Holy Spirit?
Shouldn't have they been told from the Holy Spirit's perspective?
How come the other Gospels didn't record the I am's attributed to Jesus(pbuh)? John was the latest writer out of all of them.
If the Holy Spirit is God then is God responsible for telling conflicting geneologies of Jesus in Matthew 1:6-16 and in Luke 3:21-31.

No good refutations so far, has anyone who wanted to refute this looked at the different geneologies?

Why are you trying to discredit the Bible? Because people write from different perspectives does not make it conflicting. The Holy Spirit told them what to write, who are you to say "How come the other Gospels didn't record...." Because they didn't write what you want them to write therefore they are wrong. Be a Muslim, and we will be Christians, but don't tell us how to be Christians that is not your God given responsibility.

There is no conflict in the Gospels. 4 different people recorded their stories. 3 were eye witnesses and 1 researched it.
Just like you and 3 of your friends watch the same soccer game and report on it. None of you will use the same words to describe it. Yes, you may all tell the same story, even with different details, but in the end of it will tell the same story. One will have more details than the other. It does not mean that one or all are wrong or in conflict.
Matthew was written primarily to the Jew. John was written to the intellectual, Mark most probably to the people in Rome, and Luke to who ever would read it. If this statement is true (or even close), then-all four Gospels should tell the "same" story, but in a "different" way.

The bible was written by many men with different views. The bible we have is the product of uninspired men chosen by a pagan emperor who people say was Christian. These men decided on their own without inspiration which books to include and which to reject. They tried to choose the writtings that reflected their opinion of what they beleived to be true. Council of Nicea.
Since they were uninspired men picking and choosing what they wanted it is not wonder you have the contradictions we have.

Friend Jesus did not mis-represent anything, God & the Holy Ghost is the same spirit. Nor did God Misrepresent anything, You are looking at 2 followers just giving their short term letter concerning this. If you truly take the Genes from Adam down to Jesus & even from Abraham down to Jesus & even David down to Jesus, you cn see that see line, It is true that a seed line comes from the 1st born male of each seed, But that seed line is not only limited to the male Gender, Mary was a seed line from Adam, Abraham, & David. also.

When you have 4 people sharing the same account,there are always differences! Have you put that into consideration?

For those Christians about to go postal on this asker, take this challenge.
I want a DETAILED account, using ALL 4 GOSPELS, of Christ's death and resurrection. I want to know EVERYTHING.
Time of death, who helped him, who was there as he hung, his last words, who was at the tomb, who saw him after he was resurrected, etc.
As soon as you can construct that story, you let me know.
