Is this passage to be taken literally? Is this a primary or secondary issue? I'm a member of a PCUSA church, but I'm unhappy with the changes being made within this denomination; what should I do?

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank answers questions on the following topics: Must we tithe ten percent or give freely? Can someone reject Jesus' divinity and still be saved? Why did God stop giving us inspired writings? What is a prophet, and how is that office expressed today? I have been studying the Bible and I've encountered passages about predestination, which have caused me a lot of distress. If fatalistic determinism is true, then why should I pray for people to be saved?

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank shares his thoughts on a USA Today article concerning The Monastery of St. Matthew, one of the oldest Christian structures in Iraq. Due to its proximity to the Islamic State, the monastery is now at risk. In light of this, Hank asks where this leaves us here in America. Here we stand in the shadow of the Bible, benefitting from its blessings, but unaware that we have been influenced by it. Christians therefore, must be change agents in the culture...

I own a business but I don't take a paycheck; how should I go about tithing in this situation? Can you explain Matthew 27:46, and Psalm 22:1, when Jesus said that God had forsaken him?

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank answers questions on the following topics: I watched a PBS Special that claimed quantum mechanics and the multiverse disproves a theistic worldview. What did the church believe about the Tribulation prior to John Nelson Darby? In Sunday school we were talking about spiritual gifts and I affirmed that women could preach the word, but they disagreed with me; am I correct? A Jehovah's Witness told me that when we die our souls will sleep, but I...

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank addresses transsexualism as the new frontier Christians will face. In light of the increased acceptance of transsexualism and the intense pressure upon those who object to it, Hank urges listeners to be prepared with a biblical response to the arguments. Despite the movement's claim that transgenderism is inborn, this does not necessarily mean it is ordained by God. And since God designs our inward parts, one's assigned sex reflects His intent....

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank begins with a statement from Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy who in 2013, said that those who oppose same-sex marriage do so out of hate and animus, yet what he fails to realize is that every definition of marriage excludes someone. And as pointed out in the book, Same-Sex Marriage: A Thoughtful Approach to God's Design for Marriage, if any relationship can be called a marriage then the word has little meaning. Hank reminds listeners that...

On today's Bible Answer Man broadcast, Hank shares his thoughts on an article in the Christian Research Journal regarding the Samaritan woman. Although her sexual sin was a serious issue, Hank affirms that in order for her life to change, something needed to happen with her relationship to Jesus first. Like the Samaritan woman, so it is with many today, their sexuality is secondary; their spiritually is primary because when someone's life is changed by the gospel, their behavior changes as...
