Jesus owns your soul, He purchased it. If you understand that you may start to enjoy eternity right now. Eternity starts the moment your spirit is renewed.
For many are slaves to the law...still to this day.
Before Jesus slaves/servants were under the law but After Jesus slaves/servant are now friends.....free from the law under Grace.
Joh_15:15 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.
A friend is not a servant.
Question is.......under the law or under grace...which is it?
I could, but those living in darkness cannot understand 1+1 about the bible--How can they learn meat if they cannot even understand the milk?
Like at 1John 3( 10-12)-- Teaches no to slaughtering one another--- the children of the devil slaughter one another--Like in the rev war, the civil war, ww1,ww2-- All told they were heroes yet the bible condemns them into being the children of the devil--who got it right? The bible did--blind guides do not know what the bible teaches--those that listen to blind guides--do not know what the bible teaches. And this sick world is what comes out of it.
Who was the first "teacher" of the bible, using the bible, and "interpreting" from the bible?
Slavery is when you willingly become a servant to God. Those Egyptians had to give up their golden earrings because Israel had been under a covenant, and they had never been offered their freedom. A Jew will take on a slave when a person BEGS them to purchase them as willing servants, but after 7 years, the master has to offer that slave his freedom, but many people who became slaves never wanted to leave their master's house, and this thing was done so often as to have it's own laws and traditions when a slave was offered their freedom and the slave refused to go.
When the slave refuses his freedom, the master takes him to the front door of his house and he stands that slave against the door and drills a hole in his ear, and then puts an earring in his ear so all may know that the master offered the slave his freedom but the slave refused to leave.
That earring in the servants ear is there as a symbol of the master's voice, and when we see Israel wearing those earrings that had never been offered, they were a symbol of the voice of God, and then what did they do with those earrings?
They took the master's voice and created a golden calf when they went back to their former pagan ways like Christianity did.
All of the laws are written as spiritual laws between the bride and the bridegroom. The supposed bride must become a willing submissive virgin and when she enters the house of her master, she never wants to leave and she is given that golden earring where the master's voice is always present within her and she refuses to leave her master's house.
So many willing slaves refused to leave their master's house that there are all kinds of traditions made that I didn't list here.
Slavery in the bible can't be compared to any other slavery when the willing slaves never want to leave the master's house.
The master takes the willing servant and stands him against the door and drills a hole in his ear and puts an earring in his ear.
What happens next?
So many servants refused to leave their master's house that when a servant does this, their whole day is planned out in tradition, what happens to that slave next? That servant doesn't go back to the house, what happens to him next, where does he spend the day?
Every person who claims to be a bride of Christ is going to drink the cup mixed for them. There can be no doubt that they will drink the cup, and although the majority will fail this test, anyone who claims to be the bride of Christ should look into what is no doubt going to happen to them. If you claim to be the bride of Christ, the cup will tell the truth on you. If you are committing adultery against God like Israel did when they built that pagan calf, you will drink the cup just as Israel did, and what happened to them is going to happen to you, shouldn't you at least study the laws of marriage when you claim to be a bride of Christ?
At least, through study, when you stomach swells and your thigh rots, you will know why, and these are the supposed virgins of Christ who will never purchase the oil to light their way to the chamber of the bride and the bridegroom. Before they can enter into the marriage chamber, they must drink the cup.
Revelation speaks many things about this very thing, you will drink the cup mixed for you when you have been committing adultery against God by going back to pagan ways just like Israel had to learn the hard way.

Some form of earthly/physical slavery will always take place on earth of which is being addressed here.
Spiritual slavery to the law included all of humanity, to the Jew first then to the gentiles.
All were under the law be it they knew it or not.
When the dispensation of Grace came those accepting it became free. Those still holding on to the law are still slaves to the law.
