Examples to Follow in Faith
Today, on Encounter God's Truth, Bible teacher Dr. John Whitcomb finishes his unique series called God's Truth Circles.

Obeying the Great Commission and passing on God's precious Word within this sinful and complex world. We're going to end this series on a high note, with a message called Examples to Follow in Faith. Dr. Whitcomb will give us insight into this topic for the ministries of two of Judah's great leaders, Ezra and Nehemiah, as well as from the words of our Lord.

God's Truth Circles (Part 8)
Are you concerned about how you handle God's Holy Word in this fallen world? Acts 17, verse 11 says about certain disciples in a city called Berea. These were more noble minded than those in Thessalonica. For they received the Word with great eagerness, examining the Scriptures daily, to see whether these things were so. Hello again, I'm Wayne Shepherd, welcoming you back to Encounter God's Truth, a Bible teaching outreach of Whitcomb Ministries, Incorporated. Our motto states that God's Word is true from the beginning to the end. That's also a good reminder, in light of today's theme, as we look in depth at the eternal nature of that Word. And thus how we are to approach it with a manner it deserves as we go about our ministries. Our teacher is Dr. John Whitcomb, noted author and professor of theology, and we're drawing near the end of our series called God's Truth Circles. Dr. Whitcomb comes now to deliver this message. He begins by developing an important question.

God's Truth Circles (Part 7)
Today on Encounter God's Truth, Bible teacher, Dr. John Whitcomb, will teach us how to begin practicing truth in love. He will show us how love can greatly enhance our ministry of truth, for which each of us as believers will be evaluated at the Judgment Seat of Christ. Yet, at times, love also requires us to confront error when that's necessary for the sake of a Christian brother or sister's spiritual health. I'm your host, Wayne Shepard, inviting you to stay with us for this lesson from our series on God's Truth Circles. We've been learning about the absolute importance of biblical truth for the disciple of Jesus Christ. Here our speaker shows from various New Testament passages, our presentation of the truth should be affected by a proper understanding of love. We're finding that being the Lord's disciple in this complex world can be complicated. Yet the Bible gives us the pattern to follow as we strive to make an impact for the Gospel. Here now is Dr. Whitcomb to share more with this week's teaching.

God's Truth Circles (Part 3)
Have you ever considered the fact that Christians have a real influence on how other people relate to God's revealed Word? What kind of influence are you having today? I'm Wayne Shepard, welcoming you back to Encounter God's Truth, featuring the teaching of author and Bible scholar, Dr. John Whitcomb. We've recently begun an important teaching series entitled God's Truth Circles.

And that God uses these dynamics to advance the truth of His Word. Today, we're going to consider the topic of Paul, apostle to the Gentiles, and we'll see that Paul followed the exact model that Christ displayed during his earthly ministry. We'll also learn more of how we are to act as biblical disciples in light of that model. Please listen now as Dr. Whitcomb presents this intriguing study.

God's Truth Circles (Part 2)
Dr. John Whitcomb concludes his presentation of a concept that he calls "God's Truth Circles" this week on "Encounter God's Truth." These messages are helping us to understand more about how Jesus and the apostles dealt with people who were at various levels of learning and belief in the truths of Scripture. This gives us a model for knowing how we should approach people today, and it also informs us as to how we are to handle and teach the treasures found in Scripture—or, as Dr. Whitcomb refers to them, "the deep things of God's precious book, the Bible." This is part of our series called "Basic Biblical Distinctions." It builds upon the foundational principle that God's Word is true from the beginning to the end. Host Wayne Shepherd expresses our appreciation to Grace Bible Church in Elkhart, Ind. Dr. Whitcomb preached these messages to that congregation, and we greatly value their help in broadcasting them here on "Encounter God's Truth."
