Slavery and Salvation

Once in the Bible times, Moses was born into slavery. This was when the Israelites were slaves to the Egyptians. Moses went away with a boat. Eventually, he met God via a burning bush. God told him to free the slaves. At first, he said no. Of course later, he was convinced and freed the slaves with the help of God.

 

Sometimes today, we can feel kind of like slaves. I know that sounds silly, but hear me out; do we ever have to do work that we just don’t want to do and can’t control wether we do it or not? Well, that can be kind of like being a slave. Not that I’m saying it is slavery. It’s a metaphor.
