Hi Trudy.

As Brother Jesse said I believe a verse to consider is Revelation 19:8.

Garments is often used as an idiom for our righteousness. In Revelation the Lord clothes us with Revelation 3:4-5. Thou hast a few names even in Sardis which have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy.

He that overcometh, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; and I will not blot out his name out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my Father, and before his angels.

Revelation 3:18. I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.

The Lord clothes us with his righteousness.

Our righteousness is as filthy rags

Isaiah 64:6. But we are all as an unclean thing, and all our righteousnesses are as filthy rags; and we all do fade as a leaf; and our iniquities, like the wind, have taken us away.

Our effort to cleanse our self apart from Chist is as filthy rags.

God bless.

Amen Brother

Trudy,

Sounds like the Pastors were combining parts of scripture to make a point that every one will have different rewards, some more than others. Some lights will shine brighter than others. Maybe they were considering lights as clothing.

Revelation 2:23 And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

Daniel 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

God bless,

RLW

Salute Jesse that he fulfilled the order to make all the gentiles obedient in word and deed.

Cherry P.S. Years ago a world famous russian mathematics professor who happened to be an atheist made it a lifetime commitment to prove the bible was mathematically imperfect. About 5 years in his research work he got born again, he never got through the whole book because its perfection blew His Mind. At least if you want help you at the right source, try looking at the gospels for your answers. God Bless

Hello, looks like you might have copy pasted this list from an atheist website or somewhere. Look up the phrase 'confirmation bias' as every one of these so called contradictions is based on a false assumption leading to a false understanding. People will sometimes end up seeing and believing what they already want to believe rather than what is actually true.

If you want to discuss each one at a time that is welcomed, but I'm sure you're aware that people before have shared false information before. This list is one of those. If you're genuinely interested in what the Bible says you can just read it and post any questions you have here one at a time. But your posting can be viewed as atheist propaganda for people afraid of the God's truth and the real implications it has for their life.

P.S. Cherry if you have another way out of all the stuff happening around us and a better explnation of who authorized creation, please let me know, not saying I'll believe it we we have with Gods Word and the guarantees are too good.

S Spencer I will not deny that a post pointing out that the Bible we have supposedly has a ton of error which I and you know is not true. But here's a true story for you, years ago a world famous Russian professor in math and to boot atheist at the time set out to disprove that Gods word was not mathematically perfect. In the middle of his studies he got Born again. It got so deep it blew His 5 senses cork, perhaps she's looking for answers or in a spot in her life where she needs real help and right now its her way of searching. I don't know her heart only God Does.

Cherry

Since according to you God's word is so compromised. And you took it upon yourself to research this.

Can you give us who trust on Gods word for our Salvation can you give us an ALTERNATIVE? Our souls depend on Gods promise to preserve it!!!

Wouldn't be incredible to have Gods word as it was given originally when Holy men of God spake, but I'm thankful for what the KJV translators accomplished by Gods Grace was a monumental task and I choose to believe they Got a vast majority correct. God covered it all as He always does. God Bless

Kipyegon In the Epistle of James 3:13-17, Phillipians 4:8 just to name a few. to deal with in practice Colossians 3:1:17, 5-11 put off, 12-17 put on , also to put off Ephesians 4: 22-32. All to put to memory, and to summarize Phillippians 4:9 and the God of peace shall be with you. God Bless

Hi Cherry.

Mind you I haven't read any of your proposed contradictions. Just the opening of each of the posts where you seem to go to great lengths..

I personally don't concern myself with contradictions of details when Almoghty God is able to preserve TRUTH. " THE MESSAGE" Which is spread throughout 66 books.

Isaiah 28:9-10. Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.

For precept must be upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little:

And God didn't just give us his message by letter. His creation declare his Glory. Some say the Gospel is written in The Stars.

Attacking the integrity of the Scripture and say God can't preserve his word contradicts God word!!

Psalms 12:6-7. The words of the LORD are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times.

Thou shalt keep them, O LORD, thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever.

It's the wok of Satan.

Trudy I don't think that Can be answered from Gods Word but I do believe our just father will bless everybody accordingly.

Amen! So true.

Trudy,

It might be possible that they were referring to Revelation 19:8 that says we, as His bride, will be clothed in white, fine linen. But without knowing the context of their speech, it would be hard to know why they said that?

Trudy, may CHRIST IN US grace us with HIS wisdom and HIS understanding.

He who is born of the flesh is flesh, he who is born of the Spirit is SPIRIT.

Does SPIRIT need clothes, streets to walk on, houses with rooms to live in, windows to look out of, doors to go through, sun to give light, food to eat, water to drink.

Behold all things have become NEW.

You want exist as you do NOW.

You become the LIKENESS OF CHRIST (fullness of Deity), who only hath immortality (life with no end).

Ephesians 4:13 Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and the knowledge of the Son of God,unto a perfect man, unto the measure and stature of the FULLNESS OF CHRIST.

Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be FILLED WITH ALL THE FULLNESS OF GOD.

Which is his body, the FULLNESS of him that filleth all in all.

Colossians 1:29 For in him dwelleth all the FULLNESS of the Godhead bodily.

Colossians 1:27 ...this mystery...CHRIST IN YOU....

John 3:13 No man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of Man which is in heaven (CHRIST IN YOU).

Luke 17:21 .....THE kingdom of GOD is WITHIN YOU.

