What does the Bible say about Jesus and slavery? How does Strobel explain the Bible’s views on Jesus and slavery when he tries to uncover the truth about Christ’s existence?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus and slavery is a much-discussed topic in religion. When it comes to Jesus and slavery, Strobel attempts to reconcile the idea that a benevolent god would accept such things as slavery. Doesn’t this prove Christ is not divine?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Keep reading to find out more about Jesus and slavery, and Strobel’s discoveries. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

How Can Jesus and Slavery Coexist?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In both the New and Old Testaments, God is said to be a beneficent and loving being. But isn\u2019t it the height of hypocrisy for an infinitely compassionate being to (1) consign people to Hell and (2) allow them to be enslaved?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What (Or Whom) Hell Is For<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Consigning sinful humans to eternal suffering is undoubtedly spectacular, but it doesn\u2019t entail a cruel or mean-spirited God<\/strong>. First, without some sort of deterrent, human beings would sin constantly and egregiously, thereby turning Earth into Hell itself. A case could be made that by creating Hell, God was acting kindly<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Second, God doesn\u2019t consign people to Hell unjustly<\/strong>. Those who have repented, who understand that God is the center of the universe, are never sent and confined to Hell; it\u2019s only those who refuse to repent that stay there for eternity. At the Final Judgment, Romans 3:19 says, \u201cevery mouth may be stopped\u201d by God\u2019s law. In other words, all will understand that their fate, however blessed or cursed, is fair<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus and Slavery<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Modern humans, with good reason, find slavery morally unconscionable. But Jesus, despite his ethical perfection, never mentions the practice or advocates for its abolition. (In Jesus\u2019s time, Jews and Gentiles alike owned slaves, and there were even slave rebellions during Jesus\u2019s childhood.) Which raises the question: What about Jesus and slavery?<\/strong> How can a morally perfect being have nothing to say about slavery?<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first thing to remember is that slavery in the ancient world was vastly different<\/strong> from slavery as it was practiced in the US. In the ancient world, people contracted themselves<\/em> as slaves to pay debts, and slaves weren\u2019t exclusively laborers: they served as private tutors for families as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, slaves in the ancient world hailed from any number of locations and practiced any number of religions. That is to say, unlike American slavery<\/a>, no particular race was subject to slavery<\/strong>. So what was Jesus’s view on slavery?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other important fact to keep in mind is that Jesus\u2019s mission on Earth was not the overthrow of the Roman economic system (which relied, in part, on slavery). Rather, Jesus\u2019s mission was changing the hearts of men\u2014freeing them from sin and inspiring them to love their neighbors as they loved themselves. Jesus\u2019s teachings necessarily entailed the abolition of slavery<\/strong>; any human being who accepted Jesus as God would find slavery abominable. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A case in point is the evangelical awakening in England in the 19th Century. Devoted Christians in Parliament championed legislation to abolish slavery and then advocated the use of the British navy to put a stop to the transatlantic slave trade. They were inspired by Jesus and slavery and the inability to be Christian while also allowing slavery. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
