The Lord is the hero of every historic event in scripture.
The crossing of the Red Sea.
David and Goliath.
Daniel in the lion’s den.
It is the lord who works miracles, it is the Lord who works salvation, it is the Lord who works on behalf of His people.

To deepen your understanding of the Bible you need to understand that the Bible is literature, Holy Spirit inspired, God written literature.
God is speaking to us through His word.
God spoke to the writers of Scripture through parables, through types, through symbols, through ceremonies, through what we call theophanies

God spares - Jonah preaches
Jonah complains - God reproves
God commissions - Jonah flees
Jonah prays - God hears
God spares - Jonah preaches

The back and forth between God and man
Just the Book Genesis:
Did God really say?
The Tower of Babel - God said go, man said no
Jacob wrestling with God
Jesus and the disciples: The same battle but a different defiance.
The man with great debt not forgiving the man with debt
We should not be surprised that our sinful nature, rebellious nature causes us to be the sheep of Is 53:6, going astray, wandering from the love and will of God.
Are you a Go Yeah! or a Jo Nah!
Jonah 3 reveals to us the work of grace
The New Testament application of Jonah 3 - Jonah lives in all of us
Looking at Ephesians 4 in light of Jonah 3
