Whitcomb Ministries

Are you concerned about how you handle God's Holy Word in this fallen world? On this edition of "Encounter God's Truth," Bible scholar Dr. John Whitcomb takes an in-depth look at the eternal nature of that Word, and thus how we are to approach it in the manner it deserves as we go about our ministries. Dr. Whitcomb calls this series "God's Truth Circles." It is material he has presented for years, now expanded for broadcast in this format. This timely lesson is called, "The Cost of Compromising Truth." Later, host Wayne Shepherd asks Dr. Whitcomb how listeners can evaluate the teaching they might hear through all kinds of media and technology to know if it is valuable Biblically. God's Word is true from the beginning to the end! It must be our guide, for it alone can build our faith—and that is why we are excited that you are joining us to learn more about it from Whitcomb Ministries.

On today's edition of "Encounter God's Truth," author and theologian Dr. John Whitcomb continues his series on "God's Truth Circles." The topic this time is, "Practicing Truth in Love." Dr. Whitcomb is going to show us how love can enhance our ministry of truth—for which each believer will be evaluated at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Yet, at times, love also requires us to confront error—when that is necessary for the spiritual health of a Christian brother or sister. We bring you this kind of teaching each week to encourage you with the fact that God's Word is true from the beginning to the end! After the lesson, host Wayne Shepherd asks Dr. Whitcomb to clarify how Christ intended to institute division rather than peace during His earthly ministry. Our teacher responds with a heartfelt illustration from his own life.
