Man Is Swallowed by Whale, Bible Story of Jonah is True

Every true Christian already believes the story of Jonah which is such a teeny thing for God Almighty compared to creating the earth and heavens above.

Real believers know that nothing is impossible with the Almighty God we serve.

Luke 1:37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.

2 Corinthians 5:7  For we walk by faith, not by sight:

Michael Packard, a 56-year-old commercial lobster diver, was swallowed by a humpback whale off Cape Cod, Mass. and lived to tell about it.

Packard’s job is to pluck lobsters off the ocean floor. Packard estimates he was 45 feet below the surface when the whale swallowed him.

“All of a sudden, I just felt this huge bump, and everything went dark,” And I could sense that I was moving. And I was like did I just get bit by a shark? And then I felt around, and I realized there was no teeth. And I felt really no great pain. And then I realized  I’m in a whale’s mouth, and he’s trying to swallow me.

And I thought to myself, Okay, this is it.  I’m going to die.” he told CBS Boston. “I was completely inside,” Packard said. Loaded with heavy scuba gear and still able to breathe, Package tried fighting the whale, which began “throwing his head side to side.” Packard said he eventually “saw light.”

“All of a sudden, he went up to the surface, and just erupted and started shaking his head, and I just got thrown in the air and landed in the water,” Packard said. “And I just floated. And I was just, I couldn’t believe it. I couldn’t believe I got out of that. I’m here to tell it. I thought my legs were broken, but I’m only all bruised up. I made it.”

“It was happening so fast. My only thought was, how to get out of that mouth? And I realized there was no overcoming a beast of that size. He was going to do with me what he wanted to do. It was either he spits me out, or he swallowed me.  I was actually in his mouth for probably a good 30 seconds. But I still had my regulator on my mouth. I was still breathing.”

This is a living testimony to all those skeptics and atheists who say no one still believes Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

You can read the story of Jonah: Jonah chapters 1 and 2.

Jeremiah 32:17 Ah Lord GOD! behold, thou hast made the heaven and the earth by thy great power and stretched out arm, and there is nothing too hard for thee:

Jeremiah 32:27 Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh: is there any thing too hard for me?

I read where the former president of a Baptist university who now is a so-called Pastor said that no one still believes Jonah was swallowed by a whale.

I have a couple of scriptures for him:

Proverbs 3:5 Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
