Spiritualized Gaslighting?
Dr. Leighton Flowers, Director of Evangelism and Apologetics for Texas Baptists, discussed the abusive tactic employed by SOME CALVINISTS (NOT ALL) called "spiritualized gaslighting." This is especially seen in his interactions with James White over the years, as demonstrated. Dr. Flowers doesn't wish to provoke further discord with Dr. White on this matter but only uses clips from White's "Dividing Line" broadcast to demonstrate how this gaslighting practice can be used to manipulate and subvert honest disagreement among believers...and to emphasize that this should be a tactic we all avoid in our discussions with others.
