Slavery

“…our slavery to Christ has radical implications for how we think and live.  We have been bought with a price. We belong to Christ.  We are part of a people for His own possession.  And understanding all of that changes everything about us, starting with our perspective and our priorities.

.

“True Christianity is not about adding Jesus to my life.  Instead, it is about devoting myself completely to Him – submitting wholly to His will and seeking to please Him above all else.  It demands dying to self and following the Master, no matter the cost.  In other words, to be a Christian is to be Christ’s slave.”

.

~John MacArthur, Slave, pgs. 21-22
