How can you know there is a contradiction unless you know what the verses mean?

Words sunshine, that's how. One verse says different words to the other words written in the other two verses. Or are you yet again going to put your own words and interpretations into the mouths of these Gospel writers in a vain attempt to prove that they do not contradict one another.

They CLEARLY contradict one another. One gospeller writes that the women didn't tell anyone what it was they had witnessed at the empty tome and gives a reason why they didn't. yet two other gospellers claim that they did speak of their experience. Why are you denying this fact.

Stop trying to bury these contradictory verses with stalling and filibustering and either explain them or simply admit that they are indeed what they are and always will remain: CONTRADICTIONS!

You THINK the verses contradict.

No. I know they do contradict one another , REGARDLESS of what I may or may not think.

Matthew 28:8-9 King James Version
8 And they [the women] departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

And Luke appears to be supporting Matthew version ;

Luke 24:9 King James Version (KJV)
9 And [the women] returned from the sepulchre, and told all these things unto the eleven, and to all the rest.

So good so far, until ,that is, we read Marks version of events.

Mark 16:8 King James Version (KJV)8
8 And they went out quickly, and fled from the sepulchre; for they trembled and were amazed: neither said they any thing to any man; for they were afraid.

It is also interesting to note here the massive contradiction from Matthew (28:9) above where he tells of the women holding Jesus' feet.

These Gospel writers just cannot seem to get it together , can they?

I'm asking what what the verse you offered means.

I offered three verses. Where one gospel writer contradicts the another two regardless of what it means to me. It is what they say and how they contradict one another that concerns me, and not what I believe they say or imagine what they are saying. Stop trying to divert by asking my thoughts. I have told you clearly that they DO contradict one another. THAT IS WHAT THEY MEAN TO ME!

If you were here, you would address my points instead of simply saying you disagree. Your post is here. You aren't.

You haven't made any points though , have you. You have simply posted verses that also contradict the contradiction/s that I have highlighted. This is what I mean when I wrote that by you using passages from the same unreliable contradictory source you are digging a bigger hole. The burden of proof , as I have already pointed you lies with you. And you have failed to prove that the contradiction highlighted on this thread is not a contradiction when it clearly is.

If one makes a statement that is full of contradictions, would it be sensible or reliable to use the same contradictory statement to prove the statement is not contradictory? This is what you are doing , but you are too far up your own jacksie to even consider yourself to be in the wrong. But I don't care, personally. People can see for themselves that you are having a lot of trouble explaining away the highlighted contradiction that is the topic of this thread.

Does this mean they never spoke to anyone ever again,

It doesn't say does it. And we cannot start arguing over what the scriptures DON'T say, can we. Or are you attempting another rewrite of these biblical documents by inserting something of your own in a pitiful attempt to explain away yet another blinding contradiction from the writers of these gospels?

What is does do though is CONTRADICT both Mark & Luke. Matthew 28:8-9 King James Version

8 And they [the women] departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word.
9 And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

@BrotherDThomas

Yes, the passages you have quoted upon Jesus' 3 day tomb nap are contradicting.

I appreciate your candor.

I accept biblical contradictions.

That is refreshing to hear. Although I will admit , I do get some enjoyment watching many believers stutter and stumble, lie and cheat, and attempt to completely re-write these scriptures in a vain attempt to explain away what are clear contradictions.

Ethang5! I have had to "Bible Slap" this FAKE Christian silly,

Slap away brother. I do find your jousts with ethang amusing at times.

Furthermore, what always disturbed me relative to the main topic of your initial post, as a TRUE Christian, is the fact that Jesus never really died,

I agree completely. Jesus didn't die and neither did Lazarus. They were both a death of initiation and not physical eternal death. And in my opinion, the bible itself actually proves this to be the case.

As you being an Atheist,

In all honesty brother, I am not sure how someone such as yourself would describe me. I happen to believe these scriptures and believe all these biblical characters existed. I look at them in an historical sense and don't have a 'religious' bone in my body. I believe these scriptures are trying to tell us something , I also believe they are also hiding something. I believe there is a truer story below the surface of these scriptures that, for whatever reason simply couldn't be told openly at the time. For example, from my own research and understanding, I have good reason to believe the Baptist and Jesus were half brothers and serious rivals. I believe Jesus had a hand in the baptists death.

I am sure you would agree that for a true sacrifice, one remains dead, therefore, Jesus truly didn't die to save the sins of the world because He continued to live!

You are correct. I do agree.

Post #4 Stephen.

Yes ethang. I read your poor convoluted attempt at post 4 where you try to explain away this blinding biblical contradiction, but it changes nothing. Like I have already pointed out , your poor attempt at re writing the scriptures is always your first default, and putting words into the mouths of the biblical authors and characters is your second default.

