Come, Let Us Reason Together, Part 5
Reading John As History
Pastor John continues his analysis of the “heretical tendencies” of Evangelicals as they seek to be faithful to the Lord’s command to preach the Gospel to the whole world.
The penchant for Evangelicals to interpret the Bible literally—that Jonah really was swallowed by the whale, for example—continues to lead Christians away from the eternal truth of the gospel of Jesus Christ and his atoning sacrifice for mankind. This applies especially to the Gospel of John, in which the glory of the revelation of God in the incarnation of Jesus Christ is revealed.
