1 Corinthians 7:17-24 - Various Situations Of Life
17 But as God has assigned a place to every one, as the Lord has called every one, so let him continue to live: and so do I command in all the churches. 18 Has any one been called that had been circumcised? Let him not seek to remove the mark of circumcision. Has any one been called that had not been circumcised? Let him not be circumcised, 19 Circumcision is nothing, and uncircumcision is nothing; but the keeping of the commandments of God is our aim. 20 Let every one remain in that condition in which he was, when called. 21 Were you a servant when you were called? Care not for it. But if you can become free, rather enjoy your freedom. 22 For he that is in the Lord, having been called when a servant, is the Lord's freedman. Likewise, also, the freeman who has been called, is Christ's servant. 23 You have been bought with a price; become not the servants of men. 24 Brethren, let every one, in whatever condition he is called, abide in this with God.
