For the one having been called in the Lord while a slave is the Lord's freedman; likewise the one having been called while free is a slave of Christ. For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's freeman: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. For he that was called in the Lord being a bondservant, is the Lord's freedman: likewise he that was called being free, is Christ's bondservant. For the bondman that is called in [the] Lord is the Lord's freedman; in like manner [also] the freeman being called is Christ's bondman. For he that was called in the Lord, being a bondservant, is the Lord's freedman: likewise he that was called, being free, is Christ's bondservant. For he that is called in the Lord, being a servant, is the Lord's free-man: likewise also he that is called, being free, is Christ's servant. For a Christian, if he was a slave when called, is the Lord's freed man, and in the same way a free man, if called, becomes the slave of Christ. For he who was called in the Lord being a bondservant is the Lord's free man. Likewise he who was called being free is Christ's bondservant. for he who is in the Lord -- having been called a servant -- is the Lord's freedman: in like manner also he the freeman, having been called, is servant of Christ: Jump to Previous Bondman Bondservant Christ Christian Christ's Free Freed Freeman Free-Man Lord's Manner Servant Similarly Slave WayJump to Next Bondman Bondservant Christ Christian Christ's Free Freed Freeman Free-Man Lord's Manner Servant Similarly Slave WayExternal Links 1 Corinthians 7:22 NIV1 Corinthians 7:22 NLT 1 Corinthians 7:22 ESV 1 Corinthians 7:22 NASB 1 Corinthians 7:22 ASV 1 Corinthians 7:22 Bible Apps 1 Corinthians 7:22 Biblia Paralela 1 Corinthians 7:22 Chinese Bible 1 Corinthians 7:22 French Bible 1 Corinthians 7:22 German Bible Alphabetical: a by called Christ's For free freedman he in is likewise Lord Lord's man similarly slave the was when while who NT Letters: 1 Corinthians 7:22 For he who was called (1 Cor. 1C iC 1Cor i cor icor) Bible Study Resources, Dictionary, Concordance and Search Tools |
