Bible : Lots of Contradictions

Let Christians eager about their religion first,
then they will know how sacred Islam is.

The bible, compilation of Christians holy book.

Most of Christians believe that the origin of the bible is actually from the St. Paul of Tarsus words. Then, how could they claim that the bible is the word of God?

"Is the bible the word of God?"

Let me short-list the evidences that would make above question is answered.

FIRST (PLAGIARISM)

The plagiarism was detected in two books, Isaiah, chapter 37 and 2 King, chapter 19. Exactly the same verses. Word by word!

1 And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD.
 
2 And he sent Eliakim, who was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests covered with sackcloth, unto Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz. Click here for more.

(Isaiah, 37 : 1-38) 


1 And it came to pass, when king Hezekiah heard it, that he rent his clothes, and covered himself with sackcloth, and went into the house of the LORD. 

2 And he sent Eliakim, which was over the household, and Shebna the scribe, and the elders of the priests, covered with sackcloth, to Isaiah the prophet the son of Amoz. Click here for more.


(2 King, 19 : 1-37)




SECOND (NOT TRUSTED REVISION)


If the bible is the word of God, why God do not know the exact how old Jesus is? God, supposed to know everything because He is the only All-Knowing. The word used is "about". As we know, word "about" is used for estimation.

And Jesus himself began to be about thirty years of age, being (as was supposed) the son of Joseph, which was the son of Heli; (Luke, 3 : 23)

The bracket of "as was supposed" is thrown out from this verse, in another version of non-english bible. You can check for yourself at online bible page.


THIRD (ILLOGICAL IDEA)

The bible also said that, Lord and Satan are the same person. Is it true? Absolutely, no one can accept in a rational mind. Lord is absolutely far differ from the Satan. Satan is devil, root of all evil whereas Lord is the source of all mercy. No religion in the world said "Lord is Satan" and "Satan is Lord".

And again the anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he moved David against them to say, Go, number Israel and Judah. (2 Samuel, 24 : 1)

And Satan stood up against Israel, and provoked David to number Israel. (1 Chronicle, 21 : 1)


FOURTH (CONTRADICT FACT)

The contradict facts of number is also detected. 2000 and 3000 baths. Very different!

And it was an hand breadth thick, and the brim thereof was wrought like the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies: it contained two thousand baths. 

(1 King, 7 : 26)

And the thickness of it was an hand breadth, and the brim of it like the work of the brim of a cup, with flowers of lilies; and it received and held three thousand baths. 

(2 Chronical, 4 : 5 )

Islam is a religion distinguished on its Godliness,
Moderation, Humanity, Comprehensiveness, Static and flexibility.

FIFTH (CONTRADICT FACT)

In the same book of John, also has a contradiction. In chapter 18, it says that "lost none", meanwhile, in the previous chapter of 17, it says "none but the son".

"None" brings the value of zero. Nothing. While "none but the son" is referred to one. In mathematics, the different is very obvious, between zero and one.

That the saying might be fulfilled which He spoke, "Of those that Thou gavest Me, have I lost none." (John, 18 : 9)

While I was with them in the world, I kept them in Thy name. Those that Thou gavest Me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition, that the Scripture might be fulfilled. (John, 17 : 12)


SIXTH (CONTRADICT FACT)

And again, 4 000 and 40 000 is absolutely different!

And Solomon had four thousand stalls for horses and chariots, and twelve thousand horsemen, whom he positioned in the chariot cities and with the king at Jerusalem. (2 Chronicles, 9 : 25)

And Solomon had forty thousand stalls of horses for his chariots and twelve thousand horsemen. (1 King, 4 : 26)


SEVENTH (CONTRADICT FACT)

Once, the bible says that God didn't answer him. Second, the bible says God killed (slew) him.Which one is the correct?

Of course, if book of Samuel is correct, the book of 1 Chronicles is wrong. The book of chronicles is also a part of bible. Then if the bible is the word of God, how could the bible make mistake?

And when Saul inquired of the LORD, the LORD answered him not, neither by dreams nor by Urim nor by prophets. (1 Samuel, 28 : 6)

And he inquired not of the LORD. Therefore He slew him, and turned the kingdom over to David the son of Jesse. (1 Chronicles, 10 : 14)


EIGHTH (CONTRADICT FACT)

The inquiry once come again, about the status of Keturah. Is she Abraham's wife or just concubine?

As we know, the respectability level of a woman as a wife is definitely higher than that of concubine.

