YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC
The Missionary Teaching OF the Book
of Jonah.
That the book of Jonah is hlstori-
cal we believe for the following rea-
sons: First, its record and use in
the Scriptures That the writer's Of
the Bible intended the impression OF
its historicity is without the shadow
of doubt. The suggestion that it Is
parable Is absolutely gratuitous.
Second, the unbroken testimony of
tradition among the Jews is that it is
historic. Third, the testimony of Jesus
Christ Matt. IL :39-41). The words of
Jesus Christ are final.
l. Jonah's Second Commission

When called the first time to go to
Nineveh, he found the task too great
