Download or read book The Prodigal Prophet written by Timothy Keller and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-10-02 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An angry prophet. A feared and loathsome enemy. A devastating storm. And the surprising message of a merciful God to his people. The story of Jonah is one of the most well-known parables in the Bible. It is also the most misunderstood. Many people, even those who are nonreligious, are familiar with Jonah: A rebellious prophet who defies God and is swallowed by a whale. But there's much more to Jonah's story than most of us realize. In The Prodigal Prophet, pastor and New York Times bestselling author Timothy Keller reveals the hidden depths within the book of Jonah. Keller makes the case that Jonah was one of the worst prophets in the entire Bible. And yet there are unmistakably clear connections between Jonah, the prodigal son, and Jesus. Jesus in fact saw himself in Jonah. How could one of the most defiant and disobedient prophets in the Bible be compared to Jesus? Jonah's journey also doesn't end when he is freed from the belly of the fish. There is an entire second half to his story--but it is left unresolved within the text of the Bible. Why does the book of Jonah end on what is essentially a cliffhanger? In these pages, Timothy Keller provides an answer to the extraordinary conclusion of this biblical parable--and shares the powerful Christian message at the heart of Jonah's story.

Download or read book The Book of Jonah written by Kefa Achenchi and published by . This book was released on 2020-11-08 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Probably you have heard testimonies of people who were so reluctant to do what God wanted them to do and even attempted to run away from God's presence only to find out that it was an exercise in futility and very much regrettable for one can't run away enough to escape the hand of God and the consequences could be painful to one.Jonah the prophet was such a man who tried hard to run away from God's presence and was reluctant to be sent on mission to the Ninevites. His attempt to run away only ended up in him being thrown into the sea and later in the belly of the great fish that God had prepared. We see him crying out to God for mercy and ready to do what was commissioned to him. God relented of the judgment that was to befall Nineveh and we see God's character of being a merciful and gracious God when His people turn away from sin unto Him."The Lord is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and abounding in mercy" (Psalm 103:8)
