00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:05.820
 We're going to start reading in verse 17 of chapter 1 and go through all of chapter 2.

00:00:07.500 --> 00:00:11.839
 In chapter 2, we have the prayer of Jonah from the belly of the big fish.

00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:13.960
! We're not sure if it's a whale.

00:00:14.200 --> 00:00:15.560
 All it says is a big fish.

00:00:18.059 --> 00:00:20.559
 VeggieTales says it was a whale, but that's just VeggieTales.

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:24.480
 As we read through it, you will hear a man in desperation,

00:00:25.480 --> 00:00:27.719
 a man who is saddened by his choice,

00:00:27.719 --> 00:00:32.579
 and ultimately a man who is praying a prayer of repentance.

00:00:33.960 --> 00:00:36.799
 Jonah is brought face to face with God's sovereignty.

00:00:37.700 --> 00:00:39.759
 Jonah feels the weight of his sin.

00:00:40.420 --> 00:00:42.460
 He rejoices in God's mercy.

00:00:43.179 --> 00:00:48.359
 And he commits to do exactly what God had commanded him to do in the first place.

00:00:49.000 --> 00:00:50.519
 Going to Nineveh.

00:00:51.259 --> 00:00:54.920
 Now these observations can help us as we live out this Christian life.

00:00:54.920 --> 00:00:59.179
 As we struggle to live and to do the will of God.

00:01:00.120 --> 00:01:05.659
 And as we, by God's grace, are perfected by his work in and through us.

00:01:07.000 --> 00:01:13.379
 So as we study, let's pray that God would speak and teach us through this prayer of Jonah.

00:01:14.159 --> 00:01:15.939
 Let me say this as we dig in.

00:01:15.939 --> 00:01:20.259
 This prayer, as you can see from verse 1,

00:01:21.599 --> 00:01:24.539
 it's a prayer that Jonah prays from the belly of the fish.

00:01:25.280 --> 00:01:27.560
 But Jonah does not acknowledge the fish.

00:01:28.159 --> 00:01:29.900
 He does not talk about his situation.

00:01:30.099 --> 00:01:35.459
 He talks about God saving him from his desperation, from being close to death.

00:01:35.560 --> 00:01:38.439
 But he doesn't talk about being in the fish.

00:01:38.439 --> 00:01:42.939
 I think that's clear because when I first read this, I thought, well, the belly of Sheol.

00:01:43.060 --> 00:01:46.159
 There's some language here that he's definitely talking about being in the fish.

00:01:46.819 --> 00:01:51.120
 But Jonah is praying this prayer, but none of it is talking about being in the fish.

00:01:51.179 --> 00:01:54.700
 So as we go through this, kind of pay attention to that.

00:01:55.500 --> 00:01:58.840
 And I hope that I'm clear enough that I can communicate that to you.

00:01:58.840 --> 00:02:06.219
 So the first thing that Jonah does in this prayer is that Jonah admits God's sovereignty.

00:02:07.359 --> 00:02:08.500
 Verse 3,

00:02:10.819 --> 00:02:17.140
 For you cast me into the deep, into the heart of the seas and the floods surrounding me.

00:02:17.259 --> 00:02:20.080
 All your ways and your billows passed over me.

00:02:20.759 --> 00:02:25.680
 If I was to pick one thing so far in the book of Jonah that has been clear,

00:02:25.680 --> 00:02:31.040
 one thing I would say is the sovereignty of God through chapter 1 and chapter 2.

00:02:32.379 --> 00:02:36.340
 God's shown his sovereignty in a lot of things.

00:02:37.200 --> 00:02:39.960
 Creation, the sea, the wind.

00:02:40.980 --> 00:02:45.340
 Jamie and I have a rule in our relationship that we try,

00:02:45.719 --> 00:02:50.000
 we've had it for quite some time, probably our whole entire life of knowing each other.

00:02:50.540 --> 00:02:52.540
 We do not use extreme statements.

00:02:53.020 --> 00:02:55.240
 We do not use never or always.

00:02:55.680 --> 00:02:58.020
 I'm usually guilty of this more than she is.

00:02:59.219 --> 00:03:01.920
 The reason being is, once you say that statement,

00:03:02.040 --> 00:03:05.020
 it just leads to arguing about something silly.

00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.379
 Because really, you can never say always or never.

00:03:09.540 --> 00:03:13.020
 It's just kind of, it's not really a good idea in marriage anyway.

00:03:14.879 --> 00:03:15.900
 Take it from me.

00:03:15.900 --> 00:03:22.099
 But this morning, I have to say, I have to use an extreme statement.

00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:30.120
 You cannot never, ever, ever, never, never read Jonah and not see the sovereignty of God.

00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:35.360
 You cannot read it and miss the sovereignty of God.

00:03:35.860 --> 00:03:39.620
 It is evident in God hurling the wind at Jonah.

00:03:40.060 --> 00:03:42.379
 It is evident at the sea obeying.

00:03:43.060 --> 00:03:46.860
 It is evident at the ship considering to break apart.

00:03:46.860 --> 00:03:53.100
 And now, in chapter 2, at the end of chapter 1, verse 17,

00:03:53.280 --> 00:03:58.280
 God, the Lord appoints a great fish to swallow Jonah.

00:03:58.280 --> 00:04:04.140
 In fact, one commentator said with that verse,

00:04:04.240 --> 00:04:07.439
 verse 17 of chapter 1 and verse 10 of chapter 2,

00:04:07.520 --> 00:04:12.479
 where God showing His sovereign rule over creation, over a big fish,

00:04:13.580 --> 00:04:16.899
 he says that He wishes that those two verses were never written.

00:04:17.899 --> 00:04:21.220
 That the big fish was just done away with.

00:04:21.220 --> 00:04:30.640
 Because these two verses are more questioned and argued than most any verse in Scripture.

00:04:31.520 --> 00:04:36.180
 Questioned and argued even to the point of dismissing the entire Bible.

00:04:36.180 --> 00:04:43.600
 Because surely a man cannot live in the belly of a fish for three days and three nights.

00:04:43.600 --> 00:04:54.640
 Now, I was tempted this week to come to you with scientific proof that a man can live in a big fish.

00:04:54.960 --> 00:04:56.660
 Something that has happened in history.

00:04:58.360 --> 00:05:03.220
 And I was convicted not to do that because then I would just be using science to prove the Word of God

00:05:03.220 --> 00:05:07.220
 instead of faith accepting that this is the Word of God and it's truth.

00:05:07.220 --> 00:05:15.400
 And we have to accept the fact that God appointed a great fish,

00:05:15.580 --> 00:05:17.580
 whatever type of fish this is,

00:05:18.140 --> 00:05:21.240
 and in doing so God exercised His sovereignty.

00:05:23.100 --> 00:05:26.460
 The sovereignty of God is something that Christians like to say.

00:05:27.400 --> 00:05:30.700
 We in church say it, yes, God is sovereign.

00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:31.520
 We believe that.

00:05:31.840 --> 00:05:34.220
 But I don't think we understand it completely.

00:05:34.220 --> 00:05:40.220
 Even if we say we understand it, I don't think we take it to the end result.

00:05:42.020 --> 00:05:45.920
 For some of you, the sovereignty of God, this topic is a treasure to you.

00:05:46.440 --> 00:05:47.280
 You love it.

00:05:47.280 --> 00:05:52.560
 You get excited inside thinking about God being ruler of all.

00:05:53.780 --> 00:05:56.340
 For others of you, it might just be like pennies.

00:05:57.640 --> 00:05:58.680
 They have value.

00:05:59.320 --> 00:06:00.220
 It's important.

00:06:00.780 --> 00:06:03.780
 But if you see it on the sidewalk, you may or may not pick it up.

