Contradictions in the Bible—Why Are They There?

The Bible has many seeming contradictions within its pages. For
example, the four Gospels give four differing accounts as to what was
written on the sign that hung on the cross. Matthew said, “This is
Jesus the King of the Jews” (27:37). However, Mark contradicts that
with “The King of the Jews” (15:26). Luke says something different:
“This is the King of the Jews” (23:38), and John maintains that the
sign said “Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews” (19:19).

Those who are looking for contradictions may therefore say, “See—the
Bible is full of mistakes!” and choose to reject it entirely as being
untrustworthy. However, those who trust God have no problem
harmonizing the Gospels. There is no contradiction if the sign simply
said, “This is Jesus of Nazareth the King of the Jews.”

The godly base their confidence on two truths: 1) “all Scripture is
given by inspiration of God” (2 Timothy 3:16); and 2) an elementary
rule of Scripture is that God has deliberately included seeming
contradictions in His Word to “snare” the proud. He has “hidden”
things from the “wise and prudent” and “revealed them to babes” (Luke
10:21), purposely choosing foolish things to confound the wise (1
Corinthians 1:27).

Always remember: Christ loves you, and so do I! Each and every one of you!

No problem if they do that for themselves. It's when they insist that
everyone else do it that we have a problem.

NB: 2 Timothy 3:16 was written BY A MAN. So were the rest of the
books. Just saying "God inspired this" doesn't make it true.

LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought he was omniscient. If so, he already knows who's proud and
who's not, so there would be no need to play this game with people's
souls. Is this Supreme Being of yours REALLY that fucking bored? If
so, let him know I'm STILL waiting for him to answer my prayer that I
should win the lottery. He needs to quit playing these games and show
me da money!

Anyway, playing with people's souls like this sounds rather more
Satanic than heavenly, dontcha think?

Why is this creator so CHILDISH? This universe is VAST! He needs to

Fine. Harmonize the wildly contradictory accounts of Easter morning.
Pay particular attention to who went to the tomb, when they went
there, whether the stone was already rolled back, or whether it rolled
back in their presence, who they saw there, and what was said between
them.

I won't hold my breath waiting.

We don't insist that you accept the Holy Bible's plain truth. We
simply warn you of the dreadful consequences of rejecting it. Why not
just ask God to help you understand His revelations? I did - and it
made me a much better person. God gave me the gift of healing as a
result. Just last night a man came into our church with a bad back.
I prayed and the Power of God flowed straight thru me and restored
lost cartilage miraculously. Cripples regularly throw their crutches

even cure unnatural homo sexual lust thru prayer and the laying on of
hands in the right places. And you can get your juvenile mind locked

Saying so doesn't - but the fact that God actually did inspire the
Holy Bible does. Just look at all the fulfilled prophecy's in it.
When True Believers like me read from the Word, we get a special warm
glow all over that's a sure sign God is a moving us toward an
understanding of His Truth. If'n you read the Bible prayerfully, you
can feel this warmth too - although first you'll have to give up the
homo sexuality AND the drinking. God actually saves some atheists
even if'n they remain all skeptical. That's on accounta they ain't
usually hypocrites that some false Christians are. God wants people
to be hot or cold - but never luke warm.

God doesn't appreciate your mockery! Do you want to wind up in an

But He giveth us fredom of choice so's we can decide whether to obey
His Word or not. Those that obeys gets rewarded. Those that don't
get punished. God also tests His Faithful Servants like old Job and
me with occasional trials and tribulations to keep us extra faithful.
If we pass God's tests He gives us even bigger rewards - including
sprawling mansions in heaven. When He abandons the wicked, He gives
them good things too - like nice cars, flashy clothes, jewels and
political office - but then the agony's of eternal hell fire hurt them
all that much more. God is omniscient - but He doesn't predetermine
every little detail of our lives. What would be the purpose in that?

It's not really a game. He just wants only the most faithful and
obedient in His Holy Kingdom. The stiff necked and the lust crazed
must burn.

Which is emotional and physical blackmail. Only a Satanic god would have to
blackmail people into believing in him, therefore you worship Satan. Case
closed!

...because it is a collection of myths, from various times and places,
cobbled together, collated, and edited, over and over again, over hundreds
of years, by different editors with differing agendas? Because the parts
about Jesus were manufactured to provide a "back story" for a character
that was never real?

I see. It's a good thing you have faith. Must save you a lot of $$$
on doctor bills and prescriptions and the like.

Anyway, let's take the example of Joseph's father.

In Matthew, it says that Jacob (A) was the father of Joseph.

Oh! But in Luke it says that Heli (non-A) was the father of Joseph.

So you're believing that A = non-A. Which makes me wonder if you've
ever successfully completed a course in basic arithmetic.

Now, it COULD be true that Joseph had two daddies. Jacob and Heli
might have been Lovers, raising Joseph. This would make sense because
Joseph was clearly a liberal -- he helped out an unmarried pregnant
slut named Mary by marrying her so she wouldn't be killed for her
whoredom!

Otherwise, though, one of the statements must be false. And if one of
the statements is false, that means that your Bible is not inerrant.

