OrthodoxVideos says:

"Walter had intended Craig Hawkins to replace him as host of the Bible Answerman Show. Even Hank had intended this. I know because I had recorded tapes of the shows during the time before and after Walter's death. I know what they said. Hawkin's was the regular host for a long time after Walter's death --until Hank fired him."

@OrthodoxVideos Listen to advice and accept instruction and in the end you will

be wise. Many are the plans in a man's heart, but it is the Lord's

purpose that prevails.

-- Proverbs 19:20-21

@OrthodoxVideos We believe both my father and Hank have honored the Lord and have done much to reach out to the lost and to equip the body of Christ. That is the true test of the Lord's hand on a ministry. CRI gave glory to God when my father was there and continues to give glory to God. We are proud of CRI and believe my father would be too.

[WalterMartinJude3]

@OrthodoxVideos Some may not like Hank's decisions but they were his to make just as my father's decisions were made using his best judgment. CRI was never my father's and it is not Hank's. It is the Lord's and His purposes have prevailed and will prevail because the Bible says God is indeed in control! Hank, like my father, is a man being used of the Lord to accomplish His will for CRI. Who are we to question what the Lord has brought about?

[WalterMartinJude3]

@OrthodoxVideos Dear brother,

My father made Hank his Executive Vice President and then six months later, the Lord took my father home to Heaven. At that time, the CRI board voted that Hank would be President. This means that Hank would be at the helm and would then, just as my father did, have to lead CRI by the guidance of the Holy Spirit and through much prayer.

[OrthodoxVideos]

@WalterMartinJude3, I didn't deny that Hank was made president. I only asserted that Walter and Hank had intended Craig to host the Bible Answer Man Show. But suddenly Craig was gone with no explanation.

[WalterMartinJude3]

@OrthodoxVideos Things can and do change that quickly sometimes, but I am confident the Lord has a reason. My father was suddenly gone, as well, only of course in a different sense yet God is in control and that is our comfort. God works all for our good and to accomplish His will. God bless you brother.
