i’d love to hear your thoughts on it as jeff and i are kicking around the idea for a series in april.
Paradox?
I have this friend who used to wonder, “can God microwave a burrito that is so hot that he could not eat it?” i know it’s a silly musing, but it makes me think about other, bigger faith questions. in one of my seminary classes we learned that many aspects of the christian faith are paradoxes. i started thinking about the ones i could name:
-jesus is fully god and fully man
-the first will be last
-the beatitudes (matthew 5:3-12) which boil down to “lucky are the unlucky”
-god is both just and merciful
-the bible says sin’s power is destroyed, but i still struggle with it in this life
