Hebrews 6-- An Anchor for the Soul


Scripture: Hebrews 6

Life is full of strange tensions. Every person is full of morally "good" and "bad" impulses, regardless of which moral system we consider. Concepts such as infinity and perfectly circular objects are easily conceived by the human mind, but do not exist in nature. Light (and maybe even matter?) behaves as both particle and wave.

Christianity is no different: Jesus is fully God and fully man. The Bible was written by God and written by people. God is in sovereign control of all things, and humans make actual, meaningful decisions. You can call it paradox, antinomy, or tension, but in life and religion we learn to live with immense complexity.
