10-Point Theological Scorecard

Christology

Is Jesus the only way? (John 14:6)

John Hagee has controversial Christological positions — his book "In Defense of Israel" appeared to deny that Jesus came to be the Messiah (later retracted). Dual-covenant theology concerns.

Caution

Scripture

Inerrancy affirmed? Final authority?

Charismatic — extra-biblical revelation through prophecy may complement Scripture authority.

Caution

Men's Discipleship

Intentional formation for men?

Verify.

Caution

Soteriology

Faith alone? How is salvation presented?

Dispensational premillennial. Christian Zionism is a defining feature — may distort soteriology with dual-covenant implications.

Caution

Gender / Biblical Design

Biblical manhood and womanhood by God's design — patriarchal, complementarian, egalitarian, or affirming gender ideology?

Male pastoral leadership (Hagee dynasty). Verify women in ministry roles.

Male pastoral leadership — Hagee family dynasty model

Caution

Leadership Structure

Male elders/pastors? Accountability?

Family succession model (John → Matt Hagee). Dynastic rather than elder-led.

Caution

Preaching Style

Expository or topical/therapeutic?

Topical, prophetic-style preaching focused on Israel and end times. Not expository.

Caution

Mission Clarity

Great Commission central?

CUFI (Christians United for Israel) is a major political/missions organization. Very active.

Strong

Cultural Alignment

DEI/CRT language? Social justice crowding out gospel?

Strongly conservative politically. Anti-progressive.

Strong

Accountability Structure

Denominational home, elder plurality, or external network — is the pastor answerable to anyone?

Caution

Assessment

Cornerstone Church San Antonio is John Hagee's megachurch — now led by his son Matt. The Hagee ministry is one of the most visible in American Christianity through GETV television. Cornerstone is strongly pro-Israel (CUFI), politically conservative, and charismatic in worship. Theological concerns: dual-covenant theology implications, prophetic-style (not expository) preaching, family dynasty governance model, and ORU charismatic influences. Not recommended for men seeking expository, elder-led, Reformed or Baptist Christianity. May appeal to those in the charismatic/prophetic stream.
