This episode covers the most popular contradiction claim found in John 3 where Jesus told Nicodemus that no one has ascended into heaven, but we read of Enoch and Elijah in the Old Testament being ascended into heaven.

This Contradiction was found from the Skeptics Annotated Bible, Author Steve Wells
No one has ascended into heaven. John 3:13 No man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven. Some have ascended into heaven. Enoch.
Genesis 5:24
And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; For God took him.
Hebrews 11:5
Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him.
Elijah.
2 Kings 2:11And Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.
So many know the tragic story of Cain & Able & we know Cain was punished greatly. He was cursed to be a fugitive and a wanderer for the rest of his days but soon after we read he meets a girl, settles down, raises a kid, and builds a city. Listen this week to learn just how the Cains punishment played out and how this is not a contradiction.

This Contradiction was found from the Skeptics Annotated Bible, Author Steve Wells
What was Cain's fate? Cursed to be a fugitive and a vagabond. Genesis 4:11-12 And now art thou cursed from the earth, which hath opened her mouth to receive thy brother's blood from thy hand; When thou tillest the ground, it shall not henceforth yield unto thee her strength; a fugitive and a vagabond shalt thou be in the earth. Settles down, finds love, has a son, and builds a city. Genesis 4:16-17 And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. And Cain knew his wife; and she conceived, and bare Enoch: and he builded a city, and called the name of the city, after the name of his son, Enoch.
There is a passage in the Bible that has confused many, 1st Corinthians 7:14. Many read this as saying that an unsaved spouse has salvation because their spouse has it. This leaves people with questions because this not only contradicts the rest of the Bible but it contradicts 2 more scriptures on verse 16. Listen this week and find out what this verse is saying.

Does God Know Us by Our Hearts He Does. And they prayed, and said, Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men. Acts 1:24 He knoweth the secrets of the heart. Psalm 44:21
Thou knowest my down-sitting and mine up-rising; thou understands my thought afar off. Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways. Psalm 139:2-3
He Does Not. And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no. Deuteronomy 8:2 For the Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the Lord your God with all your soul. Deuteronomy 13:3
God left him [Hezekiah], to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart. 2 Chronicles 32:31
Life can be hard, and Jesus told us if we accept Him He will give us rest. Often though it feels like that rest never comes and burdens are still there. Even later in the scriptures, we read apostles talk of persecution and hard times. If Jesus' burden is light, then why is there still a struggle? Matthew Browning joins the podcast this week to discuss Jesus' yoke and burden.

Is Jesus' Yoke Easy? Yes Matthew 11:28-30 Come unto me, all [ye] that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
For my yoke [is] easy, and my burden is light.
No John 16:33 These things I have spoken unto you, that in me ye might have peace. In the world ye shall have tribulation: but be of good cheer; I have overcome the world.
2 Timothy 3:12 Yea, and all that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.

Is Money Evil? Money is Good. Ecclesiastes 10:19 A feast is made for laughter, and wine maketh merry: but money answereth all [things].
Money is "bad" 1 Timothy 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
We are not to be people of fear and we were not given the sport of fear by God, so why is it we are commanded to fear God. Listen this week as Adam Romine & Guest Chad Wolfe explain the difference between fear and the fear of God

Do the Wicked Prosper? The Wicked Will Prosper. Job 12:6 The tabernacles of robbers prosper, and they that provoke God are secure; into whose hand God bringeth [abundantly].
Psalm 73:3-7 For I was envious at the foolish, [when] I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
For [there are] no bands in their death: but their strength [is] firm.
They [are] not in trouble [as other] men; neither are they plagued like [other] men.
Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them [as] a garment.
Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.

Do The Righteous Perish or Flourish? They will flourish. Psalm 92:12 The righteous shall flourish like the palm tree: he shall grow like a cedar in Lebanon.
They will perish. Isaiah 57:1 The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth [it] to heart: and merciful men [are] taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil [to come].
God is very clear on His feelings of idols and making an image of anything, even Himself, that is worshiped. So if He has strong feelings against it, why did he instruct for the Ark of the Covenant and the Bronz Serpent to be created.

Can We Make Graven Images
No. Exodus 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:
Deuteronomy 4:16-18 Lest ye corrupt [yourselves], and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
The likeness of any beast that [is] on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,
The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that [is] in the waters beneath the earth:
Deuteronomy 27:15 Cursed [be] the man that maketh [any] graven or molten image, an abomination unto the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and putteth [it] in [a] secret [place]. And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.
2 Kings 18:3-4 And he did [that which was] right in the sight of the LORD, according to all that David his father did.
He removed the high places, and brake the images, and cut down the groves, and brake in pieces the brasen serpent that Moses had made: for unto those days the children of Israel did burn incense to it: and he called it Nehushtan.
Yes. Exodus 25:18 And thou shalt make two cherubims [of] gold, [of] beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
Numbers 21:8 And the LORD said unto Moses, Make thee a fiery serpent, and set it upon a pole: and it shall come to pass, that every one that is bitten, when he looketh upon it, shall live.
John does not mention in his gospel that Jesus told them of His death and resurrection. All John told us, according to the KJV, they knew not the scriptures after seeing the empty tomb. But we know from Matthew, Mark, & Luke that Jesus did tell them what was going to happen. Is this a contradiction, or is it poor translation?

Did Jesus Tell the Disciples of His Death and Resurrection? Yes Matthew 20:18-19 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,
And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify [him]: and the third day he shall rise again.

