Come out of her, My people,
Revelation 14:8/18:4
There seems to be "Cursing out of Paul" heard on the Streets of Babylon....
"St. Stephen is led by Senior Pastor Dr. Kevin Cosby. According to his church bio, he is “He is one of our nation’s most influential leaders: He was inducted into the Gallery of Great Black Kentuckians at the Kentucky State Capitol…and was inducted into the Martin Luther King, Jr. Board of Preachers of Morehouse College.”
Two weeks ago, he preached a message titled Slavery and the Bible where he criticizes the Apostle Paul for his behavior and statement in the book of Philemon, declaring that the Apostle Paul can “go to
hell” for all the “problematic and antithetical texts in the bible” that he wrote.
He continues:
"Salvation is not going to heaven. Salvation has to be deliverance from things that oppress people. Deliverance from hatred, deliverance from sexism, racism, the isms, that’s what salvation is. Heaven will take care of itself- God is concerned about how we treat each other. Thy kingdom come, thy will be done.
…And the question is, when you look at those Paul passages about slaves being obedient to their masters, that’s a penny." (he earlier said that some Bible verses were valuable, worth a “quarter”, and others near worthless, a “penny”).
"In fact, it’s such a penny and so contradictory to the themes of Jesus, I can say I don’t even look at them.
And I can say, “go to hell” Paul, about those slave verses.”
