To further clarify what I mean say I asked you a question in such a manner like...
"who was perfect"? after discussing about a person being completely perfect I could completely over shadow other posters simply by using "words" in the bible to fit what I believe like "perfect" pertaining to many scriptures could easily switch the discussion around in my favor if people weren't "well read" it's not good to ask such questions because it makes one sound "desperate".

the word "apostles " in the context of the gifts inept 4:11 are known as the Domata. The word "apostles is "a" not" A' . This is important because the context here is not the same as those who saw with their eyes the reason Lord. this is small "a' which is in the Greek means Messenger or the sent ones . Yes there are those who are "a" apostles today in the context of eph 4:11

this get hid away with the over emphasis on "titles" . it is better to do the work of an evangelist , prophet , pastor , teacher , and apostle then to be labeled one. One can do the work of any of these offices the Lord is calling them too and never be called it. In context to Ph 4:11 each one of these gifts can be sent .

Remember Paul told Peter that he saw Jesus resurrected just as they did. Paul was chosen by Jesus and HE spoke to Ananias in Acts 9.
Paul was the same kind of "A" Apostle as Peter and the others.
Paul was called by Jesus : acts 9:15
"But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:

Well unfortunately I don't see "Apostles" capitalized in my king james bible except in the title of acts but I did notice something else interesting...
In each introduction pertaining to an Apostle of christ they are introduced as "singular" typically as an Apostle of Christ unlike the messenger apostles who are introduced in crowds aside from at the first in acts, I think part of this shows a "distinction" because disciple Apostles were headed to places "alone" as if showing respectfully "their strength" and "faith in Jesus" where as the message apostles were often with the disciple Apostles or gathered together

the context of "A" and "a" does change the context in the word of God . and I said there are apostles today just not the same kind as Peter and Paul. those ones given in Eph 4:11contextually are " the Sent ones or Messenger . Thee Apostles were eyewitnesses to the resurrected Lord. No apostle today has even see Peter

You will have to do better than claim the Bible contradicts itself.
There’s no contradiction in scripture, just people misunderstanding what was written.
And when He had called His twelve disciples to Him, He gave them power overunclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal all kinds of sickness and all kinds of disease. 2 Now the names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zebedee, and John his brother; 3 Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Lebbaeus, whose surname was Thaddaeus; 4 Simon the Cananite, and Judas Iscariot, who also betrayed Him.
Matthew 10:1-4
This was long before His ascension.
Now it’s up to you to post your scriptures from Luke so we can examine your claim of contradiction.
