In 1 Timothy 6:1–2, Paul addresses Christian bondservants and shows how even in unjust situations, believers are called to display the gospel with their lives. This sermon explores the different types of slavery in biblical and historical context, then applies Paul’s instructions to our modern workplaces, homes, and relationships. Whether under a harsh boss, a difficult family member, or a frustrating situation, Christians are called to honor others, work hard, and serve like Jesus so that God’s name and teaching are not reviled. Ultimately, we look to Christ, our Master who became a servant and gave His life for us, as the model and motivation for our own humble service.
The essence of Christianity is that our master became a servant to save us.
