Name Tags: You are… Bondservants & Slaves

Simon Peter, a bondservant and apostle of Jesus Christ…

2 Peter 1:1 (NKJV)

Paul, a bondservant of God and an apostle of Jesus Christ, according to the faith of God’s elect and the acknowledgment of the truth which accords with godliness…

Titus 1:1 (NKJV)

James, a bondservant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ…

James 1:1 (NKJV)

If you circulated among people wearing a name tag that said 'Slave of Christ'... many would be appalled or sorrowful at such a seemingly low position. Because God's way is foolishness to them.*

But to the powers of heaven and hell, this nametag bears PROFOUND significance. It labels you as the Lord's property. Therein, you have royal privileges, including invincible protection!

Because being a bondservant of Christ (as Peter, Paul, James, and Jude call themselves)** brings transcending freedom found nowhere else.

Bondage to the devil's yoke is BROKEN. Saints are free to live in peace, love, and joy: to be creative and find fulfillment.

Actors, models, and talent for Christ:

Creativity is your calling call. In telling a story through your talents, a glorious and compelling story, a story leading lost people to Christ, you bring godly purpose to your giftings.

But the empowering freedom you need to run the distance as His performers… is only found in subjection to Him.

  • In Him, the gates to success are open.

  • In Him, humble people are exalted.

  • In Him, your modeling is perfected.

  • In Him, your acting is telling the truth.

  • In Him, your singing is softening hearts.

  • In Him, your dancing is raising the dead.

Because all of life's most wondrous movements require the freedom found in His service.

NOTE: God is my Ghostwriter. If what I write is good, it’s from God. You may see notes to 'Actors, Models & Talent for Christ.' If you think you're not in show business, think again. Shakespeare said, 'All the world's a stage and all its men and women merely players.’ Mostly true. But you're not merely players. You are messengers and ambassadors for the King of kings.
