'Free' in the Bible
Were you called while a slave? It should not be a concern to you. But if you can become free, by all means take the opportunity.
For he who is called by the Lord as a slave is the Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who is called as a free man is Christ’s slave.
A wife is bound as long as her husband is living. But if her husband dies, she is free to be married to anyone she wants—only in the Lord.
Am I not free? Am I not an apostle? Have I not seen Jesus our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord?
What then is my reward? To preach the gospel and offer it free of charge and not make full use of my authority in the gospel.
Although I am a free man and not anyone’s slave, I have made myself a slave to everyone, in order to win more people.
For we were all baptized by one Spirit into one body—whether Jews or Greeks, whether slaves or free—and we were all made to drink of one Spirit.
