Contradiction with Matthew 5:17
While John 5:45 suggests Jesus will not accuse, Matthew 5:17 shows Jesus fulfilling the law, suggesting there is an inherent judgment in his role.
Matthew 5:17: Think not that I am come to destroy the law, or the prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil.
Contradiction with Romans 8:34
John 5:45 implies Jesus does not accuse, but Romans 8:34 indicates that Jesus can intercede, implying an advocacy role rather than accusation.
Romans 8:34: Who [is] he that condemneth? [It is] Christ that died, yea rather, that is risen again, who is even at the right hand of God, who also maketh intercession for us.
Contradiction with 1 John 2:1
John 5:45 states Moses accuses, but 1 John 2:1 presents Jesus as an advocate, which shifts the focus from accusation to defense.
1 John 2:1: My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous:
Contradiction with John 3:17
John 5:45 involves accusation by Moses, but John 3:17 shows Jesus came not to condemn, highlighting a mission of salvation rather than judgment.
John 3:17: For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Contradiction with John 12:47
Contradictory to accusing, John 12:47 states Jesus did not come to judge but to save, conflicting with the role of accusation indicated in John 5:45.
John 12:47: And if any man hear my words, and believe not, I judge him not: for I came not to judge the world, but to save the world.
Paradox #1
John 5:45 may present a contradiction or conflict by suggesting that while Jesus brings a message of salvation and compassion, the verse implies that judgment or accusation will come from adherence to earlier laws or figures (like Moses). This might seem inconsistent because it contrasts the ideas of mercy and judgment, suggesting a tension between older and newer teachings.
