1 Corintios 7:21

21 Art thou called being a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use it rather.

Ver. 21. Use it rather ] Liberty is that we lost by sin, and affect by nature. Servus est nomen officii. A servant is not αυτοματος , one that moveth absolutely of himself, he is the master’s instrument, and ολως εκεινου , wholly his, saith Aristotle. Oh that we could be God’s servants in that sort!
