Bible Question:
Why does John say 'doulos'? Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you. Henceforth I call you not servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you. (Joh 15:14-15 KJVR) Why the continued use of the term by NT writers? |
Bible Answer: God's day to you, Thomas8, We were all doulos before He came, not by our choice. Now we are doulos by choice. John and others have have if they were obedient. He also called them His disciples at this time (vs 8) and before this (John 8:31, 13:35) and latter (Matt 26:18). Searcher |
