Whatever we are, its voluntary, so "slave" as its defined today doesn't seem applicable. Slavery is forced, a slave makes no decision to serve, he has no choice, and benefits nothing. But we have voluntarily surrendered to Christ, we freely chose to serve Christ, and be devoted to Christ. "He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free" (Luke 4:18). We aren't enslaved by Christ, we are set at liberty and freed from death itself. Slaves are whipped, abused, and used to enrich someone else, When I read Isaiah 53, its our Savior who became a humble servant, who was whipped, bruised, and sacrificed to benefit us.. So I don't feel like a slave..
