Do Not Become Slaves Of Men
You’ve probably heard the expression “the truth shall make you free“. Well, this isn’t truth according to your feelings or interpretations. This isn’t some “organic” or changing truth devised by mere men. It’s THE truth found in God’s word in the Bible. And God says (through Paul’s letter to the Corinthians) “do not become slaves of men“.
Mere men make up all kinds of rules for you. Don’t believe me? Just look at the United States Congress. They’re “job”, day in and day out, is to come up with more rules, or to amend current rules, or to nullify rules they determine to be inconvenient to current events.
They remind of little kids who make up the rules to a game as they go along. Little kids have a good excuse for their tiny minds. Grown men and women do not.
If you’ve been saved by the Grace of Jesus, you can still be the you God designed you to be. You don’t have to or need to become like anyone else. For obvious reasons, let me use this example…if you’re a musician, and you feel God’s calling on your heart, you can still be a musician. You don’t have to become a banker. God can use you where you’re called.
Paul wrote “he who is called in the Lord while a slave is the Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who is called while free is Christ’s slave”. That’s a metaphor for how God bought and paid for you with the blood of his Son, Jesus. So if you’re gonna be anyone’s slave, make it Jesus. But for Heaven’s sake…do not become slaves of men.
In Faith, Hope, and Love”
