Please turn with me to our text
for the sermon this Lord's Day, as it's found in Jonah 3, verse
10, and we'll read through chapter 4, verse 3. Jonah 3, 10. And God saw their
works, that they turned from their evil way, and God repented
of the evil that He had said that He would do unto them, and
he did it not. But it displeased Jonah exceedingly,
and he was very angry. And he prayed unto the Lord and
said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying when I was
yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto
Tarshish, for I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful,
slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
Therefore now, O Lord, take, I beseech thee, my life from
me, for it is better for me to die than to live. How amazing it is to see the
most holy God show mercy to the undeserving and to the ungodly
while at the same time Christians who have known the same undeserved
grace turn around and show anger and frustration at God's rich
display of mercy. Is there something wrong with
that picture? There's certainly nothing wrong
with the picture which displays a God who delights to show mercy
to the undeserving. But there is something terribly
wrong with the picture when Christians are vexed with the Lord who showers
His mercy even upon the chief of sinners. What hypocrisy, dear
ones, for us who know our own sinful hearts so well and who
know the undeserved kindness of the Lord in freely forgiving
and justifying us on the basis of Christ's death and righteousness
alone, to be vexed and frustrated with the Lord that he has freely
chosen to forgive and justify by faith alone those who at one
time hated and despised us. On the one hand, it is very distressing
that such hypocrisy and anger towards God could manifest itself
in the life of a Christian saved by God's grace. And yet, on the
other hand, it is very comforting to know that even the prophets
and apostles most mightily used by the Lord struggled with like
sinful infirmities with which you and I struggle. And the spiritual struggles,
dear ones, of the prophets and of the apostles were hardly minor
in nature, ranging from lying in Abraham to save his own neck,
adultery and murder in David, gross worldliness in Solomon
Overwhelming fear in Elijah in fleeing the threat of Jezebel. Anger and frustration with God
in Jonah. Doubt in John the Baptist who
questioned whether Christ was really the Messiah who was to
come. Pride in Peter who said he would
never, ever deny the Lord, even if all the rest denied him and
left him. He wouldn't do so. And a works
righteousness in Peter, who by his actions indicated that Gentiles
needed to keep the dietary laws of the Old Testament when he
refused to eat with Gentiles in the Church of Antioch. And
dear ones, the list could be expanded greatly. But is it not
abundantly clear that the Lord justifies the ungodly and has
come to spiritually heal those who are sick with various sinful
infirmities. Praise God that he has, for I
am among those who stand in continual need of God's mercy as I grow
in the grace and the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. This
Lord's Day we shall look, God willing, more closely at Jonah's
sin, but also at the occasion of Jonah's sin, at that which
occasioned Jonah's sin. Namely, God mercifully repenting
and turning away his righteous wrath from the great city of
Nineveh and bringing salvation to that great city. The main points this Lord's Day
from our text are the following. 1. The nature of God's merciful
repentance in turning away his wrath from the great city of
Nineveh. 2. The anger of Jonah at God
for bestowing his undeserved mercy. upon the great city of Nineveh
in Jonah chapter 4 verses 1 through 3. So let us consider then our first
main point. The nature of God's merciful
repentance in turning away his wrath from the great city of
Nineveh. Look with me once again at Jonah
3.10 where we read And God saw their works, that
they turned from their evil way, and God repented of the evil
that He had said that He would do unto them, and He did it not." You'll recall that I asked in
the previous sermon, and if you don't, just to refresh your memory,
I ask this question, how do we know that the work of the king
of Nineveh in his official capacity in promoting the true religion
and the work of the king and of the people in repenting and
evidencing their repentance was pleasing to the Lord? Well, the answer is clearly found
in Jonah 3.10 to that question. And God saw their works, that
they turned from their evil way, and God repented of the evil
that He had said He would do unto them. And did it not? Whereas the word of the Lord
to Jonah was that God would destroy Nineveh in 40 days, according
to Jonah 3.4. God repented or turned from His
wrath when Nineveh turned to the Lord in faith and repentance. But in what sense did God repent? Before considering in what sense
God repented, that is turned or changed in regard to the destruction
that Jonah had declared would fall upon Nineveh for her wickedness,
let's back up for a moment as we first consider in what sense
God cannot repent, that is, turn or change. That is, in what sense
