Christianity is a paradox and so are all of its major tenets, such as defeating death by death and saving one's life by losing it. Jesus explains that marriage does not belong in the Resurrection because there is no death in eternal life (Luke 20). Job knew the truth of the resurrection by explaining, my redeemer lives (Job 19). St. Paul explains how we too can participate in God's tradition of good works through faith, participating in the life of Christ (2 Thessalonians).
