Brother Adam, if the bible was completely accurate there would be no contradiction.
There are contradictions: and the contradictions stem from two things.
The Greek word translated eternity, everlasting, forever and ever and sometimes world; should be AGE or AGE of AGES.
The Greek word hades, translated HELL, should be GRAVE, a place of no perception.
The Greek word, Gehenna, translated HELL, should be Gehenna or Hinnom, as it is in the Old Testament.
Paul said when he was departed from this world grevious wolves would devour the sheep, Revelation warns that the scriptures will be added to or taken from, Revelation says the whole world, including the church has been deceived.
God's words DON'T FAIL, this happened when Paul departed this world.
The CHURCH (Catholic) added and subtracted form God's word, it has deceived and destroyed the flock. We as workmen are to rightly divide deception from truth. Truth always agrees with itself, deception disagrees with itself.
Put those translations in correctly and the bible doesn't contradict .
Earl, I would like to see how you would fair being a part of a "translation" team of Bible scholars from many different denominations in bringing forth a more "accurate" Bible translation. I think that you would quickly be disqualified from the team, due to the twisted way you interpret Scriptures.
Sorry to have to say it this way, but when someone's statements are disagreed with by so many strong Christian voices, I would think that one would be humble enough to take a step back and try to learn from someone besides themselves. I would try to do this if I were in such a situation.
Love you Earl, but continuing in your line of thinking seems to me to be harmful.
Sister GiGi, do you believe God's word can contradict itself.
If God SENT his Son to be Saviour of the world, but the Son failed and didn't save the world. This would make Jesus not the saviour of the world.
I know man says it's his choice and not God's choice and God will never make man do something man don't want to do because God don't want forced love.
This contradicts numerous scriptures.
Revelation 3:9 Behold, I will MAKE THEM of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lied; behold, I WILL MAKE THEM to come and worship before thy feet, and TO KNOW that I have loved thee.
Death and the grave separate God and his children.
Jesus DESTROYED DEATH and the GRAVE at the cross.
God is calling out a PRIESTHOOD, before he resurrects his children back to LIFE, these CHOSEN will govern and rule over God's creation and bring ALL his children into KNOWLEDGE of God. Then Jesus will turn the kingdom back to the Father who gave it to him and GOD WILL BE ALL IN ALL.
You can't have the Word of God saying two opposite things.
You can't have verses that say all creation will worship God and other verses saying creation will be separated and not worshipping God.
The error is in translation. Correct the error and the verses agree with each other.
Our KJV was translated from the Latin Catholic bible, the translator used the words that had been changed by the Catholic church instead of going to the original Greek and Hebrew scriptures.
Also meaning of words change, 500 years ago hell meant a covered place, the English farmers kept their potatoes in HELL (a covered place or cellar)(like a grave).
Christ tells us to rightly divide his word, seek out contradiction and correctly apply other scriptures to have complete continuity.
Repent (turn) from what you thought was correct doctrine to correct doctrine. In this walk we will have to Repent many times, because God's word is LIVING and keeps revealing himself to us.
Psalms 94:10 He that chastens the heathen, shall he NOT CORRECT? he that teacheth man knowledge SHALL MAN NO KNOW?

I kept having problems with those beliefs contradicting other scriptures.
I believe those contradictions causes you to be deceived.

I responded to you, we are saved from death and the grave.
Go back in the comments about 2 hours.
God Bless you!
Jesus came to save us from death and the grave.
God wants children, sons and daughters.
Death and the grave separate God and his children.

ALL IS GOD'S WORK man is just the vessel (body).
