Slave or Enslaved?

“For you are a slave to whatever controls you.”
2 Peter 2: 19

My Take Aways

Something Old:

I loved been reminded of God’s long-suffering and grace.  He wants no one to perish!

If God gives us everything we need for a godly life, then why do we go other place looking for life?

Something New:

The bulls-eye was on me: a dog returning to vomit or a washed pig returning to the mud.  Why would I do that?  Giving into my weak nature instead of submitting to the divine.

2 Peter 2:19
Slave-enslaved
held in slavery
Subjection
being under control, control or influence

2 Peter 1:1
Servant-bondservant

  • one who gives myself up to another’s will those whose service is by Christ in extending and advancing His cause among men
  • devoted to another to the disregard of one’s own of own interests

Something to Do:

Be a slave to Christ, not enslaved to something, thus giving it control over me.
