After the Resurrection
Series Jonah
In the second part of Jonah chapter 3 we see the effect of God's word upon the people. Jonah is now witnessed as a type of the Lord Jesus Christ who is raised again from the dead. This was pictured in Jonah being vomited out of "the belly of the grave" onto dry land (2:2, 10). When Christ arose he declared his word to his few disciples, who spread the word throughout Jerusalem, Samaria and eventually throughout the world. Working repentance and salvation among the chosen people of God. This is pictured here in Jonah where the word was carried from "a few" who heard Jonah, taking that word to the King and it spread to the whole city from there working repentance in them who received the word by the hand of the mediator (Jonah) whom God sent (1 Thes 2:13). You must repent and believe Christ for the remission of sins. And you that repent and believe have God alone to thank for working repentance and faith in you.
