Dr. Leighton Flowers, a non-Calvinistic Southern Baptist, addresses the rise of "cage stage Calvinism" by taking on one of the leading proponents of Calvinism seen on social media today, Dr. James White of Alpha and Omega Ministries.
While White has criticized the rudeness of many of the "young, restless, and reformed" types prowling the internet today, in this broadcast Dr. Flowers clearly and systematically demonstrates White's blatant hypocrisy in this arena. By playing clips of White's mocking tone, demonizing rhetoric, outright disrespect, and plan old fashion rudeness, Flowers brings a much needed rebuke to an influential leader among young Calvinists engaging others on social media.
Flowers continually points his listeners back to "the principle of charity" which was described as "assuming the best about your opponent" and "giving them the benefit of the doubt" while attempting to really understand their argument before launching into criticism.
While Flowers primarily sticks to critiquing White's methodology he promises to publish a follow up response to address White's actual theological arguments, which Flowers argues are undermined by White's overall demeanor and tone.
