Hank’s guest is Benjamin Cabe, author of On Gender and the Soul: An Exploration of Sex/Gender and Its Relation to the Soul According to the Church Fathers. Hank and Cabe discuss what sex and gender are, how Christians should discuss gender in our modern culture, whether the soul has a gender, the importance of drawing on Christian anthropology when assessing modern gender claims, and how incorrect beliefs on the nature of the soul lead to incorrect views on the nature of our salvation.

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (06/19/23), Hank takes time in the second segment to discuss some of the things that we’ve almost never heard about the history of racism. For example, prior to the nineteenth century, Christians were the most vocal opponents of slavery—you think of people like John Newton, author of the wonderful song Amazing Grace who once was a slave owner before converting to Christianity and becoming one of the most vocal opponents to slavery. But today you have secular progressives extolling the virtues of the Enlightenment and denouncing Christianity as though it is a religion of racism and slavery. If you think about the Enlightenment clearly, you don’t just think about social reform, scientific development, or progress; what you think about is some of the main figures within the Enlightenment—figures who are lauded. People like Voltaire, who said, “The negro race is a species of men as different from ours as the breed of spaniels is from that of greyhounds.” That they are of a “different nature” and “greatly inferior.”Hank also answers the following questions:What is your opinion of Bethel Sozo?What is the difference between giving first fruits and tithing? Are Christians required to tithe?

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank shares his thoughts on communion with Christ. Describing that to know Christ is to know more than just doctrine. It is to experience Him in intimate, interactive communion, which is transformational as we experience the exchanged life of Christ within.Hank also answers the following questions:What is your opinion on the secret society of Satan worshippers who are allegedly behind Roman Catholicism and Islam?How do I respond to a skeptic who says that God is immoral because He commanded Israel to commit genocide?Is it possible to build up your faith enough so that you can move mountains according to Matthew 21:21-22?

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (06/16/23), Hank shares three building blocks of life that are eroding in our society at an alarming rate: marriage, which has been redefined; the Church, which is failing to be change agents in the culture; and the government, which is capitulating to woke ideology.Hank also answers the following questions:To what extent is God sovereign? Are the decisions we make and the circumstances we find ourselves in governed by Him?When we say “Amen” at the end of our prayers, are we really praying to a different god?I have a daughter who is getting involved in Mormonism. How can I turn her away from this false religion?Is religious freedom really a good thing for Christians?

What is the will of our Father in heaven?Are there parallels between Jesus and the Egyptian god Horus?
