Contradiction with John 3:16
This verse emphasizes God's love and salvation for the world, which contrasts with the idea of condemnation or being "woe unto that man" found in Mark 14:21 regarding Judas' betrayal.
John 3:16: For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Contradiction with Romans 8:1
This verse states that there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, opposing Mark 14:21's pronouncement of woe to the betrayer.
Romans 8:1: [There is] therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.
Contradiction with 2 Peter 3:9
This verse suggests God's desire for everyone to come to repentance, which seems at odds with the notion of predetermined woe and betrayal in Mark 14:21.
2 Peter 3:9: The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Contradiction with Matthew 11:28
This verse invites all who are weary to come to Jesus for rest, which contrasts with the severe judgment implied in Mark 14:21 for the betrayer.
Matthew 11:28: Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Contradiction with Ezekiel 18:23
This verse declares that God takes no pleasure in the death of the wicked, contrasting with the inevitable destruction implied in Mark 14:21.
Ezekiel 18:23: Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: [and] not that he should return from his ways, and live?
Paradox #1
The contradiction or conflict in Mark 14:21 could be seen in the idea of free will versus predestination. The verse suggests that certain events, like betrayal, are destined to happen, which might conflict with the belief that people have the freedom to choose their actions. This raises questions about responsibility and accountability if actions are predetermined.
