“Who are you to judge someone else’s servant? To his own master he stands or falls. And he will stand, for the Lord is able to make him stand.”
“When the angel who spoke to him had gone, Cornelius called two of his servants and a devout soldier from among his attendants.”
“Servants, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to those who are good and gentle, but even to those who are unreasonable.”
“No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and money.””
“Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom the master has put in charge of his household, to give the others their food at the proper time?”