00:06:04.220 --> 00:06:12.080
 But I want all of us to leave here this morning with the doctrine of God's sovereignty

00:06:12.080 --> 00:06:14.480
 to be treasures for all of us.

00:06:17.320 --> 00:06:21.460
 And so with that in mind, I would like to just take a few minutes

00:06:21.460 --> 00:06:23.560
 and define what the sovereignty of God is

00:06:23.560 --> 00:06:28.480
 and then unfold this prayer that Jonah is praying.

00:06:28.480 --> 00:06:31.520
 So what is the sovereignty of God?

00:06:32.580 --> 00:06:36.900
 First Chronicles 29, verse 11 and 12 says,

00:06:36.899 --> 00:06:43.579
 Yours, O Lord, is the greatness and the power and the glory and the victory and the majesty.

00:06:43.579 --> 00:06:47.899
 For all that is in the heavens and in the earth is yours.

00:06:48.939 --> 00:06:53.199
 Yours is the kingdom, O Lord, and you are exalted as head above all.

00:06:53.719 --> 00:06:59.339
 Both riches and honor come to you and you rule over all.

00:07:00.719 --> 00:07:02.959
 In your hand are power and might.

00:07:03.599 --> 00:07:07.959
 And in your hand it is to make great and give strength to all.

00:07:07.959 --> 00:07:13.180
 Simply put, the sovereignty of God is God is God.

00:07:14.759 --> 00:07:15.279
 Simple.

00:07:15.959 --> 00:07:17.299
 God is God.

00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:20.120
 He is the most high.

00:07:20.479 --> 00:07:21.519
 He is supreme.

00:07:22.079 --> 00:07:23.299
 He is king of kings.

00:07:23.419 --> 00:07:24.500
 He is lord of lords.

00:07:24.500 --> 00:07:28.500
 What that means is nothing compares to him.

00:07:30.500 --> 00:07:39.259
 Angels, demons, greatest presidents, world leaders, disciples, apostles, Lucifer,

00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:42.079
 all are under his authority.

00:07:42.699 --> 00:07:43.779
 God and the rest.

00:07:45.420 --> 00:07:48.839
 In his book, The Sovereignty of God, A.W. Pink says it this way,

00:07:48.839 --> 00:07:55.459
 The sovereignty of God of Scripture is absolute, irresistible, and infinite.

00:07:56.659 --> 00:08:01.279
 When we say that God is sovereign, we affirm his right to govern the universe,

00:08:01.699 --> 00:08:04.879
 which he has made for his own glory just as he pleases.

00:08:05.739 --> 00:08:10.239
 We affirm that his right is the right of the potter over the clay,

00:08:11.339 --> 00:08:15.019
 that he may mold that clay into whatsoever form he chooses,

00:08:15.019 --> 00:08:21.479
 fashioning out of the same lump one vessel unto honor and another unto dishonor.

00:08:22.539 --> 00:08:27.599
 We affirm that he is under no rule or law outside of his own will and nature,

00:08:27.879 --> 00:08:30.759
 and that God is a law unto himself,

00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:35.840
 and that he is under no obligation to give account for his matters to any.

00:08:37.299 --> 00:08:38.699
 This has to be understood.

00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:41.379
 We have to understand that God is sovereign.

00:08:41.379 --> 00:08:47.259
 Because if we don't, it's almost like the rabbit hole in Alice in Wonderland.

00:08:47.899 --> 00:08:53.039
 Because once she fell into that rabbit hole, her world changed.

00:08:53.379 --> 00:08:55.799
 Her entire perspective changed.

00:08:55.939 --> 00:08:58.120
 And she didn't stop until she reached the bottom,

00:08:59.080 --> 00:09:01.720
 which ended up being an imaginary place.

00:09:02.899 --> 00:09:05.480
 Now, if we don't believe the sovereignty of God,

00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:07.519
 our perspectives change,

00:09:07.519 --> 00:09:10.480
 and we don't end up until we reach the bottom,

00:09:10.620 --> 00:09:12.980
 which is believing in nothing.

00:09:13.259 --> 00:09:14.159
 And nothing, at least,

00:09:14.919 --> 00:09:15.860
 nothing objective,

00:09:16.559 --> 00:09:17.419
 at the least.

00:09:17.919 --> 00:09:18.259
 Meaning,

00:09:19.179 --> 00:09:20.220
 unchangeable,

00:09:20.340 --> 00:09:21.639
 nothing solid.

00:09:23.799 --> 00:09:25.059
 A.W. Pink also says,

00:09:25.159 --> 00:09:25.720
 in a word,

00:09:26.279 --> 00:09:28.720
 to deny the sovereignty of God

00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:30.819
 is to enter upon a path

00:09:30.819 --> 00:09:32.120
 which, if followed,

00:09:32.740 --> 00:09:34.379
 to its logical terminus,

00:09:34.379 --> 00:09:37.159
 is to arrive at blank atheism.

00:09:37.519 --> 00:09:42.319
 In the book of Jonah,

00:09:42.960 --> 00:09:44.159
 as I've already mentioned,

00:09:44.279 --> 00:09:46.600
 God shows His sovereignty over creation,

00:09:47.439 --> 00:09:51.799
 but He also shows His sovereignty over His mercy,

00:09:52.500 --> 00:09:53.659
 His grace,

00:09:54.279 --> 00:09:55.179
 His salvation.

00:09:56.220 --> 00:09:56.399
 Okay?

00:09:56.399 --> 00:10:00.919
 If a judge shows mercy to a criminal,

00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:03.740
 if the judge says,

00:10:03.879 --> 00:10:05.039
 I'm going to let you go,

00:10:05.600 --> 00:10:06.579
 no charges,

00:10:06.860 --> 00:10:08.259
 you're free to roam,

00:10:10.259 --> 00:10:13.379
 it is the judge's mercy that was given.

00:10:14.419 --> 00:10:17.100
 He is the author of that mercy.

00:10:17.100 --> 00:10:20.040
 It was His mercy to give,

00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:22.060
 and He chose to give it to the criminal.

00:10:23.080 --> 00:10:24.420
 The same way for God.

00:10:24.779 --> 00:10:27.220
 God is the author of His mercy,

00:10:27.500 --> 00:10:29.240
 and He is sovereign over that mercy.

00:10:29.379 --> 00:10:31.120
 And He chooses to give mercy

00:10:31.120 --> 00:10:34.639
 to whom He will give mercy.

00:10:34.779 --> 00:10:36.019
 Romans 9.15,

00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:38.220
 Exodus 33.19,

00:10:38.220 --> 00:10:41.100
 I will have mercy on whom I have mercy,

00:10:41.600 --> 00:10:44.980
 and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.

00:10:48.660 --> 00:10:50.100
 Hard truth.

00:10:50.840 --> 00:10:52.259
 We as human beings

00:10:52.259 --> 00:10:57.220
 do not have right to the mercy of God.

00:10:58.360 --> 00:11:00.120
 We don't have right to that.

00:11:01.960 --> 00:11:04.100
 Otherwise, it would not be mercy at all.

00:11:04.100 --> 00:11:06.220
 It would be payment or wages earned.

00:11:08.019 --> 00:11:10.580
 And the same is for grace.

00:11:14.019 --> 00:11:15.159
 God is sovereign,

00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:17.200
 which means He is sovereign over creation,

00:11:18.740 --> 00:11:19.840
 sovereign over grace,

00:11:20.420 --> 00:11:21.320
 over His mercy,

00:11:22.060 --> 00:11:23.180
 and over His salvation.

00:11:23.379 --> 00:11:24.159
 And in this story,

00:11:24.279 --> 00:11:26.560
 we have God providing salvation,

00:11:27.220 --> 00:11:28.600
 showing Jonah mercy

00:11:28.600 --> 00:11:30.920
 by His sovereign hand.

