Paradoxes in the Bible

As I grow into Christian maturity by reading the Bible, I have realized that there are certain truths that go against each other. Until you experience them, they look non-sense but when you found it's profound meaning, you will be amazed on how God works that way. Certain truths that go against each others are called "paradoxes". According to Wikipedia encyclopedia, paradox means,

"A paradox is an apparently true statement or group of statements that leads to a contradiction or a situation which defies intuition. Typically, either the statements in question do not really imply the contradiction, the puzzling result is not really a contradiction, or the premises themselves are not all really true or cannot all be true together. The word paradox is often used interchangeably with contradiction.

The Bible contains lots and lots of paradoxical truths from Genesis to Revelation but I have listed below some of my favorites and held much value in my life today.

1) Jesus is 100% human, yet 100% divine.

2) One who tries to save his life will lose it, one who gives his life will find it. (Goosebumps now growing in me)

3) The first will be last and the last will be first.

4) Faith is useless without Action.

5) To live is Christ and to die is gain.

6) For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. (1 Cor 1:21)

7) In my Father's kingdom... the wisest is the fool.

8) The lowly will be lifted up, the proud humbled.

And lastly my favorite, "God who rules the universe with his great might and power is also the same God who lives inside my heart, speaking in a still small voice."
