Mark

Yes it is the same person.
What I like about James White is he doesn't hold any punches. However he does so in a fair manner, using Scripture to back up what he says.
I have even heard a broadcast of him where he was in Salt Lake City evangelizing Mormons. When a so called Christian was spreading hateful lies about the Mormons, he came up to the person and told him that what they said was not true.

What was really interesting about that was that Mormons came up to James and thanked him. He was then able to tell these Mormons that he wasn't a Mormon; in fact he was a Christian.
You might be interested in hearing one of his many debates.
