On todaysBible Answer Man broadcast, Hank encourages listenersin light of the situation with the Coronavirus and the historic stock market dropto fast and pray, rather than give in to fear and paranoia. Many nations throughout history have fasted and prayed and asked for the mercy of God. America historically has been one of them. In the midst of the Civil War, President Lincoln called on all Americans to participate in a national day of humiliation, fasting, and prayer. A month later on April 30, 1863, the American people did just that; they abstained from their ordinary secular pursuits, humbled themselves, and devoted themselves to fasting and prayer.

Hank also answers the following questions:

On todaysBible Answer Man broadcast, Hank does a little clean-up from yesterdays broadcast, expanding on his answer to a caller who was asking about the fall of Satan.

On todaysBible Answer Man broadcast, Hank notes the shift in culture today with nearly half of main-line protestant pastors now supporting same-sex marriage. What was once rallied against years ago is now trending in the opposite direction and the same is now occurring with gender, where the culture has decided that gender and sex should be separate. An article in The National Review titled, Notre Dame Plays Host to Transgender Ideology by Alexandra Desanctis talks about how the University of Notre Dame recently featured a gender studies program in which every speaker affirms that boys can be girls, girls can be boys, and both can be something other than a boy or a girl. Further, that gender is something multi-dimensional and non-binary, and children must be allowed to assign their own gender and be reinforced by medical professionals through counseling, puberty-blocking drugs, cosmetic surgery, and so on. In short, says Desanctis, the University of Notre Dame would rather risk the wrath of faithful Catholics than condemn the prevailing dogma of modern society.

Hank also answers the following questions:

Who were the imprisoned spirits mentioned in 1 Peter 3:19?

Were Satan and a third of the angels cast down before or after the creation of Adam and Eve?