it is impossible for God to repent. One of the essential attributes
of the nature of God is that He is immutable or unchangeable
in His being, wisdom, power, holiness, justice, goodness,
and truth. I am Jehovah, I change not, God
says in Malachi 3.6. The will of God, dear ones, being
one aspect of God's nature. Likewise, cannot change. For we read in Psalm 33, 11,
the counsel of the Lord standeth forever. From eternity to eternity,
it cannot change. The counsel of the Lord stands
forever. Therefore, whatever God has predestined,
whatever God has decreed to occur from before the foundation of
the world, which incidentally is all things according to Ephesians
1.11, cannot change. As for example,
once again going back to the first chapter of Ephesians, For
example, the elect whom he has chosen to save from before the
foundation of the world. That number cannot be altered
in the least. It cannot be changed, added to,
subtracted from. We read in Ephesians chapter
1, verses 4 and 5, the following. according as He hath chosen us
in Him before the foundation of the world, that we should
be holy and without blame before Him in love, having predestinated
us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according
to the good pleasure of His will. Thus, dear ones, whatever appears
to man in this world to be a change in what God revealed he would
do. For example, God through Jonas
said that he would destroy Nineveh in 40 days, but repented of the
judgment upon Nineveh when Nineveh believed and repented of her
sin. That so-called change or repenting
on the part of God in history was not actually a change in
God, in God's nature, or in His eternal plan. For it was decreed
to occur from before the foundation of the world that God would repent,
that Nineveh would be granted faith and repentance, and God
would repent with regard to the judgment that was threatened
against them. That was no change to God's eternal
plan. That was included within God's
eternal plan. Dear ones, there is no change
in God's nature or in God's eternal plan for God knows all things
and cannot make a mistake due to a lack of knowledge. And God
is all-wise and cannot make a mistake as to what will glorify His justice
and His grace the most in history. Mistakes and errors and second-guessing
cannot fall to God's account. Because all mistakes and errors
and second-guessing are precluded by God's omniscience, God's wisdom,
God's holiness, God's sovereignty, and God's immutability, unchangeableness. Thus, as to God's nature, As
to God's will, as to God's eternal plan, God cannot repent or change. We read in Numbers 23, 19, God
is not a man that he should lie, neither the son of man that he
should repent. We also read in 1 Samuel 15,
29, And also the strength of Israel
will not lie nor repent, for he is not a man that he should
repent. I love what the Westminster Larger
Catechism question 12 says in response to the question, what
are the decrees of God? The answer given is this, God's
decrees are the wise, free, and holy acts of the counsel of his
will, whereby from all eternity he hath for his own glory unchangeably
foreordained whatsoever comes to pass in time. especially concerning
angels and men. Here, dear ones, I submit to
you is one of the greatest comforts that we can embrace by faith
when we pass through the most trying difficulties that come
our way and even through the valley of the shadow of death.
Let me list three comforts. very quickly here, a first comfort. The suffering in our bodies,
the estrangement from family and friends, the financial crisis
that we face, the persecution we face for standing for Christ
and his truth, and even our sins and failures like those of Jonah
and Peter and all the others that I mentioned earlier. are
all appointed by God's most wise, most holy, and most loving plan
from all eternity to glorify his justice and grace and to
benefit you, his people. How it will benefit you, you
may not see presently. You may not even see before you
die. You may not even see once you're
in heaven, necessarily. But benefit you, you can be absolutely
assured his plan will be beneficial to you. In fact, you can be assured
because he's most wise and most loving. His plan for you and
all that you've gone through and all that you will go through
will benefit you the most. as his people. For we have it in his word in
Ecclesiastes 3.11, he hath made everything beautiful in his time. And in Romans 8.28, all things
work together for good to them that love God. to them who are
called according to his purpose. A second comfort that we derive from the unchangeableness,
the immutability of God's purposes, of his counsel, of his will,
of his eternal plan. A second comfort is this, God
makes no mistakes in what he sends your way. It may appear
to be a curse that has landed on your lot without cause, like
that of Job, but there is always, dear ones, there is always a
reason because God has ordained it from all eternity. There is
a reason. and a most wise, most holy, and
most good reason for what God sends your way, dear child of
God. That we must trust. And that we must hope in, dear
ones, in the character and in the immutability of God.
