Description

On today’s Bible Answer Man broadcast (09/10/24), Hank answers the following questions:

If we use the word tested instead of tempted in Matthew chapter 4, wouldn’t this harmonize the rest of Scripture, which states that God cannot be tempted? James – NJ (2:23 )
Why did Jesus curse the fig tree? Why does the passage go on to say that it wasn’t the season for fruit if the application is about not bearing fruit as we should? Mary – Modesto, CA (7:56 )
Who were the wise men? How would they have known about the star and its meaning? Josephine – Wichita, KS (15:11 )
Could you give some insight about the Documentary Hypothesis, JEDP? John – New York, NY (20:03 )
Can Satan read our thoughts? If not, why does he seem to know exactly how to tempt us? Is it wrong then to pray or confess our sins out loud? Mary – OK (22:21 )
