Author Nathan Randal Tritch explores Paul's analogy of the believer as a slave in Bound to God in Christ Jesus: From Slavery to Sin to Slavery to Christ in Romans 6 ($15.49, paperback, 9781662893759; $6.99, e-book, 9781662893766).
In this chapter of the book of Romans, Paul explains how sinners are slaves to sin under the law, but the saint is in bondage to Christ and righteousness under grace. Martin Luther's exposition of this topic in his writings inspired the author to dig deeper into Paul's claim that he was "a slave of Christ Jesus."
“The slave to God has been forgiven of all sin, declared righteous and free from enslavement to sin on account of Christ. Those joyfully bound to God in Christ are responsive instruments of righteousness for now and forever,” said Tritch.
Nathan Randal Tritch was born in Watauga, Fort Worth, TX; then born again and Baptized in 1980 in the Lutheran Church; later raised in Springfield, MO. He pursued pastoral training at the age of 33, after sobering up from a 21-year addiction to drugs and alcohol. Tritch earned a BS in Biblical Theology in 2018 at Liberty University, an MA in Theology at Concordia Irvine in 2022, and is currently enrolled as an MDiv student at Concordia Seminary in St. Louis, MO. He and his wonderful wife raised three children together.
