Contradiction with Romans 3:28
This verse emphasizes justification by faith without the deeds of the law, which could be seen as independent of resurrection.
Romans 3:28: Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
Contradiction with Galatians 2:16
This suggests justification comes through faith in Jesus Christ, not directly mentioning the necessity of resurrection for forgiveness.
Galatians 2:16: Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 12:7
This describes the return of the spirit to God, implying a view of afterlife without explicit need for resurrection in context of sin.
Ecclesiastes 12:7: Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.
Contradiction with Romans 10:9
Although it emphasizes resurrection for salvation, it places equal importance on the confession of faith, offering a dual path that could be seen as contradictory.
Romans 10:9: That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Contradiction with John 3:16
This focuses on belief in Jesus for eternal life, without specifying that resurrection is essential for salvation or forgiveness of sins.
John 3:16: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Paradox #1
This verse emphasizes the importance of the resurrection of Jesus for the forgiveness of sins. Some theological conflicts might arise when considering differing interpretations of resurrection or the necessity of physical resurrection for salvation. Different Christian denominations or theological perspectives might have varying views on how central this belief is to faith and salvation, potentially leading to inconsistency when compared to other interpretations of scripture that focus on different aspects of Jesus’ life and teachings.
