Gospel Discrepancies Of Jesus' Crucifixion by AntiChristian: 10:30am On May 30, 2020 |
By Austin Cline Crucifixion may be one of the most horrible methods of execution ever invented. A person is nailed to a cross or stake and hangs there until their weight suffocates them. The horrors of crucifixion are glossed over by the gospel authors, however, in favor of the deeper theological meanings behind these events. Perhaps that is why the gospel authors were inconsistent in describing what happened. Who Carried Jesus’ Cross? In the Passion narratives, did Jesus carry his cross or not? Mark 15:21, Matthew 27:32, Luke 23:26 - Jesus gets help from Simon of Cyrene John 19:17 - Jesus carries his cross the whole way Inscription on Jesus’ Cross When crucified, Jesus’ cross had an inscription — but what did it say? Mark 15:26 - The inscription: “The King of the Jews.” Matthew 27:37 - The inscription: “This is Jesus the King of the Jews.” Luke 23:38 - The inscription: “This is the King of the Jews.” John 19:19 - The inscription: “Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews.” Jesus and the Thieves Some gospels say Jesus was crucified with two thieves, though the Romans never crucified thieves. Mark - The two thieves are mentioned, but there is no conversation Matthew 27:44 - The two thieves taunt Jesus Luke 23:39-42 - One thief taunts Jesus and is criticized by the other. Jesus promises the 2nd thief that they would be in Paradise that day, though John and Acts say he did not ascend to heaven until 40 days after his resurrection John - The two men aren’t described as thieves Does Jesus Drink Wine or Vinegar?: Jesus is given something to drink while he is on the cross, but what? Mark 15:23 - Jesus is given wine mixed with myrrh, but he doesn’t drink Matthew 27:48, Luke 23:36 - Jesus is given vinegar, but he doesn’t drink John 19:29-30 - Jesus is given vinegar, and he drinks Jesus and the Centurion Romans supposedly witnessed Jesus’ crucifixion, but what did they think? Mark 15:39 - A centurion is cited as saying: “Truly this man was the son of God!” Matthew 27:54 - A centurion is cited as saying: “Truly this was the son of God.” Luke 23:47 - A centurion is cited as saying: “Truly this man was innocent.” John - No centurions say anything Women Watch the Crucifixion: The gospels describe several women as having followed Jesus around, but what did they do when Jesus was crucified? Mark 15:40, Matthew 27:55, Luke 23:49 - Several women watch Jesus from afar John 19:25-26 - Several women are close enough that Jesus could talk to his mother, contrary to Roman practices When Was Jesus Crucified? The crucifixion of Jesus is the central event of the Passion narrative, but the narratives don’t agree on when the crucifixion occurred. Mark 15:25 - Jesus was crucified on the “third hour.” John 19:14-15 - Jesus was crucified on the “sixth hour.” Matthew, Luke - It’s not stated when the crucifixion starts, but the “sixth hour” occurs during the crucifixion Jesus’ Last Words Jesus’ last words before dying are important, but no one seems to have written them down. Mark 15:34-37, Matthew 27:46-50 - Jesus says: “My God, my God, why hast thou forsaken me?” (but they use different Greek words for “God”— Matthew uses “Eli, is” and Mark uses “Eloi”) Luke 23:46 - Jesus says: “Father, into thy hands I commit my spirit.” John 19:30 - Jesus says: “It is finished.” Earthquake After the Resurrection: Was there an earthquake when Jesus died? Matthew 27:51-53 - At the moment Jesus dies, a massive earthquake strikes and opens tombs where dead people rise again Mark, Luke, John - No earthquake is mentioned. No earthquake and no massive influx of formerly dead people are mentioned in any historical records, which is strange given how monumental such an event would be. Cline, Austin. (2020, February 11).

Antichristian, let's examine the Quran Is Allah the only protector? Yes: "Ye have not, beside Him, a protecting friend or mediator. Will ye not then remember?" Quran 32:4 No: "Your guardian can be only Allah; and His messenger and those who believe, who establish worship and pay the poordue, and bow down (in prayer)." Quran 5:55 Is it possible to have a son without a consort? Yes: "She said: "How shall I have a son, seeing that no man has touched me, and I am not unchaste?" He said: "So (it will be): Thy Lord saith, 'that is easy for Me: and (We wish) to appoint him as a Sign unto men and a Mercy from Us':It is a matter (so) decreed." Qur'an 19:20-21 No: "To Him is due the primal origin of the heavens and the earth: How can He have a son when He hath no consort? He created all things, and He hath full knowledge of all things." Quran 6:101 Does Allah speak directly with people? No: It is not fitting for a man that Allah should speak to him except by inspiration, or from behind a veil, Quran 42:51 Yes, to Moses: "Of some messengers We have already told thee the story; of others We have not;- and to Moses Allah spoke direct" Quran 4:164 How long is Allah's day? One thousand years: "Yet they ask thee to hasten on the Punishment! But Allah will not fail in His Promise. Verily a Day in the sight of thy Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning." Quran 22:47 Fifty thousand years: "The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a Day the measure whereof is (as) fifty thousand years:" Quran 70:4 1 Like 1 Share |
