Have you heard this one? The God of the Bible supports slavery? Logic: It's not true. The slavery of the Bible was a debt system of man, borrow money or land, etc, and pay it back by working.
- Old Testament laws said to treat them well and after seven years the debt is paid no matter what. Paul, writing in the New Testament addressed the same system, saying both slave/worker and the one being owed, were equal, and both should act toward each other with respect and consideration of one another.
