It appears nothing short of my recanting this article and backing up to say that I beg your forgiveness and the forgiveness of all of the rabid hyper-Calvinist out there will satisfy you. However, that will not happen. So, it appears that you and I are done discussing this matter.

Brother Sean,

Thanks for reading and I ask that you continue to read. Let me help you out on something. I know there are many comments and you may have missed it. I merely responded to Razorkiss when he stated that James White was employed by a SBC Seminary and Dr. Caner was not. I did a cursory search of James Whites blog and saw his courses that he listed as he was teaching. Of course the level of courses that he presents would make it appear that he is, if not a full-time prof, at least an adjunctive prof. at GGBTS. I very easily looked at GGBTS website to observe the listing of the faculty to look at his credentials. To my surprise he was not listed at either the full-time or adjunctive positions. I then went back to his website to view his credentials and do you know my surprise to find that his PhD is from an non-credited seminary. I went to the seminary website and found this explanation for their lack of accreditation. I am not questioning Columbia Evangelical Seminary’s,I am merely asking how one can be a prof at an accredited seminary when his PhD does not hold an accreditation. That is all I have done. James White is not a Prof at GGBTS. He may hold a class there every once in a while, but he is not employed by GGBTS as a Prof.

Chris S,

You apparently want to debate me on Twitter and everywhere else, using your own diatribe of something I have never said. One more time for the record. I have never said that James White did not teach at GGBTS. I asked how could a person that had no accredited PhD teach at a seminary whose accreditation demands the Prof have accredited degrees.

Matt,

If you choose not to believe I am a pastor and have pastoral duties that is your choice.

To everyone else,

It is overtly evident everyone is responding in this thread for one reason. They are upset that James White and Dr. Caner did not debate. Now James White has gotten what he wanted–a public call out to the Brothers Caner to debate him and he will shut up about these Muslim claims. Thus, we are no longer discussing this on this post. If you desire to discuss this, please feel free to do so on your own blogs.

Blessings,
Tim

On one blog post Caner is attacked because he is a son of the CR by people who lean to Antinomianism and New Covenant Theology. Here he is being attacked by Calvinists who are angry because he does not embrace their particular way of promoting Calvinism.

Is that about right?

And then there is the fellow who has made a name and gathered a following for himself by chasing Caner around since 2006 because he did not debate him.

BTW, teaching as an adjunct does not mean a great deal in the broad scope of things. Such a person can still be very wrong about things. This I know personally if nothing else.

Byron, remember the admonitions I gave you a few months ago? Go back and read them again.

Additionally, the claim that he is ‘obsessed’ with debating the Caner brothers is simply silly. White was responding to an accusation launched by Ergun Caner. If Dr. Caner had simply let the matter lie, and would stop claiming that he will debate “anyone, anywhere”, I don’t think Dr. White would waste his time talking about him. The record is clear and available to all. If you don’t want White to keep pointing out the obvious, then don’t make indefensible claims in the public arena.

Daniel,

I was not actually in reference to a personal definition of mine. I was saying Caner may have been using the word “debate” as it is used in Scripture. Maybe Caner thinks biblically in his conversations. But what do I know. After all I am just momma’s little boy. But I have moved out of her basement.

Nonetheless, I yield to you in your ability to read Caner’s mind. After all, you are The Great Carnac.

Dr. White responds to this blog posting in his own words.
