## 1 Corinthians 7:23-24 in Context (Verses 20–27 KJV)
 
 [20 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/20) Let every man abide in the same calling wherein he was called.
 
 [21 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/21) Art thou called *being* a servant? care not for it: but if thou mayest be made free, use *it* rather.
 
 [22 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/22) For he that is called in the Lord, *being* a servant, is the Lord’s freeman: likewise also he that is called, *being* free, is Christ’s servant.
 
 [23 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/23) Ye are bought with a price; be not ye the servants of men.
 
 [24 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/24) Brethren, let every man, wherein he is called, therein abide with God.
 
 [25 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/25) Now concerning virgins I have no commandment of the Lord: yet I give my judgment, as one that hath obtained mercy of the Lord to be faithful.
 
 [26 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/26) I suppose therefore that this is good for the present distress, *I say*, that *it is* good for a man so to be.
 
 [27 ](/kjv/1-corinthians/7/27) Art thou bound unto a wife? seek not to be loosed. Art thou loosed from a wife? seek not a wife.
