Let us muse today from Jonah 3:4 and the message with no remedy. The message Jonah is to preach is, yet 40 days and Nineveh shall be overthrown. This message is very pointed with no promise of a remedy. I wonder sometimes if our gospel is not all about what man needs to do. Maybe we need to preach a message like Jonah that gives man no hope. We often make salvation to available for man. We seem to picture God as one who has His hat in His hand quietly waiting for man to make a decision. Our salvation is not in our hands but rest totally in God’s hands. The law of the Gospel brings man up short of the glory of God. It also plays a great part in the awaking of man and causing him to come to God by the power of the Holy Ghost.