because that is who God is. Whether we ever come to understand
the reason for what has come into our life. A third comfort
that proceeds from God's nature, from God's eternal plan, from
God's immutability and unchangeableness, God can never ever do you whom
he has forgiven and justified in Christ. He can never do you
any wrong. Dear ones, God was not even willing
to spare his only begotten son from the curse of the cross. from the suffering upon the cross,
in order to have you who trust in Christ for his own adopted
children. He that spared not his own son,
but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also
freely give us all things?" Paul says in Romans 8.32. Dear ones, I exhort you, fall
upon the character of God and the unchanging character of God. When you, dear ones, are perplexed,
when you are confused, when you are anxious, When you are fearful,
when you are doubting, cast yourself upon the unchangeable character
of God. You see, dear ones, God's promises
are only true because of who God is. His promises are only
as good as God is. and only as unchangeable as God
is unchangeable. Therefore, dear ones, cling to
the unchangeable, immutable, everlasting God, whatever you're
going through. For He makes no mistakes and
He can do you no wrong. Now, dear ones, let us consider
in what sense our text reveals to us that God does repent and
that God repented of the evil that he had spoken concerning
Nineveh. Carefully note that the Ninevites
hoped in the mercy of God that he would indeed repent of his
threatened judgment in Jonah 3.9. This is the first mention
of God's repentance in Jonah 3, 9. Who can tell if God will
turn and repent and turn away from his fierce anger that we
perish not? Those are the words of the king
of Nineveh. So the first mention comes from
the mouth of the king and the king and the people hoping in
God's mercy that he would repent of the evil threatened against
them. And this was not a vain hope, for Jonah had no doubt
preached to the Ninevites of his own rebellion against God's
revealed will and how the Lord prepared a great fish to swallow
him. But how the Lord, in great mercy,
turned from his fatherly anger and mercifully delivered Jonah
from the belly of the well And when Nineveh did trust in the
Lord and did turn from their evil ways, the Holy Spirit declares
that the Lord repented of the threatened judgment upon Nineveh
in Jonah 3.10, which is the second mention of God repenting. And then finally, as Jonah is
rehearsing to God in prayer why he was angry with the Lord. Jonah states that the reason
he rebelled and fled on a ship to Tarshish in the very first
place was because he knew that the Lord was merciful and repented
of threatened evil or judgment upon nations and cities and individuals. In Jonah 4.2 where we read And
he prayed unto the Lord, and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was
not this my saying when I was yet in my country? Therefore
I fled before unto Tarshish, for I knew that thou art a gracious
God, and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest
thee of the evil. That's the third mention of God
repenting from our text today. Jonah knew that his preaching
judgment to the Ninevites might, under the merciful hand of the
Lord, actually lead to their salvation rather than to their
judgment. We'll look more closely in a
few moments at Jonah's anger and his sinful complaint that
he brought before the Lord. And so, dear ones, how is it
that God is said to repent in these three passages just read? Well, first, it does not mean
that God has changed in the least in his nature, his attributes,
his character, or in his eternal decree. For these cannot change
without God ceasing to be God. Rather, there is simply a change
in the way in which God treats man in accordance with his own
revealed will. Let me explain. God's character,
dear ones, is such that he hates unrepentant rebellion. But on the other hand, God's
character is such that he loves faith and repentance in turning
from rebellion. Thus, when individuals or nations
turn from unrepentant rebellion to faith and repentance, the
change that has occurred by God's grace in individuals or nations
calls for God to be consistent with his own moral character
and to bless those who trust him and to repent of the judgment
that was previously threatened against them. Now that doesn't mean that they
have earned or deserved anything because God in acting in this
way has given to them both the faith and the repentance. But
he is acting consistent with his moral attributes of mercy
and grace and love for he loves faith and repentance and he blesses
faith and repentance. So dear ones, the change was
not actually a change in God. He was simply being true to his
unchangeable moral character when he repented of the threatened