Luke 18:31-33 Then he took [unto him] the twelve, and said unto them, Behold, we go up to Jerusalem, and all things that are written by the prophets concerning the Son of man shall be accomplished.

And they shall scourge [him], and put him to death: and the third day he shall rise again.
No John 20:9 For as yet they knew not the scripture, that he must rise again from the dead.

How long was the ark afloat? For seven months or so. Genesis 8:4 And the ark rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, upon the mountains of Ararat.
For at least ten months. Genesis 8:5 And the waters decreased continually until the tenth month: in the tenth [month], on the first [day] of the month, were the tops of the mountains seen.
When did Noah enter the ark? Seven days before the flood began. Genesis 7:7-10 And Noah went in, and his sons, and his wife, and his sons' wives with him, into the ark, because of the waters of the flood.
Of clean beasts, and of beasts that [are] not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
There went in two and two unto Noah into the ark, the male and the female, as God had commanded Noah.
And it came to pass after seven days, that the waters of the flood were upon the earth.
The day that the flood began. Genesis 7:11-13 In the six hundredth year of Noah's life, in the second month, the seventeenth day of the month, the same day were all the fountains of the great deep broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened.
And the rain was upon the earth forty days and forty nights.
In the selfsame day entered Noah, and Shem, and Ham, and Japheth, the sons of Noah, and Noah's wife, and the three wives of his sons with them, into the ark;
How many of each clean animal did Noah take into the ark? Two Genesis 6:19 And of every living thing of all flesh, two of every [sort] shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep [them] alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
Genesis 7:8 Of clean beasts, and of beasts that [are] not clean, and of fowls, and of every thing that creepeth upon the earth,
Seven Genesis 7:2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that [are] not clean by two, the male and his female.

Yes, certain tests are okay. Judges 6:36-40 And Gideon said unto God, If thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said,
Behold, I will put a fleece of wool in the floor; [and] if the dew be on the fleece only, and [it be] dry upon all the earth [beside], then shall I know that thou wilt save Israel by mine hand, as thou hast said.
And it was so: for he rose up early on the morrow, and thrust the fleece together, and wringed the dew out of the fleece, a bowl full of water.
And Gideon said unto God, Let not thine anger be hot against me, and I will speak but this once: let me prove, I pray thee, but this once with the fleece; let it now be dry only upon the fleece, and upon all the ground let there be dew.
And God did so that night: for it was dry upon the fleece only, and there was dew on all the ground.
1 Kings 18:36-38 And it came to pass at [the time of] the offering of the [evening] sacrifice, that Elijah the prophet came near, and said, LORD God of Abraham, Isaac, and of Israel, let it be known this day that thou [art] God in Israel, and [that] I [am] thy servant, and [that] I have done all these things at thy word.
Hear me, O LORD, hear me, that this people may know that thou [art] the LORD God, and [that] thou hast turned their heart back again.
Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that [was] in the trench.
2 Kings 20:8-11 And Hezekiah said unto Isaiah, What [shall be] the sign that the LORD will heal me, and that I shall go up into the house of the LORD the third day?
And Isaiah said, This sign shalt thou have of the LORD, that the LORD will do the thing that he hath spoken: shall the shadow go forward ten degrees, or go back ten degrees?
And Hezekiah answered, It is a light thing for the shadow to go down ten degrees: nay, but let the shadow return backward ten degrees.
And Isaiah the prophet cried unto the LORD: and he brought the shadow ten degrees backward, by which it had gone down in the dial of Ahaz.
No, God commands to not test or tempt Him. Deuteronomy 6:16 Ye shall not tempt the LORD your God, as ye tempted [him] in Massah.
Matthew 4:7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
Luke 4:12 And Jesus answering said unto him, It is said, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.

It's Good to Laugh Ecclesiastes 3:1 To every [thing there is] a season, and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
Ecclesiastes 3:4 A time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance;
Ecclesiastes 8:15 Then I commended mirth, because a man hath no better thing under the sun, than to eat, and to drink, and to be merry: for that shall abide with him of his labour the days of his life, which God giveth him under the sun.
It's Bad to Laugh Luke 6:25 Woe unto you that are full! for ye shall hunger. Woe unto you that laugh now! for ye shall mourn and weep.
Ecclesiastes 7:3-4 Sorrow [is] better than laughter: for by the sadness of the countenance the heart is made better.
The heart of the wise [is] in the house of mourning; but the heart of fools [is] in the house of mirth.
Matt and Adam take a moment to reflect on what Christmas is.

It's easy to make an opinion from a small section of the Bible on what the context is saying. So many of us do this and base a belief from one scripture and because of this we have today's "contradiction."

Where did Joseph and Mary live before Jesus? Nazareth Luke 2:1-7 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed.
([And] this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.)
And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child.
And so it was, that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered.
And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn.
Bethlehem, then moved to Nazareth Matthew 2:1-2 Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,
Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.
There are many who believe there is no Hell after death and those who have not found salvation cease to exist and in week's show, Adam, Paul, & Matt examine scripture to see if there is or is not a Hell.

Be thankful for what you have, count your blessings, and don't be jealous of what others have is how we are taught. Greatly desiring, or coveting can be seen as a very negative emotion for a Christian. The Bible defiantly advises against coveting but does give us somethings that we should covet.