00:11:34.100 --> 00:11:34.740
 So,

00:11:35.220 --> 00:11:37.139
 the sovereignty of God

00:11:37.139 --> 00:11:38.920
 is important.

00:11:39.960 --> 00:11:41.440
 It's important to understand.

00:11:42.120 --> 00:11:43.100
 It puts perspective

00:11:43.100 --> 00:11:46.320
 for you and for me.

00:11:49.460 --> 00:11:51.960
 Jonah's prayer in chapter 2

00:11:51.960 --> 00:11:53.580
 is a prayer of repentance.

00:11:54.680 --> 00:11:56.620
 Acknowledging the sovereignty of God

00:11:56.620 --> 00:11:59.340
 is an important aspect of repentance.

00:11:59.340 --> 00:12:05.180
 Jonah admits God's sovereignty.

00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:07.620
 I've read you verse 3.

00:12:07.860 --> 00:12:09.379
 For you cast me into the deep,

00:12:09.420 --> 00:12:10.399
 into the heart of the seas,

00:12:10.560 --> 00:12:11.860
 and the floods surrounded me.

00:12:12.080 --> 00:12:14.500
 All your ways and your billows

00:12:14.500 --> 00:12:15.420
 passed over me.

00:12:16.860 --> 00:12:18.379
 You cast me into the deep.

00:12:18.480 --> 00:12:19.680
 Jonah's not saying that

00:12:19.680 --> 00:12:21.639
 he's the one at fault.

00:12:22.780 --> 00:12:24.759
 Jonah's acknowledging that

00:12:24.759 --> 00:12:27.400
 my bad, almost.

00:12:27.399 --> 00:12:30.860
 I'm the one who messed up.

00:12:31.159 --> 00:12:32.559
 I was the one thrown overboard.

00:12:33.000 --> 00:12:33.379
 However,

00:12:34.000 --> 00:12:35.120
 you, God,

00:12:35.379 --> 00:12:36.079
 allowed it,

00:12:36.100 --> 00:12:36.939
 or permitted it,

00:12:37.039 --> 00:12:37.679
 to happen,

00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:40.439
 so that you can receive glory.

00:12:42.179 --> 00:12:44.000
 All your ways and your billows

00:12:44.000 --> 00:12:44.959
 passed over me.

00:12:45.819 --> 00:12:47.360
 He's admitting God's rule

00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:48.579
 over His creation.

00:12:50.579 --> 00:12:52.179
 It's as A.W. Pink,

00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:53.019
 as the potter,

00:12:53.019 --> 00:12:54.179
 rules the clay.

00:12:55.139 --> 00:12:56.960
 Romans 9 reminds us of that.

00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:00.360
 The reason it's important

00:13:00.360 --> 00:13:01.559
 to admit God's sovereignty

00:13:01.559 --> 00:13:04.079
 is when we realize our place,

00:13:04.319 --> 00:13:07.100
 when we see who God is,

00:13:07.379 --> 00:13:08.459
 how great He is,

00:13:08.519 --> 00:13:09.699
 how supreme He is,

00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:11.819
 we're left in awe

00:13:11.819 --> 00:13:13.740
 and shame

00:13:13.740 --> 00:13:15.639
 of our inadequacies.

00:13:15.639 --> 00:13:18.019
 I would say it's almost

00:13:18.019 --> 00:13:18.840
 like a plumb line.

00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:20.139
 Some people like to say

00:13:20.139 --> 00:13:21.899
 that God is more

00:13:21.899 --> 00:13:22.759
 like a plumb line.

00:13:22.980 --> 00:13:24.080
 And my problem with that

00:13:24.080 --> 00:13:25.439
 is we would try to

00:13:25.439 --> 00:13:27.519
 line up with that plumb line.

00:13:27.659 --> 00:13:29.439
 And that's not really

00:13:29.439 --> 00:13:31.039
 what the sovereignty of God is.

00:13:31.159 --> 00:13:32.100
 And it's not up here

00:13:32.100 --> 00:13:32.600
 because

00:13:32.600 --> 00:13:34.779
 we don't look at it

00:13:34.779 --> 00:13:35.699
 and see ourselves.

00:13:37.379 --> 00:13:38.860
 I think it's more like a window.

00:13:39.340 --> 00:13:40.439
 We look through a window

00:13:40.440 --> 00:13:42.220
 and we see the goodness of God.

00:13:42.300 --> 00:13:43.820
 We see God's

00:13:43.820 --> 00:13:44.360
 greatness,

00:13:44.660 --> 00:13:45.260
 His righteousness,

00:13:45.640 --> 00:13:46.460
 His justice,

00:13:46.620 --> 00:13:47.140
 His holiness.

00:13:48.040 --> 00:13:49.640
 But looking back at us,

00:13:49.980 --> 00:13:52.240
 covering up what we just saw

00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:53.260
 is our,

00:13:53.740 --> 00:13:54.640
 who we really are.

00:13:55.800 --> 00:13:55.960
 And

00:13:55.960 --> 00:14:00.520
 we have to have

00:14:00.520 --> 00:14:01.480
 that proper perspective.

00:14:01.620 --> 00:14:02.220
 We have to be able

00:14:02.220 --> 00:14:03.240
 to see who God is,

00:14:03.440 --> 00:14:04.560
 but in reality,

00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:05.620
 know who we are.

00:14:05.620 --> 00:14:07.820
 Otherwise,

00:14:08.340 --> 00:14:10.399
 why would we repent?

00:14:12.179 --> 00:14:12.960
 Historians have said

00:14:12.960 --> 00:14:14.620
 that we look to history

00:14:14.620 --> 00:14:15.879
 so that we don't make

00:14:15.879 --> 00:14:16.799
 the same mistakes.

00:14:17.980 --> 00:14:18.700
 Well, for us,

00:14:18.740 --> 00:14:19.440
 we look to history

00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:20.139
 so that we see

00:14:20.139 --> 00:14:20.980
 what God has done

00:14:20.980 --> 00:14:23.060
 and what He's doing

00:14:23.060 --> 00:14:24.560
 and what He's going to do

00:14:24.560 --> 00:14:26.340
 for you and for me.

00:14:27.720 --> 00:14:28.840
 And proper perspective

00:14:28.840 --> 00:14:30.379
 is vital to

00:14:30.379 --> 00:14:31.039
 a godly,

00:14:31.139 --> 00:14:32.220
 repentant heart.

00:14:32.980 --> 00:14:34.080
 So Jonah admits

00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:35.259
 God's sovereignty.

00:14:35.620 --> 00:14:39.360
 Second thing that Jonah does

00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:40.539
 is he feels

00:14:40.539 --> 00:14:41.980
 the weight of his sin.

00:14:43.259 --> 00:14:44.100
 Verse 2

00:14:44.100 --> 00:14:46.120
 and then verse 4

00:14:46.120 --> 00:14:46.820
 and verse 6.

00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:49.600
 Verse 2 says,

00:14:49.740 --> 00:14:50.919
 I called out to the Lord

00:14:50.919 --> 00:14:52.060
 out of my distress

00:14:52.060 --> 00:14:53.960
 and He answered me.

00:14:54.820 --> 00:14:56.600
 Out of the belly of Sheol

00:14:56.600 --> 00:14:57.320
 I cried

00:14:57.320 --> 00:14:58.080
 and you heard

00:14:58.080 --> 00:14:59.500
 my voice.

00:15:01.100 --> 00:15:02.120
 Down to 6.

00:15:03.340 --> 00:15:04.220
 Then I said,

00:15:04.299 --> 00:15:05.019
 I am driven away

00:15:05.019 --> 00:15:05.819
 from your sight

00:15:05.819 --> 00:15:07.500
 yet I shall again

00:15:07.500 --> 00:15:09.000
 look upon your holy temple.

