Jonah Chapter 3: Nineveh Repents
Oct 28th, 2009 | By admin | Category: Jonah, Verse by Verse --Studies led by Br. Frank Shallieu (Click on Book name)When we consider Jonah from the standpoint of representing The Christ, Head and body, the three days represent the fifth, sixth, and seventh “days” from Jesus’ baptism at Jordan to the completion of the Church. In the type, the Ninevites became converted, but in the antitype, the destruction of the nominal system will precede the conversion of the people. The ministry of the Church will be successful eventually, in due time. Nineveh pictures Christendom, to whom the feet members, the Elijah class, the John the Baptist class, will give a smiting message of reproof.