Revelation 21:1 You are the NEW HEAVEN

Nice sharing bro Another point I would like to share is that he was incarcerated so much that people started to get tricked into not believing what he taught anymore. Others were telling them that if Gods working in Him why is He always getting in trouble, they were looking at it buy the senses not spiritually Ephesians 6:12. He preached to all asia minor in acts and by 2 Timothy 1:15 He writes almost everyone turned from Him. That's an unbelievable verse when you think about it. With all the signs miracles he did by Gods power and they witnessed it they were still tricked out of the truth.

Fred , we all have our weaknesses and we all occasionally give in to them , no matter how hard we try we are all still made of flesh and blood , God is sooo very merciful , He understands us , stay strong Fred , He adores you and wants you with Him for ever , He has so many beautiful things to show us , it will all be worth it , I know you already know all these things Fred , you are a bright light on this site and we need your input , God helps us all through this site and all the different personalities on here , we are brothers and sisters in Christ and we belong to Him and to each other , hope to meet you soon Fred .

Hi Fred , loneliness can destroy people , it's not just about being physically alone but it can be about believing that no one cares about you , I lived alone for quite a few years and never felt lonely ,there are others who can't bare to be alone for even a couple of hours , I have relatives that some people say they talk too much , they phone too often , they turn up unexpectedly , they are always asking if they can help me in any way , all these people live alone , as Christians we must , I say must , pay special attention to people who live alone , if they start to believe that no one cares about them they can go down hill very quickly , it's our responsibility , it's our duty , to make sure that none of our members feel unloved uncared for unimportant unvalued or insignificant .

That's an excellent example of faith ! I appreciate it .

Abraham was told to go to another land not knowing anything about it . He is known as the father of faith .

Who is Gog and Maygog ?

Car, what is the gospel.

Jesse I agree with what you share about coming to Christ and getting peace with God but my Bible also says John 10:9 The thief the adversary is the thief and His only ministry is to steal, kill and destroy. Jesus Christ total opposite I am come that they may have life and have it more abundant. When we come to Gods word get Humble and believe God always comes through. 1 Peter 5:6-8, the enemy of mankind wants to take life and he doesn't care how. One of the problems in our day and time we believe on Hog good The true God is but we don't believe that the enemy is absolutely evil. Suicide is not of The Will of the True God.Its says in Gods word he will always make a way out that a believer can handle it. God Bless

We are always against the influence of the enemy and are armor is Gods word in thought and action in Love.

Look at Romans 12:9 Abhor means treat with absolute disgust, but Love the person despise the sin. Abhor that which is evil all evil of devil.

Thanks for letting me know about this and like you i believe jesus spoke all the way to 21 as well !!!!!! god bless you an thanks again!!!!

Mark Absolutely not Our Heavenly father is the author of life and health and prosperity. Gospel of John 10:9+10 The thief cometh not but to steal kill and destroy. That's all the adversary does, 10 I am come that they might have life and have it more abundantly Jesus Christ. People do this when they are tricked that there's no way out. It does not please True God, the devil could care less. P.S. Going to Jesus Christ and Confessing Romans 10:9+10 God will always make a way up and out. God Bless

I'm doing research on Historical Bible mistakes and contradictions. The work is as expansive as hidden crimes come to life. For those who make up excuses for the current Bible errors, shame on you. These errors have already been corrected, and no thanks to the people who pleaded against the changes, saying God makes no mistakes. God is perfect, people are not.

in 1860, William Henry Burr produced a list of 144 self-contradictions in the Bible.

A 1716 edition of the 17th-century King James version (known as the Party Bible) replaces "Sin no more" from Jeremiah 31:34 with "Sin on more". There were 8,000 copies printed before anyone noticed.

"Let the children first be killed" is Mark 7:27 and it's supposed to be: "Let the children first be filled." A 1795 edition of the King James version.

"If the latter husband ate her" Known as the Cannibal's Bible, a 1682 printing alters this passage from Deuteronomy 24:3, which is meant to read: "If the latter husband hate her."

" I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." Genesis 32:30

"No man hath seen God at any time" John 1:18

"The son shall not bear the iniquity of the father" Ezekiel 18:20

"I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation" Exodus 20:5

Mark,

It's hard to answer that in that we don't know what a person might be going through that would cause them to take their own life. I don't think God satisfaction in a person taking their own life. Most of it comes from going through some type of hardship that the individual cannot handle themselves. Even believers can be some of the most miserable people. I've been around believers who were miserable because of life's circumstances. I think it comes from not being able to fully trust the Lord when we are faced with a tough time in our life. The bible says in 1 Peter 5:5-8 that we are to cast all our cares on the Lord. Why? Because He's fully capable of handling our problems. But there are times when we in our own human effort try and resolve our own problems, and they often time become worse, even to the point to where the person gives up and is no longer trusting the Lord in their situation.

There's a word used throughout the New Testament. It's the word MERIMNA for care, anxiety, and worry. The verb form is MERIMNAO which means to be anxious, or to be troubled. It describes anything that occupies the attention of our mind. Peter presents this word as the only weapon Satan has against a believer in Christ. It's normal to go through life and be concerned, have anxiety, and even stress. That's just a normal part of life that we are all faced with. But we are taught to cast all our cares (MERIMNA) on the Lord, and not let those cares or anxieties overcome us. We're not to be so consumed by our hardships to where we are no longer trusting in the Lord.

Jesus said in Matthew 11:30, "For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light." People struggle because they try and fix things that are designed for only God to fix. But Jesus says to come to Him and He will give us rest. His yoke is easy, and His burden is light. But we let life's difficulties (MERIMNA) stand in between us and Christ. We struggle because we are not ready to hand it over to Christ!
