Was Willing To Sacrifice Himself To Protect Israel From Assyrians Jonah: Portrait of a Zealous Patriot Matthew 12:39-41 More than just a “story” about a man and a fish Shadow & Substance Jonah: The Man Wanted Demise Of Israel’s Enemies Knew Of Assyrians Evil Jonah 1:10-15 Jonah 4:1-3 Was Willing To Sacrifice Himself To Protect Israel From Assyrians

God’s Love Is Abundant: Mankind Is Oft Times Cold Toward Others… “…and yet no sign will be given to it but the sign of Jonah the prophet; for just as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the sea monster, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth…” Matthew 12:39-41 Multi-Layered Application With Respect To Example Seen In Jonah Message: God Is Anxious To Save Any Who Are Willing To Repent & Turn To Him There Is Only ONE GOD, God Is Infinite In Love & Compassion Lessons: National Sin Demands National Repentance Cannot Run From God Or Responsibility Opportunity Begets A Challenge God’s Love Is Abundant: Mankind Is Oft Times Cold Toward Others…

You Can Run, But You Can’t Hide… Must Ultimately Accept Responsibility (and deal with consequences from your decisions) Jonah Did Not Like What He Heard From God… Jonah 1:2, 3:4 TRIED TO “HELP GOD OUT” BY RUNNING Jonah 1:3 “And there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are open and laid bare to the eyes of Him with whom we have to do.” (Hebrews 4:13) ”Where Can I Go From Your Spirit? Or Where Can I Flee From Your Presence?” Psalms 139:7

JONAH PROVIDED WITH A SECOND OPPORTUNITY A SECOND CH JONAH PROVIDED WITH A SECOND OPPORTUNITY Jonah 2:1-9 He remembers what he had vowed to God Jonah 3:4ff Citizens of Nineveh Repent God Relents & Does Not Destroy Nineveh What Would You Do With A “Do-Over”? How “Invested” Was Jonah In His Proclamation To The People? “The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient to ward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.” (2Pet. 3:9)

Jonah Was Openly Angry That The People Responded “Do you have good reason to be angry”? Jonah 4:10-11 “Should I not have compassion on Nineveh, the great city in which there are now more than 120,000 persons…” HAVE WE GROWN INDIFFERENT? WHEN DID WE LOSE OUR COMPASSION FOR THOSE LOST IN SIN?
