In this explosive MythVision discussion, Dr. Dennis R. MacDonald tackles one of the biggest controversies in biblical scholarship: the apparent contradictions between Paul and the Synoptic Gospels.

Did Jesus teach salvation through works while Paul taught salvation through faith?
Did early Christians disagree far more than churches admit?
And why do modern apologists struggle so hard to harmonize these texts?

The conversation dives into:
• Paul vs the teachings of Jesus
• Matthew 25 and “works salvation”
• Contradictions in the Synoptic Gospels
• Bart Ehrman’s views on biblical inconsistency
• Luke, Paul, and early Christian diversity
• Why “theological coherence” may be a modern invention
• The famous “cheese and butter” analogy for Christianity

Dr. MacDonald argues that the Bible reflects diverse communities, ideologies, and theological perspectives — not a single perfectly unified system.

Watch until the end for one of the most fascinating discussions on biblical contradictions and the origins of Christianity.