Is it OK to covet? Covet. 1 Corinthians 12:31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet shew I unto you a more excellent way.
1 Corinthians 14:39 Wherefore, brethren, covet to prophesy and forbid not to speak with tongues.
Don't covet. Exodus 20:17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbor's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor anything that [is] thy neighbor's.
Deuteronomy 5:21 Neither shalt thou desire thy neighbor's wife, neither shalt thou covet thy neighbor's house, his field, or his manservant, or his maidservant, his ox, or his ass, or any [thing] that [is] thy neighbor's.
Romans 13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if [there be] any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself.
Ephesians 5:3 But fornication, and all uncleanness, or covetousness, let it not be once named among you, as becometh saints;
Colossians 3:5 Mortify therefore your members which are upon the earth; fornication, uncleanness, inordinate affection, evil concupiscence, and covetousness, which is idolatry:
Today on the show, Adam is alone in the studio and not doing a contradiction? Though debunking contradictions is his passion, he has a little devotion he wants to share.
Who hasn't heard or been told they need to be born again. It's a very common doctrine in the church but was it ever meant to be?

Today on the podcast, we explore the strange beings known as the "Sons of God" as well as what the title of Son of God means.
Have you ever wondered what your full potential is? What if we told you your potential is right up there with Jesus'? We call ourselves Children of God but is that our proper title and does it live up to what and who we are meant to be? As we debunk this contradiction we learn who God created us to be and what our full potential is.

How many sons does God have? God has only one son (Jesus). John 3:18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.
1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
Adam was also God's son. Luke 3:38 Which was [the son] of Enos, which was [the son] of Seth, which was [the son] of Adam, which was [the son] of God.
Some of God's sons had sex with women producing a race of giants. Genesis 6:2-4 That the sons of God saw the daughters of men that they [were] fair; and they took them wives of all which they chose.
And the LORD said, My spirit shall not always strive with man, for that he also [is] flesh: yet his days shall be an hundred and twenty years.
There were giants in the earth in those days; and also after that, when the sons of God came in unto the daughters of men, and they bare [children] to them, the same [became] mighty men which [were] of old, men of renown.
Satan and his companions were sons of God. Job 1:6 Now there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them.
Job 2:1 Again there was a day when the sons of God came to present themselves before the LORD, and Satan came also among them to present himself before the LORD.
God's sons were present when the universe was created. Job 38:6-7 Whereupon are the foundations thereof fastened? or who laid the corner stone thereof;
When the morning stars sang together, and all the sons of God shouted for joy?
Christians are God's sons. John 1:12 But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:
Halloween is looked down upon by many in Christian communities & that is completely understandable with how Halloween is viewed and celebrated today. But how surprised would you be that many traditions of Halloween were started by Christians?

Everyone can agree murder is the worst crime that can be committed. Every city, state, and country has laws against it. Even in war, there are laws against murder. Even self-defense will lead to jail time. With such a strick view and lack of leniency in law in current times and in the Bible towards killing someone, how were those who are considered heroes in the Bible justified for murder?

Everyone has grown up understanding the act of lying is wrong. On that point, there is a variety of understanding if and when it is okay to lie. The 10 commandments come to mind "Thou Shalt Not Lie," but does it actually say that? God commanded his people to not bear false witness (against thy neighbor) but we see a few times where heroes of the bible lied, or were misleading with the facts. Did they break a commandment, or are they justified?

Is it wrong to lie? No. God rewarded the Egyptian midwives for lying to the Pharaoh.
And the king of Egypt called for the midwives, and said unto them, Why have ye done this thing, and have saved the men-children alive? And the midwives said unto Pharaoh, Because the Hebrew women are not as the Egyptian women; for they are lively, and are delivered ere the midwives come in unto them. Therefore God dealt well with the midwives. Exodus 1:18-20 Rahab was "justified" when she lied about Joshua's spies.
And the woman [Rahab] took the two men and hid them and said thus: There came men unto me, but I wist not whence they were; and it came to pass about the time of shutting of the gate, when it was dark that the men went out; whither the men went I wot not; pursue after them quickly, for ye shall overtake them. But she had brought them up to the roof of the house and hid them with the stalks of flax. Joshua 2:4-6 Was not Rahab, the harlot, justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way?. James 2:25
David lied to Ahimelech when he said he was on the king's business. (He was King Saul's enemy at the time.) We know that God approved of this lie, since 1 Kings 15:5 says that God approved of everything David did, with the single exception of the matter of Uriah.
David said unto Ahimelech the priest, The king hath commanded me a business.... 1 Samuel 21:2 Elisha told King Benhadad that he would recover, even though God told Elisha that the king would die.
Benhadad the king of Syria was sick ... And the king said unto Hazael ... go, meet the man of God, and enquire of the LORD by him, saying, Shall I recover of this disease? Elisha said unto him, go, say unto him, Thou mayest certainly recover: howbeit the Lord hath showed me that he shall surely die. 2 Kings 8:8-10 In the Deuterocanonical book of Tobit, the angel Raphael lied to Tobias, saying "I am Azarias."
Tobias said to him: I pray thee, tell me, of what family, or what tribe art thou? And Raphael the angel answered ... I am Azarias. Tobit 5:16-18 Jesus lied when he told his family that he wasn't going to the feast, but later went "in secret."
[Jesus said] Go ye up unto this feast: I go not up yet unto this feast. ... But when his brethren were gone up, then went he also up unto the feast, not openly, but as it were in secret. John 7:8-10 Even God lies now and then by putting lying spirits in the mouths of his prophets.
And there came forth a spirit, and stood before the Lord, and said, I will persuade him ... I will go forth and be a lying spirit in the mouth of all his prophets. And he said, Thou shalt persuade him and prevail also; go forth and do so. 1 Kings 22:21-22 Yes. Thou shalt not bear false witness. Exodus 20:16 Thou shalt not raise a false report. Exodus 23:1
Keep thee far from a false matter. Exodus 23:7
Neither lie one to another. Leviticus 19:11
Neither shalt thou bear false witness. Deuteronomy 5:20
Lying lips are an abomination to the Lord. Proverbs 12:22
A righteous man hateth lying. Proverbs 13:5
Deceive not with thy lips. Proverbs 24:28
Wherefore putting away lying, speaking every man truth with his neighbor. Ephesians 4:25
Lie not one to another. Colossians 3:9
Lie not against the truth. James 3:14
All liars shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone. Revelation 21:8
And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life. Revelation 21:27
We worship the creator of this world. In seven days, God brought mankind into existence. So who does Satan think he is that he can offer the World to Jesus Himself; and why does Jesus call Satan is the leader of this world? If God is the creator and Jesus refers to Satan as the leader than who is in charge?

