If this is truly the case, shouldn't every word of St. Paul's be immediately stricken from the Holy Writ?
If not, why not?
Thanks!

"bastard" is not God's language, it is man's language, specifically English. the word God used in that passage was something else. We shouldn't be afraid of the word, especially when used properly, but we do need to be aware of its contextual meaning in our culture to determine if it's a responsible word to use or not. Most modern translations have stopped using this word for this reason because the word "bastard" is derogatory where other words can carry the meaning without the insult Translations are looking to translate the meaning of the word not lace it with insult.Some people might complain about the word Bastard being used but I just want to say this is Gods language so it can never be unclean so please respect that. The problem is Christians have been influenced by the heathens of this world and been persuaded to abandon Gods clean sacred language.
Why do you think YHWH forbade eunuchs, illegitimate and those with deformities from entering the presence of the Lord in the OT?If you believe in it fine, I'm not here to talk you out of it but God makes it clear want he wants.
Acts 10:9-23

This is not what the Hebrew word means. This is a reference to a women that is married and has a baby with someone other then her husband.Just wandering if people here think having a Bastard child is acceptable or marriage before the child's birth is essential?
I just ask OP what is the goal of calling a baby a bastard? It is as bad as pro-abortion fellas calling the unborn "it", "parasite", etc. It is kind of dehumanising the little ones.
Hello again CharismaticLady, I agree that he does this, occasionally, but the vast majority of what was written in St. Paul's Epistles is not specific in this regard. So what do we do with all of that?Paul specifies what is inspired, and what is not. He tells us when something is just His opinion, and what are commandments of the Lord.
Haha. I agree but being “unclean” wasn’t seen as a bad thing. Today some Christians read those OT passages and feel that it is a bad thing.if some jerk told me that I was unclean because I was having my period , I’d have to leave the room before he got slapped . Women have periods because we don’t go into heat like a dog would . Our ability to have sex isn’t coupled to our fertility
Of course it’s obsolete.That is all obsolete bunk.
It's true that it is history. But it is obsolete health practice.
A historical fact. Not something God needs.
the OP is deliberately trying to be crass just for clickbait and then hides behind "Gods [sic] language"Like "gay" no longer means "jolly"

So I can better understand what you mean, how bad do you believe what Paul (apparently) says on his own to be? Do you mean that any/all of this kind of teaching from the Apostle (where he tells us that he did not receive a word directly from the Lord) is always bad advice, advice that is in league with that of false prophets and prompted by the spirit of Antichrist?
If you do not, how can we tell the difference?
Thanks!

p.s. - so that you'll know where I'm coming from, I believe that the Lord intended every word of St. Paul's to be in his Epistles, that even the words that Paul says are from him, and not directly from the Lord, are still what God wanted us to have, and what He needs us to know.
