Everyone is a slave to this world

The bible tells us that everyone is a slave to this world until Jesus sets them free. 

No matter how free someone may look to us on the outside, if they are without Jesus then they are slaves to their sins one way or the other. 

This is the proper way to look at all men, namely that without Christ they are slaves to sin and alienated from God’s fellowship. Regardless of the creed that they profess, if they are without the Spirit of Christ then they are slaves and held captive to sin. 

Only Jesus can set them free.

So, in humility, we who are free and have the Spirit of Christ ought not to look haughtily at others but instead pray for each one, beseeching the good Lord to save them just like he saved us. And we ought to conduct ourselves in a way that is fitting to our calling so that God will be glorified. There is no boasting!

Love those who disagree with you and serve them with love. Take no offense to heart as to lead to hatred and retaliation for vengeance belongs to the Lord. Indeed in due time, their foot will slip. 

So, we pray for every soul to be set free and to come to the knowledge of the heavenly Saviour.