And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him. Genesis 5:24 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him. Hebrews 11:5
Neither did Elijah.
There appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both asunder; and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven. 2 Kings 2:11 Or Melchisedec.

The first thing anyone learns about God, young and old, is that He knows all things and sees all things. The Bible has plenty of passages to prove this. Then there are scriptures where we see God interacting and asking questions He should already know. Are there times where God misses things? Listen and find out if God really isn't all-knowing or if there is another motive.

God sees and knows all things. God knows everything.
God ... knoweth all things. 1 John 3:20 He's a mind reader.
No thought can be withholden from thee. Job 42:2 He knows the secrets of everyone's heart.
For he knoweth the secrets of the heart. Psalm 44:21 Thou, Lord, which knowest the hearts of all men. Acts 1:24
You can't hide from God. He's everywhere.
Whither shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there; if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. Psalm 139:7-8 Can any hide himself in secret places that I shall not see him? saith the Lord. Do not I fill heaven and earth? Jeremiah 23:24
His eyes are everywhere; he can see everything.
The eyes of the Lord are in every place. Proverbs 15:3 For mine eyes are upon all their ways: they are not hid from my face, neither is their iniquity hid from mine eyes. Jeremiah 16:17
There are some things that God doesn't know and can't see. God couldn't see Adam and Eve when they hid in the Garden of Eden.
And Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord, amongst the trees of the garden. And the LORD God called unto Adam, and said unto him, Where art thou? Genesis 3:8-9 After Cain killed Abel, he hid in the land of Nod from the face of God.
Behold, thou hast driven me out this day from the face of the earth; and from thy face shall I be hid. ... And Cain went out from the presence of the LORD, and dwelt in the land of Nod, on the east of Eden. Genesis 4:14-16 God came down to see the Tower of Babel. (He couldn't see it from where he was sitting.)
And they said, Go to, let us build us a city and a tower, whose top may reach unto heaven; and let us make us a name, lest we be scattered abroad upon the face of the whole earth. And the Lord came down to see the city and the tower. Genesis 11:4-5 When God and his friends visited Abraham, they didn't know where Sarah was.
The LORD appeared unto him [Abraham] in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day; And he lift up his eyes and looked, and, lo, three men stood by him. ... And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.Genesis 18:1-9 As God pondered murdering everyone in Sodom and Gomorrah, he asked himself, "Shall I hide from Abraham the thing that I do?"
And the LORD said, Shall I hide from Abraham that thing which I do? Genesis 18:17 God had to come down to Sodom to see if the Sodomites were as bad as he'd heard.
And the Lord said, Because the cry of Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grievous, I will go down now and see whether they have done altogether according to the cry of it, which is come unto me; and, if not, I will know. Genesis 18:20-21 God didn't know that Abraham feared God until Abraham showed his willingness to murder his son for God.
For now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from me. Genesis 22:12 After God lost a wrestling match with Jacob, he asked Jacob his name. (God didn't know who he was wrestling with.)
And he [God] said unto him [Jacob], What is thy name? And he said, Jacob. And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.... And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face. Genesis 32:27-30 Before opening the mouth of Balaam's ass (Numbers 22:28-20), he asked Balaam who were the men that were with him.
And God came unto Balaam, and said, What men are these with thee? Numbers 22:9 God led the Israelites for forty years (on a trip that should have taken a few weeks) so that he could know what was in their hearts.
God led thee these forty years in the wilderness ... to know what what in thine heart. Deuteronomy 8:2 If a prophet or dreamer of dreams tells you to worship other gods. Kill him. God sends guys like that every now and then to see if you love him enough.
If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul. ... And that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams, shall be put to death. The Lord your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the Lord your God. Deuteronomy 13:3 God has tested Hezekiah to see what is in his heart.
God left him [Hezekiah], to try him, that he might know all that was in his heart. 2 Chronicles 32:31 Before God and Satan played their cruel game with the lives of Job and his family, God asked Satan what he'd been up to lately.
And the Lord said unto Satan, Whence comest thou? Then Satan answered the Lord, and said, from going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it. Job 1:7, 2:2 The Israelites set up kings and princes without God's knowledge.
They [the Israelites] have set up kings, but not by me: they have made princes, and I knew it not. Hosea 8:4 Jonah tried to hide himself from the presence of the Lord by sailing to Tarshish. But God sent a storm that scared the sailors, who knew that Jonah was running away from God's presence.
But Jonah rose up to flee unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD, and went down to Joppa; and he found a ship going to Tarshish: so he paid the fare thereof, and went down into it, to go with them unto Tarshish from the presence of the LORD. But the LORD sent out a great wind into the sea, and there was a mighty tempest in the sea, so that the ship was like to be broken. ... Then were the men exceedingly afraid, and said unto him. Why hast thou done this? For the men knew that he fled from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them. Jonah 1:3-10
We are taught to follow our hearts and persure our passions and to trust what we see truth is, is truth. Is this an acceptable traight of a christian? Should we determine ourselves what is right and wrong and should we persue our dreams and let our passions lead us?

