Message text written by (Holden, i think)
>Colossians 3:23

>"Servants, be obedient to them that are your masters accourding to the

>Ephesians 6:5

to which anar wally replied:

>Obey them not only to win their favor when their eye is on you, but like 
>slaves of Christ, doing the will of God from your heart.  Serve 
>wholeheartedly, as f you were serving the Lord, not men, because you 
>know that the Lord will reward everyone for whatever good he does, 
>whether he is slave or free. <


if god rewards slaves for 'serving wholeheartedly', what would you guess
that he thinks about anarchism? is it simply obedience to another set of
rules that is 'good' and worth divine reward? Or does maximizing human
freedom and creativity have some relation to 'good'ness?