00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:10.879
 The waters closed in

00:15:10.879 --> 00:15:11.279
 over me

00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:12.279
 to take my life.

00:15:12.699 --> 00:15:13.919
 The deep surrounded me.

00:15:14.079 --> 00:15:14.860
 Weeds were wrapped

00:15:14.860 --> 00:15:15.699
 about my head

00:15:15.699 --> 00:15:16.460
 and the roots

00:15:16.460 --> 00:15:17.159
 of the mountains.

00:15:18.159 --> 00:15:19.399
 I went down

00:15:19.399 --> 00:15:20.039
 to the land

00:15:20.039 --> 00:15:20.659
 whose bars

00:15:20.659 --> 00:15:21.899
 closed upon me

00:15:21.899 --> 00:15:22.379
 forever.

00:15:24.559 --> 00:15:25.439
 The author

00:15:25.439 --> 00:15:27.460
 gives us a picture

00:15:27.460 --> 00:15:28.240
 of a man

00:15:28.240 --> 00:15:29.159
 in desperation.

00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:31.319
 a man who felt

00:15:31.319 --> 00:15:32.000
 like he had been

00:15:32.000 --> 00:15:33.019
 eaten by death

00:15:33.019 --> 00:15:34.939
 not by a big fish.

00:15:36.419 --> 00:15:38.059
 Out of the belly

00:15:38.059 --> 00:15:38.919
 of Sheol

00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:39.679
 I cried.

00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:40.919
 Now when we see

00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:41.779
 a word like belly

00:15:41.779 --> 00:15:42.519
 and we know

00:15:42.519 --> 00:15:42.980
 that he's been

00:15:42.980 --> 00:15:43.879
 swallowed by a fish

00:15:43.879 --> 00:15:44.699
 we automatically say

00:15:44.699 --> 00:15:45.159
 well he's talking

00:15:45.159 --> 00:15:45.919
 about the fish.

00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:47.100
 What he's talking

00:15:47.100 --> 00:15:48.339
 about is

00:15:48.339 --> 00:15:51.459
 deep down

00:15:51.459 --> 00:15:53.120
 the furthest

00:15:53.120 --> 00:15:53.919
 you could go

00:15:53.919 --> 00:15:55.839
 out of the belly

00:15:55.840 --> 00:15:56.960
 of Sheol.

00:15:57.340 --> 00:15:58.220
 Sheol in the Bible

00:15:58.220 --> 00:15:59.040
 most of the time

00:15:59.040 --> 00:16:00.000
 refers to the realm

00:16:00.000 --> 00:16:00.660
 of the dead

00:16:00.660 --> 00:16:02.759
 or place of the dead.

00:16:03.320 --> 00:16:04.040
 Those that are

00:16:04.040 --> 00:16:05.300
 separated from God.

00:16:06.920 --> 00:16:07.740
 For us

00:16:07.740 --> 00:16:08.660
 this text

00:16:08.660 --> 00:16:09.000
 has

00:16:09.000 --> 00:16:09.720
 this meaning

00:16:09.720 --> 00:16:10.920
 has two meanings

00:16:10.920 --> 00:16:11.320
 for us.

00:16:11.379 --> 00:16:11.879
 This word has

00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:12.440
 two meanings.

00:16:13.280 --> 00:16:13.960
 Jonah admits

00:16:13.960 --> 00:16:14.700
 that he's separated

00:16:14.700 --> 00:16:15.259
 from God

00:16:15.259 --> 00:16:16.780
 which he had already

00:16:16.780 --> 00:16:17.840
 admitted in chapter 1

00:16:17.840 --> 00:16:18.280
 I'm running

00:16:18.280 --> 00:16:18.879
 from the presence

00:16:18.879 --> 00:16:19.420
 of God.

00:16:19.759 --> 00:16:20.879
 I am no longer

00:16:20.879 --> 00:16:21.920
 in God's will.

00:16:24.780 --> 00:16:25.259
 And second

00:16:25.259 --> 00:16:26.860
 it means that

00:16:26.860 --> 00:16:27.740
 Jonah believed

00:16:27.740 --> 00:16:28.500
 he was going

00:16:28.500 --> 00:16:29.000
 to die.

00:16:29.399 --> 00:16:30.019
 He had reached

00:16:30.019 --> 00:16:30.500
 the point

00:16:30.500 --> 00:16:30.960
 of despair

00:16:30.960 --> 00:16:32.059
 and in his

00:16:32.059 --> 00:16:32.759
 last moments

00:16:32.759 --> 00:16:33.379
 or seconds

00:16:33.379 --> 00:16:34.759
 he cried out

00:16:34.759 --> 00:16:35.240
 to God

00:16:35.240 --> 00:16:35.679
 and God

00:16:35.679 --> 00:16:36.379
 showed mercy

00:16:36.379 --> 00:16:39.000
 and heard him.

00:16:42.580 --> 00:16:43.019
 See we

00:16:43.019 --> 00:16:46.980
 I think we have

00:16:46.980 --> 00:16:47.720
 a low view

00:16:47.720 --> 00:16:48.299
 of sin

00:16:48.299 --> 00:16:49.419
 and a

00:16:49.419 --> 00:16:50.899
 high view

00:16:50.899 --> 00:16:51.600
 of ourselves.

00:16:51.600 --> 00:16:55.460
 here

00:16:55.460 --> 00:16:56.800
 Jonah

00:16:56.800 --> 00:16:58.060
 after

00:16:58.060 --> 00:16:58.860
 making his

00:16:58.860 --> 00:16:59.379
 mistakes

00:16:59.379 --> 00:16:59.960
 and being

00:16:59.960 --> 00:17:00.740
 disobedient

00:17:00.740 --> 00:17:01.920
 and coming

00:17:01.920 --> 00:17:02.580
 to this point

00:17:02.580 --> 00:17:03.440
 he now has

00:17:03.440 --> 00:17:04.960
 a low view

00:17:04.960 --> 00:17:05.559
 of himself

00:17:05.559 --> 00:17:06.980
 and a high

00:17:06.980 --> 00:17:07.360
 view

00:17:07.360 --> 00:17:08.420
 of sin

00:17:08.420 --> 00:17:10.000
 because

00:17:10.000 --> 00:17:10.559
 of course

00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:11.880
 he admits

00:17:11.880 --> 00:17:12.960
 God's sovereign

00:17:12.960 --> 00:17:13.980
 hand in this

00:17:13.980 --> 00:17:15.400
 situation.