evil against Nineveh. The change was actually in man
who was changed by God's grace from a hater of God to a believer
in God. In fact, had God threatened judgment,
I submit to you, had God threatened judgment upon Nineveh for her
unbelief and ungodliness, and had He poured out His fierce
judgment upon Nineveh in response to her faith and repentance,
this would have surely shown to be changeable, a changeableness
in God's character, to be capricious, to be arbitrary rather than unchangeable
in his moral character. For in such an instance, his
moral character would have disapproved that which is evil, namely the
wickedness of Nineveh, but at the same time,
it would have disapproved of the faith and the repentance
of Nineveh, which is good. And so, dear ones, the fact that
God threatened judgment upon a wicked city is agreeable to
God's moral character of righteousness. And the fact that God repented
of the threatened judgment upon a believing and repentant city
is agreeable to God's moral character of goodness and kindness. There
was no change in God. The change was in man. God was simply being faithful
and true to his unchanging, immutable character. And this is precisely
what the Lord says through the prophet Jeremiah. in Jeremiah
18, verses 7-10, which you can look up at your leisure. Dear ones, the fact that God
repents of threatened judgment to those who trust Him, I submit
to you, is our confidence and assurance that God will repent
of the eternal judgment threatened against us. when we trust in
Christ alone as our imputed righteousness before the holy tribunal of God. If the Lord repented of the threatened
judgment upon Nineveh before Christ came, how much more shall
he repent of the threatened judgment upon you and me now that Christ
has come? has fulfilled all righteousness,
and has paid the debt owed to sin for all who will receive
and rest in him. Do you not see in God's repenting
of evil against Nineveh, his repenting of evil against you,
dear child of God? O glorious truth that is revealed
to us for our encouragement and comfort in the faith, God has
repented of all evil threatened upon you who receive and rest
in Christ alone as your righteousness. Now, dear ones, no evil from
God will ever, ever befall you. Whether in this life or in the
life to come, all difficulties and sufferings and trials and
tribulations that befall you in this life, dear Christian, are not evil, but are for your
good and for your sanctification and for your growth in Jesus
Christ. Rejoice and be glad, dear Christian,
for God has repented of all evil against you. He is a reconciled
God and we are his beloved children. The second and final main point
is this. The anger of Jonah at God for
bestowing his undeserved mercy upon the great city of Nineveh. In Jonah chapter four, verses
one through three. There we read, but it displeased
Jonah exceedingly, and he was very angry. And he prayed unto
the Lord and said, I pray thee, O Lord, was not this my saying
when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto
Tarshish, for I knew that thou art a gracious God and merciful,
slow to anger and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil.
Therefore now, O Lord, take I beseech thee my life from me, for it
is better for me to die than to live. What a notable transition we
see as we pass from the glories of God's mercy and repenting
of the evil that was threatened upon Nineveh and bringing salvation
to Nineveh in Jonah chapter 3 verse 10 and pass from those heights
to the deplorable depths of Jonah's anger directed at the God who
delights to show mercy to even the chief of sinners. Dear ones,
this is not the sin of one who hated and despised the God of
our salvation, or persecuted the people of God as did Saul
before being smitten from the horse by the Lord on the way
to persecute more Christians in Damascus. This is the sinful
infirmity of one of the great prophets and types of Christ
found in scripture. Let us briefly consider what
was the occasion that brought Jonah to this point of anger,
frustration, and despair, even to the point that he preferred
to die rather than to live. The answer to what brought Jonah
to this point of anger, frustration, and despair to continue living
is inferred from Jonah 4, verse 2, where it says, And he prayed
unto the LORD, and said, I pray thee, O LORD, was not this my
saying when I was yet in my country? Therefore I fled before unto
Tarshish, For I knew that thou art a gracious God, and merciful,
slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repentest thee of the evil." Jonah, I submit to you, had a
plan for Israel in his own mind, heart, and ministry. And it did not include the salvation
of the Gentile city of Nineveh. He had prophesied for some time
in Israel concerning her need to turn in faith to the God of
her salvation and to repent of her gross apostasy. His whole
