Prominent Christian apologist. Founder and Director, The Center for Biblical Apologetics.
 The Biblical Basis of the Doctrine of the Trinity Excellent outline study. The Book of Mormon Testing the claims made for the Book of Mormon. Does Yoga Conflict with Christianity? An issue of ''Rob's Reviews'' The Faulty Foundation of the Five-Fold Ministry Is the Good News Bear a Copy Cat? : Hank Hanegraaff and Plagiarism
Not satisfied to accept the secondhand research of anonymous critics, I decided to investigate the matter for myself. This report, first written in December 1995, is the result. In making this information available, my only interest is in letting the truth be known. Given the widespread dissemination of the plagiarism charge, there is no honorable benefit to be gained by avoiding the issue. I wish no harm to Mr. Hanegraaff or anyone else. However, I do believe that Mr. Hanegraaff ought to be held accountable by his pastor, his Board, and his financial supporters. These responsible parties need to decide, based on the evidence, whether Mr. Hanegraaff has indeed committed plagiarism, and if so, what they ought to do about it.
Of Definitions and Discernment An Open Letter Review of Bob and Gretchen Passantino's book "Witch Hunt" On The Gender-Inclusive NIV (NIVI) Orthodoxy and Heresy Article that was later expanded for his book "A Biblical Guide to Orthodoxy and Heresy." Peter Jennings, Jesus and Paul by Robert M. Bowman, Jr.: "In this article I shall give a review, noting what Jennings and his scholars got right as well as what they got wrong.". • PDF Version Response to Becky Groothuis' Paper (On Inclusive-Language Bible Translations)
Jehovah's Witnesses A volume in the Zondervan Guide to Cults and Religious Movements. An Unchanging Faith in a Changing World : Understanding and Responding to Critical Issues That Christians Face Today Co-authored with Kenneth D. Boa. Understanding Jehovah's Witnesses : Why They Read the Bible the Way They Do The Word-Faith Controversy : Understanding the Health and Wealth Gospel by Robert Bowman. A balanced overview and thorough critique of the movement. The publisher of Apologetics Index highly recommends this book.
Robert Bowman Jr. critically examines the movement's origins and teachings, distinguishing acceptable Pentecostal practices from distorted offshoots. He insists that the word-faith movement is 'neither soundly orthodox nor thorougly heretical' and encourages charismatic believers to pursue a rich, mature, and biblical sound Pentecostalism.'' Not only does The Word-Faith Controversy examine the founders and the message of the movement, it goes beyond the health and wealth promise to uncover what have become the most controversial aspects - what the movement's teachings on faith, words, and confession imply about God, Jesus Christ, human beings, and the nature of the Christian faith.
