Subject: Advise on contradictions found in bible |
Bible Note: Dear Charis, Thanks for your reply. To start with, I am a christian and I believe in the absolute perfection of the Bible. Contradiction or not my faith is unshakeable. Christianinty to me is a practical thing. When you read the WORD and believe and you stand on the promises therein they come to pass. As you rightly wrote in your reply, they are "darts of doubt" fired against a Christian list on the net by an unbeliever. You wrote that one can deal with them by looking at the context but there are some that one needs concrete explanation on in order to convince unbelievers. Let's take for example the one of Judas, as far a I or any other believer is concerned Judas killed himself but how he did that is of little importance. Whether Judas killed himself by hanging or bursting asunder did not change the fact that Jesus died for the sins of the World and our salvation lies in this sacrifice. But the question is still how to convince unbelievers. So Charis, I will appreicate any cogent explaination, references, website, books etc that can help to clarify the "contradictions". Meanwhile, let me say thank you to all other members that responded to my mail. I will welcome their contributions as well on any or all of the issues raised. Thanks. Benjibabs. |
