He’s a Replacement Theologian for one.
A 2-State Solution Junkie. Preterist. And Globalist if you really listen to him long enough. He backs unification much like what the Pope is talking about recently.
In this lecture, “Mark Hitchcock - A.D. 95 - Defending the Traditional Date of Revelation”,

Hitchcock quotes Hanegraaf,
“I knew a year ago when I took this debate,
it would be the end of my ministry.”
Hitchcock was referring to this debate (from about 2013).
“Hank Hanegraaff vs. Mark Hitchcock. - Date of Revelation”

where Hanegraaf takes the liberal preterist view of the date of the writing of Revelation.

This actually tells me what I was asking about: http://theaquilareport.com/pastoral-advice-eastern-orthodoxy/.
To briefly comment on Hanegraaff, from what I have read he was raised in the Christian Reformed Church as the son of a minister, but for some reason as an adult he drifted into broad evangelicalism as an amillenial, baptistic Arminian. He never received seminary training, and was ordained by Chuck Smith of Calvary Chapel. Until he makes an explicit statement on the matter, it is difficult to speculate on what drew him to Eastern Orthodoxy.
So, raised right (depending on the dating of his time in the CRC -- it wasn't always as you see it now), drifted off into generic American evangelicalism. Drifted right on out of it, for reasons yet to be stated.
His eschatology and his politics are not the problem.
With the recent news that Hank Hanegraaff has been received as a member of the Eastern Orthodox Church, it might be helpful to post the report on Eastern Orthodoxy that Classis Southwest of the URCNA adopted as pastoral advice at the recent classis meeting. The reader can download it here. It deals with some of the major issues that have attracted former members of our churches to depart for Eastern Orthodoxy, and provides guidance for ministering to those considering Eastern Orthodoxy.
Ping to a couple GRPL saints. (Not sure how many of us are left.) The URCNA reports looks useful.
