# Plumer on the Christian Paradox

“The Christian is a paradox. He is poor, yet makes many rich; he has nothing, yet possesseth all things. — 2 Cor. vi. 10. Because he has Christ, he has the unsearchable riches of Christ.” — [**William S. Plumer**](/authors/william-swan-plumer), *The Christian* (1878), p. 117
