James White's Continued Critique of Andy Stanley
Dr. Leighton Flowers continues to reply to Dr. White's fallacious critique of the Andy Stanley interview and corrects White's misunderstanding of the debate over Middle Knowledge even among Calvinists. Several notable Calvinists, such as Dr. Bruce Ware of Southern Seminary, affirm Middle Knowledge because they understand (as does Dr. Flowers) that it is not synonymous with affirming the whole of Molina's philosophy.