Ecclesiastes 11:9 Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these [things] God will bring thee into judgment.
We should not follow our heart and eyes. Numbers 15:39 And it shall be unto you for a fringe, that ye may look upon it, and remember all the commandments of the LORD, and do them; and that ye seek not after your own heart and your own eyes, after which ye use to go a whoring:
Proverbs 28:26 He that trusteth in his own heart is a fool: but whoso walketh wisely, he shall be delivered.
Are we to be concerned about other "gods." Through history, people have worshiped idols and deities and Apostle Paul expressed his concern for them? Paul seems relaxed and thinks it's no big deal at first, but further reading in his letter to the Corinthians he shows more concern.

Is it OK to eat meat sacrificed to other gods? Sure, a little meat never hurt anybody. Besides, the other gods don't exist. 1 Corinthians 6:13 Meats for the belly, and the belly for meats: but God shall destroy both it and them. Now the body [is] not for fornication, but for the Lord; and the Lord for the body.
1 Corinthians 8:4-8 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol [is] nothing in the world, and that [there is] none other God but one.
For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
But to us [there is but] one God, the Father, of whom [are] all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom [are] all things, and we by him.
Howbeit [there is] not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat [it] as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
1 Corinthians 10:25 Whatsoever is sold in the shambles, [that] eat, asking no question for conscience sake:
No, the other gods are devils. 1 Corinthians 10:20-21 But I [say], that the things which the Gentiles sacrifice, they sacrifice to devils, and not to God: and I would not that ye should have fellowship with devils.
Ye cannot drink the cup of the Lord, and the cup of devils: ye cannot be partakers of the Lord's table, and of the table of devils.
The Bible encourages believers to seek God and He will be found. This does not mean physically but something much deeper. When we need encouragement, love, acceptance, peace, joy, salvation, a friend, a father, we can reach out to God for these and God has always reminded His people to do so. But then we have scriptures like the ones in Psalms, where the writer felt lonely, sad, depressed and they reached out to God but felt like they were being ignored. Is God not holding up to His end of the deal or is there something much deeper going on?

Can God be found? God will be found by those who seek Him. Proverbs 2:3-5 Yea, if thou criest after knowledge, [and] liftest up thy voice for understanding;
If thou seekest her as silver, and searchest for her as [for] hid treasures;
Then shalt thou understand the fear of the LORD, and find the knowledge of God.
Proverbs 8:17 I love them that love me; and those that seek me early shall find me.
Matthew 7:8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
Luke 11:9-10 And I say unto you, Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.
For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened.
God will not be found by those who seek Him. Psalm 18:41 They cried, but [there was] none to save [them: even] unto the LORD, but he answered them not.
Proverbs 1:28 Then shall they call upon me, but I will not answer; they shall seek me early, but they shall not find me:
Lamentations 3:8 Also when I cry and shout, he shutteth out my prayer.
Lamentations 3:44 Thou hast covered thyself with a cloud, that [our] prayer should not pass through.
Luke 13:24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
The Apostle Paul taught in his letter to the Romans, works will not justify you but faith will like Abraham. James, the brother of Jesus, tells the church in his letter that it was works that justified Abraham. It seems like Paul and James don't agree on what justified Abraham as a righteous man and we may have a true contradiction. But one question we have to ask ourselves, are Paul and James talking about the same kind of works?

"Contradicting" Scriptues
He was justified by faith. Romans 4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath [whereof] to glory; but not before God.
He was justified by works. James 2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?
A very well know trait of God is love and the Bible clarifies that not only does He love, but He is Love. Every minister has spoken on God's love and we read time and time again in the Bible where God shows His love. But what about when God says he hates someone and no longer loves them. Can a God who is love hate as well?

Does God love everyone? Yes, he loves everyone. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
1 John 4:8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
1 John 4:16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
No, he hates some people. Leviticus 20:23 And ye shall not walk in the manners of the nation, which I cast out before you: for they committed all these things, and therefore I abhorred them.
Psalm 5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.
Psalm 11:5 The LORD trieth the righteous: but the wicked and him that loveth violence his soul hateth.
Proverbs 6:16 These six [things] doth the LORD hate: yea, seven [are] an abomination unto him:
Hosea 9:15 All their wickedness [is] in Gilgal: for there I hated them: for the wickedness of their doings I will drive them out of mine house, I will love them no more: all their princes [are] revolters.
Malachi 1:3 And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness.
Romans 9:13 As it is written, Jacob have I loved, but Esau have I hated.
One theme we pick up right away from reading the Bible is Love. Love God, love one another, and Jesus even copares hate to murder. Then why did Jesus say we are to hate our family to follow him? Is this real contradiction?_____________________________________________________________

"Contradiction" Should we love or hate others? We should love others. Leviticus 19:17 Thou shalt not hate thy brother in thine heart: thou shalt in any wise rebuke thy neighbour, and not suffer sin upon him.
1 John 3:15 Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him.
1 John 4:20-21 If a man say, I love God, and hateth his brother, he is a liar: for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen, how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
And this commandment have we from him, That he who loveth God love his brother also.
We should hate some people. Luke 14:26 If any [man] come to me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be my disciple.
This week, Paul takes a deeper look on sin and how it effects us personaly and those around us.

