Jonah and superficial repentance

(Old Facebook Post)

Those of you who studied Jonah in Sunday School today may especially be interested in this study which suggests Jonah’s chapter 2 prayer was a sham. I agree! (There is even more evidence than given here.)

Takeaway thought: Beware superficial repentance–repentance which is still self-centered, which feels worthy of God’s mercy and refuses to offer it to others.
