1Corinthians 9:19 "For though I be free from all [men], yet have I made myself servant unto all, that I might gain the more. "
What does that mean to you? To serve. It evokes the image of people working hard. Not sitting around while others do all the work. Jesus said that his servants will be honored by GOD the Father. John 12:26 "If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any man serve me, him will [my] Father honour." 1Corinthians 7:22 tells us that we that "... [being] free, is Christ's servant." If you are saved, then you are Christ's servant. You must serve him. Why would you not want to? He bled and died so that you can have a chance at life. All he asks is that we work for him, and not serve ourselves or other
men. 1Corinthians 7:23 "Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men." Jesus paid the price for us. He only asks us to do His will. Please, don't let this world be your life. Don't be an average christian, be above average and do something for GOD today.
