Title: Christ The Servant
Text: Exodus 21:1-6
Subject: The Law of the Bond
Servant
Introduction:
This
Book, the Book you hold in your hand, the Book of God, the Bible is in its
entirety all about Christ. It is a Him Book. It is all about Him.
(Luke
24:27) "And beginning at Moses and
all the prophets, he expounded unto them in all the scriptures the things
concerning himself."
(Luke 24:44-47) "And he said unto them, These are the
words which I spake unto you, while I was yet with you, that all things must be
fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets,
and in the psalms, concerning me. 45 Then opened he their
understanding, that they might understand the scriptures, 46 And said
unto them, Thus it is written, and thus it behoved Christ to suffer, and to
rise from the dead the third day: 47 And that repentance and remission
of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at
Jerusalem."
Everything
recorded in this Book is recorded to teach us something about Christ and
redemption by him. All the events of Old Testament history, all the miracles,
all the laws, all the history of Israel and the world, as it is recorded by
Inspiration was brought to pass specifically to teach us gospel lessons.
This
Book is a Treasure Chest, full of gold, diamonds, sapphires, rubies, and
precious treasures. But it is a lock chest until you have the key that opens
it. And the only Key that will open this treasure chest to your soul is Christ.

The Giving of the Law
Everything
in this blessed Book is about Christ.
When
the Lord God came down on
That is exactly what will happen with
anyone who ever hears what God says in his law. -- "Tell me, ye that desire to be under the law, do ye not hear the law?" (Gal. 4:21)
·
“Be ye holy for I am holy.”
·
“Walk before me and be thou
perfect!”
·
“It must be perfect to be
accepted.”
·
“The soul that sinneth, it shall
die.”
The law reveals God’s holiness and justice.
Any mere sinful man who dares touch it will die by it. God never gave the law
to be a code of conduct, a means of salvation, or a ladder to holiness. God’s
law was given at Sinai to identify and condemn sin, to pronounce sinners
guilty, and shut us up to Christ alone for grace and salvation (Rom.
(Romans 3:19-31) "Now we know that what things soever the
law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be
stopped, and all the world may become guilty before
God. {20} Therefore
by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by
the law is the knowledge of sin. {21} But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested,
being witnessed by the law and the prophets;
{22} Even the righteousness of God which
is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe:
for there is no difference: {23} For
all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; {24} Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption
that is in Christ Jesus: {25} Whom
God hath set forth to be a
propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the
remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; {26} To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and
the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus. {27} Where is boasting
then? It is excluded. By what law? of
works? Nay: but by the law of faith. {28}
Therefore we conclude that a man
is justified by faith without the deeds of the law. {29} Is he the God of the Jews only? is he not also of the Gentiles? Yes, of
the Gentiles also: {30} Seeing it is one
God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through
faith. {31} Do we then make void the law through faith? God forbid: yea, we
establish the law."
No sooner did the Lord God give his law to Moses on Sinai, than the children of Israel cried out for an intercessor, a mediator, someone to stand between them and God (Ex. 20:18-19).
(Exodus 20:18-19) "And all the people saw the thunderings,
and the lightnings, and the noise of the trumpet, and the mountain smoking: and
when the people saw it, they removed,
and stood afar off. {19} And they
said unto Moses, Speak thou with us, and we will hear: but let not God speak
with us, lest we die."
While
“the people stood afar off, Moses drew
near unto the thick darkness where God was” (Ex.
Listen
to me now. Things have not changed. If
you and I would come to the holy Lord God and find acceptance with him, there
is only one way we can do so, and that way is the way here declared, that way
is Christ. If we would come to God and be accepted of
him…
·
We must worship him alone as
God. He
alone is God who is sovereign, holy, just, and gracious (Ex.
(Exodus
20:23) "Ye shall not make with me
gods of silver, neither shall ye make unto you gods of gold."
·
We must worship him upon the
altar he has made (Christ), with the sacrifice he requires (Christ), in the place where
he records his name (Christ) – (Ex.
(Exodus 20:24) "An
altar of earth thou shalt make unto me, and shalt sacrifice
thereon thy burnt offerings, and thy peace offerings, thy sheep, and thine
oxen: in all places where I record my name I will come unto thee, and I will
bless thee."
