Contradiction with John 14:6
States that Jesus is the way, the truth, and the life, which can imply a more exclusive access to faith, conflicting with Felix's general inquiry without apparent immediate conversion.
John 14:6: Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 1:18
Suggests that the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, which could contrast Felix's intellectual or non-committal investigation into faith.
1 Corinthians 1:18: For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 2:14
Indicates that the natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, implying potential ineffectiveness of Felix's hearing if not spiritually discerned.
1 Corinthians 2:14: But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know [them], because they are spiritually discerned.
Contradiction with 2 Corinthians 4:4
Mentions that the god of this world has blinded the minds of unbelievers, which could contrast with Felix having an open hearing.
2 Corinthians 4:4: In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.
Contradiction with Matthew 13:13-15
Explains that hearing doesn't always lead to understanding, posing a contradiction if Felix's hearing doesn't result in genuine faith or understanding.
Matthew 13:13-15: Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
Contradiction with Romans 1:21
Notes that although they knew God, they neither glorified him nor gave thanks, which parallels potential lack of Felix's true faith despite hearing.
Romans 1:21: Because that, when they knew God, they glorified [him] not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