> To True Believers like me they're just tests of our confidence

> sexuals like you

He loves the Homos. That's why he named humans "homo sapiens".

He had only one Son -- Jesus -- who turned out to be Gay (VERY gay as
we find out: he loved man-sweat, wore dresses and hung out with a pre-
op tranny named "Mary") and God loved Jesus anyway and Jesus is in
Heaven, still Gay and Unmarried and having Holy Dalliances with the
Angels.

There doesn't appear to be a whole lot of truth in that book, to be
honest with you, but there is some! I mean, we all know that the sun
revolves around the earth (which is immovable, about 6,000 years old,
has four corners and stands on pillars)

Nobody else seems to concur with the position that you are a better
person. And if you are, it would cause endless nightmares trying to
picture how you were before you "understood" "His" "revelations".

Error-Filled".

"Inspire" is a strange word, isn't it?

He either wrote it or he didn't. If he sent his message through
fallible man, then it's His own fault that the Bible is as fucked up
as it is.

> Just look at all the fulfilled prophecy's in it.

You mean like THIS one?:

Isaiah 19:5-7
And the waters of the Nile will be dried up, and the river will be
parched and dry; and its canal will become foul, and the branches of
Egypt's Nile will diminish and dry up, reeds and rushes will rot away.
There will be bare places by the Nile, on the brink of the Nile, and
all that is sown by the Nile will dry up, be driven away, and be no
more.

And THIS one?:

Isaiah 17:1-2
An oracle concerning Damascus. See, Damascus will cease to be a city,
and will become a heap of ruins. Her towns will be deserted forever

And how 'bout THIS one?:
Ezekiel 26:7-14
For thus says the Lord: "Behold I will bring upon Tyre from the north
Nebuchadnezzar of Babylon, king of kings, with horses and chariots,
and with horsemen and a hosts of many soldiers. He will slay with the
sword your daughters on the mainland; he will set up a seige wall
against you. He will direct the shock of his battering rams against
your walls, and with his axes he will break down your towers...With
the hoofs os his horses he will trample all your streets; he will slay
your people with the sword and your mighty pillar will fall to the
ground...they will break down your walls and destroy your pleasant
houses... I will make you a bare rock...you shall never be rebuilt,
for I have spoken," says the Lord God.

Nobody's ever called me "lukewarm". I'm Scotty the Hotty, and I'm

I'm going straight to Heaven, as you indicate above. Gonna hang with
my bro', Gay Jesus. I'll probably put him on my "lap" after I have
him brush his teeth and give him a good scrubbing down.

He's not very good at time management, then. Big waste of time if one
is omniscient and already knows the outcome. It's rather like knowing
in advance that you've won a backgammon game, but playing the game
anyway, when you could have started a new one.

I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that deals can be struck with the
Devil, so it might not be all that bad Downtown. That's where all the
fun people are going, ya know.

Doesn't he already know who is faithful and obedient? Or is he not
omniscient?

They seem like contradictions to anyone with some sense of logic who has not drank deeply of fundamentalist Kool-Aid, as
toxic to intellectual freedom as Jonestown Kool-Aid was to human lives.

I cannot imagine that you would be rewarded for ignorance, but I could be mistaken. Your God including contraditions as a
"test" suggests that there are errors intentionally included in the text, making fallible the word of your rather
disturbed god-figure.

Sinshine/Lurlean lies here. If some accounts in the text are mutually contradictory then it is hardly "plain truth"
whether or not it is a test from this rather borderline deity who possesses limitless love unless you disobey him, in
which case he has plans for you that would do the Marquis de Sade proud.

Most likely , or worse, the Judeo-Christian deity is evil as well as good. He certainly would appear to be if you accept
his book.

You couldn't heal Thurgood of his necrophilia fetish played out upon comatose women.
Which of his nubile followers do you suppose it will be who rolls your critically ill out of Thurgood's bed so that they
can frolic as you gasp for life, as you did to your predecessor, not known as Lilith van Bohlen, Lesbian activist?

My husband HEALS comatose women - sometimes but not always by a making

coma I fell into the first time I experimented with fiery serpents
during our church's snake handling rituals.

My husband's first wife died of cancer of the privates YEARS before I

I'm sure glad the crazy old biddy finally admitted this person - me?
Mother Sunshine? Katybelle Tucker? - is NOT known as Lilith van
Bohlen, Luciferian activist. It's there in black and white for
everybody to see.

More wicked lezzie filth snipped.

Lesbo hell gets hotter every day. I'll pray for sinners that be saved

Since they cannot consent, it is rape.
Further he is known for asking his sexual partners to take an ice bath before sex and then
just lay there without moving.
He is a sicko and a cult leader.

She is known as Lilith van Bohlen, once Thurgood's lawful wife
You remember her, the woman that you rolled out of Thurgood's bed when she was critically
ill so that you and he could continue your disgusting affair.

Well, I helped your ex set up her advertising for Rainbow Flags and Gay
Pride Banners.
She and Gisele are in Provincetown for Women's Week, both selling the
banners and flags and enjoying the music and the shows.

Her skills as a seamstress certainly have been a goddess-send for the
LGBT rights movement.
