RE: Does the Bible Contradict Itself?

What is the end result of those whom believe in Jesus?
What is the end result of those whom disobey God's commands/teachings?
What happens when a believer in Jesus disobeys God's command?
What happens to those whom desire the life of this world?
What happens to a believer whom desires the life of this world?
I don't remember which verses said what where.

" What I've found is that nearly all the contradictions are apparent rather than real. But do you think I'm wrong?"
THERE it is -- your hidden assertion that you were trying to shift the burden of proof on with your strawman OP.
So you've asserted it. Time for you to defend it.

Go ahead and scan over that list. :3

Thanks Mystic. Not sure about the first three. The last two sound like these words of Christ:
Whoever finds his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.

It was yet another strawman designed to shift the burden of proof onto us. You really are turning out to be a one-trick pony.

No.
I know.
You would too if you actually used google. You would too if you actually read the thousands of bible contradictions from the link that Annik sent you. You would too if you actually READ YOUR OWN BIBLE.
But hey, carry on. Here's hoping you are actually intellectually honest with yourself to see that the thousands of contradictions that there are, cannot all be debated.

Actually, I'm the one who will bear the burden, or make an ass of myself. If someone produces two texts that appear to contradict one another, the onus will be on me to demonstrate no contradiction truly exists. It's a stump the Bible thump challenge for me. You see?

Yes, I see. And Annik handed you thousands on a silver platter, all wrapped up with a pink bow. So, get started, cupcake.

If you cared to discuss any, you would have not run away in the face of Annik's challenge.
