What if i put it to you that they are not contradictionsIf Gods book has any contradiction however minimal, what does that say about that God?
Why and how did God allow any contradiction to get into his book?
Was this God taking a break and sleeping while the contradictions creeped into the texts?
Or is it that this God does not exist at all, and the error are because the books were written by people and this God is a human fabrication?
Hicho kidongo.What if ana mapepo?
Yeye si haamini hayapo
Actually amesema hayapo
Why should he be bothered?
Hujathibitisha Mungu yupo.Who told you Mungu amejificha?
Just because you cant see Him doesn't mean he's not there
We don't see your memory and intelligence
But we know it's there right (if it's actually there that is)
I am very open to change.And i have come to realize something.
You seem like you don't want to receive anything that is against what you have preconceived and won't be moved and won't accept anything remotely
If that is the case, tell me and i could save my energy and use it elsewhere where it will be productive and will yield great fruit
Malaika nao hawapo ni stori tuNaomba malaika ashuke azime mitandao ya kijamii
Likewise to natural disastrous,What was he doing at the exact moments when earthquakes and hurricanes hit Haiti?
Was he aware of the situations but decided not to rescue Haitians from miseries?...then he has no love to all people.
Was he eager to rescue Haitians but he was unable to do so?....then he is unable to do everything.
He was willing and able to do so but he did nothing because those disastrous are processes incorporated in his creation.....then he is not a masterdesigner.
Eti mtu anathubutu kabisa kusema...Nimeongea na Mungu....Hahahaaa, kuna watu ni hatari sana....unaongea na kitu usichojua kama kipo? huo siyo mwanzo wa ukichaa?kweli kabisa kiongozi.
Ngoja tuone kama wataweza kutusaidia leo kutuombea kumuona ili nasi tuamin kama Mosses.
That is cognitive dissonance pulling a "deus ex machina".What if i put it to you that they are not contradictions
They are simply Bible verses that disagree seemingly on their own but when connected to other bible verses the truth is revealed that they are actually not contradicting but they are expanding on each other to bring forth a common message?
Ever thought of that?
We are agreed the origin of the universe is the Big Bing Bang. Question- do we need a God to set it all
up so a Big Bang can bang?
God is an idea created by man.Likewise to natural disastrous,What was he doing at the exact moments when earthquakes and hurricanes hit Haiti?
Was he aware of the situations but decided not to rescue Haitians from miseries?...then he has no love to all people.
Was he eager to rescue Haitians but he was unable to do so?....then he is unable to do everything.

Please brother refer to a quote above where i said they are not contradictions.I am very open to change.
I would actually prefer for a God to exist.
That would lift a lot if responsibility from my shoulders.
Sadly, the evidence points otherwise.
Your Bible is full of unresolved contradictions.
That shows it is not the word of God.
Because God does not exist.
No it can'tGod is an idea created by man.
There is no actual omnipotent, omniscient and omni benevolent God.
This can be demonstrated logically.
It is also illogical just as someone who says that there must a first cause who is uncaused.Habari zenu wana JF. Leo nataka niwaletee ukweli ambao wapinga mungu kama Kiranga huwa hawauelewi. Swali hilo ni hili.
Swali: Je, kama Mungu yupo, nani alimuumba Mungu? (Au ametokea wapi?)
Jibu: Mungu ana sifa ya kutokuwa na mwanzo wala mwisho, hivyo hilo swali halina mantiki. Pia tufanye kuwa Mungu ameumbwa, kwa hiyo logic ni kuwa aliyemuumba naye anatakiwa awe ameumbwa, na kuendelea. Hivyo ni wazi kuwa kutakuwa na miungu infinity kitu ambacho ni Illogical. Hivyo namaliza kwa kusema kuwa, Swali la Who Created God is an illogical question.
Ok, perhaps death is a good thing to the Theists,...But:You see to an atheist death is the worst thing that could happen.
Why? Because you really don't know or believe anything that comes after that.
To us believers death is not the worst thing that could happen because death opens way to eternal life, a life that lasts a loot longer than these odd 70 years on Earth
There's a promise of heaven in scriptures, there's a promise of a sinless world where we can trully relate to God much closer without there being sin
YeahMalaika nao hawapo ni stori tu
How do you know they exist? Isn't that your mental creation?We can see God's power in everything we see. If fact Kiranga you don't know what God wants. God want you to TRUST him. You can not see God without first to TRUST him. God want you to do good deeds even when you can't feel him in your surrounding.
I ask you one thing. Can you prove if demons exist? If you cant, then how do you explain demonic possessions?
Trust me, even science failed completely to explain how and why people get possessed with demons! They will never explain scientifically because it is not a scientific fact, its a spiritual fact.
So, God is a spiritual fact, dwelling in an immaterial place, so you can't scientifically prove him for the same reasons as applied in demonic possessions.
But we all know that demons exist by looking the effects they do, in our environment.
Got me?
An omniscient omnipotent and omni benevolent God ought to be able to produce a masterpiece that is above even the appearance of inconsistency.Please brother refer to a quote above where i said they are not contradictions.
When two verses seem to disagree we look for more verses to explain the discrepancy
in the end we do realize that these verses don't disagree in such but one speaks more about another, one describes another
Don't you think if those you call "contradictions" havent been solved. There are bible scholars who have devoted their lives for this and have been able to clear these seemingly disagreeing concepts and find the explanation in the same book
The same thing is done in science
Two scientists disagree, a third, fourth, fifth scientist goes on research to find the meaning and what is the connection between the two that seemed to disagree etc
That is how you understand the word
It's not to be read as a story book
Because God himself is not a story
It requires greater revelation than just reading two scriptures, and think that is all there is to it
An omnipotent, omniscient and omni benevolent godhead creating a world that is capable of having evil and natural calamities like this while he could have created a world that free of evil is a contradiction that shows that godhead did not create this world.No it can't
Kama nyota zingeandika Mungu yupo ndiyo ingekuwa dalili ya kufanya watu waamini mungu au ndiyo ingekuwa uhakika kuwa mungu yupo?Ubishi huu ni mrefu kwa sababu tunabishania kitu ambacho hakipo.
Kwa sababu kitu kilichopo ni rahisi sana kuthibitisha kipo.
Kitu ambacho hakipo huwezi kuthibitisha kwamba kipo au hakipo kirahisi.
Ukweli kwamba kuthibitisha kwamba Mungu yupo au hayupo ni kitu kigumu unaonesha Mungu hayupo.
Angekuwepo ingekuwa rahisi sana kuthibitisha yupo bila ubishi.
Na kwa jinsi anavyopenda sifa kama mlivyomuandika kwenye vitabu vyenu, angepanga nyota ziandike angani kwamba Mungu yupo hivyo binadamu wote aminini Mungu yupo.
The fact kwamba hakufanya hivyo na anapenda sifa sana ni contradiction inayoonesha hayupo.
