Debates never change anything, and I don't see myself getting not-blocked anytime soon. Both Reformed and Orthodox tell me not to worry about that site. Perhaps they are right, but still. Every post on that site follows the same format. List the Evangelical opinion (and note the always equivocation between American Evangelicalism and Historic Protestantism), note how it differs from the Eastern Orthodox opinion--and well, that's that. For those who know argument and debate something is missing: the logical case itself! We are never shown how one position fails logically (or theologically, what have you).
Another problem is that they refuse to interact with the best Reformed sources. I was told that they wouldn't touch Turretin or Muller, but still I urge Turretin and Muller. So, if they can do a book review of these following leading sources, I can gain respect for them as a site.
Horton, Michael. Lord and Servant: A Covenant Christology. Horton's powerful refutation of chain of being ontology and his 3-Fold Office of Christ.
Muller, Richard. Basically anything by him.
Turretin, Francis. Either Volume 2 (the atonement and justification) or volume 3 (the sacraments and the chuch).
Good luck, as Calvin would say.
