The Sign Of Jonah Part 3: The Sacrifice (Jonah 1:14-16)

The sailors had tried everything to avoid throwing Jonah overboard, but all their collective efforts were not enough to save themselves or the ship. They prayed to Jonah's God and then they listened to Jonah's instruction, throwing him into the raging sea. Jesus, our Greater Jonah, has also been cast into the grave on our behalf, and through faith in Him we'll discover the power and provision of God. Like the sailors in Jonah's story, we'll discover the rescue of the gospel, and this saving faith becomes a shaping faith, transforming our decisions and inspiring grateful sacrifice.
