Contradiction with Galatians 1:8
While 1 Timothy 1:3 advises against different doctrines, this verse states that even if an apostle or angel preaches another gospel, it should be rejected, contradicting the idea of adhering strictly to existing teachings.
Galatians 1:8: But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
Contradiction with Romans 14:5
Romans 14:5 speaks to individual beliefs and personal conviction, which can contrast with the directive in 1 Timothy 1:3 to prevent divergent teachings.
Romans 14:5: One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day [alike]. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind. [fully persuaded: or, fully assured]
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 8:8-9
These verses emphasize personal freedom in beliefs and practices regarding food offered to idols, which could be seen as contradictory to 1 Timothy 1:3's stance against differing doctrines.
1 Corinthians 8:8-9: But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse. [are we the better: or, have we the more] [are we the worse: or, have we the less]
Contradiction with Mark 9:38-40
Jesus responds to his disciples about someone casting out demons in his name but not following them, saying not to stop them, thus allowing different practices, which contrasts with the instruction in 1 Timothy 1:3.
Mark 9:38-40: And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us.
Contradiction with Colossians 2:16
Paul advises not to let anyone judge you by what you eat, drink, or observe, implying individual freedom that can contradict the call in 1 Timothy 1:3 to resist differing teachings.
Colossians 2:16: Let no man therefore judge you in meat, or in drink, or in respect of an holyday, or of the new moon, or of the sabbath [days]: [in meat...: or, for eating and drinking] [respect: or, part]
