Should I Not Love the City?
Speaker: Jay Pound Series: Neighboring 12:31 Scripture: Jonah 1:1– 4:34
The Main Question: Who is Jonah’s God, and how does he respond to the world he has made? (4.10-11)
Act I: God Calls; Jonah Flees
Act II: God Rescues Jonah, Jonah Gives Thanks to God
Act III: Jonah Preaches; Nineveh Repents; God Relents
Act IV: Jonah Objects; God Responds
Lesson #1: God’s compassion is great, and never entirely deserved (2.1; 4.2)
- If God’s compassion extends even to Nineveh, then no one is beyond it
Lesson #2: God responds graciously, even to small steps in the right direction (1.17; 3.10)
Application:
- If God loves and has compassion for our city, then we should too
- God will respond graciously, to us and our city
