NEW-FIRST EDITION! Do you need answers on the many so-called "spiritual" movements of the day? Then, this book will help you take an objective look at them from the light of Scripture. Hank Hanegraaff, endearingly called "the Bible Answer Man," because of the radio show he began hosting in 1989 and is being podcast today. This text is a must read as it analyzes the heretical prophets of today and how they attempt to seduce Christians away from the truth of God's Word. This first edition of the book was written prior to Hank's recent journey into Eastern Orthodoxy. In this book, he clearly reveals how Satan is a master counterfeiter. The author of the best seller, Christianity in Crisis, unmasks the truth behind the worldwide counterfeit revival. First editions are rare! Two indexes are available: Scripture Index and Subject Index.
