1 Corinthians 7:20-24 Slaves. 27 Apr 2024

1Co 7:20 Everyone should stay in whatever state he was in when he was called.
21 So, if when you were called, you were a slave,
do not think it matters -- even if you have a chance of freedom,
you should prefer to make full use of your condition as a slave.
22 You see, anyone who was called in the Lord while a slave,
is a freeman of the Lord; and in the same way,
anyone who was free when called,
is a slave of Christ.
23 You have been bought at a price;
do not be slaves now to any human being.
24 Each one of you, brothers,
is to stay before God in the state in which you were called.

Am I a slave of my present life?

I Am A Slave Of Christ

I have been bought for a price. That is what matters.

Prayer

Jesus, help me to spread the good news in the place where I live.
