Contradiction with James 1:14
This verse states that every person is tempted when they are drawn away by their own desires and enticed, suggesting a personal responsibility for lust rather than attributing it to external influences as in Psalms 106:14.
James 1:14: But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed.
Contradiction with Galatians 5:16
This verse advises to walk in the Spirit to avoid fulfilling the lust of the flesh, which offers a proactive solution contradicting the reactive narrative in Psalms 106:14.
Galatians 5:16: [This] I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. [ye...: or, fulfil not]
Contradiction with Romans 6:12
This verse instructs not to let sin reign in the mortal body to obey its lusts, suggesting human control over lust, contrasting with the depiction in Psalms 106:14 where the lust appears overpowering.
Romans 6:12: Let not sin therefore reign in your mortal body, that ye should obey it in the lusts thereof.
Contradiction with 1 Corinthians 10:13
This verse promises that God will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear and will provide a way out, contradicting the suggestion of being overwhelmed by lust in Psalms 106:14.
1 Corinthians 10:13: There hath no temptation taken you but such as is common to man: but God [is] faithful, who will not suffer you to be tempted above that ye are able; but will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that ye may be able to bear [it]. [common...: or, moderate]
Contradiction with 2 Timothy 2:22
This verse advises fleeing youthful lusts and following righteousness, implying choice and agency, which contradicts the more passive implication in Psalms 106:14.
2 Timothy 2:22: Flee also youthful lusts: but follow righteousness, faith, charity, peace, with them that call on the Lord out of a pure heart.
Paradox #1
Psalms 106:14 talks about the Israelites giving in to their desires and testing God in the desert. The moral conflict here might be the contradiction between faith and doubt. People are supposed to have faith in God's plan, but giving in to their desires shows a lack of trust and obedience, creating a conflict between their actions and beliefs.
