Jonah is the bad boy of the prophets! As the most recognizable of the Minor Prophets, most people look only at the unique story lines... the rebel prophet, the big fish, the vomit! But Jonah 4 gives us the meat of the book. In the conclusion of Jonah we discover the human condition, the attitude of Israel in the Old Testament and the attitude of self-righteous humanity today. We LOVE God's mercy when we are the recipient, but we like to put parameters on it with others. But here we discover a benevolent and unchanging God in Jonah that cares deeply for His Creation. He is patient and wants to see people repent. This should be our attitude as well towards the lost world. Anger is seldom the answer. We can trust God to accomplish His good purposes! In the meantime, we obediently follow the Will of God and let Him do His work! Message preached on Sunday, October 2, 2022 as part of the "God In The Ruins" series from the Minor Prophets.
