Subject: Did Jonah die in the belly of the fish? |
Bible Note: No offense Jesusman, but that is a pretty fantastic story, especially sense there is no whale, or fish, or [any] animal of any kind known to earth that can swallow a man whole. if you want to bring someone to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, please don't try it with a story like that one. You should not insult their intelligence by "blowing sunshine up their nose" like that. Faith comes by hearing the word of God, and His Word will not come back void, it will convict, convince or condemn. The Holy Spirit works through the Word of God. If facts could save, or seeing the truth could save, then why were so many that saw Jesus in person perform sings and wonders not saved? Seeing is not believing when it comes to saving faith. Only God can change a mans heart. Our job is to give out the Word of God, and the Holy Spirit does the rest. God bless John |