You posted 200 so called contradictions but can't respond to even 2 of them rebutted.

I posted way more than that after you challenged members with this post:

@ethang5 post 9 "83 days later, how many contradictions in the bible have been listed here so far?"https://www.debateart.com/forum/topics/2392/contradictions-in-the-bible-thread

. You then cried that there were far too many. You also on the other hand, then simply tried to explain away only TWO of over THREE HUNDRED contradictions using passages from the same unreliable contradictory source.

just want to make claims and then run away.

I haven't gone anywhere. I don't have to run away from anything. The burden of proof my friend rests entirely on your miserable hunched shoulders.

Your running away makes people see that your claims are bogus.

There is nothing bogus about the contradiction that I have highlighted in my first post of this thread . It is there for anyone either to see and accept it for what it is, or they are free to challenge it. Here it is again for those reading here to decide if or not theses are biblical contradictions or not.>>>

1 John 4:12 King James Version (KJV) No man hath seen God at any time.

Well that for me is a definite statement. I am sure there will be those who will attempt to re-write this verse thereby putting new and alternate words into the mouth of the author ; John,

But of course they would have to do the same with Timothy who states ;

1 Timothy 6:16 King James Version (KJV) Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see[God]: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

Both of these statements deny the fact that the bible is extremely clear when it comes to who has seen (not to mention spoke to) god face to face.

The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day (Genesis 18:1).

The Lord would speak to Moses face to face, as one speaks to a friend (Exodus 33:11).

And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.(Genesis 32:30) King James Version (KJV)

This isn't to mention that Adam and Eve are also said to have seen god and Jacob wrestled with this being called god and Abraham spoke, ate and drank with his god.

So you posted a fake quote of Jesus in the

Stop telling lies. Lies won't win you an argument and I do not have to respond to you at all if I wish not to. You on the other hand must defend your scripture against these very clear contradictions. You have attempted to address only 1 or 2 (and failed) to explain them away with rational or even good old commonsense and have chosen to ignore the other near on 300! contradictions that are clearly there written in your scripture as many here admit to noting for themselves and accept them for what they are.

This "contradiction" is kaput jedthro.

No, the contradiction remains as clear as day. And you trying to filibusterer and bore people rigid with long winded passages of corrupt text from the same corrupted, ambiguous source simply digs a bigger hole in the scriptures. But you are far to blind to recognize this fact. Name calling doesn't win you arguments either. And, as I predicted, you are attempting to rewrite the scripture to hide this unavoidable very clearly written, biblical contradiction.

John clearly states:

1 John 4:12 King James Version (KJV) No man hath seen God at any time. <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< AT ANY TIME do you not see that???

NOW READ HERE >>>>>>>>The Lord appeared to Abraham near the great trees of Mamre while he was sitting at the entrance to his tent in the heat of the day (Genesis 18:1).

The Lord would speak to Moses >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> FACE TO FACE<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<,>>>>>>>>>> as one speaks to a friend<<<<<<<<<<< (Exodus 33:11).

And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>I have seen God FACE TO FACE,<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< and my life is preserved.(Genesis 32:30) King James Version (KJV)

This isn't to mention that Adam and Eve are also said to have seen god. or to mention that Jacob wrestled with this being called god and Abraham spoke, ate and drank with his god.

There is no getting away from the fact that these verses are written in biblical scripture , no matter how many times you try to tell us they mean something else , or that I don't understand or how many times you try to put YOUR words into the mouths of the biblical authors and characters.

You do have an argument and you certainly do NOT have an explanation.

There has been a surge of god hating liberals believe that we were created by aliens.This is the same as believing in god

It is the same imo and maybe that is because gods & aliens are one & the same. There are many references to so called gods ascending and descending to and from the "heavens" / space on clouds of fire and smoke to a thunderous sound so loud it forced people of ancient biblical times to tremble and cower in fear dread. Have you ever been to Cape Canaveral? The sound of the then space shuttle was deafening and frightening and an awesome sight to witness.

People know deep down the reason why the human brain is ten trillion times more advance then the modern computer is because it is created by someone who is ten trillion times more intelligent then the one who created the computer.

That's an opinion not to mention a great assumption.

People usually spout all these facts about science. Like how atoms DNA and laws of physics work.

Indeed. Which is more than the theist does when trying to explain how a supernatural being created everything and why. Simply saying that this being is all powerful and knowing doesn't cut anymore in the educated 21st century where many people have and can, think and work a few thing out for themselves. Stop being to arrogant.

They do this thinking they are disproving god.

No. they can do this because they have undertaken years of study and experiment that explain with facts and evidence how some things came about and why some thing exist.

But because these things are so much more advance then anything we have ever made.It is the most obvious proof that god exist.

opinion and no facts .

