A person, like yourself, who is preconditioned to believe in credo-baptism is not going to be persuaded by a first time caller on a Radio show. Would he? Also, the person sitting on the fence would not be so convinced.

I think it would be great to debate Dr. White here on the Puritanboard, but I just don't think he would agree to it because the record would show his errors.

Such is life.

Maybe you should do a critical review of his KJV only book, or maybe his lectures and debates on Baptism? If you posted enough substantial critique you would probably eventually pull him out of the woodwork. If you write quality stuff, somebody is bound to tell him about it.

As for being preconditioned for the credo position: I probably am. Which is probably why it makes a lot more sense to me at the moment But I would be lying if I didn't say that the padeo position has me quite intrigued and starting in September I will be beginning a very in depth study of the subject. I expect it to be a long, agonizing, tough, but in the end very beneficial study.

God bless, brother!
