(my notes)
Ephesians 6:5-9
What are my responsibilities as a Christian in the market place?
SLAVES
Rome at that time
3 slaves for every free man
Or about 20,000 slaves
60,000,000 in the whole empire
Aristotle said that there could be no friendship between a slave and a master for they have nothig in common. The slave is no better than a beast except that it can talk.
In this situation, the gospel of love enters the society.
1 Cor 12:13
Gal 3:26-28
Currently, we are usually employers and employees.
1. Don't rebel in your workplace.
2. Do good work.
The amount of pay has no connection to the quality of your work. Because quality goes with your attitude.
The secret of good workmanship is to do it for the Lord.
3. Do expect God's blessing on your work.
Verse 8 know that the Lord will reward.
MASTERS
1. Do treat people properly.
2. Do not be abusive.
3. Do not be unreasonable in your demands.
A Christian must be the best employee in the workplace. His testimony involves working for the Lord.
PAUL MADE IT CLEAR:
Don't live like they live.
Ephesians 4:17
