            Why I Believe Special

            We've been talking about why you can confidently believe in the claims of Christ and Christianity. Most likely, you know why you believe. But there is a group of people - people you know, people you love, people you work with - who not only don’t know, but they will likely never know, unless something changes. Chip shares what has the potential to be a game changer when it comes to taking the truth to those you love and care about.

                        Christianity Debates Jehovah's Witnesses; Dr. James White Vs Greg Stafford



                        James White defends the Christian orthodox teaching that Jesus is the supreme God, as are the other persons of the Trinity, the Father and Holy Spirit. Greg Stafford, a Jehovah's Witness argues for the idea that Jesus is a god, but not the ultimate supreme God the Jehovah/Yahweh is.

                         JWs don't usually do debates but I think this is one of the best I've seen in the Christian-JW debate. James White really shows how JWs treat the text of Scripture. It has been said that the Q&A session really exposes them, although, Greg Stafford defends his position with vigor. This makes for a great debate from both sides and should be edifying to all.

                        I do not speak for, or are associated in any way with either debater. But I do think James White is a great debater and apologist.

                        Greg Stafford


                        Greg Stafford is a Jehovah's Witness who is no longer associated with the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society.  He has written SEVERAL BOOKS which both defend and criticize particular elements of the Watchtower Society.  The fact that Stafford is so critical of the organization, yet holds to many of its core doctrines, make him quite an interesting and unique apologist.

                        Recently, Stafford was interviewed by the SIX SCREENS OF THE WATCHTOWER TELENETWORK with regards to his stance on many issues.  Regardless of what you think of Stafford, if you are interested in Jehovah's Witnesses, you should find this interview interesting.  And yes, you'll hear his arguments against the Trinity and other doctrines held by "Christendom."  But you'll also hear his criticisms against the Watchtower Society and why he left.  On that end, any faithful JW in association with the Watchtower will be obliged to view him as an apostate and treated accordingly.  But I do hope that those same JW's will give this interview a chance and perhaps learn something new. 

                        The interview was very disorganized and distracting, as it was held in a conference call format with many honing in to ask questions.  The interview starts at about 20 minutes in, but the full mp3 file is almost 6 hours long.  I haven't gotten through the whole thing, but I doubt Stafford was on the whole time.

                        If anyone has any thoughts, i'd be very interested in hearing them.  You can download or listen to the mp3 HERE.

                        What's the Big Deal with King James Onlyism? - Dr. James L. White



                        Sam Gipp has recorded a very nicely done video that is simply filled with errors--errors historical, errors logical, errors factual, errors biblical. Let's begin the process of setting the record straight.

                        Part 2


                        Continuation of our response to, and rebuttal of, Sam Gipp's KJV Only presentation.

                        Part 3


                        Continued review of, and refutation of, Sam Gipp's KJV Only video.

                        The KJVO debate White talks about that took place on the John Ankerberg Show is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yy5OxafbQ2w