Week two on the topic prayer and we discuss if it's okay to request our needs and wants for ourselves and others in prayer. Everyone feels awkward asking for things in prayer and maybe guilty to some degree, so what does the Bible have to say?

This week's "contradicting" verses Should you pray for everyone? Yes, you should pray for everyone. 1 Timothy 2:1 I exhort therefore, that, first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions, [and] giving of thanks, be made for all men;
No, there are some people you shouldn't pray for. Jeremiah 7:16 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up cry nor prayer for them, neither make intercession to me: for I will not hear thee.
Jeremiah 11:14 Therefore pray not thou for this people, neither lift up a cry or prayer for them: for I will not hear [them] in the time that they cry unto me for their trouble.
Is it okay to ask for things while praying? Importunity in prayer commanded Luke 8:5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
Luke 8:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
Importunity in prayer condemned Matthew 6:7-8 But when ye pray, use not vain repetitions, as the heathen [do]: for they think that they shall be heard for their much speaking.
Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ye ask him.
Prayer is an essential part of Christian living. It is our direct connection to God. But, have we been doing it wrong? Do we even know how to pray? Should we pray in front of others?

Yes, Jesus taught them how to pray. Matthew 6:9-13 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.
Thy kingdom come. Thy will be done in earth, as [it is] in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
No, they don't know how to pray. Romans 8:26 Likewise the Spirit also helpeth our infirmities: for we know not what we should pray for as we ought: but the Spirit itself maketh intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered.
Christians should not pray in public. Matthew 6:5-6 And when thou prayest, thou shalt not be as the hypocrites [are]: for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and in the corners of the streets, that they may be seen of men. Verily I say unto you, They have their reward.
But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.
Christians should pray in public. John 11:41-42 Then they took away the stone [from the place] where the dead was laid. And Jesus lifted up [his] eyes, and said, Father, I thank thee that thou hast heard me.
And I knew that thou hearest me always: but because of the people which stand by I said [it], that they may believe that thou hast sent me.
1 Timothy 2:8 I will therefore that men pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.
So many doubt creation and use the Bible to try and disprove it. This week, Adam goes over 5 creation "contradictions" to show that Moses was more trying to get a point across and not so much telling the Hebrew people of our origins.

Where did the beast come from?
Water
Genesis 1:20
And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl [that] may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
Ground
Genesis 2:19
And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.
Where did the birds come from?
From the waters.
Genesis 1:20-21
And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl [that] may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.
And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.
From the ground.
Genesis 2:19
And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.
Which came first, man or animals?
After the other animals
Genesis 1:25-27
And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and everything that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.
And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
Before the other animals
Genesis 2:18-19
And the LORD God said, [It is] not good that the man should be alone; I will make him an help meet for him.
And out of the ground the LORD God formed every beast of the field, and every fowl of the air; and brought [them] unto Adam to see what he would call them: and whatsoever Adam called every living creature, that [was] the name thereof.
Which came first, plants or man?
Plants were created before humans.
Genesis 1:11-13
And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, [and] the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed [is] in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
And the earth brought forth grass, [and] herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed [was] in itself, after his kind: and God saw that [it was] good.
And the evening and the morning were the third day.
Plants were created after humans.
Genesis 2:4-9
These [are] the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens,
And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the LORD God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and [there was] not a man to till the ground.
But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.
And the LORD God formed man [of] the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.
And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.
And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.
When was Eve Created?
At the same time as Adam.
Genesis 1:27
So God created man in his [own] image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.
After Adam and all the animals were created.
Genesis 2:20-22
And Adam gave names to all cattle, and to the fowl of the air, and to every beast of the field; but for Adam there was not found an help meet for him.
And the LORD God caused a deep sleep to fall upon Adam, and he slept: and he took one of his ribs, and closed up the flesh instead thereof;
And the rib, which the LORD God had taken from man, made he a woman, and brought her unto the man.
Has God wrote out our future and no matter our efforts, the end is going to be what it is set to be. Is everything we do to avoid eternal damnation in vain for some. There are people who believe that God has already chosen those who will ascend to heaven and be cast into hell, rather or not they have repented and live to God's standard. This week, we look at the scriptures that read as if God is keeping some people out of Heaven.

God wants everyone to go to heaven. 1 Timothy 2:3-4 For this [is] good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour;
Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth.
2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
God wants some to go to hell. Proverbs 16:4 The LORD hath made all [things] for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil.
John 12:40 He hath blinded their eyes, and hardened their heart; that they should not see with [their] eyes, nor understand with [their] heart, and be converted, and I should heal them.
Romans 9:18 Therefore hath he mercy on whom he will [have mercy], and whom he will he hardeneth.
2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 And for this cause God shall send them strong delusion, that they should believe a lie:
That they all might be damned who believed not the truth, but had pleasure in unrighteousness.
Last week, we talked about the importance of bringing up hot topic issues in the church and why it is important. This week, we will be discussing the approach we should take outside of church.

