20 Let each one remain in the same calling in which he was called.
21 Were you called while a slave? Do not be concerned about it; but if you can be made free, rather use it.
22 For he who is called in the Lord while a slave is athe Lord’s freedman. Likewise he who is called while free is bChrist’s slave.  
23 aYou were bought at a price; do not become slaves of men.  
24 Brethren, let each one remain with aGod in that state in which he was called.

1 Corinthians 7:22

Is the Lord's freeman - Is free in this respect. The Greek word implies one that was a slave, but now is free. Is the bondman of Christ - Not free in this respect; not at liberty to do his own will.
