Biblical passages for and Against same issue.
So this seems like a fun little excersize to me.
My theory is that you can pick almost any subject and find passages in the bible that both support it and condemn it. Jesus is God : John 14:7, 9 Jesus isn't God : ???? |

There's a passage where God sends lying spirits into the mouths of his prophets. The Moslems believe Jesus was a prophet. Perhaps he had one of these lying spirits in him.

Check out Don Morgan on Biblical Inconsistencies; that page gives numerous examples, like love your enemies vs. kill your enemies. I thought of listing them here, but that quickly become very long.
Also interesting is how Jesus Christ did not always practice what he preached; though he forbade name-calling, he also did a lot of that. |
