There are two distinct classes of slaves in the world, and it is important to know to which we belong. Dont you know that when you offer yourselves to someone to obey him as slaves — you are slaves to the one whom you obey; whether you are slaves to sin — which leads to death; or to obedience — which leads to righteousness? Romans 6:16 Who is your Master? There are but two great masters in the world — and we all serve one or the other. Is it SATAN? If so — then sin is your service. You neglect what God requires — and you do what God forbids. You . . . indulge the lusts of the flesh, enjoy the lust of the eye, and walk in the pride of life. If so, then the world is your home! Hell will be your wages! For the wages of sin is death. If you obey Satan — you love sin and live in its indulgence. Then you are his slaves. He works in you. He rules over you. He leads you captive at his will. Whose slave are you? Christs or Satans? To belong to both at the same time is impossible. You cannot serve both God and mammon. Who has our heart? What engages our thoughts most? Whom do we habitually aim to please? If Jesus is our master — then . . . He will have our affections, around Him our thoughts will gather, and our great aim and desire will be to please Him. Let us then prove to whom we belong. Mere profession proves nothing — but obedience does. Who is your master? You are slaves to the one whom you obey. All the slaves of Satan, will at last be commanded to depart from the Savior — into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his demons! All the slaves of Jesus, will be invited by the all-glorious King to accompany Him, and take possession of the kingdom prepared for them from the foundation of the world. Good night rest Gods own!
