Blind faith.
(i second this in most cases, how ever some see it yet still believe)
Since Christians are interested in truth they do what The Bible encourages them to do and 'prove all things.' That is, they look into things to see if there really are contradictions. When they do so they find that the contradictions melt away into nothing as they inevitably demonstrate that the person making the allegation has simply not understood the passages concerned.
So, instead of having blind faith, the Christians have 'eyes wide open' faith. They know Him in whom they have believed and they see both the unity of mind and unity of thought in the scriptures which do not contradict themselves. They also recognize and appreciate that some find it necessary to create contradictions using various methods, such as taking verses out of context, in order to bolster their belief in the fallibility of scripture.

Why don't Christian conservatives believe Jesus was a liberal?
Christian conservatives often prioritize traditional values, limited government, and personal responsibility, which align more closely with conservative political ideologies. They may interpret Jesus's teachings on personal responsibility and morality as being more aligned with conservative principles rather than liberal ones. Additionally, there is theological diversity within Christianity, and interpretations of Jesus's political or social views can vary among different Christian groups.

How do you motivate yourself to read the Bible?
Joining a bible study group is a good first start to read the Bible with a group of others. Having a mix of new and mature Christians allows the young Christians to ask questions and the mature Christians to see Bible again from a fresh perspective. Some Churches also have Bible 101 or Bible foundational lectures or short courses to help introduce the Bible and how to read it. For reading of the Bible cover to cover it is strongly recommend to use a Bible Study reading program and keeping to a schedule. You can print out a reading schedule and keep it in your bible. I found it useful with such reading plans where you check off each day's reading. Like anything you need a goal, a plan to get there, and the endurance to keep at it but the secret is to not get discouraged when you get behind. It's not uncommon to take 2 years to finish a "one-year" plan.