00:17:15.559 --> 00:17:15.680
 Now

00:17:15.680 --> 00:17:17.660
 let me put it

00:17:17.660 --> 00:17:18.140
 this way

00:17:18.140 --> 00:17:19.780
 if you stole

00:17:19.780 --> 00:17:20.200
 a pen

00:17:20.200 --> 00:17:20.780
 or a notebook

00:17:20.780 --> 00:17:21.200
 from the

00:17:21.200 --> 00:17:21.840
 school bookstore

00:17:21.840 --> 00:17:24.340
 we would all

00:17:24.340 --> 00:17:24.980
 say that's

00:17:24.980 --> 00:17:26.060
 that's not a

00:17:26.060 --> 00:17:26.820
 really big deal

00:17:26.820 --> 00:17:27.340
 just take it

00:17:27.340 --> 00:17:27.700
 back

00:17:27.700 --> 00:17:29.580
 or go pay

00:17:29.580 --> 00:17:30.020
 for it

00:17:30.020 --> 00:17:30.620
 three bucks

00:17:30.620 --> 00:17:31.220
 or whatever

00:17:31.220 --> 00:17:31.640
 it is

00:17:31.640 --> 00:17:32.259
 it's really

00:17:32.259 --> 00:17:32.680
 not

00:17:32.680 --> 00:17:34.120
 that

00:17:34.120 --> 00:17:35.060
 huge

00:17:35.060 --> 00:17:36.820
 but it

00:17:36.820 --> 00:17:37.580
 is a sin

00:17:37.580 --> 00:17:39.100
 and sin

00:17:39.100 --> 00:17:40.720
 is an offense

00:17:40.720 --> 00:17:41.480
 against a

00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:42.040
 holy

00:17:42.040 --> 00:17:43.500
 infinite

00:17:43.500 --> 00:17:44.160
 God

00:17:44.160 --> 00:17:46.380
 so

00:17:46.380 --> 00:17:46.940
 when we

00:17:46.940 --> 00:17:47.440
 sin

00:17:47.440 --> 00:17:48.800
 stealing

00:17:48.800 --> 00:17:49.200
 a pack

00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:49.740
 of gum

00:17:49.740 --> 00:17:50.860
 candy

00:17:50.860 --> 00:17:51.320
 bar

00:17:51.320 --> 00:17:52.240
 a pencil

00:17:52.240 --> 00:17:53.259
 a car

00:17:53.259 --> 00:17:54.440
 this is a

00:17:54.440 --> 00:17:55.000
 big jump

00:17:55.000 --> 00:17:58.000
 we sin

00:17:58.000 --> 00:17:58.660
 against his

00:17:58.660 --> 00:17:59.240
 righteousness

00:17:59.240 --> 00:18:00.500
 which then

00:18:00.500 --> 00:18:01.140
 makes us

00:18:01.140 --> 00:18:01.759
 guilty

00:18:01.759 --> 00:18:02.920
 and deserving

00:18:02.920 --> 00:18:03.640
 of hell

00:18:03.640 --> 00:18:06.500
 see our

00:18:06.500 --> 00:18:07.259
 perspective

00:18:07.259 --> 00:18:07.720
 wants to

00:18:07.720 --> 00:18:07.920
 say

00:18:07.920 --> 00:18:08.320
 no big

00:18:08.320 --> 00:18:08.620
 deal

00:18:08.620 --> 00:18:10.120
 just

00:18:10.120 --> 00:18:10.600
 take it

00:18:10.600 --> 00:18:10.860
 back

00:18:10.860 --> 00:18:11.160
 pay

00:18:11.160 --> 00:18:11.840
 for it

00:18:11.840 --> 00:18:13.380
 you know

00:18:13.380 --> 00:18:14.020
 you slap

00:18:14.020 --> 00:18:14.580
 on the wrist

00:18:14.580 --> 00:18:14.940
 you stole

00:18:14.940 --> 00:18:15.400
 a pencil

00:18:15.400 --> 00:18:17.040
 who hasn't

00:18:17.040 --> 00:18:17.540
 stolen from

00:18:17.540 --> 00:18:18.080
 the workplace

00:18:18.080 --> 00:18:19.620
 or whatever

00:18:19.620 --> 00:18:22.420
 but to

00:18:22.420 --> 00:18:22.900
 God

00:18:22.900 --> 00:18:23.240
 it's

00:18:23.240 --> 00:18:23.860
 serious

00:18:23.860 --> 00:18:25.340
 sin

00:18:25.340 --> 00:18:26.020
 is way

00:18:26.020 --> 00:18:26.400
 more

00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:26.960
 sinister

00:18:26.960 --> 00:18:27.520
 than we

00:18:27.520 --> 00:18:28.040
 admit

00:18:28.040 --> 00:18:30.280
 when we

00:18:30.280 --> 00:18:30.640
 sin

00:18:30.640 --> 00:18:30.980
 we are

00:18:30.980 --> 00:18:31.300
 telling

00:18:31.300 --> 00:18:31.800
 God

00:18:31.800 --> 00:18:32.660
 that he

00:18:32.660 --> 00:18:33.280
 does not

00:18:33.279 --> 00:18:33.960
 deserve

00:18:33.960 --> 00:18:34.460
 our

00:18:34.460 --> 00:18:35.119
 praise

00:18:35.119 --> 00:18:36.639
 and our

00:18:36.639 --> 00:18:37.299
 respect

00:18:37.299 --> 00:18:39.019
 we're

00:18:39.019 --> 00:18:39.779
 saying to

00:18:39.779 --> 00:18:40.119
 God

00:18:40.119 --> 00:18:40.859
 you are

00:18:40.859 --> 00:18:41.059
 not

00:18:41.059 --> 00:18:41.319
 God

00:18:41.319 --> 00:18:41.740
 I am

00:18:41.740 --> 00:18:42.039
 God

00:18:42.039 --> 00:18:42.440
 and this

00:18:42.440 --> 00:18:42.579
 is

00:18:42.579 --> 00:18:42.920
 important

00:18:42.920 --> 00:18:43.399
 to me

00:18:43.399 --> 00:18:45.940
 even

00:18:45.940 --> 00:18:46.399
 if it's

00:18:46.399 --> 00:18:46.619
 something

00:18:46.619 --> 00:18:47.200
 as small

00:18:47.200 --> 00:18:47.740
 as stealing

00:18:47.740 --> 00:18:48.139
 a pack

00:18:48.139 --> 00:18:48.500
 of gum

00:18:48.500 --> 00:18:48.879
 or a

00:18:48.879 --> 00:18:49.119
 pen

00:18:49.119 --> 00:18:51.980
 and

00:18:51.980 --> 00:18:52.299
 Jonah

00:18:52.299 --> 00:18:52.559
 is

00:18:52.559 --> 00:18:53.059
 face

00:18:53.059 --> 00:18:53.240
 to

00:18:53.240 --> 00:18:53.619
 face

00:18:53.619 --> 00:18:53.940
 in

00:18:53.940 --> 00:18:54.680
 desperation

00:18:54.680 --> 00:18:55.980
 acknowledging

00:18:55.980 --> 00:18:57.220
 the sin

00:18:57.220 --> 00:18:57.839
 that he

00:18:57.839 --> 00:18:58.399
 committed

00:18:58.399 --> 00:18:59.740
 he sees

00:18:59.740 --> 00:18:59.899
 it

00:18:59.899 --> 00:19:00.279
 he has

00:19:00.279 --> 00:19:01.019
 the weight

00:19:01.019 --> 00:19:01.539
 of it

00:19:01.539 --> 00:19:02.920
 pushing

00:19:02.920 --> 00:19:03.180
 him

00:19:03.180 --> 00:19:03.279
 to

00:19:03.279 --> 00:19:03.440
 the

00:19:03.440 --> 00:19:03.720
 bottom

00:19:03.720 --> 00:19:03.940
 of

00:19:03.940 --> 00:19:04.080
 the

00:19:04.080 --> 00:19:04.420
 sea

00:19:04.420 --> 00:19:11.560
 he

00:19:11.560 --> 00:19:12.060
 says

00:19:12.060 --> 00:19:13.600
