Don't reject Calvinism because you hear Leighton Flowers describe it and condemn it. When it comes to Calvinism, he has no idea what he's talking about. Do your own due diligence and understand the issues at play regarding Calvinism before you "reject it." @Soteriology101

Even Steven Furtick espouses SOME sound doctrine. Not everything he says is heretical. And, yet, he's still a wolf in sheep's clothing. Does that mean I read his work and spit out the bones. NO. Wolves teach heresy intentionally. Mark and avoid.

The 21st century church needs to unhitch the word "worship" from the term "music". Music is a means (one of many) by which Christians can worship God. True worship has God as its object, is driven by a response to his revelation, and isn't confined merely to music.

Is the book of Jonah historical? I lean toward “yes,” but the main question is: did the author intend it to be read this way, & what’s literary evidence for this? If the author intended it to be read as a parable, that would be fine. Lots of inspired parables in the Bible.
