21st Century Jonah Before The Big Fish Swallowed Him

We live in a day and age where we could only imagine what might have been if the prophets and apostles of old had at their disposal the technology we are privileged to have today.

There's a strong belief they might have done much better with them considering what they did with the little they had.

Imagine a Jonah, despite being initially reluctant and consequently swallowed up by a big fish, being later used by God to warn and bring a whole nation to repentance and on her knees before God, and all that without the aid of modern day technology, I wonder what would have happened if the same Jonah had such at his disposal.

How about the other prophets and apostles that God used mightily to shake and bring the whole world to a standstill, so they'd know that He is the Lord of all the earth, and there's none like unto Him?

Not to even talk of the Master and Lord of them all, Jesus, who thousands upon thousands of people would follow into the wilderness and be there with Him listening to His Words for 3 whole days without even realising it.

Then all the miracles Jesus did, walking on stormy waters, calling Lazarus out of the tomb after four days among other mighty works He did, even without the technology and social media to leverage upon and to cover all those things He did, Jesus still stands undisputedly as the world greatest and most influential human being ever, how much more if Jesus had today's technology and social media at His disposal?


The world surely wouldn't have had an answer to that.

God bless.

The good thing is that Jesus doesn't have to be here Himself though for the world to experience what it would have been like if He were here Himself to utilize today's technology and social media, because before He left, He produced and left replicas of Himself here on earth, and even commissioned them to produce more replicas of Himself using the same Words He used to produce them. Matthew 28:19-20

He also said that they shall be able to do the works He did and even greater works because He was leaving. John 14:12

So what happened to the replicas of Jesus aka sons of God He left on earth to continue from where He stopped that they're now hardly visible?

It appears they fell asleep after a while just as Jesus stated in Matthew 13:25.

That probably happened in this age of technological advancements and social media, where there's so much distractions in the world than there has ever been, so they perhaps lost focus and got distracted by the cares and things of this world which led them to fall asleep.

But this is not a time to sleep or slumber but to arise and shine, because the whole world is crying out for the manifestations of the sons of God especially in these last days. Romans 8:19

The church of this generation have a huge opportunity with all the technology and social media at their disposal to showcase to the world what it would have been like had Jesus, the apostles or prophets of old been here.

We can't afford to let this opportunity pass us by.

God bless.

All I'm seeing is "I'm chosen who are you"?

Nonsense!

Jonah and Jesus are God's chosen!

There is a difference between not spreading the gospel and not preaching the gospel to a particular set of people

Money is not wisdom. Someone can be rich and stupid and someone else can be poor and filled with wisdom
We are not debating money and wisdom here. We are debating salvation which the rich also saw and embraced. Don't be a foól like OKCornel.

What we are saying is God is found everywhere. But you wey you poor dey challenge people wey get sense pass you and richer than you.
Do you know how annoying it is for a poorman like you to be arguing with a wiser & richer person than you? No gain inside ya agidi talaka!

Nonsense stories like this show that either the events didn't happen on Earth; they probably happened in another world of superhuman aliens, or they are myths. There's no mysterious story or miracle that has been repeated in our time. I do not believe that Jesus ever existed as a human being; that was actually the big issue that first split the church.
