Ephesians 6:8 Context
6Not with eye seruice as men pleasers, but as the seruants of Christ, doing the will of God from the heart: 7With good will doing seruice, as to the Lord, and not to men, 8Knowing that whatsoeuer good thing any man doeth, the same shall he receiue of the Lord, whether he be bond or free. 9And ye masters, do the same things vnto them, forbearing threatning: knowing that your master also is in heauen, neither is there respect of persons with him. 10Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, & in the power of his might.
