The Holiness code of Leviticus explicitly allowed participation in the slave trade, with non-Israelite residents who had been sold into slavery being regarded as a type of property that could be inherited. Foreign residents were included in this permission, and were allowed to own Israelite slaves.

However, this did not take away from our inheritance as the God kind. Born, created and formed in immortality, free choice, free will and abundant life incorporated within our beings, as the perfect masterpiece creation of the living God. Father Son Holy Spirit. Even as they are three consisting of One component ‘Spirit’ so are we One consisting of three components. Father, Son, Holy Spirit (John 17:21) engulfed in Love, made in the image and likeness of our Counterpart YHVH. So we are spirit and we are truth and we are love. When they look at us, in us they see YHVH all of whom they are loving us with a love that never ceases or fails.

In the beginning they said “let us make men in Our image and in Our likeness.” Genesis 1:26. And “Let us give them the freedom to choose us.” Joshua 24:15. That our law of one will also be their law of one which is unfailing Love. Matt. 22: 37 Love the Lord with all your heart and all your soul and all your mind verse 39, love your neighbor as yourself. Or to rephrase, ‘love your neighbor even as the component of your being is Governing love.

So we have the freedom to choose God and to not be again entangled in the grasp of slavery or ongoing acts of sin, but by mind renewal, having our thoughts transformed into the mind and thought patterns of YHVH we can overcome patterns of would be slavery on our life path into Godly identity, making it easier to behold them from whom we were birthed, Father Son Holy Spirit.. with their true image on the inside of us and their true likeness covering us- face to face.

Called out of slavery

During the time before we knew God, we were slaves to ungodly powers that are not gods at all. Gal. 4:8. (Voice translation) Now we must stand strong for our freedom. Gal 5:1 The anointed one freed us so we wouldn’t spend one more day under the yoke of slavery trapped under the law of sin and death.

Examples of Slavery tactics that work against the ecclesia

• Self-government (Resisting the will of God To carry out our own desires
• Having a Stony heart [not walking in a spirit of love or forgiveness]
• Allowing fear to rule our hearts
• Wrong trading ‘choosing to do what is contrary to godliness knowingly’
• Housing bitterness
• Rejecting oneness
• Contentions over doctrines
• Functioning outside of peace and rest.

Let’s focus on Gal 5:19-21. The slavery tactics here are to keep the flesh in a war rage against the spirit, creating double mindedness and a lack of unity within the two. We are created/born, Body Soul Spirit another component of three that should function in unity as One. Flesh warring against spirit creates slavery within the heart and mind of our being and can easily promote slavery in the ecclesia through the spreading of discord between sons of the ecclesia hindering the process of maturity in the sons.

A slave is a person who is a legal property of another and is forced to obey them. When we allow negative slave tactics to overcome us as God’s ecclesia, we become slaves to every opposing being of the kingdom of heaven, and deny the liberty to which we have been Called in Yeshua.

Guarding our hearts. Governing over what we allow to enter our body soul spirit gates.

As free sons in Yeshua we aim to remain in the freedom to which we are called. We guard our hearts/minds/soul against the tactics of slavery behaviors, guarding our hearts by seeing our hearts as the heart of YHVH in us.

Essential keys

• Spiritual discernment
• Knowledge
• Awareness
• Coming out of Babylon (spiritual enslavement)
• Becoming overcomers
• Journeying into love
• Discerning oneness
• Guard the intake of our eye gates. (Things we may meditate to look on that are contrary to the righteousness of God)
• Guard The intake of our ear gates. (Ungodly things we might choose to constantly listen to)

But rather, touch taste and experience the greatness of YHVH as free sons called to liberty, being disentangled from the strongholds of mindsets entangled in ungodly thought patterns until we become engulfed in the servanthood of Godliness.

There is a difference in choosing to become servants, sons and freewill slaves of God rather than to be enslaved by ungodly trading. This comes in our journey through desire and unrestrained love for YHVH. ‘Father Son Holy Spirit’ by choosing intimacy friendship and obedience unto life. We choose to become living sacrifices so much so that we choose to give up any form of self-government and any form of wrong trading to submit to every desire of the heart of God, because we love him with an everlasting love and freely choose to be enslaved by every desire of everything that brings him joy.

As sons servants and freewill slaves, we walk freely from the destructive tactics of ungodly mindsets of slavery to embrace the identity of slaves of God reflecting YHVH to the emanating of His frequency in the heavens and on the earth as manifest sons and testaments of freewill slavery. Determining to manifest the honor of his name forever
