Alan  Noble

“If we insist that our society be fixed through a specific political or social agenda, we may grow bitter when God righteously chooses to bring redemption in a way we could never have imagined. Jonah could not save Nineveh. He couldn’t even love it. Neither could Jonah bring about God’s judgment upon Nineveh. What he could do in response to the wickedness of Nineveh, and what we must do in response to the inhuman conditions of our society, is represent God in the city.”
