Jonah was a very reluctant prophet. He hated the people of Nineveh - TopicsExpress



          

Jonah was a very reluctant prophet. He hated the people of Nineveh for their barbaric actions against other tribes, yet that hatred distorted Jonah’s views of God’s compassion. Jonah was more concerned about a vine than thousands of lives that God wanted to reach. How about us? Do we pray for judgment upon others while we accept grace and forgiveness for ourselves? Just like Jesus would teach much later, Jonah challenges us to see our enemies through the eyes of God and love them. Amen. Amen.