heart and earnest desire was for the salvation of Israel,
God's covenant people. Note how he speaks of Israel
in a very personal way when he says, Was not this my saying
when I was in my country. In other words, if I might expand
what I believe Jonah is saying in his prayer to God at this
point, it would be something like this. O God, I was in my country ministering
to my kinsmen according to the flesh, thy covenant people Israel,
when I received thy call to go to the Gentile city of Nineveh. And O LORD, thou hast promised
by covenant to save Israel. Therein is the glory of God revealed
in the salvation of thy people Israel. Dear ones, I submit that Jonas
so closely tied the glory of God to his prophetic ministry
to Israel that he could only see Israel turning to the Lord
if the Lord destroyed Nineveh through his prophetic ministry,
thus demonstrating to Israel that they alone were God's people. It would appear that in Jonah's
mind the salvation of Nineveh would not bring Israel back to
the Lord, but rather drive Israel even farther from the Lord. Thus
Jonah prayed to the Lord about his apprehension in going to
Nineveh in the very first place. For Jonah knew the character
of God, that he was gracious and merciful, slow to anger,
of great kindness, and repented of threatened judgment where
there was faith and repentance in a people. Jonah knew that
if he went to preach to Nineveh, that God might actually grant
the Ninevites faith in the Lord and repentance from their wickedness,
which would likely so anger Israel that she would flee from the
Lord as Jonah himself had fled from the Lord. And I submit, not only does this
interpretation of the sinful cause of Jonah's anger, frustration,
and despair find a reasonable basis from our text in Jonah. But as we look to the New Testament,
I believe we find further confirmation of this interpretation as well.
For it was with great difficulty that the apostles themselves
preached to the Gentiles, you'll recall. Peter needed a vision
from God to convince him to go to Cornelius, a Gentile, in Acts
10. Even though the apostles likewise
had the same prophecies that foretold the salvation of all
nations in the Old Testament, and were even commanded by Christ
to disciple all the nations in Matthew 28, 19. In fact, in the city of Antioch,
a scandal, you recall, arose in the church that had the potential
to divide the Church of Christ into a Jewish church and a separate
Gentile church, when Peter and other Jewish Christians would
not eat with the Gentiles, thus indicating by their actions that
the Gentiles needed to add to their faith in Christ the dietary
laws of the Old Testament. if they were to be members in
good standing. Paul, you recall, publicly rebuked Peter, sounding
forth the doctrine of free justification by faith alone, apart from any
works of the law. In Galatians chapter 2, verse
16, where we read the following, Words of the Apostle Paul on
that occasion. Knowing that a man is not justified
by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ,
even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified
by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law. For
by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified. Dear ones, whatever reluctance
Jewish Christians might have had in taking the Gospel to Gentiles
and in receiving Gentiles into the Church of Christ, I submit
to you that the Apostle Paul made clear that God's plan, God's
plan was to bring salvation to the Gentiles in order to provoke
the Jews to jealousy according to Romans 11, 11. There we read in this section
dealing with this very controversy and this very issue the following. I say then, have they, that is
Israel, stumbled that they should fall? God forbid. But rather through their fall
salvation is come unto the Gentiles. For to provoke them, that is
to provoke Israel, to jealousy. You see, dear ones, God would
then, out of Israel's jealousy, bring all Israel to salvation. In Romans chapter 11, verse 26. Jonah therefore wrongly conceived
in his own mind that the salvation of Nineveh and the Gentile nations
would dim the glory of God and send Israel fleeing forever from
the God of her salvation. But God's eternal plan was to
provoke Israel to jealousy by the salvation of Nineveh as a
preview to the salvation of the nations, which would in turn
provoke Israel to jealousy with the end that all Israel shall
be saved. I wonder, dear ones, has such
a proud and conceited possessiveness, as was demonstrated by Jonah,
perverted your view of the grace and mercy of God that is in Christ
Jesus? Have you looked at others or
treated others as if they were undeserving of the kindness of
God which you yourself have received? Though you and I are every bit
as undeserving as the most heinous sinner on the face of the earth.
