THE HARD TOPIC OF SLAVERY

(INAALIPIN; PAGKAALIPIN)

Nararapat gawin ng isang Kristianong alipin/namumuno at

kung ano ang hindi nararapat gawin.

SLAVES AND MASTERS (ALIPIN AT PANGINOON)

ANG LAHAT NG TAO AYNILIKHA NG DIYOS;

KABILANG SA DIYOS

NILIKHA TAYO NA KAILANGANG MAY DIGNIDAD, MAY HALAGA DAHIL

TAYO AY NILIKHA AYON SA KANYANG WANGIS.

People are made by God. People belong to God. People are made with dignity, value, and worth in the image and likeness of God.

And to treat a person as you would a piece of property or livestock, a

possession, is to disrespect the image and likeness of God that they bear. And

that’s how some people slavery was practiced.

THERE ARE LAWBREAKERS, REBELS, UNGODLY, SINFUL, AND

SLAVE TRADERS

1 TIMOTEO 1:9–10 ALALAHANIN NATING ANG KAUTUSAN AY HINDI GINAWA PARA SA MABUBUTING TAO, KUNDI PARA SA MGA WALANG KINIKILALANG BATAS AT MGA KRIMINAL, PARA SA MGA HINDI KUMIKILALA SA DIYOS AT SA MGA MAKASALANAN , PARA SA MGA LAPASTANGAN SA DIYOS AT WALANG HILIG SA KABANALAN , PARA SA MGA MAMAMATAY TAO AT PUMAPATAY NG SARILING AMA O INA.

1 TIMOTEO 1:9–10 IBINIGAY DIN ANG KAUTUSAN PARA SA MGA MAHIHILIG SA KAHALAYAN AT NAKIKIAPID SA KAPUWA LALAKI, PARA SA MGA KIDNAPER, PARA SA MGA SINUNGALING AT SA MGA SAKSING HINDI NAGSASABI NG TOTOO. ANG KAUTUSAN AY IBINIGAY PARA SA LAHAT NA SUMASALUNGAT SA MABUTING ARAL.

SLAVERY IN ROMAN SOCIETY(ALIPIN SA KINABIBILANGAN

MONG LIPUNAN)

APAT (4) NA PARAAN O BAGAY KUNG BAKIT NAGIGING ALIPIN KA SA ROMAN SOCIETY

2 BAGAY NA HINDI DAPAT/ UNFAIR/ NOT

DESERVE

And two were arguably just. The first two were just.

(POSSIBLY, CERTAINLY, VERY SOON, IMMEDIATELY, NOW)

JUST CONDITIONS1. you would be paying

off a debt. (KAILANGAN MONG

MAGBAYAD NG UTANG)

The Bible says that the borrower is slave to the lender.

(ANG NANGUNGUTANG AYALIPIN NG NAGPAPAUTANG)

Is that just or unjust? (MATUWID BA O HINDI)

Well, that’s just.

KASAKIMAN O PAGHAHANGAD

You’re encouraging people to do is take out large loans and debts and then you’re encouraging them to

default and then to bankrupt those who are borrowers. That’s not just.

JUST CONDITIONS2. THEIR OWN VOLITIONAL CHOICE (SARILING KAGUSTUHAN O KUSANG LOOB)

2. THEIR OWN VOLITIONAL CHOICE (SARILING KAGUSTUHAN

O KUSANG LOOB)

IS THAT JUST OR UNJUST?THAT’S JUST

(MAAARI ITONG MAKATULONG)AYOS LANG ITO PARA MAGING

MAINGAT SA ISAT ISA.

UNJUST CONDITIONS(MGA KALALAGAYANG

HINDI DAPAT/HINDI AYOS/HINDI TAMA)

3. One is that people were taken as prisoners of war.

(BILANGGO NG GIYERA)

DAPAT BA ITO O HINDI DAPAT? (IS THAT JUST OR UNJUST?)

