God's Grace To Nineveh

Contributed by James Jack on Dec 14, 2005

We don’t like our enemies receiving mercy, but God is gracious to all who repent.

"The Forgotten God" Series

Contributed by Brad Henry on Oct 19, 2011

We can think Jonah saved the people of Nineveh but it was God who saved them. This lesson will show that it is ONLY the word of God that saves. No amount of entertainment preaching from us will do if the Holy Spirit is not present and active.