 I

00:19:13.600 --> 00:19:13.840
 went

00:19:13.840 --> 00:19:14.400
 down

00:19:14.400 --> 00:19:16.200
 in

00:19:16.200 --> 00:19:16.440
 verse

00:19:16.440 --> 00:19:16.820
 six

00:19:16.820 --> 00:19:17.019
 I

00:19:17.019 --> 00:19:17.200
 went

00:19:17.200 --> 00:19:17.700
 down

00:19:17.700 --> 00:19:17.980
 to

00:19:17.980 --> 00:19:18.140
 the

00:19:18.140 --> 00:19:18.600
 land

00:19:18.600 --> 00:19:19.140
 whose

00:19:19.140 --> 00:19:19.800
 bars

00:19:19.800 --> 00:19:20.220
 closed

00:19:20.220 --> 00:19:20.560
 upon

00:19:20.560 --> 00:19:20.940
 me

00:19:20.940 --> 00:19:22.080
 forever

00:19:22.079 --> 00:19:23.819
 he

00:19:23.819 --> 00:19:24.579
 was

00:19:24.579 --> 00:19:24.980
 sinking

00:19:24.980 --> 00:19:25.699
 further

00:19:25.699 --> 00:19:25.919
 and

00:19:25.919 --> 00:19:26.179
 further

00:19:26.179 --> 00:19:26.619
 down

00:19:26.619 --> 00:19:28.000
 he

00:19:28.000 --> 00:19:28.279
 felt

00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:28.480
 he

00:19:28.480 --> 00:19:28.740
 was

00:19:28.740 --> 00:19:29.419
 trapped

00:19:29.419 --> 00:19:29.759
 like

00:19:29.759 --> 00:19:30.259
 bars

00:19:30.259 --> 00:19:30.460
 of

00:19:30.460 --> 00:19:30.639
 a

00:19:30.639 --> 00:19:31.139
 prison

00:19:31.139 --> 00:19:33.779
 butterfly

00:19:33.779 --> 00:19:35.059
 he

00:19:35.059 --> 00:19:35.220
 was

00:19:35.220 --> 00:19:35.679
 imprisoned

00:19:35.679 --> 00:19:35.980
 by

00:19:35.980 --> 00:19:36.659
 death

00:19:36.659 --> 00:19:40.519
 now

00:19:40.519 --> 00:19:41.379
 as a

00:19:41.379 --> 00:19:41.799
 pastor

00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:42.519
 and I

00:19:42.519 --> 00:19:42.899
 know

00:19:42.899 --> 00:19:43.179
 Nathan

00:19:43.179 --> 00:19:43.339
 would

00:19:43.339 --> 00:19:43.639
 agree

00:19:43.639 --> 00:19:43.939
 and if

00:19:43.939 --> 00:19:44.039
 you

00:19:44.039 --> 00:19:44.220
 guys

00:19:44.220 --> 00:19:44.379
 have

00:19:44.379 --> 00:19:44.500
 a

00:19:44.500 --> 00:19:44.980
 pastor's

00:19:44.980 --> 00:19:45.179
 heart

00:19:45.179 --> 00:19:45.339
 you

00:19:45.339 --> 00:19:45.460
 would

00:19:45.460 --> 00:19:45.779
 agree

00:19:45.779 --> 00:19:46.299
 I

00:19:46.299 --> 00:19:46.679
 don't

00:19:46.679 --> 00:19:46.939
 want

00:19:46.939 --> 00:19:47.099
 to

00:19:47.099 --> 00:19:47.379
 see

00:19:47.379 --> 00:19:47.720
 any

00:19:47.720 --> 00:19:47.980
 of

00:19:47.980 --> 00:19:48.259
 you

00:19:48.259 --> 00:19:49.119
 in

00:19:49.119 --> 00:19:49.680
 Jonah's

00:19:49.680 --> 00:19:50.180
 spot

00:19:50.180 --> 00:19:51.259
 I

00:19:51.259 --> 00:19:51.359
 don't

00:19:51.359 --> 00:19:51.460
 want

00:19:51.460 --> 00:19:51.519
 to

00:19:51.519 --> 00:19:51.660
 see

00:19:51.660 --> 00:19:52.099
 anybody

00:19:52.099 --> 00:19:52.299
 in

00:19:52.299 --> 00:19:52.680
 Jonah's

00:19:52.680 --> 00:19:53.039
 spot

00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:55.319
 the

00:19:55.319 --> 00:19:55.640
 point

00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:55.799
 of

00:19:55.799 --> 00:19:56.420
 desperation

00:19:56.420 --> 00:19:56.720
 and

00:19:56.720 --> 00:19:57.299
 then

00:19:57.299 --> 00:19:57.819
 you

00:19:57.819 --> 00:19:58.240
 finally

00:19:58.240 --> 00:19:58.619
 cry

00:19:58.619 --> 00:19:58.819
 out

00:19:58.819 --> 00:19:58.980
 to

00:19:58.980 --> 00:19:59.299
 God

00:19:59.299 --> 00:20:00.059
 oh

00:20:00.059 --> 00:20:00.240
 well

00:20:00.240 --> 00:20:00.420
 God

00:20:00.420 --> 00:20:00.619
 is

00:20:00.619 --> 00:20:01.079
 sovereign

00:20:01.079 --> 00:20:03.000
 God

00:20:03.000 --> 00:20:03.319
 is

00:20:03.319 --> 00:20:03.980
 ruler

00:20:03.980 --> 00:20:04.240
 of

00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:04.660
 all

00:20:04.660 --> 00:20:05.480
 maybe

00:20:05.480 --> 00:20:05.660
 I

00:20:05.660 --> 00:20:05.960
 should

00:20:05.960 --> 00:20:07.019
 acknowledge

00:20:07.019 --> 00:20:07.480
 him

00:20:07.480 --> 00:20:16.579
 the

00:20:16.579 --> 00:20:16.819
 truth

00:20:16.819 --> 00:20:16.960
 of

00:20:16.960 --> 00:20:17.059
 the

00:20:17.059 --> 00:20:17.299
 matter

00:20:17.299 --> 00:20:17.579
 though

00:20:17.579 --> 00:20:17.720
 is

00:20:17.720 --> 00:20:17.879
 that

00:20:17.880 --> 00:20:18.500
 sometimes

00:20:18.500 --> 00:20:19.140
 for

00:20:19.140 --> 00:20:19.520
 us

00:20:19.520 --> 00:20:21.080
 it

00:20:21.080 --> 00:20:21.540
 takes

00:20:21.540 --> 00:20:21.820
 a

00:20:21.820 --> 00:20:22.320
 situation

00:20:22.320 --> 00:20:22.700
 like

00:20:22.700 --> 00:20:23.000
 this

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:23.200
 or

00:20:23.200 --> 00:20:24.200
 situations

00:20:24.200 --> 00:20:26.280
 see

00:20:26.280 --> 00:20:27.220
 I

00:20:27.220 --> 00:20:27.640
 want

00:20:27.640 --> 00:20:28.820
 and I

00:20:28.820 --> 00:20:29.220
 know

00:20:29.220 --> 00:20:29.500
 Nathan

00:20:29.500 --> 00:20:29.760
 feels

00:20:29.760 --> 00:20:29.900
 this

00:20:29.900 --> 00:20:30.060
 way

00:20:44.760 --> 00:20:45.200
 victorious

00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:45.600
 in

00:20:45.600 --> 00:20:45.740
 the

00:20:45.740 --> 00:20:46.040
 life

00:20:46.039 --> 00:20:47.740
 of

00:20:47.740 --> 00:20:48.220
 following

00:20:48.220 --> 00:20:48.700
 Christ

00:20:48.700 --> 00:20:51.940
 doesn't

00:20:51.940 --> 00:20:52.319
 end up

00:20:52.319 --> 00:20:52.579
 that way

00:20:52.579 --> 00:20:52.920
 does it

00:20:52.920 --> 00:20:55.619
 we

00:20:55.619 --> 00:20:56.339
 tend

00:20:56.339 --> 00:20:56.619
 to

