Dr. Ergun Caner – Liberty Investigation Complete
Liberty University has apparently released the result of its investigation: all that they are willing to affirm about his background is that he was a Muslim and that he converted as a teenager, something virtually all of Dr. Caner’s critics have been willing to acknowledge. Also, while apparently they are not going to keep him…

Dr. Ergun Caner's Thoughts on Dearborn, Michigan
Dr. Ergun Caner (who is apparently not going to continue as dean at Liberty) is apparently not talking to the media much these days, so he has not (to my knowledge) commented on the recent arrest of Christian evangelists in Dearborn, Michigan.

According to a friend of mine, some non-Calvinists have tried to argue that it refers to folks who were once saved, but are saved no longer.

Sad Ergun Caner Footnote
One of Caner’s students today posted something suggested that Dr. Caner provided a 7 minute explanation of his innocence, which she nevertheless is not willing to make public, in the course of her course that is apparently on apologetics. I thought I’d check to see if the lecture is on-line. It does not appear that…
