogmas. The more honest Roman Catholic writers admit that when you boil it all down, the Marian dogmas are to be believed because you accept Rome’s authority, nothing more. “We are the true church, we have apostolic authority,...

Refuting the Shallow Arguments of Zakir Naik
As most of you know, Zakir Naik is a wildly popular Islamic speaker in the mode of Ahmed Deedat. Unfortunately, Naik knows better than to debate those who can demonstrate his errors. Which is why he remains so popular, it seems! But he cannot hide his many falsehoods. David...
Zakir Naik Illustrates the Dual Face of Islam When in the Public Square
Very interesting contrast from Zakir Naik’s own mouth (again illustrating why Naik refuses to debate those who could expose his arguments).
Zakir Naik’s Claims on Muhammad in the Bible
Here is my third and final response to Zakir Naik’s appearance on The Deen Show. What I did was take my opening statement from my debate with Shabir Ally on this topic from London in November of last year, along with my comments on Deuteronomy 18:18 from the preceding...

Baptists for the Holy Roman Empire, the Variant at 1 Timothy 3:16
As promised, I looked over the “Sacralism on Steroids” graphic put out by the “New Christian Right” putting Donald Trump as Constantine (seriously) and noted the simplistic history that always accompanies these kinds of movements. Then we looked at the variant at 1 Timothy 3:16 as it was addressed...

Road Trip DL from Golden Again
Broadcasting from Golden once more! Dr. White touches on the cultural decline of the West, Bart Ehrman's naturalistic materialism, and his latest article responding to the Nickitopoulos/Truglia theory on Pseudo-Dionysius. We then spend the bulk of the program dismantling Cameron Bertuzzi's repackaged, yet long-refuted, canon argument.
Why Is Your Soul Distressed? Then, A Bit More with Calvin

Mockery is not a Christian Virtue, then, the Carson/Huff Discussion
Last Road Trip DL for 2024 coming from Holbrook, Arizona this evening. Started off looking at Joel Webbon’s defense both of “anons” and using them to mock people “right off X,” naming Owen Strachan as an example. Then we discussed the encounter between Wes Huff, a Christian scholar and...
