The Gospel breaks down barriers that separate individuals in the world. When Paul instructed redeemed masters, for example, he reminded them that as brothers and sisters in Christ, masters and bondservants stood equal before God. Alistair Begg teaches that the same holds true for Christian employers and employees today. Regardless of job status, they ultimately serve and answer to an impartial God. Rather than bully those under their supervision, Christian employers should extend grace to their employees without qualification, transforming threats into encouragement.

When Paul addressed the work relationships of his day in his letter to the Ephesians, he was not driven by social or political reform but by the Gospel; theologically, he could not detract from the priority of the message of Jesus Christ. Alistair Begg reminds us that the church’s calling is not to change the culture but to share the only thing that can change the human heart: the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
