He word use to sound so absurd. Like a man being called out to walk on water. The sea raging and foaming and that man(Peter) begins to sink, crying out to Christ. But the more I read the less absurd God sounds and the more absurd man sounds.
Nice, i like it, so keep your heart and mind open to the 'absurdity' of the Gospel,
the 'absurdity' of the baptism of the Holy Spirit = "these men are not drunk as you suppose"
the 'absurdity' of the Lamb with 7 Eyes
the 'absurdity' of the resurrection of the dead
PEACE in HIS Abundant absudity of the foolishness of CHRIST = 1 Corinthians ch1
For the message of the cross is foolishness/absurdity to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19For it is written:
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;
the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate.”
b 20Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world?
21For 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.
22Jews demand signs and Greeks search for wisdom,
23but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
c 24but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.
25For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom,
d and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.
