086: Racism and Paul
Manage episode 490309776 series 3328047
Paul says something that to modern sensibilities might be considered prejudiced. "One of their very own prophets said, Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons. 13 This testimony is true. So, rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith."
Our culture thinks such statements to be prejudiced and hateful. But is it true? As Sean and Patke dive into this topic, we would do well to ask if Paul was racist and how do such statements need to be understood and applied.
