A slave says there's a person who is the legal property of another and I can agree to that. I mean our bodies do belong to the Lord do they not? Has he not purchased them? Yes he has but I don't agree with the second part right here. Well I do agree that this is what a slave is but it's not you know what is referring to us as far as what we are to God. It says this, a slave is a person who's the legal property of another and is forced to obey them. That is what a slave is. Somebody who's forced to do something, forced to labor. Now God does not force us versus a servant. This is what it says in regards to a servant and I just googled it so if you google servant you may find this exact same definition. I just cut and pasted it but this is what it says. It says a servant it's a devoted and helpful follower or supporter. Now that's the difference. One is forced the other one is not. One is forced the other one does it because he wants to and as Christians we are children of God. We are not his slaves. Not only that we are his friends if you do those things which he commanded. You know so we should be friends of God. We are children of God but we are not his slaves. He does not force us to serve him but another big difference between a slave and a servant is that a slave doesn't get wages at all versus a servant he will get wages because he's working. That's what he's doing. Volunteer work or he's working to earn and he earns wages but in regards to our service towards God it's not a slave type service it's a willful service. At least that's what God wants. Let me give a few verses Ephesians 6 6 not what I service as man pleasers but as the servants of Christ doing the will of God by force. No if you know that verse it says this from the heart wanting to do it. Look at this look 14 26 if any man come to me we're just talking about this if any man come to me and hate not his father and his mother and his wife and his children his brother and his sisters yay in his own life also he cannot be my disciple. That doesn't say we believe on God is going to force us to be his disciples. God's saying look if you don't want to forsake all you can't be my disciple. You can't follow me and it even says that again in Luke 14 33 so likewise whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he has he cannot be my disciple. So it doesn't come automatic. It's not this covenant type of thinking where it says that God is controlling all of us like robots. He's forcing us to everything. He forces this guy to commit adultery. He forces this guy to commit fornication. He forces this guy to steal. He forces this guy to molest. God is just behind everything. He's forcing people to do what he wants when he wants however he wants. That's not true at all. You know we are not his slave just so you know. Now every single Bible version that I read the NL the NIV and the other ones they still have servant in there but this group of individuals want to add the word slave hoping that they don't read the other versions or at least the King James because if you just take this one it doesn't sound cool to be a slave. You're like man I got a slave for God. That doesn't sound cool at all. See God doesn't force us to do anything and in fact sometimes we seem to be begged by God to do things through his prophets. I'll give an example. First Peter 2 11 says this. Dearly beloved I beseech. I beseech. What is that? I beg. So I'm begging you guys as strangers and pilgrims abstain from fleshly lusts which war against the soul.
