OR

Michaiah the daughter of Uriel (2 Chronicles 13:2 )

What are you trying to prove?

u see d word of God itself is a mystery..sometins are beta left unsaid

You are supposed to cherry pick the bible. It is the Devil that is making you identify these contradictions.

U ar making a mistake my brother! Great mistake>before u read d bible always pray 4 wisdom 2understand it

Emmyginger:

It is not ''the word of God'' if it contains ...contradictions. Or is your god a god of confusion?

Pheals:

Ok... now that you've prayed for wisdom, can you tell us who was the mother of Abijah?

Those verses do not contradict each other but they are in perfect harmony.
Yes Jesus is the lion and the Lamb - perfect harmony
Jesus is the rock and the living water - perfect harmony
God is love and a consuming fire - perfect harmony
Jesus is the beginning and the end - perfect harmony

If you can't see the harmony in all of these it shows you are spiritually blind because any spiritual person can see how all those verses are in perfect agreement.
Even if I try explain it to you you won't be able to see it.
So tell me how do you explain a color to a blind man?

My friend shut your dirty lying mouth and get lost from this place. You think you can infect us with your brainwashed head? Either you are on hard drugs or liquor to say that what is a brazenly clear contradiction is no such thing.

My friend shut up your dirty lying mouth and get lost from this place. You think you can infect us with your brainwashed head? Either you are on hard drugs or strong liquor to say that what is a brazenly clear contradiction is no such thing. Damn brainwashed creep.

Would you expect a blind man to see what you see?
Or would you expect a fool to applause the wisdom of the wise?

We are two parallel lines that can't meet. So why don't you mind your business and stop interfering in things you know nothing about.

Come on shut up and get lost. Criminal charlatan. What special knowledge do you have that makes a contradiction ''make perfect sense''? What mysterious endowment do you possess to make the senseless and absurd ''make perfect sense''? You are a criminal, feeding fat off deception and lies, and hoping that people are too 'awed' by your fairytale inventions to seek legitimate answers to your bible's absurdities. Now take your fuc.cked up charlatan self and face the door.

You don't need to be upset that you don't understand these simple things.
Just humble yourself and let me teach you how to develop the ability to see and understand spiritual things. Because it is only when you are spiritually mature that you will be able to discern spiritual things.

If you really desire to know then repent and let me teach you to grow in the spirit then you will be able to see the harmony of those verses by yourself without any help.

Okay...how does a blind man analogy on colour go with a verse that says two contradictory things...tell us the missing factor that makes that contradiction coherent..

And if the world was structured after contradictions like "do not look left to look right and left when crossing the road" how would you make it coherent?

You're ignorant and brainwashed. I'm 100% sure I understand the bible 1000 times more than you do, including its origins, purpose and so on. YOU have no clue whatsoever what that book is about. The very people who introduced it to your great-grandad are now distancing themselves from its claims to divinity and inerrancy, but their colonized dunce - you - is still busy trying to imbue its absurdities with mysterious divinity. When will YOU wake up and start to use your brain?

That is just a sign of pride which is one of the things that had made you blind.

Well I tried but it seem you are not only comfortable of your blindness but you also take pride in your blindness.

So so sad

Who was the mother of abijah? Seriously? Is this the type of question that turn you to atheist? Moses say he saw God, but God on the other hand say no man can see Him, who are we to believe? Moses or God? Most of the english translation is not the same meaning with that of the hebrew and greek word.

King james say God created evil but honestly, evil is not realy a created thing, you can't see,touch or here evil,what the verse is saying is difference.I just hope when you finally know the truth, you will have to preach to all the people you mislead with your thread @ rossikk

I'm not an atheist. This is another arrogant, illiterate conclusion reached by many christians when you question their texts. They assume you don't believe in God! How arrogant can you get? Christianity is a very recent, Johnny Come Lately, new religion compared to most others. The idea of God has been around for thousands of years before the first christian was born. How dare you insinuate that non belief in christianity equates to non-belief in a Supreme Intelligence? The sheer effrontery.

Where did ''God'' say that no man has seen him? It was 'John' who said so, not 'God'. Just as it was 'Jacob' who claimed he saw God. So who are we to believe? 'John' or 'Jacob'? And how is the book ''the word of God'' when it's in fact the words of men making various contradictory claims? Meanwhile, instead of this mealy mouthed attempt at rationalizing the irrational, why not explain the clear CONTRADICTIONS posted above in a way that does not pass you off as a lazy, thoughtless apologist for deception?
