I've always been a content creator - posting my first video when i was around 11 years old. I started doing KZbin and gradually tranistioned into short-form videos by 2019. It wasn't until 2020 that a lifehack video went viral on tiktok and launched my online career. After getting 16 million views; I was dubbed as a lifehack tiktoker. Today, I've given my life to the Lord & am interested in different things.. So dear viewer, I have taken it upon myself to make Christianity interesting again! On this channel, let's immerse ourselves in this mysterious biblical world which has captivated the whole world for literally thousands of years. Ladies and gentlemen, this is greatest story every told.

The whale most certainly doesn’t sound too far fetched. When I read The book of Jonah when I read big fish I instantly thought of a whale. Also, keep in mind that there is nothing too great for God. This is the same God who parted the red sea and brought His people to freedom. I don’t think about how Jonah survives the 3 days in the belly of the big fish because I know the Lord makes a way out of no way. I used to do spiritual fasts for 3 days with and without water sometimes. In that amount of time I would imagine that the Lord is preparing Jonah while he’s in the belly of the big fish so that he’s no longer afraid to witness the gospel to Ninevah. There may be tests the Lord puts you through so that you become more faithful and stronger spiritually and often times He will take you out of your comfort zone so you can be great through Him. That’s the kind of God I serve. Thank you for sharing this video and God bless.

Top tier documentary. Looking professional. I liked how you didn't look at the camera

[@gravityfallscanada]

The resurrection of the saints in the gospel of Nicodemus really makes you understand this! I can't stop thinking about it ever since I read it! Jonah died in the belly of the sea creature, was preserved for 3 days and 3 nights, and brought back to life at Ninevah all while his body was preserved from being digested. The son of the most high YAHUSHA (Jesus for the pagans) died on the tree, spent 3 days and 3 nights in Sheol (the land of the dead), and came back to life with the resurrected saints of the past that were trapped in Sheol. All while his body didn't see corruption (decay in the tomb).

[@sissyrayself7508]

Exactly. Good catch.

[@user-hj4uo7py5m]

Yup I put the same comment but your spot on 🎉

[@directortats5468]

The people of NIneveh knew a god called Dagon (was half man half fish) so Jonah being vomitted by a fish may have made them think it's their god yet he represented the Living GOD.

[@ModernMessiah]

You're saying they saw him get spit out. Makes sense

[@theosaka69]

Very Interesting

[@Secret-jg1bk]

There's another thought that the giant fish could've been extinct or prehistoric. Oddly, enough there's actually some prehistoric and extinct fishes that do look like the ones in the paintings and could actually be able to swallow a human whole. Such as: dunkleosteus, titanichthys, or leedsichthys problematicus

[@ModernMessiah]

Problematicus 😆 I bet it was

😂 problematicus is the fist 😅

I think Jonah’s experience was a very strong point for him to convince the crowd which resonated with him causing them to repent without wasting time.

The lesson was for Jonah. Jonal initially relished in prophesying some calamity to befall a person or people and it akways came true. Nineveh was wicked in their ways and Jonah knew this. However, when Yahweh sent him to deliver the message, Jonah ran because he knew that Yahweh was not going to destroy it. Jonah lacked compassion and mercy for anyone who sinned. He was becoming very arrogant and proud. People feared Jonah whenever he emerged from his tent because they knew he was about to tell someone bad news. When he finally did deliver the message, Jonah begrudgingly waited for it to happen, because Yahweh said so and he did not want to look foolish. So Jonah waited, all hot under the collar and then Yahweh started to "toy" with him by sending a worm to eat the leaves and take away his shade. This is the last we hear of Jonah. Jonah did not learn forgiveness. Nineveh will ultimately be destroyed but not on Jonah's time/countdown. No one can "run" from Yahweh and His righteous judgment.

[@theosaka69]

Mannn oh mann! This is a whole Entire WORD❣️🙏🏾📯🎊

[@JesusStuffMinistries]

I once heard in a sermon in college that Jonah most likely smelled like digestive juices of a fish and as the people of Nineveh tried to run up to grab him, the smell of fish digestive juices was too repulsive. Also in that story is the lesson to use your own story (testimony) about Christ! The last thing was that there was probably an eclipse at the same time too. You’re my favorite new KZbin channel I’ve come across. Keep it up bro! 👍🏾

[@meaghanabramson2339]

You tell the stories so well and really make them interesting and for some people who didn't understand I'm quite sure that they can now😊 5:30

[@melindy325]

So the answer to the question is: Jonah didn’t want to go to Nineveh because he hated the Ninevites so much that he did not want God to forgive them.

