Contradiction with Galatians 5:17
This verse states that the flesh lusts against the Spirit, indicating a conflict, while Ezekiel 36:27 speaks of God causing you to walk in His statutes, implying harmony with the Spirit.
Galatians 5:17: For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.
Contradiction with Romans 7:15
Paul speaks of not doing what he wants but doing the opposite, suggesting human struggle against doing right, which contrasts with the ease and guidance in obeying God's laws implied in Ezekiel 36:27.
Romans 7:15: For that which I do I allow not: for what I would, that do I not; but what I hate, that do I. [allow: Gr. know]
Contradiction with Hebrews 10:26
This verse warns about sinning wilfully after receiving the truth, whereas Ezekiel 36:27 describes divine intervention to help follow God's statutes.
Hebrews 10:26: For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
Contradiction with Matthew 26:41
Highlights the weakness of the flesh in contrast to a willing spirit, unlike Ezekiel 36:27, which implies a divinely enabled ability to follow God's laws.
Matthew 26:41: He went away again the second time, and prayed, saying, O my Father, if this cup may not pass away from me, except I drink it, thy will be done.
Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict might arise from the idea of free will versus divine control. The verse suggests that God will influence people's behavior, which could be seen as conflicting with the belief that humans have the freedom to choose their actions independently. This tension between divine influence and personal autonomy might be seen as inconsistent or conflicting within the context of moral responsibility.
