A "jumbo" edition of a Road Trip Dividing Line today from Albuquerque, New Mexico! We talked about John MacArthur, told a few stories, then talked about the sad, silly, inane folks trying to cash in on criticizing him. Spent a few minutes on the Alex Jurado controversy and how we can't just accept electronically produced evidence anymore, even in situations like this. Then we spent about 45 minutes responding to the guys from Trinity, including David Allen, looking at how their own language admits that our primary criticism has always been correct: they start with man, not with God. Then we looked at 1 John 5:1 and how both sides deal with it, or, in their case, don't deal with it at all.
