[QUOTE="DriveInDriѵeOut, post: 5999877, member: 44954"] Jesus was clear he came to free the [B]captive[/B]. You're just lacking in your understanding of biblical times slavery. You're falsely equating it to chattel slavery of modern times. People sold themselves into slavery to avoid starvation. Commanding masters to treat them as equals was essentially rejecting what you're thinking of as slavery. Paul even went so far as to command Christians to purchase their freedom if possible. Christians were radically against bondage and if they weren't the world would be a much darker place. [/QUOTE]
