1First, Masters Duties are set down, Col. 4.1. Masters, give unto your Servants that which is just and equal, knowing, that ye also have a Master in Heaven: where you have, 1. The Charge that is given, to do that which is just and equal. 2. The Persons to whom this Charge is given: Masters. 3. The Persons unto whom this justice and equity must be shown: Servants. 4. The Reason to enforce it; knowing that ye have a Master in heaven. There is no Man, that is a Master, but he hath a Master, and that is God.
