I think Truman sounded like someone addicted to certainty. Since life doesn't offer absolute certainty as an option... he has to create it out of thin air by insisting on a consensus, on the craziness of other views, etc. It seems to me that Truman wants to believe that Christianity has been destro...

Great show Steve! I enjoyed the exchange of ideas and would like to point out that Truman unknowingly proved the very thing he was arguing against. Allow me to demonstrate: 1.)

It seems to me that parts of Hebrews, particularly the "falling away" parts, are real issues for Calvinism. But I don't see how a warning that if you do x then y will happen is dishones...

So biblical warnings such as these are part of the mechanisms by which God chooses to effect some of His decrees. CThomas Hi Thomas, If God has decreed th...

I was listening to "The dividing line" broadcast over at aomin.org and heard James White say the following regarding the warning passages from Hebrews.. http://www.aomin.org/podcasts/20130815.mp3 ..(Scroll over to about 1:32:00 to hear the conversation).
