First we'll talk about why it is literally impossible for the Bible to contain actual contradictions. Then let's go to the Bible to address the following supposed contradictions in the Bible, cited by historian Marko Marina, Ph.D, at Bart Ehrman's website (https://www.bartehrman.com/contradictions-in-the-bible). 1. The Two Creation Accounts: Genesis 1:1–2:3 (cosmic, structured, 7-day creation sequence) vs. Genesis 2:4–25 (a more anthropocentric story)2. The Number of Animals on the Ark: Genesis 6:19–20 (two of every kind) vs. Genesis 7:2–3 (seven pairs of clean, two unclean)3. The Death of Saul: 1 Samuel 31:4 (fell on his sword) vs. 2 Samuel 1:10 (Amalekite killed him)4. God or Satan Inspired the Census: 2 Samuel 24:1 (God incited David) vs. 1 Chronicles 21:1 (Satan incited David)5. Jesus' Genealogy: Matthew 1:1–17 vs. Luke 3:23–38 – different names, different lineage paths6. The Voice at Jesus' Baptism: Matthew 3:17 (spoken to crowd) vs. Mark 1:11, Luke 3:22 (spoken to Jesus)7. How Many Rooster Crows? Mark 14:30 (before rooster crows twice) vs. Matthew 26:34, Luke 22:34, John 13:38 (before it crows once)8. Judas' Death: Matthew 27:5 (hanged himself) vs. Acts 1:18 (fell headlong and burst open)9. The Day Jesus Died: Synoptics: Passover day (Nisan 15) vs. John: day before Passover (Nisan 14)10. The Resurrection Visitors: Varies across Matthew 28, Mark 16, Luke 24, and John 20Sources:https://learn.ligonier.org/articles/does-last-supper-chronology-differhttps://biblehub.com/q/why_do_gospel_resurrection_details_differ.htmhttps://netbible.org/bible/Genesis+2https://biblehub.com/q/animals_on_noah's_ark.htmhttps://www.gotquestions.org/death-of-Saul.htmlhttps://defendinginerrancy.com/bible-solutions/1_Chronicles_21.1.phphttps://carm.org/if-jesus-is-god-in-flesh-why-did-he-not-inherit-original-sinhttps://www.catholic.com/magazine/online-edition/how-to-resolve-alleged-gospel-contradictionshttps://www.biblicalauthorityministries.org/2025/05/cock-doodle-one-or-two.html==============================♱ SUBSTACK: Read weekly articles to help you learn and grow: https://thethinkinstitute.substack.com/♱ CHURCH TRAINING: Bring an IMPACTFUL weekend training event to your church or ministry ➡️ https://thethink.institute/forchurchesMen: Want to become the worldview leader your family and church need?

What happens when God puts you in ministry with someone you can't stand?0:00 – Intro: Welcome back to Filthy Hope0:28 – Ness thought Jon was a jerk1:00 – The hard question2:28 – Secretly hoping for rejection4:46 – Reunited at Ravenswood5:33 – Learning in school chaplaincy7:16 –  Creative approach to ministry8:56 – The homeless man chapel service15:30 - A series of unfortunate events17:43 – Reframing life experience as giftsIn this episode of Filthy Hope, hosts Rev Ness Williams-Henke and Rev Jon Humphries reflect on the unlikely beginning of their friendship and ministry partnership. From first impressions, bruised egos, and uncomfortable questions, to shared risk-taking, creative ministry, and deep trust, they explore how God can use conflict, honesty, and “holy friction” to shape both calling and character.This episode looks at how the parts of our stories we would rather avoid, whether tension, failure, or messy humanity, can become the very ground where meaningful ministry and real friendship are formed.#FilthyHope #ChristianPodcast #FaithAndFriendship #MinistryLife #ChurchStories #MessyFaith #HolyFriction #HopeInTheFilth
