Subject: Okay to question faith and the Bible? |
Bible Note: Hi again Azure. You ask. "how would you consider or understand "slave" as described in Rom 6:16-18? You don't have to answer me." I have no problem in comprehending, and wholeheartedly agreeing with what is said in the verses to which you refer. What follows is what someone else has said, which you might find helpful. What was the position of a slave in Paul’s day? Well, we must admit, a slave had no position. He had nothing. He had no rights whatsoever. He had no possessions that were his. His very life wasn’t his. He belonged, we can say, body and soul to his master. His master could do anything to him, and that is the status of a slave. You also say. "My further input is just redundancy (Prov 17:28). I believe you should know where I stand from my posts." Your modesty is most refreshing. I have found it this verse most helpful when talking about verse 1 of Psalm's 14, and 53. Shalom parpar. |
