For Saturday, May 25, 2024:
Ephesians 6:9 NLT: “Masters, treat your slaves in the same way. Don’t threaten them; remember, you both have the same Master in heaven, and he has no favorites.”
The Bible says to do your work with enthusiasm, as though you were working for the Lord rather than for people. Here on the earth we have masters and slaves. Nowadays we call them bosses and employees. But the ultimate boss, the ultimate master is our Father in heaven. He is the great equalizer, and the final word on everything!
The Bible teaches that after Jesus, “there is no longer Jew or Gentile, slave or free, male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” This has been the goal for 2,000 years, but apparently mankind is not very good at it. People are separated, and in a way judged by each other, by their financial success and racial heritage.
There’d be fewer problems in the world if everyone lived Jesus’ way!
