Today on the Dividing Line, James White was joined by TurretinFan to discuss the history of the Reformation! Very apt indeed given that October 31 is Reformation Sunday in which people celebrate the Reformation. It was a great program.

Where Should I Begin in Reading Van Til and Presuppositional Works?
Jamin Hubner has posted an excellent article about where to start reading the works of Cornelius Van Til (Pictured) and what books one should read to get up to speed on Presuppositional Apologetics.

Jesus in the Public Square: 3 Lectures by Darrell Bock - Apologetics 315
Brian Auten has posted three good lectures about Jesus on Apologetics 315. I enjoy listening to Dr. Bock. He communicates very effectively. One of the lectures is on how to talk about Jesus to those who aren't theologically trained. Another is an answer to the often hurled charge that there is no real, defined Christianity because there is nothing unique or clear in the Bible. The last lecture in the post is a discussion on how we can have Christian orthodoxy before official canonized scripture.

Debunking Christianity: There are Honest Christians Who Want Real Answers to Real Questions
Here is an example of what John Loftus thinks is an "honest" Christian is:

It's interesting to me that a Loftus believes that the only honest Christians are people who agree with him. I find a fundamental misunderstanding of what "Faith" is and what "Faith" isn't. Faith is not believing something that one does not have sufficient evidence to rationally believe. I find it amazing how confused people are on this point. I've quoted Hebrews 11:1 ad nauseum trying to get the point across as to what "Faith" is in a Biblical sense. This time I will re-quote something I was blessed to see last week:Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)This review is from: Why I Became an Atheist: A Former Preacher Rejects Christianity (Paperback)I was a Christian for 26 years, two of which I was on staff with Young Life Ministries, after reading this book I willfully set my "faith" down. This book helped me realize that my God was a myth and that the Bible was indeed a product of man and not God. When doubting Christians ask me what one book they should read, I say without hesitation, Why I'm an Atheist by John Loftus. I currently have two of my Christian friends reading his book and they are stumpped.
Faith is not believing without facts; Faith is trust without reservation.Debunking Christianity: There are Honest Christians Who Want Real Answers to Real Questions
