You are right, Hank. I knew when I head John Hagee making jokes out of a man dealing with demonic possession something was *not right* John Hagee was telling this story and laughing about it. It was disturbing and cruel. You would have to see it.
I used to watch him when he would preach on the rapture and the book of Revelation. However, after God opened my eyes and I learned the rapture theory is a false doctrine, I haven't watched him since. I bought his book, 4 Blood Moons and it was a useless book.
For some reason people take everything TV preachers as the absolute gospel truth when in reality much of it is their interpretation. The odd time I listened to Hagee , just to see if I can learn something. But Hank isn’t any different than any of the other. I remember he gave a scathing critique of Joel Osteen, who I enjoy watching not because Joel is a great theologian, but he’s a great motivational speaker. During the podcast criticizing Joel he asked people to send money 3 or 4 times. I personally send only money to my church and organizations like Samaritans Purse and Compassion where I know my money does something good. Trust Jesus, and don’t put your faith in men, just open your bible and read it daily.
@e.a.p3174 Appreciate the point of view. Of course, the discerning Christian ought never to just get a motivational talk or a message that gives you a liver quiver, especially of the preacher/orator/sophist/life coach/Ted Talk speaker propagates error.
@@BibleAnswerMan Of course not, but you need to fill the physical and spiritual needs of the downtrodden. When you are losing your house because you can't pay the mortgage, facing cancer, going through a divorce, you etc, you don't need to listen to a sermon of what a miserable sinner you are. I attended a Baptist church, for a while, and every Sunday was the same message, we are rotten sinners, and Jesus paid the price, so we don't have to rot in hell. Of course theologically that is correct, but people need to deal with real world problems. So if God chose Joel as a Christian motivational speaker and his success seems to suggest that, it is fine with me. Nevertheless you should attend a church on Sunday, you should also listen to other preachers. I listen various preachers like Charles Price, Allister Bagg, Derek Prince, David Jeremiah. Every time I listen to someone I might learn something. However nothing beats spending the habit of daily bible reading.
@e.a.p3174 Fair enough. But Word of Faith preaches, such as Hagee, often teach a prosperity gospel, which shamelessly conveys to the poor and downtrodden that poverty is a curse and wealth is a sign of the kind of faith that makes one prosperous. Their poverty shows their lack of faith, in other words. Very bad stuff. It is virtuous to show compassion to the poor but Hagee and other Word of Faith prosperity gospel preachers are scandalous.

