101 CLEAR CONTRADICTIONS IN BIBLE
THE FOUR GOSPELS ARE DISJOINTED, THEY LACK CONTINUITY AND ARE CONTRADICTORY
By: Yahya Khalid
The four Gospel literature is a disjointed account of memoirs. They are not the words of God, Gospels lack Continuity and have contradictions amongst them. Here are a few examples:-
1. Genealogy of-- Matthew and Luke give different genealogies of Jesus. This is quite a serious matter. Matthew commences the genealogy from Abraham onwards where as Luke commences it from Adam. The two sets of genealogies differ among themselves as well as from David onwards at serial number 13. This is serious.
Note:- Qur'aan gives Jesus genealogy from his mother's side- Mary, because Jesus did not have a biological father.
2. Jesus's Childhood: Matthew describes the Jesus's childhood differently from Luke, whereas Mark does not mention it at all.
3. Timing of Last Supper and Passover:
John places Last Supper before Passover Celebrations whereas Mark and Luke put it during the Celebrations. It is strange that the memory of the same event is different to different Gospel writers.
4. Jesus's Last Spiritual Instructions:
Only John gives Jesus's Last Spiritual Instructions to his twelve disciples at the Last Supper whereas others do not mention anything about it. Why?
5. DURATION OF JESUS'S MISSION:
Matthew, Mark and Luke place it over a period of one year whereas John spreads it over two years or even more. Who is right?
6. Regarding Showing a "Sign From Heaven":
There are three different versions. Each Gospel says differently about the same event.
a). According to Matthew: Jesus says, "But no "Sign" shall be given except the Sign of Prophet Jonah (Yunas). For Jonah was in the belly of whale for 3 days and 3 nights, so will the son of man (ie, Jesus) be in the grave for 3 days and 3 nights.
Note:- According to the statements of the Bible, Jesus actually stayed in the grave for two days and 3 nights only and not 3 days and 3 nights.
b). According to Mark- Jesus says, "No Sign shall be given to this generation".
c). According to Luke: Here Jesus himself gives a sign as a miracle of food from heaven and a feast.
7. The Institution of Eucharist:
John's Gospel does not describe the Institution of Eucharist ie, the Christian's sacred communion with the spirit of Jesus by eating a small piece of bread and small quantity of wine symbolising Jesus's flesh and his blood. (An act similar to carnivorous trait of ancient African tribes.)
8. Reappearance of Jesus after Death:
Reappearance of Jesus after death is written differently by Gospel writers.
9. Prediction of Peter's Denial and Betrayal of Judas Iscariot:
They are only mentioned by Matthew and John but not by the other two.
10. ACCESSION OF JESUS TO HEAVEN:
This is only mentioned by Mark and Luke but their texts are quite different. Matthew and John do not even mention it.
Look at your corrupted gospels!
