Contributed by Winson Butler on Aug 23, 2005 (message contributor)
Summary: A man who carries a cat by the tail learns something he can learn no other way. Jonah was one of those who learned the hard way, but learn he did, let’s see how!
Introduction
Man on the run! That’s what the news would have said. Run he did. Our story begins with Jonah. The amazing thing is, he reminds us of US!
Jonah was the fifth in order of the minor prohets. Commissioned by God. Objections to Jonah’s encounter have been long and continual. Granting all these objections, the facts are miraculous and nothing is impossible with God.
What we learn in the end is, God’s grace knows no end when it comes to His love for us all. Let’s examine Jonah’s Journal together!
