You claim that if the "Bible says it", that's the end of the discussion. The Bible is all truths, the Bible is perfect. Same can be said for the Koran, Torah, etc. Whenever a contradiction arises, the response is usually the same.

"It was translated to English wrong". If you want to believe that, even after I've made all the relevant posts I need to in this thread, who am I to pop your bubble of blissful existence?

SOME, yes, SOME of the supposed Biblical contradictions ARE explainable. But plenty at the same time are obvious for what they are, CONTRADICTIONS.

Now the following quotes, if left alone, and with nothing being added or taken away, it's clear to see that you can't have them both ways,

1)What color was Jesus' robe?
Was it scarlet or purple? Unless the word scarlet translates to purple in either Hebrew or Greek and you can cite the source, this is a contradiction.
Matthew 27:28
And they stripped him, and put on him a scarlet robe.

Mark 15:17
And they clothed him with purple, and platted a crown of thorns, and put it about his head.

John 19:2
And the soldiers platted a crown of thorns, and put it on his head, and they put on him a purple robe.

Does your God of love for every one of his own creation enjoy and desire the killing of animal sacrifices or even just sacrifices in general or not? According to the following verses he does-

Genesis 4:4
And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering.

Genesis 8:20-21
And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar. And the Lord smelled a sweet savour.

Exodus 29:11-37
And thou shalt kill the bullock before the LORD

Leviticus 23:12-18
And you shall offer that day when you wave the sheaf an he lamb without blemish of the first year for a burnt offering to the LORD

Numbers 18:17
But the firstling of a cow, or the firstling of a sheep, or the firstling of a goat, you shall not redeem; they are holy: you shall sprinkle their blood on the altar, and shall burn their fat for an offering made by fire, for a sweet smell to the LORD

Deuteronomy 12:27
And thou shalt offer thy burnt offerings, the flesh and the blood, upon the altar of the LORD thy God: and the blood of thy sacrifices shall be poured out upon the altar of the LORD thy God, and thou shalt eat the flesh.

But then we have these 2 quotes, so what is one to believe?

Isaiah 66:3
He that killeth an ox is as if he slew a man; he that sacrificeth a lamb, as if he cut off a dog's neck; he that offereth an oblation, as if he offered swine's blood; he that burneth incense, as if he blessed an idol. Yea, they have chosen their own ways, and their soul delighteth in their abominations.

Matthew 9:13
But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

There are some quotes in the Bible that claim God may prestent himself if he wishes to people, and some that claim he has. Then there are quotes that say no man can see God and live. Which is it?

Genesis 12:7
And the LORD appeared unto Abram, and said, Unto thy seed will I give this land: and there builded he an altar unto the LORD, who appeared unto him

Genesis 17:1
And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect

Genesis 26:1-26:2
And there was a famine in the land, beside the first famine that was in the days of Abraham. And Isaac went unto Abimelech king of the Philistines unto Gerar

And the LORD appeared unto him, and said, Go not down into Egypt; dwell in the land which I shall tell thee of

Judges 13:22-13:24
And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God. But his wife said unto him, If the LORD were pleased to kill us, he would not have received a burnt offering and a meat offering at our hands, neither would he have shewed us all these things, nor would as at this time have told us such things as these. And the woman bare a son, and called his name Samson: and the child grew, and the LORD blessed him

Genesis 48:3
And Jacob said unto Joseph, God Almighty appeared unto me at Luz in the land of Canaan

Contradctions-
Exodus 33:20
There shall no man see me, and live

John 1:18
No man hath seen God at any time.

John 6:46
Not that any man hath seen the Father.

1 Timothy 6:16
1 Timothy 6:16

That's all for now, depending on how this thread goes I'll add more.
