We all face a challenge of trying to keep the faith in our faith at some point. We are often told that we should simply turn to the bible to renew our faith in God and gain security in knowing that all will be good in the end. However, many people point out that the bible’s contradictions are even more confusing than what we may be dealing with at that time.
The Confusion
Throughout the bible there are constant contradictions in the things that you will read. For instance, there are even confusing statements about the Sabbath day. At one point, it states that whoever works on the sabbath day shall be put to death, but in another area, it says that you cannot judge a person. There are parts that say that God never changes and then others say that he did change. That God does not cause temptation, but that he did temp Abraham.
Clearing Up Confusion
The bible is confusing if you do not have a strong faith in the things that you read. You have to learn how to understand it by feeling what it says rather than simply reading the words. If you can do this, you can reap the reward of gaining a better understanding of yourself and your faith. Just ask those who have true faith in it. They will tell you that everything you need to know and understand is written within the bible. You simply have to seek to find it.
