NIV vs KJV by a KJV Onlyist

Ben Witherington and Denominational Humor

Yesterday I blogged about Psalm 72 and some of the ideas of righteousness language in the text. I want to come back to this psalm because I really enjoyed this passage. Specifically I want to look at Psalm 72:8-14 and the domain of the king to whom God grants righteousness and justice. The psalmist pens,

8 May he have dominion from sea to sea,
and from the River to the ends of the earth!
9 May desert tribes bow down before him,
and his enemies lick the dust!
10 May the kings of Tarshish and of the coastlands
render him tribute;
may the kings of Sheba and Seba
bring gifts!
11 May all kings fall down before him,
all nations serve him!
12 For he delivers the needy when he calls,
the poor and him who has no helper.
13 He has pity on the weak and the needy,
and saves the lives of the needy.
14 From oppression and violence he redeems their life,
and precious is their blood in his sight.

I have to speak about a good conversation I had yesterday at the Kauffman stadium here in KC with a gentleman whom I shall call Ted (though not his real name). I first want to thank Ted for the awesome BBQ he prepared during the tailgating outside the ballpark. I had never had elk until yesterday and I love it. Between the four to six pounds of elk and the chicken legs and baked beans all prepared with his unique blends of spices and sauces…wow! I can’t the homade salsa that was just the way I like it: hot. All of that plus drinks for only $6, nice. Read more

Theology and Logic Pt. 2

Full vs. Partial: Test Case in the Resurrection

Christian Apologist James White talks about an encounter he had this past weekend with a Jehovah’s Witness elder. This 30 minute video shares some good ideas on what to do when they knock on the door–namely showing that Jesus is Yahweh/Jehovah from the Bible, even their own translation (New World Translation, NWT).

I AM HE

G# and Witnessing to JWs

Luke 10:21-22 and Joy

Here is a 25 minute video from James White responding to Christopher Hitchens’ argument that badly misrepresents Christianity as it is presented in the Bible. He then launches into a defense of the existence of the Christian God (I think apologetics should not try to prove “a god” and then move to “one god” and then to the Christian God, but rather just go to the last step and only try to argue for the existence of the Christian God) from Romans 1. I really enjoyed it and hope you do too!

Listen to this Hyper-Calvinist and what he has the nerve to say:

Oops. Guess that’s a Calvinist and not a Hyper-Calvinist. My bad.

Here are six video interviews with D.A. Carson, Tim Keller, and John Piper that were really good. They discuss some good issues like balancing mercy ministries and preaching the true gospel of salvation from the wrath of God against sin through faith in Jesus Christ and his atoning work on the cross.

The following video is a presentation by James White in a debate with a Mormon apologist. Here in 5 minutes, he summarizes the book of Hebrews (mostly Hebrews 1-10). Which if you study Mormonism to some degree — okay you read one of their tracts — you see that the book of Hebrews is the perfect apology against Mormonism because it refutes their beliefs on priesthood and sacrifices and atonement. Watch and take notes for the time this comes up in conversation with Mormons you know or when the door bell rings and this comes up.

Here is a video from a week or so ago where James White talks to a caller on his webcast about Titus 2:13 and its Granville Sharp (G#) construction and how to show the Jehovah’s Witness (JW) the truth about Jesus being Yahweh. Enjoy and I hope this helps when you hear the knock on the door.

Here is a video where John Piper explains the ultimate end of everything: God himself.

Get that book from Edwards and read it. It is just as amazing has Piper says it is! You can find it here at Christian Classics Ethreal Library. A DISSERTATION CONCERNING THE END FOR WHICH GOD MADE THE WORLD.
