\v 5 Slaves, be obedient to your earthly masters with deep respect and trembling, in the honesty of your heart. Be obedient to them as you would to Christ.
\v 6 Be obedient not only when your masters are watching in order to please them. Instead, be obedient as slaves of Christ. Do the will of God from your heart.

\v 7 Serve with all your heart, as though you were serving the Lord and not people.

\v 9 And you masters, do the same things for your slaves. Do not threaten them. You know that he who is both their Master and yours is in heaven. You know that there is no favoritism with him.

\v 12 For our battle is not against flesh and blood. Instead, it is against the governments and spiritual authorities and rulers of the realm of evil darkness, against the evil spirits in heavenly places.
\v 13 Therefore put on the whole armor of God, so that you may be able to stand firm against evil in this time of evil. After you have done everything, you will stand firm.

2016-05-04 21:48:34 +00:00
\v 15 Do this after you have put on your feet the readiness to proclaim the gospel of peace.
\v 16 In all circumstances pick up the shield of faith, by which you will be able to put out all the flaming arrows of the evil one.

\v 19 And pray for me, that a message might be given to me when I open my mouth. Pray that I might make known with boldness the hidden truth about the gospel.
\v 20 It is for the gospel that I am an ambassador in chains, so that in it I may speak boldly as I ought to speak.
