Contradiction with John 10:30
This verse states, "I and my Father are one," suggesting unity rather than the separate roles indicated in Acts 2:36.
John 10:30: I and [my] Father are one.
Contradiction with Isaiah 44:6
"Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God," which asserts monotheism, conflicting with the distinction of Lord and Christ in Acts 2:36.
Isaiah 44:6: Thus saith the LORD the King of Israel, and his redeemer the LORD of hosts; I [am] the first, and I [am] the last; and beside me [there is] no God.
Contradiction with John 1:1
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God," implying the Word (Christ) was God, challenging Acts 2:36's claim of God making Jesus both Lord and Christ.
John 1:1: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
Contradiction with Colossians 2:9
"For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily," suggesting the full deity of Christ, which contrasts with Acts 2:36 portraying Him as appointed by God.
Colossians 2:9: For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.
Contradiction with Hebrews 13:8
"Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever," indicating unchangeability, seemingly at odds with the view of Jesus' roles being designated as in Acts 2:36.
Hebrews 13:8: Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
Paradox #1
The statement in that verse could be seen as conflicting with the idea of Jesus being eternally divine. It suggests a change in status or acknowledgment, which might seem inconsistent with the belief that Jesus has always been Lord and Messiah. However, interpretations often explain this as a matter of human recognition rather than a change in divine nature.
