1 Tim 6:1 Let as many servants as are under the yoke count their own masters worthy of all honour, that the name of God and his doctrine be not blasphemed.

Those that are saved and yet bondsmen, or slaves and are in servitude, are to serve their earthly masters in dignity to give God and His teachings a good Name among the unbelievers.

1 Tim 6:2 And they that have believing masters, let them not despise them, because they are brethren; but rather do them service, because they are faithful and beloved, partakers of the benefit.

Paul does not preach to "free the slaves" as these bondsmen are in servitude. Most probable to pay off a debt of some kind or another. If they have saved masters they are to serve them even more so, because they are faithful to the Lord and benefit from the bondsman's good service. Whatever job or services we are in we are to serve faithfully and give the boss good benefits from our service.

New testament continues slavery . Any good christians I wonder .

I frequently see questions (and answers) bashing "hippies." But I can't remember them doing anything so terrible. What specifically has a hippie done to you? And don't even start on Charles Manson - he doesn't qualify for this question, because I never considered him a hippie.

i was just wondering peoples' opinions, i strongly discourage the war partly because my cousin fought and almost died in iraq for 2 years, and because of all the other young men and women away from their families and children, and sometimes losing their lives.
PEACE support our troops bring them home ALIVE

Why do people call us racist for taking a stand against illegal immigration?? Granted there might be a few which are racist, but the majority of the people who take the stand against illegal immigration are against the illegal aspect of it. I don't hear anyone stating immigration should stop. It is all the ILLEGAL immigration should stop. I along with others don't feel people should be rewarded for breaking the laws of this country. Why as usa citizens should we have to follow the laws or be punished, why should we work hard and pay taxes to support the country when illegals do not have to, and why should we go to school, educate ourselves, and work hard to make our life better when illegals don't have to??? I swear, i speak out against illegal immigration everyday, but it is against the illegal part. I have no problem with legal immigration. We are a country based on immigrants. But people need to abide by and respect the laws of this country. Amnesty is not the answer!!

The Chairman of the Arkansas Republican Party, Dennis Milligan, said "All we need is some attacks on American soil like we had on 9-11..." Do you agree? Is this the official position of the Republican Party? What benefit does the Republican Party expect from more terrorist attacks? How would the "press" have treated this story if a Democrat had said it?

what is wrong with the people running the state of Georgia, do they actually believe a MINOR should be in prison for 10 years for consensual relations with another minor, they may have amended the law since, but the fact they plan on re pursuing this horrifying miscarraige of justice shows they are completely out of control

I am really confused about what conserv's ideology or concept of the word liberal. 1). In some conserv. circles Bush is a liberal, while religious conserv's. think that he is very conserv. 2). Colin Powell has been considered a liberal in the past for a several reasons 3). and of course conservs. HATE HILLARY, PELOSY, AND ETC.

However, the same conservs have also considered Clinton (whom some call a liberal) to be very conservative and even more so conservative than Bush!!!

The word liberal NOW HAS A VERY BIG CAMP WHICH INCLUDES EVERYONE FROM BUSH, POWELL, & CLINTON, PELOSY!!!!

QUESTION:

1). Why does the word liberal keep evolving?
2). If everyone NOW is liberal who is not FARRRRR-RIGHT conserv. doesn't the word liberal lose relavance???

Are your liberal friends applying much pressure on you for being conservative? Boy have I been getting it. Name calling, trying to make me feel ashamed and what ever else they can think of. They even use anger to get me to comply but it hasn't worked. There is no limits to the evil tactics they will use.... MOST of these people are very sick.
I wonder what is burning them so much about us holding on to our Christian values and not selling out for the victim mentality.

Johnny Sutton, the Dept of Justice prosecutor, has not been indicted for falsification of evidence or obstruction of justice though evidence exists that he is guilty of that in his prosecution of the border patrolmen that shot & wounded as known drug smuggler. To make matters worse, members of the Democratic party & G.W. Bush are stonewalling an investigation of this miscarriage of justice. WHY? Is this a deal with the government of Mexico?

Can anyone explain to me why Anthony was charged with second-degree murder? I don't know anything about any of this kind of stuff, but I can usually get it to make sense to my immature little brain. I'm not "arguing" that he shouldn't be charged, I just want to know if anyone can tell me why it was justified.

Do you know that they feel that birth control is abortion? And should also be illegal? Do you support Right to life? And my source is the 14 hours of Natural Family Planning classes I have had to take for marriage prep. I read so many talk about 'use birth control' but did you know that birth control is considered abortion by Right to Life?

Our landlord is trying to evict us because she is saying that we have done repairs to our apartment without permission, and then we deducted the cost of those repairs with out permission. Her husband, did give us permission back in March to do the repairs, but he unfortunatley passed 3 days after the repairs were completed. The repairs were made because of safety issues, not "upgrades" that we just wanted to have. She is trying to say that since he has passed, there is no proof that he gave permission. We fired back with the same thing, since he has passed, she has no proof that he DIDN'T give permission. Our lease is verbal, as all permission has been. I am just trying to find out what the best corse of action is...hopefully someone out there can help me!

How much money will my husband get for driving his vehicle to his next duty station? The Millage is 1,348, and they said they will pay .15 cents per mile. I did this calculation and got that they will pay me $202.20. However, I remember when I drove my vehicle I was given some huge amount like a Thousand. I just don't remember, what other allowances do they pay???

Since the gov't still owes on the "40 acres and a mule" promise to the freed slaves, and border security is an issue with talks of a "Great Wall" of America even -

how about we give off 40-acre strips of land along the Mexican border to the families of freed slaves, and just make sure the crunkest, pit-bull fighting-est homies' property abuts the Mexican border?

no one in their right mind would cross that

it kills two birds with one stone

how's that sound?

English is the language that we were speaking in 1607, when the first American permanent colony was established at Jamestown. It's been the language this country has done business in for 400 years.

Sadly, I'm seeing it change. We're being invaded by Spanish culture. Even our children are being brainwashed into thinking this is ok, with shows like Dora the Explorer and Go Diego Go becoming mainstream entertainment. I pay money to a cable company every month who supports just as many channels in Spanish that I have in English. I can't watch half of what I pay for. Every number that I call now has a "dial 2 for Spanish" recording.

Why should we suddenly change and go bilingual Spanish now simply because our invaders refuse to learn and respect this country? Instead they have schools and the hiring of bilingual employees just to cater to their needs, when they shouldn't be here in the first place, let alone be allowed to disregard the language this country was founded on.

using *safe* sex is just pre-conception abortion. every time a guy pleasures himself, he kills millions of unborn babies.
oh the horror.
if you are truly pro-life then you should outlaw masturbation, condoms, abstinence, and abortion.
only then can this unholy slaughter of billions, nay, trillions of babies be stopped!