00:20:56.619 --> 00:20:57.119
 end up

00:20:57.119 --> 00:20:57.839
 like

00:20:57.839 --> 00:20:58.139
 Jonah

00:20:58.139 --> 00:20:59.379
 and

00:20:59.379 --> 00:21:00.299
 probably

00:21:00.299 --> 00:21:01.299
 in fact

00:21:01.299 --> 00:21:01.680
 I know

00:21:01.680 --> 00:21:02.019
 this is

00:21:02.019 --> 00:21:02.200
 why

00:21:02.200 --> 00:21:02.460
 a book

00:21:02.460 --> 00:21:02.740
 like

00:21:02.740 --> 00:21:03.039
 Jonah

00:21:03.039 --> 00:21:03.279
 is

00:21:03.279 --> 00:21:03.519
 in

00:21:03.519 --> 00:21:03.940
 the

00:21:03.940 --> 00:21:04.240
 Bible

00:21:04.240 --> 00:21:05.139
 not

00:21:05.139 --> 00:21:05.319
 to

00:21:05.319 --> 00:21:05.559
 say

00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:05.980
 look

00:21:05.980 --> 00:21:06.139
 what

00:21:06.139 --> 00:21:06.420
 God

00:21:06.420 --> 00:21:06.619
 can

00:21:06.619 --> 00:21:06.799
 do

00:21:06.799 --> 00:21:06.940
 with

00:21:06.940 --> 00:21:07.039
 a

00:21:07.039 --> 00:21:07.200
 big

00:21:07.200 --> 00:21:07.539
 fish

00:21:07.539 --> 00:21:07.779
 although

00:21:07.779 --> 00:21:08.099
 that's

00:21:08.099 --> 00:21:08.460
 important

00:21:08.460 --> 00:21:10.059
 but

00:21:10.059 --> 00:21:10.240
 to

00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:10.639
 say

00:21:10.639 --> 00:21:12.940
 that

00:21:12.940 --> 00:21:13.139
 you're

00:21:13.139 --> 00:21:13.279
 going

00:21:13.279 --> 00:21:13.359
 to

00:21:13.359 --> 00:21:13.599
 mess

00:21:13.599 --> 00:21:13.980
 up

00:21:13.980 --> 00:21:15.000
 that

00:21:15.000 --> 00:21:15.139
 you're

00:21:15.139 --> 00:21:15.240
 going

00:21:15.240 --> 00:21:15.259
 to

00:21:15.259 --> 00:21:15.379
 be

00:21:15.380 --> 00:21:15.520
 in

00:21:15.520 --> 00:21:15.880
 desperation

00:21:15.880 --> 00:21:16.340
 but

00:21:16.340 --> 00:21:16.640
 God

00:21:16.640 --> 00:21:16.780
 is

00:21:16.780 --> 00:21:16.900
 going

00:21:16.900 --> 00:21:16.940
 to

00:21:16.940 --> 00:21:17.060
 be

00:21:17.060 --> 00:21:17.460
 merciful

00:21:17.460 --> 00:21:18.820
 God

00:21:18.820 --> 00:21:19.000
 is

00:21:19.000 --> 00:21:19.160
 going

00:21:19.160 --> 00:21:19.400
 to

00:21:19.400 --> 00:21:20.440
 provide

00:21:20.440 --> 00:21:21.220
 salvation

00:21:21.220 --> 00:21:21.700
 for

00:21:21.700 --> 00:21:22.040
 you

00:21:22.040 --> 00:21:22.860
 and

00:21:22.860 --> 00:21:23.060
 he's

00:21:23.060 --> 00:21:23.200
 going

00:21:23.200 --> 00:21:23.400
 to

00:21:23.400 --> 00:21:23.740
 prove

00:21:23.740 --> 00:21:23.940
 his

00:21:23.940 --> 00:21:24.260
 goodness

00:21:24.260 --> 00:21:24.620
 and

00:21:24.620 --> 00:21:25.000
 prove

00:21:25.000 --> 00:21:25.220
 his

00:21:25.220 --> 00:21:25.600
 sovereignty

00:21:25.600 --> 00:21:26.140
 and

00:21:26.140 --> 00:21:26.500
 prove

00:21:26.500 --> 00:21:26.700
 his

00:21:26.700 --> 00:21:27.000
 mercy

00:21:27.000 --> 00:21:27.220
 to

00:21:27.220 --> 00:21:27.500
 you

00:21:27.500 --> 00:21:32.000
 even

00:21:32.000 --> 00:21:34.000
 in

00:21:34.000 --> 00:21:34.180
 this

00:21:34.180 --> 00:21:34.680
 repentant

00:21:34.680 --> 00:21:35.060
 prayer

00:21:35.060 --> 00:21:36.000
 of

00:21:36.000 --> 00:21:36.300
 Jonah

00:21:36.300 --> 00:21:37.560
 we

00:21:37.560 --> 00:21:37.980
 see

00:21:37.980 --> 00:21:38.880
 the

00:21:38.880 --> 00:21:39.460
 depravity

00:21:39.460 --> 00:21:39.660
 of

00:21:39.660 --> 00:21:40.040
 man

00:21:40.040 --> 00:21:41.920
 for

00:21:41.920 --> 00:21:42.640
 Jonah

00:21:42.640 --> 00:21:43.220
 waited

00:21:43.220 --> 00:21:43.960
 till

00:21:43.960 --> 00:21:44.260
 he had

00:21:44.260 --> 00:21:44.520
 no

00:21:44.520 --> 00:21:44.900
 hope

00:21:44.900 --> 00:21:45.880
 he

00:21:45.880 --> 00:21:46.300
 waited

00:21:46.300 --> 00:21:46.940
 and

00:21:46.940 --> 00:21:47.100
 then

00:21:47.100 --> 00:21:47.240
 he

00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:47.560
 cries

00:21:47.560 --> 00:21:47.759
 out

00:21:47.759 --> 00:21:47.900
 to

00:21:47.900 --> 00:21:48.200
 God

00:21:48.200 --> 00:21:49.720
 this

00:21:49.720 --> 00:21:50.140
 prayer

00:21:50.140 --> 00:21:50.340
 is

00:21:50.340 --> 00:21:50.640
 talking

00:21:50.640 --> 00:21:50.900
 about

00:21:50.900 --> 00:21:51.140
 him

00:21:51.140 --> 00:21:51.640
 sinking

00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:51.880
 in

00:21:51.880 --> 00:21:52.000
 the

00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:52.360
 water

00:21:52.360 --> 00:21:53.300
 weeds

00:21:53.300 --> 00:21:53.640
 coming

00:21:53.640 --> 00:21:54.060
 around

00:21:54.060 --> 00:21:54.519
 him

00:21:54.519 --> 00:22:01.880
 you know

00:22:01.880 --> 00:22:02.360
 not only

00:22:02.360 --> 00:22:02.820
 does our

 does our

00:22:03.400 --> 00:22:04.000
 situation

00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:04.660
 around us

00:22:04.820 --> 00:22:05.519
 circumstances

00:22:05.519 --> 00:22:05.860
 however

00:22:05.860 --> 00:22:06.240
 hard

00:22:06.240 --> 00:22:06.440
 they

00:22:06.440 --> 00:22:06.700
 are

00:22:07.600 --> 00:22:08.080
 make

00:22:08.080 --> 00:22:08.280
 us

00:22:08.280 --> 00:22:08.680
 feel

00:22:08.680 --> 00:22:08.880
 the

00:22:08.880 --> 00:22:09.340
 despair

00:22:09.340 --> 00:22:09.540
 and

00:22:09.540 --> 00:22:10.120
 hopelessness

00:22:10.120 --> 00:22:10.340
 that

00:22:10.340 --> 00:22:10.600
 comes

00:22:10.600 --> 00:22:10.840
 with

00:22:10.840 --> 00:22:11.160
 sin

00:22:11.160 --> 00:22:12.820
 but

00:22:12.820 --> 00:22:13.140
 also

00:22:13.140 --> 00:22:13.340
 the

00:22:13.340 --> 00:22:13.759
 reality

