Contradiction with John 1:14
This verse states that Jesus is the Word made flesh, emphasizing his divine nature, contrasting with Luke 4:3 where the tempter questions Jesus' divine sonship by suggesting he should turn stone into bread if He is the Son of God.
John 1:14: And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Contradiction with Philippians 2:6
Here, it is expressed that Jesus, being in the form of God, did not consider equality with God as something to be grasped, which contrasts with Luke 4:3's temptation implying a challenge to prove His divine authority.
Philippians 2:6: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God:
Contradiction with James 1:13
This verse indicates God cannot be tempted with evil, and being the Son of God, Jesus being tempted in Luke 4:3 might seem contradictory unless understood in the context of his human experience.
James 1:13: Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, neither tempteth he any man: [evil: or, evils]
Paradox #1
Theological discussions around "Luke 4:3" often revolve around the nature of Jesus and the temptations he faced. Some might see a contradiction in how Jesus, being fully divine, could be tempted or why He would need to prove His identity through miracles when He was already the Son of God. This touches on deeper themes about the nature of Jesus' divinity and humanity.
