    i’d love to hear your thoughts on it as jeff and i are kicking around the idea for a series in april.

    Paradox?

    in

    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
