Contradiction with James 2:24
This verse states, "Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only," which contradicts Romans 5:1's emphasis on being justified by faith.
James 2:24: Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
Contradiction with Galatians 2:16
This verse explains that a person is not justified by the works of the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ, which aligns with Romans 5:1, creating an interesting juxtaposition regarding the law and faith.
Galatians 2:16: Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Contradiction with Matthew 7:21
This verse states, "Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven," suggesting the necessity of actions alongside belief, thus contrasting with the idea of being justified by faith alone in Romans 5:1.
Matthew 7:21: Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
