Seven Holy Bible Verses That Will Make You Question The Authenticity Of Christia by Nobody: 12:13am On Aug 23, 2020
We all know the goal is aimed at worshipping one God but, the issue of having different versions of the bible adds to the confusion, and brings up a question like, if these books were written by the same persons. Most of these contradicting statements can be mostly found in the old testament but, most people claim the laws of the old testament are no longer considered to be very important because most of the texts happened before the coming of the saviour. Still yet we forget that the method of the payment of tithe originated from the old testament.

Without saying much, let's look at the 10 Bible verses that will make you question the authenticity of Christianity.

1. The first book on this list is Exodus 20:13 according to the Good News version which says "Do not commit murder."

On the same book, Exodus 32:27 says "And he said to them, Thus said the LORD God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbor."

2. Genesis 32:30 says "Jacob said, I have seen God face-to-face, and I am still alive; so he named the place Peniel."

But John 1:18 says “No one has ever seen God. The only Son, who is the same as God and is at the Father's side, he has made him known."

3. Ephesians 2: 8-9 says "For by such grace you have been saved through faith. This does not come from you; it is the gift of God."

James 2:24 says "You observe that a person is justified through actions and not through faith alone."

4. Romans 3:23 says "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God."

Job 1:1 says "There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one that feared God, and turned away from evil."

5. Deuteronomy 27:22 says "Cursed is the one who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen!’"

But according to Wikipedia, the Bible and other sources, Abraham and his sister Sarah were married and their marriage was blessed.

6. Matthew 10:34 says "Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the world. No, I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."

John 16:33 says "I have told you this so that you will have peace by being united to me. The world will make you suffer. But be brave! I have defeated the world!"

7. Proverbs 26:4 says "Don't answer a fool according to his foolishness, or you will be just like him."

Proverbs 26:5 says "Answer a fool according to his foolishness, or he will think himself to be wise."

8. Genesis 17:10 says "Here is my covenant that you are to observe, between me and you and your descendants: Every male among you is to be circumcised.”

Galatians 5:2 says "Listen! I, Paul, am telling you that if you allow yourselves to be circumcised, the Messiah will be of no benefit to you.” tongue

Dear OP,

A good response to your post is found in 2nd Corinthians 3 vs. 6.
Re: Seven Holy Bible Verses That Will Make You Question The Authenticity Of Christia by etrange: 12:40am On Aug 23, 2020
Interesting.

I'm not really religious, I agree to some inconsistencies (afterall, all holy books were written by humans based on thier understanding and influenced by their culture) but I also think some only seem inconsistent because they were taken out of context (e.g No. 6), some are subject to different interpretations (e.g. No.17, the two statements are together and the first part advices you not to let a fool drag you into his mud while the second part advices you not to let his foolishness go unchallenged) while I believe some are just stories used to pass across a message and might not have happened really (e.g. No. 4, the story of Job).

Just my take.

I have always thought about No. 5, God created Adam and Eve, they reproduced and brought forth the next generation, which went on to reproduce till we have this present generation; if we follow the biblical theory of creation, we are all related by blood since we are all descendants of Adam and Eve, so isn't marriage in its entirety incest?
Anyways, what do I know? grin

Don't mention my name in vain fa. The Bible does not need rescue, you do. The Bible has been here and survived for centuries. It is settled and set to survive forever long after you have fossilised.
These are the typical adolescent muslin gyrations. You need living water, not explanation.

this is what i called BIBLE ILLITERACY

1. it's a crime to murder , Is it wrong for governmental authorities to execute a murderer ?Is it wrong for a policeman to use his gun and perhaps even kill someone in order to protect the innocent and enforce the law?

2.jacob did not see God , he saw an angel , he wrestle with an angel .

3. James is not saying that works alone save us. Paul is not saying that faith alone saves us. They are both saying that one without the other is dead. James shows us that faith without works is dead. Paul shows us that works without faith is dead. We need both. A saved man must SHOW the evidence of A SAVING FAITH , BY DOING GOOD WORK

4. job was an upright man doesn't mean he is without sin , the bible does not give more details about his early life , so on what ground do you lay your arguement ?

5. prove it biblicaly that sarah and Abraham are brother and sister

the rest are laugable , bible illiteracy , when you see a verse that seems contradicting to you , then the context will be significant in helping you reveal there is a different time or relationship, hence not in contradiction.

That is the Beauty of Authority and Power.

The Law Giver did not Expressly Prohibit the Marriage and Intercourse between siblings at the beginning according to His Plans and Purpose.

Then, Obviously when His Plans were fulfilled, He Excercised His Right of Declaring it Prohibited.

