Category: The Book of Jonah
Most everything that Jonah needed for his mission applies to us today.
Jonah’s initial disobedience and opposition did not stop God from accomplishing His will.
God desires a relationship with His creation and goes to great efforts to bring us to Him.
This article focuses on whether every Ninevite believed, or more likely, most of the people. Plus, there are some exceptions.
Nineveh repented, but I think some did believe and some probably did not. Certainly there were enough people repenting so that God spared the current generation from being destroyed.
The response of Nineveh indicates to us that they actually turned from their wickedness.
God is committed to following through with His promises. He is dependable and reliable even though man is not dependable nor reliable.
