The gospel is ludicrous.

author

Dictionary definition of "ludicrous."


causing laughter because of absurdity; provoking or deserving derision; ridiculous; laughable:


Someone tortures and kills my whole family, except my son. I choose to forgive this person. However, in order to forgive him, I torture and kill my son. And this is somehow justice!


The gospel is something like this.


No wonder people ridicule the gospel, when they understand it somewhat.


But here is the trouble. The gospel happens to be true! Whether people understand it, agree with it or like it.


Would a worm understand Einstein?


Isaiah 55:8-9 KJV

[8] For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. [9] For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.


1 Corinthians 1:25 KJV

[25] Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