As The Law Giver Can Always Prohibit, Whatever He Deems it Fit to Prohibit and Can Permit Whatever He Deems it Fit to Permit as God did when He Permited man to eat flesh (meat) with qualification in Genesis 9:3

There is really no Contradiction but what you see is The Laws of Balance.

No one has two left legs or only one right leg. You would not be be able to walk smoothly or even run.

The balance for you to walk smoothly and to run is the Need for a left and right leg, arms, ears, eyes, nostrils etc.

So, also are the instructions for a smooth walking and running through life, Balance is very very Necessary.

That is why Solomon broke it down into what I call The Laws of Opposites, with Time being the Switch!

Simply Put: Exodus 20, The Law Giver and Commander said, You Must Not kill (Unless I have Commanded you to)

Exodus 32:27: Now, The Commander issues His Command that Idol Worshippers in His House, be killed!

Nothing Contradictory!

abbertee:

2. Genesis 32:30 says "Jacob said, I have seen God face-to-face, and I am still alive; so he named the place Peniel."

But John 1:18 says “No one has ever seen God. The only Son, who is the same as God and is at the Father's side, he has made him known

Simply: Genesis 32:30, Jacob Saw A Representative of God like when you see the P.A to the Governor, you do know that you have seen the Governor, even though in another light, you did not meet the Governor, Personally.

This is Usual Conduct even among men, So No Controversy here.

abbertee:

3. Ephesians 2: 8-9 says "For by such grace you have been saved through faith. This does not come from you; it is the gift of God."

James 2:24 says "You observe that a person is justified through actions and not through faith alone."

Simply Put: While The Favour of God May be Extended to You, Nevertheless, You are Judged and Shall be Judged by Your Acts (Words, actions and inactions) and these things Either Condemn you or Exculpate (Justify) you.

abbertee:

4. Romans 3:23 says "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God."

Job 1:1 says "There was a man in the land of Uz, whose name was Job; and that man was blameless and upright, and one that feared God, and turned away from evil."

Romans 3:23: Informs us that everyone sins and we have seen this to be True but has everyone done what Job did, in that he was blameless, upright and feared God?

He even knew to cleanse (consecrate) his children when they partied (and you know where parties are, sins are usually there also), therefore, he who knew to cleanse his children from sins, shall he fail to cleanse himself?

And when a person is cleansed from sin, can the sin still be retained? Nay, All is Gone, like the Woman who cried at Jesus's Feet in Luke 7:37

abbertee:

5. Deuteronomy 27:22 says "Cursed is the one who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen!’"

But according to Wikipedia, the Bible and other sources, Abraham and his sister Sarah were married and their marriage was blessed.

In Genesis, God did not Expressly Prohibit Marriage to Relations of Blood and Close Consanguinities.

In Leviticus and Deuteronomy The Law Prohibiting Degrees of Consanguinities, Sex and Marriage is Expressly Established!

abbertee:

6. Matthew 10:34 says "Do not think that I have come to bring peace to the world. No, I did not come to bring peace, but a sword."

John 16:33 says "I have told you this so that you will have peace by being united to me. The world will make you suffer. But be brave! I have defeated the world!"

Ah! I would have supplied another answer but I will first lay up your own error in not taking account of the words "bring peace to the world" and "you will have peace by being united to me".

They are not the same thing for one is General and Public while the other is Personal and Specific to a Person!

abbertee:

7. Proverbs 26:4 says "Don't answer a fool according to his foolishness, or you will be just like him."

Proverbs 26:5 says "Answer a fool according to his foolishness, or he will think himself to be wise."

Simply The Law of Opposites for smooth operation, Regulated by Time. As Solomon Counseled "There is a Time for Everything Under the Sun, "A time to cast away stones and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing; a time to answer a fool and a time to refrain from answering the fool." Ecclesiastes 3.

abbertee:

8. Genesis 17:10 says "Here is my covenant that you are to observe, between me and you and your descendants: Every male among you is to be circumcised.”

Galatians 5:2 says "Listen! I, Paul, am telling you that if you allow yourselves to be circumcised, the Messiah will be of no benefit to you.” tongue

See evidence of a bad Bible in your Galatians 5:2 when it Rightly Said "Behold, I Paul say unto you, that if ye be circumcised, Christ shall profit you nothing".

That aside, in Genesis The Law of Circumcision was Complete, being Both Bodily and Spiritly.

But by the time of the Galatians, God's Laws had perverted and even those who "appeared" to obey it, where now doing it wrong.

So, Paul was putting it to them that they Obey Not God's Law even though they "appear" to be obeying it.

Which is why he had advocated for the circumcision of the heart which is Circumcision of your spirit.

So, no controversy or Contradiction anywhere! Men this was long!
