Contradiction with James 2:24
This verse emphasizes that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone, which seems to contradict Ephesians 2:10 that highlights being created for good works as a result of being God's workmanship.
James 2:24: Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
Contradiction with Romans 3:28
Here, it states that a person is justified by faith without the deeds of the law, which could contradict Ephesians 2:10 by suggesting deeds have no role in justification.
Romans 3:28: Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law.
Contradiction with Titus 3:5
This passage notes that salvation is not by works of righteousness, creating a potential contradiction with Ephesians 2:10 that discusses doing good works.
Titus 3:5: Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;
Contradiction with Galatians 2:16
It says that no one is justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ, which could contradict the emphasis on good works found in Ephesians 2:10.
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 Romans 4:5
It focuses on the idea that faith is accounted for righteousness without works, potentially opposing the Ephesians 2:10 concept of being created for good works.
Romans 4:5: But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
