1 | does bible contradict itself? | 2 Pet 3:16 | skccab | 195443 | ||
Shalom Brad, Thank you for sharing that piece from Torrey. It helps. I don't believe that there are any errors or contradictions either, but like Torrey said, sometimes our limited knowledge makes it appear so. Case in point: the genealogy found in Matthew 1 - it gives 3 breakdowns of 14 generations each, but the 3rd breakdown stops at the birth of Messiah which is only 13 generations. To someone new, or just reading with the intellect that would appear to be an error or contradiction. It is probably listed elsewhere what the missing generation is but I kind of like to think that the 14th generation is us, the believers who have been born into the Family of God by grace through trust in Yeshua. still learning Cheri |

Hi Cheri, Absolutely. In fact, the genealogy in Matt. 1 is one of the examples he covers in detail in the book. Another point he makes is that just because someone "alleges" there are discrepancies, i.e. can't explain a difficulty, doesn't mean that there isn't an answer it for it. Speaking the Truth in Love, BradK |
