Penal Substitutionary Atonement: Part 2

James White

We continued looking at the unhinged attacks on Penal Substitutionary Atonement today, following up on yesterday’s program. Looked at a lot of the reasons for the attacks, as well as the fact that you won’t believe the doctrine without the highest view of Scripture, its sufficiency, and its consistency as well. Hopefully a blessing to those wondering why this topic […]

PSA: the Many Vital Issues (Part 1)

James White

After a brief note of some words from Mark Miravalle about the “5th Marian Dogma” movement that continues to this day, we started talking about Penal Substitutionary Atonement, PSA, which exploded on social media a few days ago. It is not that denying PSA is anything new: it’s a theological minority broadly speaking. But most evangelicals are unaware of its […]

Dr. Newman I Presume, More on David Allen and Romans

James White

Covered a few personal items at the start, talked a bit about Calvin Robinson and Rome, then about Pope Leo’s intention to elevate John Henry Cardinal Newman to the position of “Doctor of the Church” and what this might mean. Then we looked at a Leighton Flowers tweet on God’s sovereignty, and finished up moving back into David Allen’s book […]

On Matthew Barrett’s Conversion to Anglicanism

Rich Pierce

So I received word last week that Midwestern had not extended Barrett’s contract, so he was leaving. Then it came out he was taking a position at an Anglican seminary, and finally, his own article explaining his reasons for converting to Anglicanism. So today we walked through the article in light of the fact that we have spoken often of […]

Roman Catholicism is “one thing” = Papalism- Part 1

“Papalism” or “Sola Ecclesia” (The Roman Church has the final ultimate say on everything.) The Eastern Orthodox have their version of “Sola Ecclesia” also – (Their own Church Councils have the final say, even after the first 7 and their … Continue reading →

Both Roman Catholicism & Eastern Orthodoxy are proven fallible. They made doctrinal mistakes.

Ken Temple

The claim of venerating icons being apostolic (by both EO & RC) is so obviously wrong that it seems that Nicea 2 (787 AD) is one of the clearest examples of a massive mistake in doctrine that the universal church … Continue reading →

Rome and Islam: A Glaring Example of Why Rome’s Claims Fail

James White

We looked in-depth today at the continuing discussion “do Christians and Muslims worship the same God?” This time we likewise looked at what modern Romanism teaches concerning salvation of those in non-Christian religions, and how all of this utterly undercuts Rome’s authority claims. The last few minutes we responded to David Allen’s continued refusal to defend his published works in […]