IT’S UNJUST

4. Sometimes slaves were previously abandoned infants. (PINABAYAANG MGA SANGGOL)

WHAT THEY DO IS, according to ancient reports, is they would

just leave the child to die.

Sometimes they would literally place the child out with the trash.

Sthe garbage goes out, and there’s the baby.

ADOPTION.

NAPAGTANTO NILA NA ANG DIYOS AMA NATIN AY INAMPON TAYO,

BINIGYAN NG KARAPATANG MAGING ANAK NG DIYOS.

HE ADOPTS US INTO HIS FAMILY, HE GIVES US FULL FAMILY

RIGHTS, WE HAVE AN INHERITANCE.

—that we’re fathered, we’re adopted, we’re blessed, we have an

inheritance.

KOMPLIKADO.

It was diverse. Some were unjust, and some were just.

(ANG IBA AY HINDI DAPAT AT ANG IBA AY DAPAT)

KAYA DAPAT NATING TINGNAN ANG SALITA NG DIYOS NA HINDI NAGBABAGO NOON, NGAYON AT

MAGPAKAILANMAN

ANG MGA BAGAY NA KANYANG GINAWA TWO THOUSAND YEARS

AGO.

NAIS AT KALOOBAN NG DIYOS NA ITO ANG MAGING PATTERN O

GABAY NATIN SA BUHAY

The closest thing that we have is an employer and an employee; someone who is in authority,

Someone who is under authority;

Someone who contractually is obligated to work for someone else, and that person who is then contractually obligated to pay

and provide for those goods/services rendered, whatever the case may be.

GOOD WORKS THAT GOD HAS PREPARED IN ADVANCE FOR US

TO DO:

NAGMAMALASAKIT BA SI LORD SA TRABAHO MO?

WE WORSHIP THE LORD JESUS, who himself worked a job.

Our God becomes a man. Our God lives without sin.

Our God, for the first roughly thirty years of his life, worked

with his FATHER as a carpenter, swinging a hammer, doing a job.

Jesus’ worship didn’t begin the day he started preaching,

teaching, and healing.

Jesus worshiped the day he began obeying—as a child,

obeying his mother and father, as an employee, working under

his father.

MARAMING TAO, SINASAMBA NILA ANG KANILANG TRABAHO.

SAMBAHIN NATIN SI LORD AT AMININ SA ATING SARILI NA ANG

ATING MGA JOB/WORK/BUSINESS/ AY ISANG PRIBILEYO PARA PURIHIN NATIN SI HESUS.

We want to do a good job in authority and under authority, as

Jesus was perfectly under authority and now rules in

authority.

EFESO 2:8-9

SAPAGKAT DAHIL SA KAGANDAHANG LOOB NG DIYOS KAYO AY NALIGTAS DAHIL SA PANANAMPALATAYA; AT ANG KALIGTASANG ITOY KALOOB NG DIYOS AT HINDI SA PAMAMAGITAN NG INYONG SARILI HINDI ITO BUNGA NG INYONG MGA GAWA KAYA’T WALANG DAPAT IPAGMALAKI ANG SINUMAN.

EFESO 2:10

SAPAGKAT TAYO’Y NILALANG NG DIYOS; NILIKHA SA PAMAMAGITAN NI CRISTO JESUS UPANG IUKOL NATIN ANG ATING BUHAY SA PAGGAWA NG MABUTI. IYAN ANG LAYUNING PINILI NG DIYOS PARA SA ATIN NOONG UNA PA MAN.

Those are the good works HE’s prepared in advance for you to

do.

IKAW BA ANG INAASAHAN O BREAD WINNER SA FAMILY

NINYO?

YAN ANG MABUBUTING BAGAY NA INIHANDA NI LORD SA’YO

PARA GANAPIN MO.

ANG RELASYON NATIN KAY HESUS DAPAT ANG NAGIGING

DAAN UPANG GUMAWA TAYO NG TAMA.

KATULAD NI HESUS.

So, relationship with Jesus leads to good works like Jesus.

SI LORD ANG PUMILI SA ATIN. HINDI TAYO ANG PUMILI SA

KANYA.

