Sermon Series: Life in Christ

Speaker: Lead Pastor Mike Vargo

Text:

“Bondservants, obey your earthly masters with fear and trembling, with a sincere heart, as you would Christ, not by the way of eye-service, as people-pleasers, but as bondservants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart, rendering service with a good will as to the Lord and not to man, knowing that whatever good anyone does, this he will receive back from the Lord, whether he is a bondservant or is free. Masters, do the same to them, and stop your threatening, knowing that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven, and that there is no partiality with him.” (Ephesians 6:5–9, ESV)

Digging Deeper:

1. Does this passage suggest that the Bible is ok or pro slavery? Explain.

2. What does it mean to work as a bondservant of Christ?

3. What does it mean to treat those you oversee in the same manner?
