Contradiction with Proverbs 8:17
Proverbs 8:17 suggests that God loves those who love Him and those who seek Him early will find Him, implying that a reciprocal relationship is necessary, rather than the unconditional promise of finding God if one seeks with all heart as in Jeremiah 29:13.
Proverbs 8:17: I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
Contradiction with Isaiah 55:6
Isaiah 55:6 implies there is a specific time frame ("while He may be found") in which God can be sought, indicating that seeking God may not always lead to finding Him, contrary to the absolute assurance in Jeremiah 29:13.
Isaiah 55:6: Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Contradiction with Romans 3:11
Romans 3:11 states that there is none that understandeth, none that seeketh after God, challenging the premise in Jeremiah 29:13 that people will actively seek God with all their heart.
Romans 3:11: There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
Paradox #1
Jeremiah 29:13 talks about seeking with all your heart. Some might see a contradiction with the idea that not everyone finds God, even if they try hard, which raises questions about free will and divine fairness. However, these interpretations often depend on personal beliefs and context.
