1 Corinthians 7:23

“You were bought with a price. Don't become bondservants of men.”

Verse in context — 1 Corinthians 7

Were you called being a bondservant? Don't let that bother you, but if you get an opportunity to become free, use it.

For he who was called in the Lord being a bondservant is the Lord's free man. Likewise he who was called being free is Christ's bondservant.

You were bought with a price. Don't become bondservants of men.

Brothers, let each man, in whatever condition he was called, stay in that condition with God.

Now concerning virgins, I have no commandment from the Lord, but I give my judgment as one who has obtained mercy from the Lord to be trustworthy.
