Alpha and Omega Ministries

Did not intend to spend the first half hour talking about the challenges facing us in the US as the mid-terms approach, but, that's what happened! Then we moved to a clip of LDS apologist Hayden Carroll misrepresenting Millard Erickson and Charles Ryrie in a dialogue on the Trinity.

Went a bit long today so we that could cover a lot of ground, including more D'Souzian silliness with CS Lewis, and then Matt Fradd saying Jimmy Akin "destroyed" me (when he didn't even address my actual argument), and finishing up with a look at four key texts on the decree of God in the Bible, all up on the big board.

Introduced a new word to the world today, Βουλομάχοι, which means "those who fight against the decree." Identified Dinesh D'Souza and his cohorts by the term, and even offered to have a t-shirt made with the term for Leighton Flowers if he'd like one. Anyway, covered various theories of how God's knowledge relates to events in time from an X post Dinesh D'Souza reposted, and then went back to the final paragraph of the 3rd chapter of the Confession of Dositheos which just happens to be on the exact same topic as the first part of the program!

Made the mistake of reading, and responding, on X right before the program started so...ended up covering enough D'Souzian hubris to do an entire edition of Radio Free Geneva, if we had wanted to play the theme! But, got back to the Confession of Dositheos though we are right at the part where it is addressing the very same issues, so, the topic did remain fairly consistent for the full hour. Briefly responded to an LDS apologist in the middle there somewhere, but, similar topic as well.

Touched on a few items from the web to get started, but then transitioned back to the Confession of Dositheos, which, honestly, is the confession of Provisionism, too. I have already heard of Provisionists who swam the Bosporus, it is a really short swim!
