Paradox #1
Micah 5:14 talks about God destroying certain things associated with false worship. A potential doctrinal conflict could arise if this is seen as contradicting the idea of free will, where people are allowed to choose their beliefs and actions. However, this verse emphasizes divine intervention against idolatry rather than forcing belief. While some might see a tension between divine justice and human freedom, it's generally understood within the context of God acting to preserve the purity of worship according to the covenant with Israel. Overall, this doesn't widely create a doctrinal inconsistency within the broader biblical narrative. If you need more specific interpretations or theological perspectives, consulting a biblical commentary might help.