·
We must come to the holy
Lord God trusting Christ alone, contributing nothing. We must not attempt to
come to God upon the basis of anything we have done or might do (Ex.
(Exodus 20:25) "And if thou wilt make me an altar of
stone, thou shalt not build it of hewn stone: for if thou lift up thy tool upon it, thou hast polluted it."
Illustration: -- Uzza
·
We must not attempt to come
to God by degrees. There are no steps of grace and salvation, no steps by which we
ascend to God, no steps to righteousness and holiness. Christ is all, or nothing (Ex. 20:26; 1 Cor. 1:30-31).
(Exodus 20:26) "Neither
shalt thou go up by steps unto mine altar, that thy nakedness[1]
be not discovered thereon."
Exodus 21:6
Now,
I want us to look at Exodus 21:1-6. Here the Lord God begins to give his
judgments (civil statutes) to
(Exodus 21:1-6) "Now these are the judgments which thou shalt set before them. {2} If thou
buy an Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go
out free for nothing. {3} If he came in by himself, he shall go out by himself: if he
were married, then his wife shall go out with him. {4} If his master have given him a wife,
and she have born him sons or daughters; the wife and her children shall be her
master's, and he shall go out by himself.
{5} And if the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my
children; I will not go out free: {6} Then
his master shall bring him unto the judges; he shall also bring him to the
door, or unto the door post; and his master shall bore his ear through with an
awl; and he shall serve him for ever."
Proposition: This law describes a man
who would voluntarily make himself a bond-servant to his master for life; and
that Man is the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior.
The Servant spoken of in this passage of Scripture, by type and
picture, is the Lord Jesus Christ our Savior. It is him whom we have come to
hear, him we have come to worship, him we must have, and him I have come here
to preach. The title of my message is – Christ the Servant. The Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, became the Servant of God that he
might redeem and save sinners chosen of God from the foundation of the world
(Matt.
Let me show you five things about this law of the bond-servant,
by which our Lord Jesus Christ was typified.
I.
First, the
Lord Jesus Christ chose to become Jehovah’s Servant.
We understand and rejoice to
know that this servant is himself God, one with the Father in being, glory and
greatness, in all things equal with the Father.
In his eternal Deity, as God the Son, our Savior is altogether
equal with the Father. But he became a man, became our Surety, became our
Mediator, that he might subject himself to and obey his Father’s will as a man
(2 Cor. 8:9; Phil. 2:6-8).
(Philippians 2:6-8) “Who, being in the form of God, thought it
not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took
upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: And being
found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death,
even the death of the cross."
Those words are of unspeakable importance. Much, very much
indeed, depends on a right understanding of them. Here let it be clearly understood that…
A.
The Son of God is and must be God, the second Person
of the blessed Trinity.
We are Trinitarians. We
believe, according to the Scriptures, that there is one God, subsisting in
three eternal Persons, in all things equal to one another (1 John 5:7).
(1 John 5:7) "For there are three that bear record
in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are
one."
B.
The Son of God cannot possibly be inferior to the
Father in his divine nature.
If Jesus Christ is God
manifest in the flesh, as the Scriptures declare, there cannot be, in anyway,
an inequality between the Father and the Son.
Augustus Toplady, wrote, "The uncreated and
eternally begotten Son of the Father Almighty is and must be as truly a divine
being as the Father who begat him."
C.
Therefore, when we read in the Scriptures of
Christ’s being the Servant of God, subjecting himself to the will of God, and
obeying the commandment of God, we are assured that his servitude is and must
be by his own free and voluntary consent.
He is indeed the Servant of
God; but his service was no forced work. "He gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and
purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works" (Titus 2:14). "Christ loved the church, and gave himself for it." (Eph.
5:25). Our Lord himself declares, "As
the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for
the sheep" (John
There was a perfect understanding between
the Father and the Son from eternity. Let there be no misunderstanding in our
own minds. Christ became the Servant of Jehovah by his own will.
(Isaiah 50:5-7) "The Lord GOD hath opened mine ear, and
I was not rebellious, neither turned away back. {6} I gave my back to the smiters, and my cheeks to them that
plucked off the hair: I hid not my face from shame and spitting. {7} For the Lord GOD will help me;
therefore shall I not be confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint,
and I know that I shall not be ashamed."
