Well, the new testament is contradictory concerning who gets saved or damned. Either it is by faith (Paul) or works (Synoptic Gospels, particular of Matthew) or both (Letter of James). That contradictory mass forced Christians to develop tools such as exegesis and hermeneutics in order to create coherence doctrine, even the results aren't ideal.
