The Life-Changing Impact of CRI, and Q&A

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank reflects on the end of the fiscal year, underscoring Christian unity and global missions while warning about The Church of Almighty God (Eastern Lightning), which claims a Chinese woman is the reincarnated Christ and the fulfillment of Jesus’ Olivet Discourse. Doctrinally deviant and sociologically subversive, this group masquerades as a persecuted Christian movement to advance dangerous dogmas. In CRI’s special issue of the Christian Research Journal, believers are equipped to recognize and confront such cults. Hank shows how your prayers, partnership, and generosity make an eternal difference in fulfilling the Great Commission.

Best of BAM: Exposing Eastern Lightning

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (06/27/25), Hank addresses the perverted understanding of money espoused by the prosperity gospel. Hank also answers the following questions: Does the armor of God in Ephesians 6 have a connection to Isaiah 59:17? Does Ephesians touch back to the Old Testament? Orville - Tulsa, OK (15:12) Regarding the assertion that Jesus never talked about homosexuality, Jesus’ reference to Genesis 2 regarding divorce and remarriage shows that husband and wife relationships are male and female, correct? Orville - Tulsa, OK (16:55) I noticed that in Genesis 7:11, the first instance of the word month is mentioned in the Bible. Why is month never mentioned in creation? Is the lesser light in Genesis 1:16 speaking of the moon? Ron - Springfield, MO (20:56) I’m a part-time youth pastor considering full-time ministry. What is the biblical role of a pastor? Should it be a paid position? Craig - Macon, MO (24:04)

The Perversion of the Prosperity Gospel, and Q&A

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (06/26/25), Hank answers the following questions: Why do the Gospels record a different version of the words of Jesus on the cross? Roger - Modesto, CA (1:31) I heard about a church doing a 90-day tithing challenge, basing it on Malachi 3:10. They promised to refund tithers if they didn’t get their blessings. Is this right? Pam - Due West, SC (4:41) I heard a man preaching that he doesn’t believe in the rapture, that it was founded a hundred or so years ago. What is biblically correct? Cassandra - Charlotte, NC (15:13) Revelation 20 talks about “the first resurrection,” which suggests a second resurrection. Where do you get that there will be no seven-year tribulation? Olivia - Marion, AR (19:02)
