Contradiction with James 1:6
This verse emphasizes the need for unwavering faith without doubting, which might contradict Luke 22:32, where faith is strengthened despite faltering.
James 1:6: But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
Contradiction with Hebrews 11:6
This verse states that without faith it is impossible to please God, contrasting with Luke 22:32 that suggests an intervention to restore faith.
Hebrews 11:6: But without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Contradiction with Matthew 26:41
This verse advises vigilance and prayer to avoid falling into temptation, contrasting with Luke 22:32 where Jesus predicts Peter's failure and recovery.
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.
Contradiction with 2 Timothy 2:13
This verse suggests that God remains faithful even when we are not, differing from Luke 22:32's idea of personal faith restoration.
2 Timothy 2:13: If we believe not, [yet] he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.
Paradox #1
This verse highlights a potential inconsistency where Jesus predicts Peter's faith will falter, yet He expresses confidence in Peter's future strength and role in supporting others. The moral conflict here could be the tension between acknowledging human weakness and failures while simultaneously placing trust and responsibility on someone who is predicted to stumble, raising questions about accountability and trustworthiness.
