Contradiction with Matthew 5:44
Galatians 6:10 encourages doing good primarily to fellow believers, while Matthew 5:44 instructs loving and doing good to enemies, expanding the scope to include all adversaries, not just members of one's faith community.
Matthew 5:44: But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
Contradiction with Deuteronomy 15:11
Galatians 6:10 focuses on doing good "especially unto them who are of the household of faith," whereas Deuteronomy 15:11 emphasizes generosity broadly to the poor as part of societal obligation, without prioritizing believers.
Deuteronomy 15:11: For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.
Contradiction with Luke 6:27-35
Galatians 6:10 emphasizes particular regard to the household of faith when doing good, while Luke 6:27-35 emphasizes love and goodness towards all people, including those who may not reciprocate or show enmity.
Luke 6:27-35: But I say unto you which hear, Love your enemies, do good to them which hate you,
Paradox #1
Some people might see a conflict between Galatians 6:10 and other parts of the Bible that focus on faith over good deeds. For example, while Galatians 6:10 encourages doing good to everyone, other verses might emphasize that faith, not just actions, is what truly matters for salvation. This seems to suggest different focuses: one on actions and another on faith. However, many theologians believe these ideas are complementary rather than contradictory.
