Contradiction with Philippians 4:13
While Acts 3:2 describes a man who is unable to walk and thus depends on others, Philippians 4:13 emphasizes personal strength and ability through Christ, which indirectly contradicts the man's state of helplessness.
Philippians 4:13: I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Contradiction with Isaiah 40:31
Acts 3:2 depicts a man who has been lame all his life and requires aid, while Isaiah 40:31 states that those who hope in the Lord will renew their strength, suggesting the ability to overcome physical limitations.
Isaiah 40:31: But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew [their] strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; [and] they shall walk, and not faint. [renew: Heb. change]
Contradiction with Matthew 21:22
This verse suggests that with faith and prayer, anything can be accomplished, implying that the lame man, through faith, might be healed and walk, contradicting the situation in Acts 3:2 where he remains dependent.
Matthew 21:22: And all things, whatsoever ye shall ask in prayer, believing, ye shall receive.
Contradiction with 2 Corinthians 12:9
Acts 3:2 presents a man unable to walk, yet 2 Corinthians 12:9 suggests strength and perfection in weakness, implying that reliance on divine strength should transcend physical limitations.
2 Corinthians 12:9: And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Contradiction with Mark 10:27
Acts 3:2 shows a man in a dire, unchangeable physical state, but Mark 10:27 asserts that all things are possible with God, suggesting the possibility of his healing.
Mark 10:27: And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men [it is] impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
