I am not saying that the bible isn't true, but are there inconsistencies between authors of different books that need to be reconciled? For example, Jesus says, If they are not against me, they are for me. Yet Paul says, we should contend for the faith that was once delivered unto the saints. Should we follow Christ's command for Christian unity or Paul's command for unity of christian doctrine?
There are different teachings on divorce. Jesus says, save for the cause of fornication. Paul says an unbeliever is not not bound. Do we accept both statements as true or do we say the bible is not perfect?
Paul says, we are saved by faith not works. James says we are made righteous by our works. Who is right or are they both right? How do we reconcile these differences?
Here is a link of a lecture about this topic for those interested.