[@carlissapowell7069]

I feel like Jonah was scared because of what he knows about them. I don’t think he felt they were unworthy to come to repentance. Otherwise, why would he run?

[@theosaka69]

@@carlissapowell7069I think it was both. He was scared of them because they were needlessly & wantonly pagan in their practices AND he hated them and didn’t want TMH to forgive them or show them mercy.

Jonah didn’t want them to repent because of the terrible acts that they did to his people

exactly it wasnt because they were sinners that jonah didnt want to go, either yomikez is deliberately misleading the stories he tell or he really does not know them

[@sacronus1]

Thank you for this video. I really enjoyed it.

[@JPLMONEY23]

A toothless megalodon shark, a giant goldfish or maybe a loch ness monster.....perhaps it's more likely a blue or sperm whale but whatever that swallowed Jonah is a testament of God will go through a great extent to get His will to be done.....and it's to show how great His mercy is towards a great city of Nineveh (current day Mosul, Iraq) founded by Nimrod.

[@sammiller200]

That was good

Anyone reading this comment please only preach the gospel to people who are receptive to it (maybe even lukewarm people too). Do not cast your pearls to swine, because everyone simply CANNOT BE SAVED!!!😊

[@JesusIsAlive100]

It’s still important to witness to people who don’t want to hear it at times. It depends on the situation and we need to be led by God

[@melindy325]

Jesus paid to high a price for our salvation for any of us to decide who to witness to.

I’m with u. And it answered a lot of other questions about his time under water like how did he breathe? If the book of Ezekiel talks about spaceship, then the type of machinery that behaves like a fish is a submarine

[@arcticrebel581]

I never knew sperm whales were in that area of the world but somehow I always assumed it was what swallowed Jonah

[@yerimwoo4108]

I remember in the Bible that Jonah when the people in Ninavah repented. (This is when he obeyed at the end and spat out of the big fish ) that he said something like he didn’t want to come because he know that God was a merciful God and would forgive the sins of Ninavah

[@sswans9664]

Awesomely made video.❤ The only thing is, whales aren't considered fish... Just a thought if the Bible meant a fish specifically 🤔

[@megbuchanan1630]

Well, he was in salt water which is no doubt in the stomach of the whale and just kind of marinating in it, with digestive juices trying to do their job... He did say he felt his soul going to sheol and then he was spit out, porbably with the rocky vomit as well leaving cuts. So when he got to Ninivah, he was saltwater white and pale as a dead guy with possible missing flesh due to digestion and maybe a pocket full of rocky vomit. So yeah, thats pretty convincing to a crowd of fish worshipers.

[@edosovbaoghenetega7887]

But what if he said they should throw him overboard not because he was still looking for an escape but because he didn’t want the rest of the sailors to die because of his disobedience.

[@JoanneMercader]

When we were being taught this in Sunday school, our teacher said a whale swallowed him. Little children understand the truth

The fish was not suppose to swollen to belly but rather kept in the mouth to keep Jonah alive

Hello there @yomikez where I can find neither buy the book of Enoch?

[@Fredrik-de2p]

Incredible! I didn’t finish the video but Nineveh was a wicked city in biblical times but before isis invaded the Nineveh plains they were 40% Assyrian. All assyrians are Christians. I didn’t find how much people are Christian’s but there are other non Assyrian Christians so probably they were at a slight majority before the 2010s. So the Nineveh plains where the city of Nineveh was where historically before the 18th and 19th century vastly majorly Christian!

[@charlessaracanlao5012]

Where u from sir

[@Zackrey507mx]

Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the belly of the fish, 2 saying, “I called out to the Lord, out of my distress, and he answered me; out of the belly of Sheol I cried, and you heard my voice. I believed he died and god brought him back to life, just my take, but Sheol is the resting place of the dead. Unless he was saying his time in the belly is awful unto like Sheol is awful. But also I think he drowned, a whale ate him, shipped him like dead mail to the shore of Nineveh (express three day shipping), and god woke him up like, you ain’t gettin out of this 💁🏼‍♂️

[@contiq9]

Question... Why try to use science to explain and prove something that you are supposed to just have faith to believe happened? To do what you're doing just makes you have to answer more questions like, how does he survive without water for 3 days? How does he survive a digestive system for 3 days? How did he survive without oxygen for 3 days? How did he survive the toxic environment of death and acids for 3 days? Etc. Your answers are gonna come down to faith that God made those things possible. So, you use hypothetical science to prove an unrealistic situation that you're eventually going to fall back to faith anyway. And, something so AWESOME as someone being somewhat digested by this big fish would've been mentioned in the Bible.
