On the Unbelievable radio show, there was a debate between Ex-LDS Evangelical Protestants, Corey Miller and Lynn Wilder against Latter-day Saint Holt. James had previously debated, and soundly defeated, Bill McKeever. One can read my review here:
Review of the Holt/McKeever Debate on LDS Soteriology (cf. Top 17 Reasons Bill McKeever Doesn't Understand the Latter-day Saint Faith)
Lynn Wilder, as expected, utterly embarrassed herself. This is not the first time, however, she put her foot in her mouth (e.g., Lynn Wilder vs. Latter-day Saint (and Biblical) Theology on Divine Embodiment—indeed, Wilder repeated her, frankly, stupid claims about divine embodiment in this radio show), showing her gross ignorance of “Mormonism” (e.g., our Christology) as well as assuming biblical sufficiency, something which the Bible refutes rather soundly (see Not by Scripture Alone: A Latter-day Saint Refutation of Sola Scriptura). I do find it funny that Lynn focused on the Gospel of John, when in reality, it refutes her newfound Protestant soteriology, such as John 3 which teaches baptismal regeneration or a text she likes to abuse to support Sola Fide, John 5, which again, shows that works are meritorious and can decide, not merely one’s heavenly rewards, but eternal destiny:
Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life. Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live. For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself. And hath given him authority to execute judgment also, because he is the Son of Man. Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice. And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life, and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation. (John 5:24-29)
Corey Miller, while better than Wilder (not a high bar), was embarrassing, too, such as his claims about Joseph Smith’s polygamy and William Law.
