September 23, 2019 “Pushing Past the Paradox” series - “Humble Greatness” (Hebrews 13:1-8)
Paradox: "a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well-founded or true." What do we do when we come across a paradox in Scripture? Avoid it? Discard it? What if instead, we chose to study it?

Paradox: "a seemingly absurd or self-contradictory statement or proposition that when investigated or explained may prove to be well-founded or true." What do we do when we come across a paradox in Scripture? Avoid it? Discard it? What if instead, we chose to study it? When we study it, we allow the Holy Spirit to enlighten us with a deeper understanding of any supposed contradictions. In this message, we wrestle with two truths: 1) Christianity - Christ - is for all people. It is truly all-inclusive. Nevertheless, not everyone will end up in heaven. The words of Jesus clarify the paradox for us.