It is pure denial.

That cuts both ways.

What is Religion About?

It is about control.

Religion is a very human creation. The word is a relatively modern word and isn't even mentioned in the OT and only 1 or 2 times in the NT, to my knowledge.

I have said here many times that there was never any such thing as religion during the time of the biblical patriarchs or before or even in Jesus time. Priests were only there to do the bidding of the lords, that is, those who today are referred to as "gods". The priests had no contact with the general population whatsoever, they were confined to the temple complex where they were taught all kinds 'magic' such as SPELL -ING, reading, writing, mathematics, astronomy and other sciences i.e. healing and medicine.

It was the kings who ruled over the people with the blessing (permission) of the ruling lord of the time and place. And only the high priest conveyed messages to the king from "his lord" and the king would act on those commands along with his own rules , laws and instructions. These kings, were eventually usurped by these priest once these lords had " left like migrating birds" and as today, it is only the priests who are the king makers and not the Lords.

Thankfully, "religion" doesn't any longer have the grip over the people in the modern develope world that it once had and people have learned to think for themselves.

@EtrnlVw

The ultimate question is; why did "god" create anything in the first fkn place?

Simple, picture God as an eternal creative intelligence. Or just an eternal aware conscious reality. Now imagine that reality a singular reality... just like yourself when you get alone and close your eyes, the observer that is behind your physical form. God is a singular reality, meaning there is no mommy God, no Daddy God, no brother God or sister. This Reality exists eternally alone and permeates all of creation.
God creates to experience something outside Itself, and this happens through endless channels of awareness. God observes both through form and outside form. It doesn't really matter that it all comes from God, at least there is something to observe and do. God creates because there is an investment.

I honestly cannot remember the last time I had read such illiterate CRAP!!!!! You have absolutely no evidence for that BS and you know it. You would have done better starting that absolute BS with the words - , in my humble opinion.

And the only ancient civilisation that has answered the question of; why did god create man? is the Mesopotamians. They tell us we/man were created as a slave species to do the bidding of the "gods". And for those who have missed it, the bible tells us similar.

Nah, the answer is very simple. God creates because God is creative by nature, same as you and I. And God wishes to express Itself and does so through creation on multiple levels.

Nothing but more of the same crap as you have wrote above. The bible itself tell us that - god, in all of his wisdom - , realised he had forgot to create ' a man to till the land' , that is to labour on the land. Other bible versions have it that - there was "no man to cultivate the ground". One has to wonder why god simply didn't make the land self cultivating? Why did the land even need cultivating in the first place?

I am afraid that your absolute nonsense simply raises more questions than it will ever answer.

There were no Christians before Jesus. Jesus is the King of kings. The king of everyone.

Only half right. There were no Christians. And he was king of The Jews. Well done! you're getting there.

Not to mention the FACT that there were no Christians at the time of these commands.
So what?

Exactly, my you do catch only eventually don't you. There was no Christianity so they couldn't have been instructed to go preach his word to Christians THAT'S WHAT!.

And this is regardless of what Paul may or may not say. Jesus himself laid down a strict commandment about who should and should not receive his word.
He said whomsoever in the world believes, ......

And that includes Eskimos, Incas, Mayans and Aborigines & Inuites too did it? Tell me, would he cast out those like myself who does not believe this Christ to be a god or even a son of a god? Even though "he died that we may live"? You are the one who is extremely confused you poor thing.

John 3:16 "For God loved the world in this way".

Another contradiction. "god" hated the world that he created and man in particular and decided to destroy it.

This is why you can never win an argument, because you constantly try to put words into the Christ's mouth that he didn't utter. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Lol. Would you like me to give you verses talking about the universality of Jesus' message?

Is all I would like you to do is, instead of trying to put words into the mouth of the Christ, is to face the simple fact that the bible does indeed have contradictions. HUNDREDS of them. Christians cannot even agree on the days the Christ was born, or who his father was or when he was crucified.

But His message was for everyone.

No it was not and you cannot prove it was. I have to keep reminding you, Jesus was a JEW, not a Christian. He was a JEWISH priest NOT a Christian priest. He was king of the JEWS (even Pontius Pilate recognised this) NOT king of Christians. In fact I believe Jesus would have been totally appalled at the fact the a new religion had sprung up in his name.

Jesus was sent only to the lost sheep, but His message was universal.

The evidence proves otherwise. And you can ignore it all day long. Jesus himself says “I was sent ONLY to the lost sheep of Israel.” <<<< see that? not a single mention of christians or you.

Add to this a further FACT you so crave :

The twelve were sent with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.” (Matthew 10:5–6)

See that? This is Jesus enforcing a strict command on who the disciples should and shouldn't preach to. "the lost sheep of ISRAEL" not Christians or YOU. Not to mention the FACT that there were no Christians at the time of these commands. And this is regardless of what Paul may or may not say. Jesus himself laid down a strict commandment about who should and should not receive his word.