Then again Abraham took a wife, and her name was Keturah. (Genesis, 25 : 1)

Now the sons of Keturah, Abraham's concubine: she bore Zimran, and Jokshan, and Medan, and Midian, and Ishbak, and Shuah. And the sons of Jokshan: Sheba, and Dedan. (1 Chronicles, 1 : 32)


NINTH (CIRCUS ACT OF GOD)

Jesus, as one of Christian's doctrine is God. In book of Matthew, the act of Jesus seems funny, like in the circus show because he is riding two donkeys and court as well (mention : "them"--more than one items) in a time.

Can you imagine how God did the show?

6 And the disciples went and did as Jesus commanded them. 

7 And they brought the ass and the colt and put on them their clothes, and they set Him thereon. 

8 And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; and others cut down branches from the trees and strewed them in the way. 

(Matthew, 21 : 6-8)


TENTH (CONTRADICT FACT)

Moses was told by God that no man can see God, in book of Exodus :

and I will take away Mine hand, and thou shalt see My back parts, but My face shall not be seen." (Exodus, 33 : 23)

In Islam, God is consistently cannot be seen by human eyes although by any method, anywhere and any time. In the book of John also said like that, but another book of Genesis deny it.

No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him. (John, 1 : 18)


And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel [that is, The face of God]: "For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved." (Genesis, 32 : 30)


ELEVENTH (GOD CONFUSE PEOPLE)

God will never confusing people, as the bible claim in contrast :

for God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as it is in all churches of the saints. (1 Chorinthian, 14 : 33)

God confusing people?

Islam teach its believers to do loving with others.

TWELFTH (PORNOGRAPHY BOOK)

It is not suitable to recognise a book as a holy book if the pornography story is told. How a young child perception if they read about inappropriate event?


The bible also encourage its followers on how to do something unlawful such the incest and fornication?


As we are what we read, what will happen to Christians moral ethics?

1 Then went Samson to Gaza and saw there a harlot, and went in unto her. 

2 And it was told the Gazites, saying, "Samson has come hither." And they compassed him in, and lay in wait for him all night in the gate of the city, and were quiet all the night, saying, "In the morning when it is day, we shall kill him." 

(Judges, 16 : 1-2)


How to rape your own sister?!

1 And it came to pass after this that Absalom the son of David had a fair sister, whose name was Tamar; and Amnon the son of David loved her. 

2 And Amnon was so vexed that he fell sick for his sister Tamar; for she was a virgin, and Amnon thought it hard for him to do any thing to her. 

3 But Amnon had a friend whose name was Jonadab, the son of Shimeah David's brother; and Jonadab was a very subtle man. 

4 And he said unto him, "Why art thou, being the king's son, lean from day to day? Wilt thou not tell me?" And Amnon said unto him, "I love Tamar, my brother Absalom's sister." 

5 And Jonadab said unto him, "Lay thee down on thy bed and make thyself sick; and when thy father cometh to see thee, say unto him, `I pray thee, let my sister Tamar come and give me meat, and dress the meat in my sight, that I may see it and eat it at her hand.'" 

6 So Amnon lay down and made himself sick; and when the king came to see him, Amnon said unto the king, "I pray thee, let Tamar my sister come and make me a couple of cakes in my sight, that I may eat at her hand." 

 7Then David sent home to Tamar, saying, "Go now to thy brother Amnon's house, and dress him meat." 

(2 Samuel, 13 : 1-7)


THIRTEENTH (DESCRIBING GOD AS A HUMAN)

In the book of Isaiah, He himself describe on the way of His life, exactly like a person. A man. God hired razor of hair at head, leg and beard?

Is God has the same body like a man?

In the same day shall the Lord shave with a hired razor (namely, by those beyond the river, by the king of Assyria) the head and the hair of the feet, and it shall also consume the beard. (Isaiah, 7 : 20)


FOURTEENTH (EXTREME IMAGINATION OF GOD)

The smoke come out from the nostrils of God, like smokers?

The fire out of God mouth, like a dragon?

God riding cherub? (Haha. Loud of laugh!)

How could God himself make people laughing when read about Him?

9 There went up a smoke out of His nostrils, and fire out of His mouth devoured: coals were kindled by it. 

10 He bowed the heavens also, and came down; and darkness was under His feet. 

11 And He rode upon a cherub, and flew; and He was seen upon the wings of the win.

(2 Samuel, 22 : 9-11)


THE BEST SCRIPTURES

Fourteen mistakes and inappropriate ethics in various aspects of holy divine book, absolutely cannot be accepted by anyone. If the book is a man-writer, it can be excused, but not if God did it.

For this condition, Allah has says in the Quran clearly :

"Do they not ponder on the Qur'an (with care)? Had it been from other than Allah, they would surely have found therein much discrepancy."

(Surah An-Nisa', verse 84)

"Then woe to those who write the Book with their own hands, and then say: "This is from Allah" to traffic with it for a miserable price! Woe to them for what their hands do write and for the gain they make thereby."

(Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 79)
