Contradiction with Matthew 11:11
This verse states that among those born of women, no one is greater than John the Baptist, suggesting a higher earthly status than implied in John 3:31.
Matthew 11:11: Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist: notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 15:47
This verse explains the first man is of the earth, earthy; the second man is the Lord from heaven, which contradicts John 3:31's claim that he who comes from heaven is above all.
1 Corinthians 15:47: The first man [is] of the earth, earthy: the second man [is] the Lord from heaven.
Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 1:9
This verse claims there is nothing new under the sun, contradicting the notion in John 3:31 that someone from above has a distinct superiority.
Ecclesiastes 1:9: The thing that hath been, it [is that] which shall be; and that which is done [is] that which shall be done: and [there is] no new [thing] under the sun.
Contradiction with Psalm 115:16
This verse states the earth has been given to the children of men, potentially contradicting the dominion implied in John 3:31 by one who comes from above.
Psalm 115:16: The heaven, [even] the heavens, [are] the LORD'S: but the earth hath he given to the children of men.
Contradiction with John 8:23
Although Jesus says he is from above and not of this world, it can be interpreted as aligning with John 3:31, yet it can also imply uniqueness that challenges the generality suggested.
John 8:23: And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
