Bible Note: There is a difference from translation and meaning. Now, I understand where you are coming from. It is not possible for one to repent and then refuse to follow one of God's commandments. Remember Peter preaching had pricked their hearts. But there is no reason to believe that they had repented at that time and that they had already been remitted of their sins based upon their repentance or the preaching that they heard. As I say again, then there would be no reason for Peter then to tell them to repent. Preaching can lead to repentance. But hearing Preaching do not mean one has repented. Nineveh showed their repentance through their actions that followed (they began to obey God.) If Jonah believed hearing preaching was the only thing need for salvation. Then he would not have waited to see what God would do to them. |
