Home Essay Series Bible contradictions
This complete ten-essay series examines alleged Bible contradictions that disappear when the disputed verses are read carefully, compared honestly, and interpreted within their proper context. Using the King James Bible throughout, the studies address Paul and James on faith and works, seeing God while no man has seen God, God testing Abraham without tempting men to sin, answering and not answering a fool, bearing one another’s burdens while carrying personal responsibility, the two genealogies of Jesus Christ, the changing testimony of the thief on the cross, the timing of the crucifixion, Judas’s hanging and subsequent fall, and Paul’s three Damascus-road accounts. Each essay demonstrates how exact wording, audience, chronology, agency, complementary testimony, and right division resolve the supposed conflict without correcting or weakening Scripture. After completing the series, readers will understand how to distinguish a genuine contradiction from a difference in perspective, sequence, emphasis, or doctrinal setting—and how to examine future accusations against the Bible with greater confidence and precision.