We've spent weeks discussing "contradictions" in and in this episode, we decided to discuss what we do when society is contradicting what the word of God says. There are a lot of hot topic issues in the world today and in part one, we will discuss the importance of talking about these in church and to our families.

Are we held responsible for others sins? Are we affected by them? Does this mean we are to blame for our own sins?

No one is without sin. 1 Kings 8:46 If they sin against thee, (for [there is] no man that sinneth not,) and thou be angry with them, and deliver them to the enemy, so that they carry them away captives unto the land of the enemy, far or near;

Proverbs 20:9 Who can say, I have made my heart clean, I am pure from my sin?
Ecclesiastes 7:20 For [there is] not a just man upon earth, that doeth good, and sinneth not.
Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.
Christians are sinless. (And so are some non-christians.) Romans 5:14 Nevertheless death reigned from Adam to Moses, even over them that had not sinned after the similitude of Adam's transgression, who is the figure of him that was to come.
1 John 3:6 Whosoever abideth in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.
1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.
3 John 1:11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.
We begin with a series of episodes concerning sin with an episode exploring if God does forgive sins and is there an unforgivable one. Can you believe it, this is actually a claim of contradiction.

Does God Forgive Sins? Yes 2 Chronicles 7:14 If my people, which are called by my name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.
Jeremiah 31:34 And they shall teach no more every man his neighbour, and every man his brother, saying, Know the LORD: for they shall all know me, from the least of them unto the greatest of them, saith the LORD: for I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.
1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.
No Joshua 24:19 And Joshua said unto the people, Ye cannot serve the LORD: for he [is] an holy God; he [is] a jealous God; he will not forgive your transgressions nor your sins.
Is there an unforgivable sin? Yes. Matthew 12:31-32 Wherefore I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall be forgiven unto men: but the blasphemy [against] the [Holy] Ghost shall not be forgiven unto men.
And whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it shall not be forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the [world] to come.
Mark 3:29 But he that shall blaspheme against the Holy Ghost hath never forgiveness, but is in danger of eternal damnation:
Luke 12:10 And whosoever shall speak a word against the Son of man, it shall be forgiven him: but unto him that blasphemeth against the Holy Ghost it shall not be forgiven.
No. Acts 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Paul is back and he gives us an overview of his mission trip and the work his mission is doing in Guatemala. The events from this recent trip are sure to encourage and enlighten you on the need in Guatemala.

Looking over these claimed contradictions can sometimes become intimidating, so it's good to find some that are very petty and clearly do not contradict each other without any research. It helps remind us how every claim to inconsistency is just ridiculous as the 3 Adam covers in this episode today.

Who killed Goliath? David killed him twice. (Once with a sling and once with a sword.) 1 Samuel 17:49-50 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang [it], and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.
So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but [there was] no sword in the hand of David.
1 Samuel 21:8-9 And David said unto Ahimelech, And is there not here under thine hand spear or sword? for I have neither brought my sword nor my weapons with me, because the king's business required haste.
And the priest said, The sword of Goliath the Philistine, whom thou slewest in the valley of Elah, behold, it [is here] wrapped in a cloth behind the ephod: if thou wilt take that, take [it]: for [there is] no other save that here. And David said, [There is] none like that; give it me.
Elhanan. 2 Samuel 21:19 And there was again a battle in Gob with the Philistines, where Elhanan the son of Jaare-oregim, a Beth-lehemite, slew [the brother of] Goliath the Gittite, the staff of whose spear [was] like a weaver's beam.
How did David kill Goliath? With a sling. 1 Samuel 17:49-50 And David put his hand in his bag, and took thence a stone, and slang [it], and smote the Philistine in his forehead, that the stone sunk into his forehead; and he fell upon his face to the earth.
So David prevailed over the Philistine with a sling and with a stone, and smote the Philistine, and slew him; but [there was] no sword in the hand of David.
With a sword. 1 Samuel 17:51 Therefore David ran, and stood upon the Philistine, and took his sword, and drew it out of the sheath thereof, and slew him, and cut off his head therewith. And when the Philistines saw their champion was dead, they fled.
Was David a man of war before he fought Goliath? Yes 1 Samuel 16:18 Then answered one of the servants, and said, Behold, I have seen a son of Jesse the Beth-lehemite, [that is] cunning in playing, and a mighty valiant man, and a man of war, and prudent in matters, and a comely person, and the LORD [is] with him.
No 1 Samuel 17:33 And Saul said to David, Thou art not able to go against this Philistine to fight with him: for thou [art but] a youth, and he a man of war from his youth.
We continue our study into if God has anything to do with evil and this week, we discuss if God creates evil. It's one thing for him to control the evil created by others, but to create and cause evil Himself. Does the Bible really say this, or was there some misinterpretation?

We covered some troubling stories in episode one of our two part of comparing God in the OT and in the NT, and this episode, Adam examines two more troubling accounts where God appears to use evil spirits to bring the downfall of two kings. IS this something we expect our God to do, or is there a misunderstanding?

