Contradiction with Ecclesiastes 3:14
This verse suggests that what God does is permanent and nothing can be added or taken away from it, which seems to contrast with the idea of giving Simon a new name.
Ecclesiastes 3:14: I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth [it], that [men] should fear before him.
Contradiction with James 1:17
This verse implies that every perfect gift is from above and does not change, which might be seen as opposing the idea of someone’s identity changing from Simon to Peter.
James 1:17: Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Contradiction with 1 Samuel 16:7

1 Samuel 16:7: But the LORD said unto Samuel, Look not on his countenance, or on the height of his stature; because I have refused him: for [the LORD seeth] not as man seeth; for man looketh on the outward appearance, but the LORD looketh on the heart. [outward...: Heb. eyes]
