Sermon: Rev. Mark Stein
Scripture: Jonah 2:8-9
Jonah
Jonah represents our prophetic state of mind which, if used without divine love, binds us to the belief that our errors cannot be redeemed or forgiven. This can lead us to judge, rather than to serve.
(adapted from Metaphysical Bible Dictionary, Fillmore Study Bible)
We overcome this mindset when we honor our personal responsibility and recognize, as our Principle of Forgiveness states, that every soul has the opportunity to make amends for transgressions on the eternal path of unfoldment.
