Jonah 3:4 – Jonah’s School of Evangelism

Jonah 3:4 – Jonah’s School of Evangelism
http://media.blubrry.com/one_verse/feeds.soundcloud.com/stream/334376104-redeeminggod-jonah-34-jonahs-school-of-evangelism.mp3

How do you evangelize? Do you use tracts? Invite people to church, or to an evangelism crusade? Do you use the Roman’s Road? Do you shout into a bullhorn that people are going to hell unless they repent?

In Jonah 3:4, we see how Jonah shared the message of God to the people of Nineveh. We’ll also see that his approach to evangelism left much to be desired.

Jonah 3:4 evangelism

The Text of Jonah 3:4

Jonah began to go into the city, walking for one day. He cried out, saying, “Forty more days and Nineveh will be overturned!”

In this discussion of Jonah 3:4 we look at:

  • How Jonah evangelized the city of Nineveh
  • Why Jonah’s obedience was … less than satisfactory
  • How we too can evangelize others today

Jonah 3:3 – Making Assyria Great Again

Jonah 3:3 – Making Assyria Great Again
http://media.blubrry.com/one_verse/feeds.soundcloud.com/stream/334375817-redeeminggod-jonah-33-making-assyria-great-again.mp3

Jonah 3:3 Make Assyria Great AgainWhat does God think of evil people? What does God think of people who disobey Him, and are opposed to Him and His ways? Well, according to Jonah 3:3, God thinks they’re great. We’re going to see that the wicked and violent people of Nineveh are great to God.

Nineveh was the capital of Assyria, and so this is why I titled today’s podcast Making Assyria Great Again. Assyria was in modern day Iraq, so maybe I could have said Make Iraq Great Again. I know, that’s a challenging thought. But if God thinks they’re great, who are we to disagree? This is what we learn from Jonah 3:3.

The Text of Jonah 3:3

So Jonah got up and walked to Nineveh, according to the word of Yahweh. Now Nineveh was a great city to God, a three-days’ walk.

In this discussion of Jonah 3:3 we look at:

  • How Jonah finally obeyed God
  • The size of Nineveh
  • What it means that the city was great “to God”
  • How Jonah 3:3 reveals God’s love for all people

discipleship hamster wheel Jonah 3:2Do you ever feel like you are stuck on a hamster wheel in the life of discipleship to Jesus? That you hear the same things over and over? You go through the same steps over and over? That you just keep going round and round and never seem to make any progress or do anything new?

If so, this study of Jonah 3:2 will be helpful for you.

The Text of Jonah 3:2

“Get up and go to Nineveh, that great city, and cry out to it the message that I give you.”

In this discussion of Jonah 3:2 we look at:

  • How Jonah 3:2 is nearly identical to Jonah 1:2
  • What the differences between 3:2 and 1:2 reveal about God
  • How we today can get of the “Hamster Wheel” of discipleship and go in a new direction with God

Jonah 3:1 – The God of Second Chances
http://media.blubrry.com/one_verse/feeds.soundcloud.com/stream/333229217-redeeminggod-82-jonah-31-the-god-of-second-chances.mp3

Jonah 3 begins in almost exactly the same way as Jonah 1. Jonah 3:1 is nearly identical to Jonah 1:1.

Jonah 3:1 reveals that God is a God of second chances. After Jonah’s blatant rebellion and shameful disobedience of chapter 1, and after Jonah’s self-righteous, unrepentant behavior in chapter 2, God still calls Jonah to go to Nineveh and preach to it the message that God to him.

Jonah 3:1 second chances

The Text of Jonah 3:1

Then the word of Yahweh came to Jonah a second time,

In this discussion of Jonah 3:1 we look at:

  • Why Jonah 3:1 is nearly identical to Jonah 1:1
  • What this reveals to us about the character of God
  • How you should respond when God gives you a second chance

Jonah 2:10 – What God Thinks of Jonah’s Prayer

Jonah 2:10 – What God Thinks of Jonah’s Prayer
http://media.blubrry.com/one_verse/feeds.soundcloud.com/stream/330600033-redeeminggod-81-jonah-210-what-god-thinks-of-jonahs-prayer.mp3

As we have studied through Jonah’s prayer in Jonah 2, I have been fairly critical of Jonah and what he says. I have said that his prayer, while full of Scripture and pious language, is actually a big sham. He praises himself, condemns the sailors, and reveals a lot of self-righteousness and pride.

Now that was my take on the prayer. And honestly, I hate being critical of someone else’s prayer. My prayer life isn’t great, and I imagine that most of my prayers are quite selfish as well.

So why did I feel it was okay to be critical of Jonah’s prayer? Well, because it is in Scripture, and Scripture is given to teach us something, I believe that Jonah’s prayer is given to teach us how not to pray.

I believe this because of what we read in Jonah 2:10, where see God’s response to Jonah’s prayer. It doesn’t really matter what I think of Jonah’s prayer, or what you think. What matter’s is what God thinks. Right?

Well, that is what we see today in Jonah 2:10. This verse contains God’s response to Jonah’s prayer, which is what we are studying in this episode of the One Verse Podcast.

Jonah 2:10 prayer

The Text of Jonah 2:10

So the Lord spoke to the fish and it vomited Jonah onto dry land.

In this discussion of Jonah 2:10 we look at:

  • The last verse in Jonah 2 provides God’s response to Jonah’s prayer
  • Why Jonah 2:10 is the punchline to the joke of Jonah’s prayer
  • How we can learn how to pray by looking at Jonah’s prayer
