1 Corinthians 7 21-1 Corinthians 7 24
Were you called as a slave? Do not worry about it. But if indeed you are able to be free, make the most of the opportunity.For the one who was called in the Lord as a slave is the Lord’s freedman. In the same way, the one who was called as a free person is Christ’s slave.You were bought with a price. Do not become slaves of men.In whatever situation someone was called, brothers and sisters, let him remain in it with God.