Spiritual pride, beloved, has no place in the lives of us who
call ourselves Christians. or who call ourselves covenanters,
who know how foolish we are by nature, who know how prone to
error we are by nature, who know how given to follow the lusts
of the flesh we are by nature. If we truly understand, dear
ones, our own natural depravity and corruption, and we truly
see with horror how often we offend our holy God by our daily
transgressions, then we of all people must be humbled before
God that He would use us to reach out to others with the gospel
of salvation and with the covenanted truths of the Reformation. If
we are to boast, let us boast in Christ and in his gospel that
is freely offered even to us who are the chief of sinners. But before I close, I would have
you also note, dear ones, how when Jonah's plan to glorify
God through the destruction of Nineveh did not work out as Jonah
planned, But God did, in fact, the opposite in saving Nineveh. Jonah became vexed, frustrated,
very angry, and despaired even of life. Jonah, indeed, dear ones, remembered
that God was gracious, merciful, and repented of threatened judgment
where there was faith and repentance. He says so in Jonah 4.2. He remembered that. But I submit
to you, Jonah had forgotten that God was most wise, most holy,
and had a right to do with his creatures as he thought would
glorify him most. And because Jonah lost sight
of God's wisdom and sovereign control, Jonah proudly conceived
he had a better plan than God. Because Jonah had placed his
hope in his own plan rather than trusting in God's most wise,
most holy, and most sovereign plan, he became angry at God
and even thought he would be better off dead than live with
this great disappointment. Now, lest we be too quick to
pour all our condemnation upon Jonah's anger, frustration, and
despair, let us understand that this was the struggle of a faithful
and true servant of the Lord. Though we cannot commend or approve
of Jonah's behavior here, we cannot be too hard on him without
being equally hard upon ourselves. For all the times that we have
done the same thing when our preconceived ideas as to how
God would be most glorified in various circumstances and situations
did not work out? How many times have we become
angry in the spirit of life because we thought God would be most
glorified in saving that loved one right now? In restoring that
backslidden brother or sister? right now, in healing me immediately, in providing wisdom about an
important decision right now, in providing for all my needs for which I have prayed right
now. But how often, dear ones, The
Lord does not choose to glorify himself as we had conceived or
according to our timetable and we become angry and frustrated
and restless and doubting and cast down like Jonah. There is one thing I pray you
will do that Jonah did do, and that is that you will not flee
from the Lord. He did the first time. He didn't
do that the second time. But rather flee to the Lord in
prayer. And certainly Jonah's prayer
is filled with much sinful infirmity. But he did flee to the Lord. Pour out, dear ones, your hearts
to the Lord, not in anger and frustration or despairing of
life as did Jonah, but rather pour out your heart to the Lord,
recalling His mercy, His grace, His kindness, but also recalling
His wisdom, which prevents him from making a single mistake
or error. His love that has ordained this
very thing that has come into your life for your good rather
than for evil, and his sovereignty wherein he has, dear ones, the
right to choose that plan that glorifies him the most. Dear ones, have you, like Jonah,
tied the glory of God to His working by this one plan alone
that you have conceived in your own mind. Have you put God into
your little box and in effect required that He work according
to your plan? The Sovereign Lord, who is most
wise, will not be so confined by what we think would bring
him the most glory. So much, dear ones, of our own
restlessness, anxiety, anger, and frustration is due to the
fact that God has chosen to glorify himself by a plan that we did
not conceive and do not like. But that is his sovereign right. In pouring out, dear ones, our
hearts to the Lord, God helps us to fall. God helps us to fall
upon the mercy, the wisdom, the love, and the sovereignty of
God who makes no mistakes and can do us, his beloved children,
no wrong. Let's stand in prayer. Our Heavenly Father, the Holy
Spirit has again been our teacher. We thank Thee for opening, Lord,
our minds to Thy truth, for showing to us our sins, our frailties,
Showing to us, Lord, our anger and our frustration, our restlessness. Showing to us, Lord, even our
despair and not wanting to continue to live if things cannot be as
we want them to be. We pray, Father, that Thou would
have mercy upon us and forgive us. We thank Thee that Thou hast
once and for all repented of all the evil that was threatened
against us, and that, Lord, we are forgiven and justified once
and for all, and we are once and for all the adopted children
of God, the heirs of God and joint heirs with Jesus Christ.
Lord, help us to live accordingly. Help us, O Lord, to grow in the
grace and knowledge of Christ. We ask these things in Jesus'
name. Amen. For much more information on
