Five Business Paradoxes – Part II

Jim had an exciting new business idea, but his start-up required a significant sum of money. An acquaintance of Jim’s offered to invest the needed cash and become Jim’s equal partner.

Although Jim’s wife cautioned her husband against being “unequally yoked” with this man, Jim charged ahead anyway.

A year later, Jim’s partner forced him out of the business due to his disdain for Jim’s religious beliefs.

In 2 Chronicles 20, Jehoshaphat partnered with a wicked king to build ships. The Lord destroyed the ships and sent a prophet to tell Jehoshaphat, “Because you have allied yourself with Ahaziah, the Lord has destroyed your works.”
