TODAY'S BIBLE TWEET

 

BIBLE TEXT: “Wherefore they cried unto the Lord, and said, We beseech thee, O Lord, we beseech thee, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not upon us innocent blood: for thou, O Lord, hast done as it pleased thee. So they took up Jonah, and cast him forth into the sea: and the sea ceased from her raging.” (Jonah 1:14-15 KJV)

 

BIBLE TWEET: The instant sin was cast overboard the sea was calmed and the ship was saved, proving to the sailors that the storm came from a sovereign Jehovah and was caused by the sinful Jonah.

 

BIBLE TAKEAWAY: As the sailors were saved by the sacrifice of another, the sinful Jonah, who voluntarily agreed to be cast into the sea for his own sin, we are saved by the sacrifice of another, the sinless Jesus, who voluntarily agreed to be crucified on Calvary for our sins. (John 10:17-18)
