On the way home from a month on the road, catching up on a few items such as the re-ignition -by one side- of the -Federal Vision- controversy, etc. Then we went through ten points raised by Dr. Van Kleeck in posts written since our debate.

Did a bit of an impromptu program tonight with most of the students from the early church history class I am teaching at GBTS in Conway today. Thankful for these men-

Traveling with James on the Road

Started off with a little ministry report from the G3 Conference and my time in Pennsylvania. Then we talked a little bit about the Master's Seminary controversy, then about the debate from Saturday afternoon, and finished up with a response to Costi Hinn about-Doug Wilson and Michael Brown. An hour and twenty minutes.

Covered a lot of ground today from the RV park outside Columbus, Ohio, including a look at the Son of Man in Mark 9, some preview of the upcoming debate with Peter van Kleeck, some discussion of cultural developments such as Illinois declaring open season on its own citizens, the emptiness of -conservatism- without a real world-view foundation, etc., and a quick note on MBTS becoming a center for the promotion of the thought and writings of Thomas Aquinas. Honestly don't think there will be any room to sneak in another program this week, sadly-

Commented on the Queen's passing and with her the passing of an era. Then we looked at Colossians 2-9, and then at Walter Brueggemann's comments on the Bible and homosexuality.

We have no way of knowing what we will be doing for the next few days program wise, but we snuck one in today, looking closely at the infamous Marian prayer going around the net -one I was addressing in the early 1990s-. Then we looked at Scott Swain's comments on divine simplicity and James 1-5.

First hour or so I was joined by Pastor Tobias Riemenschneider, one of the framers of the Frankfurt Declaration -Frankfurtdeclaration.com-. We discussed the declaration, its purpose and function. Then I responded to Dr. Craig Carter's inaccurate and unkind comments posted yesterday, once again focusing upon the real issue that is coming out of the development of this -Great Traditionalism.- Nearly two hours today-

Started off looking closely at Jude 3-5, then moved on to listen to a section of an interview with Carl Trueman, and then brought it all together to respond to the topic of people destroying their credibility by talking about Socinianism.
