JESUS IS GOD PARADOXES Concerning Christ. The very life of and ministry of Jesus Christ was itself a divine paradox. 1. He hungered, yet fed multitudes 2. He thirsted, yet is the Water of life. 3. He grew weary, yet is our rest. 4. He paid tribute, yet is the King of kings. 5. He prayed, yet hears our prayers. 6. He wept, yet dries our tears. 7. He was sold for 30 pieces of silver, yet redeems the world. 8. He was led as a sheep to the slaughter, and yet is the Good Shepherd. 9. He was put to death, yet raises the dead.
