This is contrary to God’s will (Rom 13:1-5), so when... Read more

The Book of Jonah shows us how we can’t run from the will of God any more than we can run from God Himself. Jonah’s Calling Jonah, whose very name means called, was called by God to witness to the great city-state of Nineveh, but that’s the last thing Jonah wanted to do because Nineveh was a longtime enemy of the Jews, so it’s not surprising that when God called Jonah to witness to Nineveh, he tried to escape on...
