The
brightest and most astute among men are not exempted from contradictions and
inconsistencies; a classic example is a popular fable that a condemned man is
justified by God through faith, his act of believing - with the necessary
implication that an unjustified man is capable of believing in order to be
justified by God).
The
word of God plainly declares that condemned men (only such stand in need of
justification by God) are justified freely by the grace of God based solely on
the redemption of Christ; these whom God has freely justified are capable of
believing, for "the just shall live by faith." Their believing
demonstrates that they have been freely justified by God based solely on the
redemption of Christ. All of these are in perfect harmony.
However,
the "wise and prudent" have chosen to believe fables. 2Tim 4:3-4
"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but
after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching
ears; and they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned
unto fables."
2Tim
3 - KJV

¶All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine,
for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:
17
That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.
Psalm
119:89 KJV
For
ever, O LORD, thy word is settled in heaven.
Luke
10:21 KJV
In
that hour Jesus rejoiced in spirit, and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of
heaven and earth, that thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent,
and hast revealed them unto babes: even so, Father; for so it seemed good in
thy sight.
