Calvary Chapel Casa Grande Sunday

There is no doubt in the mind of any serious Bible student, Theologian or Biblical Professor that Paul is speaking in these verses about the actions which should be taken by those who were slaves, and those who owned slaves during the days of the Roman Empire. It hard for us to fathom the culture of that day, but as much as two thirds of the Roman Empire were slaves (before the first century it was as high as 90%). As the Gospel spread across the Empire, many of these slaves were coming to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ, and in addition, not a few of their masters. Now they sit side by side in the Church, worship Jesus together.