ANG JOB OR WORK MO NA YAN ANG MAGLE-LEAD SA’YO

TO WORSHIP AND SERVE GOD.

ANG TUNAY NA LINGKOD NI LORD, HINDI KA NA

BABANTAYAN.

NASAAN KA MANG LUGAR, BASTA’T IKAW AY TUNAY NA

LINGKOD NI LORD, HINDI LANG PABOR NG DIYOS ANG SA-SAYO,

KUNDI PABOR DIN NG TAO.

—whatever it is, that’s your work. That’s your work, and your work is a way that we worship God as

Christians.

BILANG TAGASUNOD NI HESUS, GUMAWA TAYO PARA KAY KANYA AT GAWIN ANG KALOOBAN NIYA

NAIS NG DIYOS NA LAHAT NG BAGAY NA GAGAWIN NATIN AY

SIGURADO TAYO NA MAKAPAGBIBIGAY NG LUWALHATI

SA PANGALAN NIYA.

God wants your work to be an act of worship, to do it well, to do it

wholeheartedly, to do it lovingly, to do it fairly, to do it honestly, to do it with integrity.

And it doesn’t matter if you’re paid or unpaid; it’s under the Lord.

Rendering service with a good will as to the Lord, not to man.” Ultimately, we’re going to stand before Jesus and give an account for our whole life, including our work. How’s it

going? How’s it going? How’s it going? That’s his word to those who are under authority.

REASONS FOR THE LACK OF

SUCCESS

AS AN EMPLOYEE:

BE HONEST TO YOUR EMPLOYER (MATAPAT)

AS AN EMPLOYER:

EVERY BOSS MUST CONSIDER THAT HE/SHE HAS A BOSS

NAMED JESUS.

“If Jesus is your Boss, he’s in authority over you, then you treat

others under your authority as he treats you.”

CARE FOR YOUR EMPLOYEES (MALASAKIT)

Care for your employees, care for those under your leadership.

Give a fair salary, a decent benefits package.

DON’T THREATEN.

EPHESIANS 6:8

SAPAGKAT ALAM NINYONG GAGANTIPALAAN NG PANGINOON ANG BAWAT MABUTING GAWA NINUMAN, MAGING SIYA MAN AY ALIPIN O MALAYA.

HINDI PROMOTION

HINDI TATAAS ANG SWELDO

HINDI YUNG BIBIGYAN KA NG TRIBUTE/PRAISE,

ETC.

It does say that eventually, your boss’ Boss, the Lord Jesus, is keeping account, and HE will

reward you.

KAILANGAN LANG TALAGA NATING MABUHAY SA PANANAMPALATAYA.

KAILANGAN GAWIN NATIN ANG TAMA AT DAPAT AYON SA WILL

NI LORD.

TIWALA LANG TALAGA SA DIYOS ANG KAILANGAN MO.

Trusting by faith that Jesus will provide whatever reward is

coming to us.

DON’T WORRY ABOUT IT; DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND JESUS

WILL REWARD YOU.

JESUS’ REWARD IS THREE (3) FOLD:

1. INTERNAL. (SA LOOB).MAYROON KANG KAPAYAPAAN SA

PUSO; CLEAR CONSIENCE AND JOY BECAUSE GINAWA MO ANG DAPAT.

After working wholeheartedly, honestly unto the Lord, you have a clear

conscience and an internal sense of joy because you just did what was right? You know what a clear conscience is worth?

It’s priceless. (HINDI KAYANG BAYARAN) That’s an internal

reward.

LUMALAGO KA, NATUTUTO, NAGMAMATURE

‘YAN ANG INTERNAL REWARD.

2. EXTERNAL REWARD. HINDI PA RIN NAWAWALA ANG

REWARD NA GALING KAY LORD

You’re not losing your rewards; you’re moving your rewards. And the good news with Jesus is this:

he doesn’t have limited resources.

HINDI SIYA NALILIMITAHAN.

Our God lacks nothing.Our God gives generously.
