Contradiction with Acts 1:7
This verse contradicts Matthew 24:14 by stating that the times and seasons of the end are not for humans to know, which contrasts with the implication that the end will come when the gospel is preached to all nations.
Acts 1:7: And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.
Contradiction with 1 Thessalonians 5:2
This verse suggests the day of the Lord will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night, which contrasts with the notion in Matthew 24:14 that a clear sign (preaching to all nations) will indicate its approach.
1 Thessalonians 5:2: For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night.
Contradiction with Matthew 24:36
This verse asserts that no one knows the day or hour of the end, not even the angels or the Son, conflicting with the idea in Matthew 24:14 that there is a specific event (the gospel being preached to all nations) signaling the end.
Matthew 24:36: But of that day and hour knoweth no [man], no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
Paradox #1
This verse suggests that spreading a particular message or belief to the whole world is necessary before a significant event can occur. The contradiction might arise from the idea that people from diverse cultures and religions might feel their own beliefs are being dismissed or undermined by this universal requirement. This can lead to a tension between respecting diverse worldviews and promoting a singular perspective.
