Do you know who qualifies as -the worst missionary in the history of the world-- According to Dr. John Whitcomb, it was the prophet Jonah-the prophet that God sent to warn the nation of Assyria in the eighth century before Christ.--Is it not amazing that Jonah-who had even tried to escape from the call of God and run away-had no love at all for the Assyrian people, -the most horribly cruel nation in the ancient world, the Nazis of the ancient world-- And yet he delivered the message that the Lord had given him for the city of Nineveh.--Dr. Whitcomb views this as an example of speaking the truth-without love. It is still powerful, but it is not God-s ideal, nor is it the most effective way that we can minister the gospel, or any of God-s Word, which is true from the beginning to the end---With host Wayne Shepherd, Whitcomb Ministries thanks you for listening to this message called, -Truth is Greater Than Love,- from our series on -Basic Biblical Distinctions.- It comes from a series of sermons that Dr. Whitcomb recorded at Grace Bible Church in Elkhart, Indiana. We are so glad to have their permission to present them to a wider audience here on -Encounter God-s Truth.-
