  • Why Dr. White Dominated the Barker-White Debate

    Introduction I have listened to the Barker-White debate of last Thursday twice (an mp3 of the debate can be obtained here). Many things could be said about the debate. I have a few quick thoughts on why Dr. White dominated the debate: 1) Dr. White presented a Biblical case. This is the primary reason that…

    Coram Deo at Defending Contending (link) has a post discussing the issue of infant baptism and the new covenant and promoting a debate between Dr. James White and Greg Strawbridge on the topic of infant baptism.

  • Dr. White’s Humanity and Augustine on the Bodily Presence of Christ

    Dr. White is human. To those of us who know and love him, this is no surprise. We realize that he is a man, just like us, and that consequently he makes mistakes. As Alexander Pope said, “To err is human, to forgive divine.” Dr. White is human and he, from time to time, errs.Recently…

  • Why You Shouldn’t Read Anyone Else’s Blog

    (except mine of course) If you were expecting a defense of the title of this post (or the sub-title above), you are in for a let-down. It’s not serious. It’s a tongue-in-cheek facetious remark aimed at scolding Mr. Nick Norelli who (in this recent post) just doesn’t get it. Mr. Norelli makes the claim that…

  • Simple Challenge for Kent Brandenburg

    Mr. Brandenburg has posted an article in which he states: Bart Ehrman, in Misquoting Jesus, had nine propositions that he developed in the course of the book.

  • Comparing John Calvin and James White

    Someone (http://www.puritanfellowship.com/2008/12/calvin-disagrees-with-james-white-on.html) has suggested that Calvin and Dr. White disagree about John 3:16. I thought it would be helpful to provide some comments on the following text, which is Pringle’s translation of what Calvin wrote (in Latin) on John 3:16. The particular portion of the text on which Calvin is commenting is, “That whosoever believeth…
