    I was listening to a group of men talking, and they were talking about real men being turned off of Christianity because of the pastor’s language and even the songs we sing aren’t manly enough.

    Jonah and God’s Plant Text: Jonah 4:5-11 So Jonah went out of the city and sat on the east side of the city. There he made himself a shelter and sat under it in the shade, till he might see what would become of the city. 6 And the LORD God prepared a plant and made it come up over Jonah, that ...read more

    Examining Jonah’s anger at God’s compassion for the Ninevites

    Key Text: Jonah 4:8-9 Jonah’s anger caused five things to happen in his life. 1. Jonah’s anger caused him to RESIST God’s call (v. 1-2a) A. We resist the call to pray when we are angry (1 Thess. 5:17). B. We resist the call to love when we are angry (John 15:12; 1 Cor. 13:5; John 13:35). C. We ...read more

    El amar a Dios es amar a los demas. Jonas tuvo un gran problema con esto.

    “Pero Jonás se apesadumbro en extremo, y se enojo. Y oro a Jehová y dijo: Ahora o Jehová, ¿no es esto lo que yo decía estando aun en mi tierra? Por eso me apresure a huir a Trasis; porque sabia yo que Tu eres Dios clemente y piadoso, tardo en enojarte, y de grande misericordia, y que te ...read more

    Jonah knew God’s grace, but he didn’t want God to be merciful. Jonah complains in anger, but God responds with another lesson in grace.

    Jonah 4:1 (NLT) This change of plans upset Jonah, and he became very angry. Unrighteous Anger • Jonah did not want to see the Gentiles spared – He did not want to share God’s message – The Israelites were God’s people, there was no room for anyone else • Jonah had forsaken God’s call for His ...read more

    Jonah’s heart is revealed as not right and God is concerned with the conversion of people more than we are.

    Jonah 4 What makes you angry? Do you get angry very easily? Anger is such an important emotion but it is also a very revealing emotion. It tells us something is wrong – the problem is it does not tell us if the thing which is wrong is outside or inside us. We get angry because something is not ...read more

    After all that’s happened so far – Jonah’s initial disobedience; God’s humbling of Jonah; Jonah’s going to Nineveh at the second time of asking; the Ninevites’ believing the message and being spared – surely you’d expect there to be a happy ending!

    JONAH CHAPTER FOUR INTRODUCTION Most of us love happy endings! My girls when they were little loved Disney’s, ‘Beauty and the Beast.’ In the closing scenes the beast lies dying from a wound inflicted during combat with Gaston his enemy.

     | 7,951 views

    We can learn some things from the story of Jonah. We don’t have to go through the experience of being swallowed by a whale. But we’re going to have to lose some of the "gourds" in our lives. What is a gourd? It’s anything we value more than our Lord.

    Have You Totally Lost Your Gourd? Sunday a.m., April 6, 2003 Jonah 4:1-11 But it displeased Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry. 2 And he prayed unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto Tarshish: for I ...read more

    Jonah did not know the mind of God or feel the heart of God or accept the will of God. Therefore Jonah quarrels with God, quits on God and is quietened by God.

    INTRODUCTION I like Charles Swindoll’s outline of the Book of Jonah. He says in chapter 1 Jonah is running away from God; in chapter 2 Jonah is running to God; in chapter 3 Jonah is running with God; and, in chapter 4 Jonah is running against God. I have preached a message on each of the first ...read more