00:22:13.759 --> 00:22:13.960
 of

00:22:13.960 --> 00:22:14.180
 no

00:22:14.180 --> 00:22:14.519
 longer

00:22:14.900 --> 00:22:15.100
 in

00:22:15.100 --> 00:22:15.400
 God's

00:22:15.400 --> 00:22:15.720
 plan

00:22:15.720 --> 00:22:16.779
 no

00:22:16.779 --> 00:22:17.120
 longer

00:22:17.120 --> 00:22:17.440
 doing

00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:17.640
 what

00:22:17.640 --> 00:22:17.900
 God

00:22:17.900 --> 00:22:18.259
 had

00:22:18.259 --> 00:22:19.700
 commanded

00:22:19.700 --> 00:22:20.000
 us

00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:20.180
 or

00:22:20.180 --> 00:22:20.880
 called

00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:21.180
 us

00:22:21.180 --> 00:22:21.360
 to

00:22:21.360 --> 00:22:21.720
 do

00:22:21.720 --> 00:22:23.500
 that

00:22:23.500 --> 00:22:24.240
 causes

00:22:24.240 --> 00:22:27.000
 desperation

00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:27.480
 and

00:22:27.480 --> 00:22:28.140
 hopelessness

00:22:28.140 --> 00:22:28.420
 as

00:22:28.420 --> 00:22:28.900
 well

00:22:28.900 --> 00:22:32.920
 that's

00:22:32.920 --> 00:22:33.119
 just

00:22:33.119 --> 00:22:33.640
 evidence

00:22:33.640 --> 00:22:33.839
 of

00:22:33.839 --> 00:22:34.079
 God

00:22:34.079 --> 00:22:34.460
 working

00:22:34.460 --> 00:22:34.759
 though

 himself

00:22:39.920 --> 00:22:40.240
 to

 us

00:22:40.579 --> 00:22:40.900
 even

00:22:40.900 --> 00:22:41.140

00:23:27.100 --> 00:23:27.480
 God

00:23:27.480 --> 00:23:27.680
 was

00:23:27.680 --> 00:23:28.140
 merciful

00:23:28.140 --> 00:23:29.480
 and

00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:29.680
 knew

00:23:29.680 --> 00:23:29.860
 that

00:23:29.860 --> 00:23:29.960
 he

00:23:29.960 --> 00:23:30.059
 would

 be

00:23:30.200 --> 00:23:30.700
 rescued

 after

00:23:33.140 --> 00:23:33.620
 death

00:23:33.620 --> 00:23:38.880
 we

00:23:38.880 --> 00:23:40.220
 we

00:23:41.779 --> 00:23:42.339
 ever

00:23:42.339 --> 00:23:42.720
 I'll

00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:42.900
 say

00:23:42.900 --> 00:23:43.120
 an

00:23:43.120 --> 00:23:43.620
 extreme

00:23:43.620 --> 00:23:44.059
 statement

00:23:46.799 --> 00:23:47.440
 on

00:23:47.440 --> 00:23:47.900
 sin

00:23:47.900 --> 00:23:51.400
 without

00:23:51.400 --> 00:23:53.480
 serious

00:23:53.480 --> 00:23:54.880
 consideration

00:23:54.880 --> 00:23:55.340
 and

00:23:55.340 --> 00:23:56.620
 weighty

00:23:56.620 --> 00:23:57.780
 thought

00:23:57.780 --> 00:23:58.500
 sin

00:23:58.500 --> 00:23:58.780
 is

00:23:58.780 --> 00:23:59.320
 serious

00:23:59.320 --> 00:23:59.980
 stuff

00:23:59.980 --> 00:24:01.220
 it

00:24:01.220 --> 00:24:01.640
 breaks

00:24:01.640 --> 00:24:01.860
 our

00:24:01.860 --> 00:24:02.300
 fellowship

00:24:02.300 --> 00:24:02.680
 with the

00:24:02.680 --> 00:24:02.900
 heavenly

00:24:02.900 --> 00:24:03.380
 father

00:24:03.380 --> 00:24:04.640

00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:05.019
 Jonah

00:24:05.019 --> 00:24:05.800

00:24:05.800 --> 00:24:06.140
 prayer

00:24:06.140 --> 00:24:06.600
 we see

00:24:06.600 --> 00:24:07.320
 evidence

00:24:07.320 --> 00:24:08.660
 of

00:24:08.660 --> 00:24:09.800
 that

00:24:09.800 --> 00:24:11.120
 brings

00:24:11.120 --> 00:24:11.860
 desperation

00:24:11.859 --> 00:24:13.339
 and fear

00:24:13.339 --> 00:24:13.879
 of death

00:24:18.099 --> 00:24:18.359
 see

00:24:18.359 --> 00:24:18.519
 the

 Jonah

00:24:22.539 --> 00:24:22.879
 admits

00:24:22.879 --> 00:24:23.319
 God's

00:24:23.319 --> 00:24:23.779
 sovereignty

00:24:23.779 --> 00:24:26.599

00:24:26.599 --> 00:24:27.279
 forgot

00:24:27.279 --> 00:24:27.919
 my point

00:24:27.919 --> 00:24:28.879
 he feels

00:24:28.879 --> 00:24:29.339
 the weight

00:24:29.339 --> 00:24:29.719
 of his

00:24:29.719 --> 00:24:30.059
 sin

00:24:30.059 --> 00:24:31.399
 and

00:24:31.399 --> 00:24:31.639
 Jonah

00:24:31.639 --> 00:24:32.359
 rejoices

00:24:32.359 --> 00:24:32.899
 in

00:24:32.899 --> 00:24:33.679
 God's

00:24:33.679 --> 00:24:34.500

00:24:42.179 --> 00:24:42.859
 describes

00:24:42.859 --> 00:24:43.039
 the

00:24:43.039 --> 00:24:43.679
 situation

00:24:43.679 --> 00:24:44.339
 sinking

00:24:48.539 --> 00:24:48.679
 to

00:24:48.679 --> 00:24:48.899
 take

00:24:53.819 --> 00:24:54.199

 yet

00:25:02.880 --> 00:25:03.220
 you

00:25:03.220 --> 00:25:03.559
 brought

00:25:03.559 --> 00:25:03.700
 up

00:25:03.700 --> 00:25:03.880
 my

00:25:03.880 --> 00:25:04.180
 life

00:25:04.180 --> 00:25:04.339
 from

00:25:04.339 --> 00:25:04.500
 the

 fainting

00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:08.220
 away

 I

00:25:08.460 --> 00:25:08.779
 remember

00:25:15.440 --> 00:25:16.180
 showed

00:25:16.180 --> 00:25:16.900
 mercy

00:25:16.900 --> 00:25:17.180
 on

00:29:01.360 --> 00:29:01.600
 that's

00:29:01.600 --> 00:29:01.700
 what

00:32:11.939 --> 00:32:12.659
 it's

00:32:12.659 --> 00:32:13.899
 most

00:32:16.240 --> 00:32:16.619
 Israel

00:32:16.619 --> 00:32:17.240
 as he's

00:32:17.240 --> 00:32:17.720
 a prophet

00:32:17.720 --> 00:32:18.059

00:32:20.220 --> 00:32:20.700
 Israel

00:32:20.700 --> 00:32:21.079
 at this

00:32:21.079 --> 00:32:21.399
 time

00:32:26.079 --> 00:32:27.519
 disobedient

00:32:27.519 --> 00:32:29.639

00:32:29.639 --> 00:32:30.299
 fallen away

00:32:30.299 --> 00:32:30.779
 from being

00:32:30.779 --> 00:32:31.439

00:32:39.000 --> 00:32:39.680
 Jonah

00:32:39.680 --> 00:32:40.120
 has been

00:32:40.120 --> 00:32:40.380

00:32:43.220 --> 00:32:43.799
 rejoices

00:32:43.799 --> 00:32:44.019
 in
