WHY DID GOD ALLOW SLAVERY IN THE BIBLE? | A Difficult but Honest Biblical Explanation
Why did God allow slavery in the Bible?
This is one of the hardest and most misunderstood questions about Scripture—and one that has caused many people to doubt their faith or walk away from the Bible entirely.
In this in-depth teaching, we confront the question honestly and biblically. We do not defend cruelty. We do not justify abuse. And we do not ignore Scripture.
Instead, we explore:
The ancient world the Bible entered
Why slavery existed long before the Bible
God’s role as Deliverer, not Oppressor
How biblical laws restrained and limited evil
Why the Exodus reveals God’s heart for freedom
How Jesus and the New Testament dismantled slavery from the inside
Why Christianity planted the seeds that ultimately ended slavery
This video carefully distinguishes biblical servitude from modern race-based chattel slavery, showing how Scripture consistently moves humanity toward dignity, justice, and freedom.
The Bible does not celebrate chains.
It tells the story of a God who breaks them.
If you’ve ever wrestled with questions about God’s goodness, justice, or the morality of the Old Testament, this teaching is for you.
📖 Scripture references include: Exodus 3, Exodus 21, Galatians 3:28, Philemon, Matthew 19, and more.