@ with all due respect poverty is the result of lack of of vision, poor work habits and a lack of self discipline. You may be right that some preachers such as Copeland and Hagee claim that poverty is caused by lack of faith rather than a lack of work. So their prescription is have faith to send them money. That’s hustling gullible people. People have a self image unfortunately that self image or as Bob Proctor calls it paradigm that keeps people from winning in life. I once was extremely broke, lived on potatoes and milk for a whole winter, however in mind I had a vision that I own a prosperous business and I kept the vision and built a prosperous business. Over the years I hired, many people, rented out apartments to many people and I can tell you exactly who succeeds and who stays perpetual poor. All I have to do is look at people’s habits. I believe God will bless and prosper people who have good habits. My company’s motto is Colossians 3:23 and anyone who does follow that motto will prosper
@runwillrobinson Thanks for sharing. Yes, there are many disturbing teachings from John Hagee. See www.equip.org/articles/christianity-crisis-21st-century-wealth-want1/ www.equip.org/article/hagees-magic-apologetics/ www.equip.org/articles/beginning-of-the-end/ www.equip.org/articles/pastor-john-hagee/
One of the things that disturbed me about John Hagee years ago is when I saw how he was friends with Jesse Duplantis. Jesse is one of the easiest fakes to recognize and John Hagee knows he is.
John Hagee states in the book after the statement about denying being the messiah...CHOOSING INSTEAD TO BE THE SAVIOUR OF THE WORLD. He was using the word messiah in its general term..like Moses was a messiah , Samson was a messiah, etc. Deliverer. It was a poor choice of words for the promo lol. People wanted Jesus to set up his kingdom on earth in their day.
Why not show Hagee speaking? I’ve listened many years. Never heard him speak anything like that. Why attack a man who has done so much good? His ‘Sanctuary of Hope’ is a beautiful place where young pregnant women can give birth to their child.
What I wonder is; Why so few preachers know nothing about the Kingdom of God. Jesus said, "The time is fulfilled! (Daniels 70 weeks prophecy leading up to Messiah" The Kingdom of God is at hand, repent and believe the Gospel." What Gospel? The Apostles asked, "Will you at this time restore the Kingdom of God?" The fallen tabernacle of David, United Israel, will be restored. Why don't you people know this. John 3:3 "Jesus replied, “Very truly I tell you, no one can see the kingdom of God unless they are born again.” Luke 17:20 Jesus replied, “The kingdom of God will not come with observable signs." It takes study of history and the fulfillment of prophecy to understand the Kingdom of God, where it is on Earth, who those people are, Israel. We will not know of Christ's return but so many prophets' prophecy they know the date, and all have failed to this point in time. But it will come here on earth where we who have passed will rise from our graves in the air that we breathe, and others will be changed as they are still alive.
@RealBobLoblaw Disagree. Hagee is a well recognized television preacher who has a global platform that touches numerous evangelicals. Far from some obscure preacher relatively unknown in the evangelical world. It is Hagee's teachings that fall in the domain of fringe evangelical to heretical but highly influential within evangelicalism. Hagee takes the heresy from the outside church and brings it into the church.
WHEN I READ THE WORD, GOSPEL, I expect simple straightforward from the mouth of Christ, not the word, gospel used for all purposes, you frauds! Mt. 24:13-14, is the gospel. Thy kingdom come, is the gospel, and you know what grasshoppers? He said; Mk. 1:14-25 , BELIEVE IT'S THE GOSPEL, not a bunch of need for a savior rocket science, and spiritualism in the form of metaphoric lingo. This is what happens when scholarship is so bad, they cannot discern God didn't give Moses the ten commandments, yet it is written. As a former atheist, my disappointment in Christianity has gotten me saying religion is bogus, while God, is not. Bless your mortal hearts. Ask Christianity for the gospel, if you don't get what I cited, you're not getting the gospel that brings his return, thus the long-suffering of Christianity is deliberate?
@eltonron1558 Thanks for chiming in. Matthew 24:13-14 and Mark 1:14-25 comport with the essence of the gospel, which Paul affirms in 1 Corinthians 15:1ff. The gospel preached is Christ died, according to the Scriptures, and rose again on the third day, according to the Scriptures, and He appeared to Cephas and the twelve. Whether one reads Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John, all four center upon and bear witness to Christ death and resurrection.
@BibleAnswerMan I am not sorry to inform you, 1Cor. 15:1, is spoken in PAST TENSE. How do I know? Because it's either past tense, or Paul contradicts himself., from he declared the gospel just as Jesus, to the point matters concerning Jesus are secondary. Acts 28:31, Paul did the gospel as Christ. Thy kingdom come, the coming kingdom of God, and staty in Corinthians 15:-23-24, simple gospel fulfilled, kingdom delivered up, the END, of Mt. 24:13-14, from the beginning. No need for a savior rocket science, to please Satan, for only that gospel according to Christ, brings his return.
Why do you call yourself "The Bible Answer Man"? There's only one bible answer man, that being the Holy Spirit who is the Author thereof. Elevating yourself to that level is just a bit arrogant.
@BibleAnswerMan One wonders what legitimate errors Mr. Hanegraph espouses. There's far too much fingerpointing going on in what calls itself the church these days.
I'm so glad someone is exposing this. 👍
That's another reason why I'm glad audiobooks of the bible are available. Even the blind can hear scripture.

Very informative teaching, I thank God for men of God like Hank Hanegraaff.
Thank you Hank!
Did you see Hagee book on the blood moons? He does not talk about that book any more.
@mikepennn Yes. See the Christian Research Journal review by JP Holding: www.equip.org/article/hagees-magic-apologetics/
I used to watch him when he would preach on the rapture and the book of Revelation. However, after God opened my eyes and I learned the rapture theory is a false doctrine, I haven't watched him since. I bought his book, 4 Blood Moons and it was a useless book.
Thanks for chiming in. You are on the right track in dispensing with Hagee's false doctrines.
ABSOLUTELY DOES. "There is a Great difference between "living the Christian life" and allowing Christ to live His life through you." PROVERBS 17:28
I used to listen to Hagee until i started discerning his garbage teachings.
He's one of the worst
@bryanekberg1042 Thanks for chiming in.

God is amazing
Repent and believe the gospel. Only Jesus can save and change lost sinners. Jesus wins and the devils lose be on Jesus's side.
