It’s very easy for us to see God in a vengeful or hateful light.
- We often see anything that God takes away from us as either he is angry, or that the enemy is attacking us.
- Vs 10-11 states: Then the Lord said, “You feel sorry about the plant, though you did nothing to put it there. It came quickly and died quickly. But Nineveh has more than 120,000 people living in spiritual darkness, not to mention all the animals. Shouldn’t I feel sorry for such a great city?”
- Why do we so quickly assume that we are solely responsible for our achievements and holiness, yet immediately blame God for when they are taken away?
- Even if the work that we put in leads to some achievement, did we really earn it? What about the God given talents, opportunities, or even just the time that we were born into?
- I would simply offer another perspective: God might not be mad at us, but rather he is teaching us something.

About this Plan
Jonah is a somewhat unique book because rather than focusing on Jonah's message, it focuses on his own story. In an age where many are deconstructing or questioning their faith because of perceiving God to be too strict, harsh, or un-loving (especially in the Old Testament), Jonah’s story stands as an example of God’s great love for humanity and redemptive purpose for the salvation of the whole world.
