JONAH A MISSIONARY TO NINEVEH. LICSHON TKXT-Jonah 3:1-10. OOL.DKN TIOXT Go ye thwfnre, and make disciples of all nutlons, baptlidnic '.hi-m Into the name of the Katlu-r and of ;lie Hon and of tho Holy Spirit: teaching them to otisi-rve all tlilna whatsoever I command you; und lo, I am with you al wuvk, even unto the end of the world. Mutt. 28:19. 20 It. V. The story of Jonah Is one of the moHt famous and mutt interesting In the Illble. In former series of lessons more extended use tins been made of tho book giving time to discuss Us historicity and other questions In volved. This time only one reference is used and that fur the purpose of lta missionary teaching. Wo accept the record of tho book literally because similar facts aro recorded In profane history but chiefly because of the tes timony and tha usage made of it by Jesus (see Matt. 12:40: 16:4 and Luko 11:30). The Prophet Proclaiming, vv. 1-4. Jonah "paid tho fare" (1:3) and "out of the depths" (Fs. 130:1) God de livered him that he might fulfill his God-appointed task. Kven so the na tion of Israel Is today crying from out of the depths of Its woe among the nations and will certainly bo "deliv ered" when the king conies, that It may take its rightful pluco and fulfill Its God-appointed tasks. It is a won derful testimony of God's grace (vi) that God's word came to Jonah a "sec ond time." Once he ran from God s command but God is the God of the gospel of a "second chance" and a third if only we rcpont and do his commands, but God does not give a second chant e" to the unrepentant (Num. 14:40-45). Verse two explicitly sets forth the message Jonah is to de liver even so we are to proclaim the Gospel (seo I Cor. 15:1-4) not the spec ulations of men nor the subtleties of philosophy. The messenger of God will find his message In tho word of God and will declare it. It is tha word which reveals God's love,- his plan of salvation, and the destiny of the saints. "By tho foolishness of preaching" men will be saved. The word "preach" literally means "to cry out" or "call out" and implies thnt earnestness and insistence needful for a true advocate or witness of God. But the power Is not In us; it is not the word of God mingled with the the ories of men, or with such added to tho word. The Bible is tho soul win- . ners truo staff. Nineveh, vast magnif icent and wealthy could not atone for Its wickedness; Its greatness only aggravated its condition. Jonah did not spend any time to acquaint him self with conditions or to do sight seeing but cried, "yet forty days, and Nineveh shall be overthrown." When ho explicitly and minutely obeyed and delivered God's message he at once aroused and arrested the atten tion of the city. He did not attempt to present "credentials," nor explain or defend his message. He did not seek to harmonize it with "cur rent thought" nor give It a "mod. em expression." He was blunt and without compromise but gave an opportunity for repentance. It is such preaching that always wins (Isa. 51:11; Luke 1:37). Warning and an opportunity for repentance usually precede the Judgments of God (Luke 13:8-9). Jonah appealed to fear as wd must at times and declaring the whole counsel of God his message waa effoctive (Jer. 1:17; Acts 20:27). II. The People Penitent, vv. 5-10. Nineveh paid immediate heed to the man who did not slur over God's warn ing. Had tho city continued In sin, it had not been delivered. Nineveh did four things and as a result they were saved: (1) They believed, "believed God" (v. 6). All true repentance is conditioned upon accepting God at his word (John 13:20). (2) They evidenced humiliation (v. G). They gave such evidence by humbling them selves in the sight of God from the king upon tho throne to "even the least." There was no apparont attempt to qualify or to evade God's decree, but rather to accept It and by taking a proper place In his sight be deliv ered from the penalty of their Just deserts. (3) They prayed (v. 8; cf. 6, 7). Their prayer was intense. The kind of prayer that counts with God must also count upon God, and God "is slow to anger, and plenteous In mercy" (Noh. 9:17). Prayer that Is effective is (a) grounded upon the word of God (b) forsakes sin and (c) obeys the will of God. (James 1:22; 2:17). (4) They made sacrifice (v. S). Mere humiliation and prayer does not effect a remedy unless there is a mer ciless judgment executed upon sin. The essence of repentance Is to turn away from sin. (Isa. 55:6, 7). God saw "their works" that they turned from their "evil way" (v. 10), not ways, and ho did not execute the threatened Judgment upon the city. God did not change. He hated their Bin and would surely hove executed his penalty, but they changed, hence their deliverance. Their changed attitude was accept able to him. Did Jonah fail In his mission? No! for God's predictions of ruin are not absolute and unconditional (Jer. 18:7-10). Chapter four Is the record of Jonah's petulance and of God's loving-kindness. Nineveh continued for nearly 200 years subsequently but it was. then so completely destroyed that for nearly x.OOO years its location was unknown and disputed though now yielding a rich harvest for the archoologist and Bible student.
