Well I actually don't think this is a contradiction so much as I think it's an instance of modern evangelical theology being severely wrong in its reading of Paul. I don't think Paul is trying to teach that God's required standards of righteousness cannot be met by humans, I think that's a severe misreading of Paul, that Paul would have objected to vehemently, and which places Paul into contradiction with the context of his own proof-texts and with many other biblical passages.
