Quote:2. Do you believe jonah really was able to live in a fish and survive?
Who said he was alive those three days, it is a Christ example of being in the grave for three days.
Since he was supposed to be praying inside the whale, I'd say the Bible does.
Quote:And the Lord appointed a great fish to swallow Jonah, and Jonah was in the stomach of the fish three days and three nights. Then Jonah prayed to the Lord his God from the stomach of the fish, 2 and he said, . .. .Jonah 1-2 (mostly 2)
“I called out of my distress to the Lord,
And He answered me.
I cried for help from the [b]depth of Sheol;
You heard my voice. . . . But I will sacrifice to You
With the voice of thanksgiving.
That which I have vowed I will pay.
Salvation is from the Lord.”
10 Then the Lord commanded the fish, and it vomited Jonah up onto the dry land.
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
