The Comfort of Enslavement: Exodus 12-15
Manage episode 479010453 series 3382770
I'd love to hear from you, text me your thoughts!
Can you be HAPPY as a slave? Yes... you can. Biblically, being enslaved means that someone else is responsible for you. We have long focused on the part of this where the products of your labor are owned by a "master", but in the Bible and throughout much of history, slavery was actually a willful condition that you placed yourself into for survival.
Is there any entity or person in your life that you have made responsible for you? Do you depend on a governmental agency to vet all the food you eat- and accept their benevolence without question? Have you given over your bodily autonomy to a doctor- expecting them to make decisions and tell you what to do- accepting their orders without question?
Modern day slavery is a lot more like Biblical slavery... only most of our population are willingly giving ownership of themselves over to evil entities that will not care for you in exchange for the benefit they derive from you.
Being enslaved to God= health.... enslavement by anything else= death.