You are clutching at straws and simply dying for words to be in the scriptures that simply are not there. This is why you can never win an argument, because you constantly try to put words into the Christ's mouth that he didn't utter. You should be ashamed of yourself.

There are without doubt some contradictions that are damming to Christianity in my opinion.

A clear example is that of the so called 'Great Commision'. One must keep in mind that Jesus was a Jew, plain and simple. In Fact he was king of the Jews no less. Not king of the Christians

https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+28%3A19&version=KJV

The twelve were sent with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans. Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.” (Matthew 10:5–6) https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+10%3A5%E2%80%936&version=KJV

So, plainly this then is not a universal message. And again we see it with the encounter with the Canaanite woman:

[Jesus denied her plea to heal her daughter, saying] “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”

The woman came and knelt before him. “Lord, help me!” she said.
He replied, “It is not right to take the children’s bread and toss it to the dogs.” (Matthew 15:24–6)

If we go back to the Old Testament we won't find an all-inclusive message there, either. The Israelites were God’s “Chosen People,” and God had some choice words to say about anyone not "his people":

No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of Jehovah, not even in the tenth generation (Deuteronomy 23:3).

God also forbids intermarriage with these foreign tribes (Deut. 7:3; Ezra 9:2, 10:10; Nehemiah 13).

Since Stephen has blocked me (IMO, blocking hampers my freedom of speech in responding directly to him yet gets to reply to my posts directly)

Yes I forget that I had you on block. But I do now remember why it was I had you blocked in the first place. So in all fairness, I won't respond to any more of your tedious convoluted drivel again.

There are undoubtedly , what some may refer to as 'trivial' contradictions but contradictions all the same.

But there are without doubt some contradictions that are damming to Christianity in my opinion.

A clear example is that of the so called 'Great Commision'. One must keep in mind that Jesus was a Jew, plain and simple. In Fact he was king of the Jews no less. Not king of the Christians

Your an atheist

Who said? I have told you, I believe everything the bible has to say, I also accept that there are undoubtedly contradictions in the text. I just don't look at the bible or read it like some fawning, cowering, backward medieval peasant who cannot read or think for himself.

Again, I don't see his list as contradictions.

Of course you don't. This saves you from having to explain away these very obvious contractions. Like I have said. Atheist were challenged to post biblical contradictions here and now you complain that far too many have been posted.

I would have and was, going to given this pointless thread a wide berth until you posted this goading statement challenging atheist to post here with biblical contradictions, implying atheists were unable to find any because according to you; the faithful, there aren't any.

83 days later, how many contradictions in the bible have been listed here so far?

You got what you asked for , regardless of the source, and now your crying because there are far too many for you to handle. And those lists of nearly 200 contradictions that I have posted were from the New Testament alone, I couldn't be bothered to "mine" the net for Old Testament contradictions.

Now is all you have to do is start explaining away these very clear contradictions. It is not for me to do so. Now. off you go and take as long as you like.

Sure you do. But there is a reason you people always mass dump this old tired logicless dross. You don't want to support any of them, you just want all accepted as contradictions without any critical thought of any.

If to you then they are not contradictions, then simply start by telling us why they are not contradictions, instead of attempting to passing these very clear contradictions off as " dross". You do yourself or your beliefs or your faith no justice or favours by simply trying to play down and wave away what are clear & obvious contradictions for anyone to see for themselves.

You don't want to support any of them,

Support them as what!!!? I don't have to. I have pointed them out. They are clear biblical contradictions. It is down to you, the believer and the faithful to explain away these contradictions. NOT ME!!!

I've seen you argue many of them right here on Dart and lose,

Well let us all see me lose again, instead of you resorting to outright telling lies about me. . Why don't you try just clearing up a few of these NT biblical contradictions. Tell me why for instance, Paul states that he does not lie. Rom.9:1; 2 Cor.11:31; Gal.1:20; 1 Tim.2:7. but then

Paul states that he does lie. Rom.3:7.?

What about you explaining to us how it is that Jesus can say on the one hand : if he bears witness to himself, his testimony is true. Jn.8:14. YETon the other Jesus says that, if he bears witness to himself, his testimony is not true. Jn.5:31.

And please, take your time.

You've dropped 200 allegations, not a single contradiction.

Stop telling lies. The contradictions are there above, as clear as day for anyone; including a extremely poor reader to see. Now is all you have to do, is simply explain to us all why they are not contradictions , according to you?

One contradiction would do, the fact that you had to post a wall of text is telling.

It is very telling isn't it? It is telling that there are contradictions in the bible that YOU cannot explain away.
