Are they Contradictory?
No program of this kind has challenged the intelligent thinking man and skeptics who quickly dismiss the Bible as a source of truth, and claims that the Bible is inaccurate and self-contradictory.

But the seemingly contradictory verses that Bro. Willy Santiago posed will surely trickle down as to who is the rightful preacher and pastor gifted with the mastery of the Word of God in the Bible. Who will stand to answer the seemingly paradoxical verse? That is the challenge of this segment to everyone!

“And thou Solomon my son, know mind: for the Lord searcheth all hearts,
and understandeth all the imaginations of the thoughts: if you seek him, he
will be found of thee; but if thou forsake him, he will cast thee off forever.”

“For the Lord will not cast off forever.”

you with guile.”

John 3:13 and II Kings 2:11
“And no man hath ascended up to heaven but he that came down from
heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.”

appeared a chariot of fire, and horses of fire, and parted them both
asunder, and Elijah went up by a whirlwind into heaven.”
