Whitcomb Ministries

This week on "Encounter God's Truth," we listen as Bible prophecy scholar Dr. John Whitcomb shows us why "Elijah May Appear—This Year!"This season of the year is a good one in which to remind ourselves of the importance of the prophetic future. Dr. Whitcomb's message takes us to a number of passages during the course of this lesson, including Malachi 4:4-6; Matthew 11:11-13; 16:28-17:13; 1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; and Revelation 11:3-12.Host Wayne Shepherd also asked a question of Dr. Whitcomb. He wanted to know if the Elijah who will reappear in the nation of Israel in the future is the same man who ministered to the northern kingdom of Israel in the Old Testament.As we conclude this final "Encounter God's Truth" of 2024, we are certain that God's Word remains true from the beginning to the end! Isn't it a great comfort to know that its truths will continue to guide us into the New Year? Stay close to that Word as we begin 2025 together.

On this Christmas weekend, we listen together as noted author and Bible teacher Dr. John Whitcomb takes a look back at the well-known Christmas shepherds in Luke 2 and their historical predecessor, the young shepherd boy David, to see what they can teach us about the real message of Christmas."I want to be humble before You," Dr. Whitcomb stated. "I want to be like a shepherd. Humble me before You, Lord."Dr. Whitcomb also turned to the famous passage in Philippians 2 to teach us how Christ, our Good Shepherd, humbled Himself so greatly on our behalf in becoming our Savior.Join host Wayne Shepherd for this special celebration of Christmas.All of us at Whitcomb Ministries thank you for listening to "Encounter God's Truth" this week and wish you a blessed Christmas grounded in God's Word, which is true from the beginning to the end!

Today on "Encounter God's Truth," Dr. John Whitcomb brings us the concluding lesson on "The Fears and Faith of Joseph," with a message entitled: "Joseph: He was a Dreamer of Dreams."You will want to follow in Matthew chapters 1 and 2, because God's Word is true from the beginning to the end!This is a lesson on the character and integrity of Joseph—with spiritual application for us today.Dr. Whitcomb then fields a question from host Wayne Shepherd about Joseph's Old Testament namesake—Joseph the son of Jacob. Like him, this Joseph, the husband of Mary, had dreams from God that ultimately led him to Egypt. Our teacher compares and contrasts these two men.We trust that this program will be a blessing to you this Christmas.
