The Perils of Paul: Bondage or Freedom?
Paul has been pulled from context, and misused to shame, reject, condemn and bring great harm to those in the LGBTQ+ community, and people who support them.
In this episode we discuss whether Paul is about legalism, law and bondage? Or is he about love, life and freedom? Or does it all depend?
We will take a closer look at the perils of Paul, and the particularly puzzling place of Paul as paramount… instead of Jesus.
Peculiar! Perplexing! :-)
