I'm sure what you REALLY mean is "Does Jesus ENslave?" as "slave" is not a verb, but I understand your attempt at being clever.
And really you're not even talking about Jesus either. You're talking about the religious institutions that claim to use the teachings of Christ as their basis.
So to answer the question "Do religious institutions enslave?" Well the answer is obviously not, but as Christians we must work at preventing our beliefs from "enslaving" our world view, if you will. I will admit that some Christians use Jesus as a weapon and a shield. True Christian faith requires reflection and discussion.
Ultimately your "question" doesn't accomplishing anything. Why not try to actually ask a question worth discussing?

Matthew 6:24 - "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other."
I would rather be a slave for Jesus...
Isaiah 9:6 - "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. "
Then a slave for the devil...
Ephesians 2:2 - "Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience:"
Best Wishes!

Yes Jesus Slaves,
listen to the thoughts of the relgious as he has chained their minds with thoughts of his saving all and dying for all. How perfect.
Look at the wars that have been fought in the name of christ for christ
Look at those that wish not to answer your question bu t question your question.
Go to a church see how those that congregate(like a gang) praise him
If the give over servatude to him than yes he slaves.
Regardsless of PROPER english Jesus Slaves he does not snare anyone for all come on to him of free will it is then that they are slaves he does not ENSLAVE he slaves, as in works peoples minds to death with its own common rhetoric.
Yes Jesus Slaves, so does Buddha, The Lama, The Pope, and any other relgious figure you can think of
UNLEARN

The Jews were enslaved by Pharaoh in Egypt, until God called Moses to lead the Hebrews out of the country. God loved the Jews released his wrath on the Egyptians by drowning them in the Red Sea before holding back the waters so his chosen people could cross.

Jesus slaves, I'm guessing is supposed to sound like but perhaps mean the opposite as the saying "Jesus Saves"
Well my opinion is that people can choose to enslave themselves to any religion. As far as I know Jesus did not enslave anybody, however that was like 2000 years ago, so who the hell really knows.

Absolutely, positively, 100,000% beyond a shadow of a doubt -NO!
Jesus saves YES, but He doesn't slave. You have a choice to accept or reject Him. If you accept Him as Savior, you also have a choice to obey or disobey Him. Christianity isn't about do's and don'ts, it's about appreciating what Jesus did for you. See, He would have gladly come down and died on the cross for you even if you were the only one on earth, He loves YOU that much. What could you possibly give Him in return? Your devotion, but only out of gratitude, not because you have to! If you can't be grateful for what He did for you, you can't express the joy for it either.
