SEE DISCUSSION BELOW BY JOHN MACARTHUR ON SLAVES WHERE HE SUMMARIZES TRUTHS FROM 1Tim 6, Eph 6 and Col 3 PASSAGES Colossians 3:22-25, 4:1+ Slaves, in all things obey those who are your masters on earth, not with external service, as those who merely please men, but with sincerity of heart, fearing the Lord. 23 Whatever you do, do your work heartily, as for the Lord rather than for men, 24 knowing that from the Lord you will receive the reward of the inheritance. It is the Lord Christ whom you serve. 25 For he who does wrong will receive the consequences of the wrong which he has done, and that without partiality. 4:1 Masters, grant to your slaves justice and fairness, knowing that you too have a Master in heaven. 1 Peter 2:18-19+ Servants, be submissive to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but also to those who are unreasonable. 19 For this finds favor, if for the sake of conscience toward God a person bears up under sorrows when suffering unjustly. (NOTE - Even when you have a terrible employer it still is a responsibility to submit to that authority and to submit to that authority brings pleasure to God) DUTY OF BELIEVING SLAVES TO UNBELIEVING MASTERS Hiebert says "In this brief paragraph [that is, the 1st 2 verses] Paul points out the proper attitude of Christian slaves toward their pagan masters, indicates the relation they are to have toward Christian masters, and concludes with an admonition to Timothy to teach these things."