Part 1 of 2 of this series, Paul and Adam discuss the common misrepresentation of God in the Old Testament as being an Angry, Bitter, and Hatful God compared to His attitude in the New Testament. They examine incidents in The Bible where God seemed to be extra cruel and harsh and why He did what how it was a loving, merciful God who did these actions

This week, Paul and Adam compare the scriptures used to suggest that God is the author of confusion. Apostle Paul says He is not (or did he realy), but would the people that attempted to build the tower of Babel agree?______________________________________________________________

God does cause confusion Genesis 11:7-9 Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another's speech.
So the LORD scattered them abroad from thence upon the face of all the earth: and they left off to build the city.
Therefore is the name of it called Babel; because the LORD did there confound the language of all the earth: and from thence did the LORD scatter them abroad upon the face of all the earth.
1 Corinthians 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise, and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
God does not cause confusion 1 Corinthians 14:33 For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints.
In this episode, we explore the "inconsistency" in the Bible where God commands us to be Holy, but then the Bible says only God is Holy. Can we be Holy as well? How do we become Holy and what makes us Holy?

Only God is Holy Revelation 15:4 Who shall not fear thee, O Lord, and glorify thy name? for [thou] only [art] holy: for all nations shall come and worship before thee; for thy judgments are made manifest.
Others are Holy too. Exodus 22:31 And ye shall be holy men unto me: neither shall ye eat [any] flesh [that is] torn of beasts in the field; ye shall cast it to the dogs.
Leviticus 11:44-45 For I [am] the LORD your God: ye shall therefore sanctify yourselves, and ye shall be holy; for I [am] holy: neither shall ye defile yourselves with any manner of creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.
For I [am] the LORD that bringeth you up out of the land of Egypt, to be your God: ye shall therefore be holy, for I [am] holy.
Leviticus 19:2 Speak unto all the congregation of the children of Israel, and say unto them, Ye shall be holy: for I the LORD your God [am] holy.
Leviticus 20:7 Sanctify yourselves therefore, and be ye holy: for I [am] the LORD your God.
Deuteronomy 7:6 For thou [art] an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that [are] upon the face of the earth.
Isaiah 4:3 And it shall come to pass, [that he that is] left in Zion, and [he that] remaineth in Jerusalem, shall be called holy, [even] every one that is written among the living in Jerusalem:
Psalm 16:10 For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.
Psalm 86:2 Preserve my soul; for I [am] holy: O thou my God, save thy servant that trusteth in thee.
Luke 2:23 (As it is written in the law of the Lord, Every male that openeth the womb shall be called holy to the Lord;)
1 Corinthians 7:14 For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.
Revelation 22:11 He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.
Our most edgy episode that will ever be broadcasted. Once again, we find that our God's character is challenged in these "contradicting" scriptures. Does our God have a potty mouth? Doesn't scripture say that God only uses clean speech? Has God ever said anything that would make a sailor blush? Well, maybe not a sailor, but you won't see these scriptures on the back of a t-shirt.

Egyptian Creation Myth Video mentioned in this episode.
Scriptures read in this Episode and how they "contradict" one other.
Does God work on the Sabbath No, He does not
Genesis 2:1-3 (AMP) - So the heavens and the earth were completed, and all their hosts. 2 And by the seventh day God completed His work which He had done, and He rested on the seventh day from all His work which He had done. 3 So God blessed the seventh day and sanctified it, because in it He rested from all His work which He had created and done.
Yes, He does
John 5:16-17(AMP) - For this reason, the Jews began to persecute Jesus continually because He was doing these things on the Sabbath. 17 But Jesus answered them, “My Father has been working until now, and I too am working.”
Does God Sleep? He never sleeps
Psalms 121: 3-4 (AMP) -3 He will not allow your foot to slip; He who keeps you will not slumber. 4 Behold, He who keeps Israel will neither slumber [briefly] nor sleep [soundly].
He sometimes sleeps
Psalms 44: 23 (AMP) - Awake! Why do You sleep, O Lord? Awaken, do not reject us forever.
This week, Adam Romine examines the claims of inconsistency in 1st Samuel 21:1, compared to Matthew 12: 3-4, Mark 2:25-26, & Luke 6:3-4. Did the Biblical authors get this wrong? Did Jesus misquote 1st Samuel? Though the word for word, these scriptures appear to contradict themselves, Listen and find out how Jesus was using His wit and to proclaim His Lordship & teach that generosity is greater than ritual.

Scriptures read in this Episode and how they "contradict" one other.
David Was in Nob Alone 1st Samuel 21:1 (AMP) - 1Then David went to Nob to Ahimelech, the priest; and Ahimelech came trembling [in fear] to meet David and said to him, “Why are you alone, and no one with you?”
David Was With Others Matthew 12:3-4 (AMP) - 3 He said to them, “Have you not read [in the Scriptures] what David did when he was hungry, he and those who accompanied him— 4 how he went into the house of God, and they ate the consecrated bread, which was not lawful for him to eat nor for those with him, but for the priests only?
Mark 2:25-26 (AMP) - 25 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read [in the Scriptures] what David did when he was in need and was hungry, he and his companions;26 how he went into the house of God in the time of Abiathar, the high priest, and ate the sacred bread, which is not lawful for anyone but the priests to eat, and how he also gave it to the men who were with him?”
Luke 6:3-4 (AMP) - 3 Jesus replied to them, “Have you not even read [in the Scriptures] what David did when he was hungry, he and those who were with him—4 how he went into the house of God, and took and ate the consecrated bread, which is not lawful [for anyone] to eat except the priests alone, and [how he also] gave it to the men who were with him?”