Illustration: Honey-Do Day
(Isaiah 42:1-4) "Behold my servant, whom I uphold; mine
elect, in whom my soul delighteth; I
have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth judgment to the Gentiles. {2} He shall not cry, nor lift up, nor
cause his voice to be heard in the street.
{3} A bruised reed shall he not break, and the
smoking flax shall he not quench: he shall bring forth judgment unto truth. {4} He shall not fail nor be
discouraged, till he have set judgment in the earth:
and the isles shall wait for his law."
II.
Second, the
Lord Jesus served.
From
the moment of his birth, until his final breath in this world, the Lord Jesus
served. He was ever Jehovah’s righteous and faithful Servant. He said, to his
disciples, “I am among you as he that
serveth” (Luke
(Hebrews 10:5-14) "Wherefore when he cometh into the
world, he saith, Sacrifice and offering thou wouldest not, but a body hast thou
prepared me: {6} In
burnt offerings and sacrifices for
sin thou hast had no pleasure. {7} Then
said I, Lo, I come (in the volume of the book it is written of me,) to do thy
will, O God. {8} Above when he said,
Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings and offering for sin thou wouldest not, neither hadst pleasure therein; which are offered by the law; {9} Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy
will, O God. He taketh away the first, that he may
establish the second. {10} By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the
body of Jesus Christ once for all. {11} And
every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same
sacrifices, which can never take away sins:
{12} But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever,
sat down on the right hand of God; {13} From
henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. {14} For by
one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified."
Now,
listen carefully. According to Exodus 21, a servant could only serve for six
years, no more, except he become a voluntary bond-servant forever.
(Exodus 21:2) "If thou buy an
Hebrew servant, six years he shall serve: and in the seventh he shall go out
free for nothing."
Six years was the measure of a man’s
obedience. That is not accidental. Six is the number of man, the number of
incompletion, frustration, and failure. The Lord Jesus Christ came here to do
as Jehovah’s Servant what no man had ever done before, but what all men must
do; and he did it. – He came here to make up for, to make reconciliation
for, to make atonement for, to make an end of sin, and to bring in everlasting
righteousness (Dan. 9:24; Rom. 8:1-4).
(Daniel 9:24) "Seventy weeks are determined upon thy
people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end
of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting
righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy."
(Romans 8:1-4) "There
is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who
walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. {2} For the law of the Spirit of life in
Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. {3} For what the law could not do, in
that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of
sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: {4} That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us,
who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit."
1.
This Servant of God
fulfilled the law perfectly, bringing in everlasting righteousness.
2.
This Servant of God put away
the sins of his people by the sacrifice of himself. – He finished the
transgression and made an end of sins!
3.
Our blessed Savior taught
us, by example, how to serve our God. – He washed his disciples’ feet (John
13:1-5).
The
Lord Jesus chose to become a Servant. He actually served the will of God. Now,
be sure you get the third thing stated in the text.
III.
Third, Had he chosen to do so, our
blessed Savior could have gone out free.
It
was the servant’s choice, back here in Exodus 21, whether he remained a servant
or went out free. So it was with our Savior, even after he had come into the
world.
A.
Living here as a Man, the Lord Jesus had perfectly
honored and pleased his Father.
(Matthew 17:5) "While he yet spake, behold, a bright
cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye
him."
B.
Even in Gethsemane, the Lord Jesus told Peter he was
under no constraint, except the constraint of his own voluntary will to die in
our place at Calvary (Matt. 26:52-54).
(Matthew 26:52-54) "Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again
thy sword into his place: for all they that take the sword shall perish with
the sword. {53} Thinkest thou that I
cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve
legions of angels? {54} But how then shall the scriptures be fulfilled, that thus it must
be?"
C.
But – Had he gone out free, he would go out by himself.
IV.
So,
fourth, I want you to see that our
Lord would not go out by himself.
Look at Exodus 21:5, and watch the order.
(Exodus 21:5) "And if the servant shall plainly say, I
love my master, my wife, and my children; I will not go out free."
(John 12:27-32) "Now is my soul troubled; and what shall
I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this
hour. {28} Father, glorify thy name.
Then came there a voice from heaven, saying,
I have both glorified it, and
will glorify it again. {29} The
people therefore, that stood by, and heard it,
said that it thundered: others said, An angel spake to him. {30} Jesus answered and said, This voice came not because of me, but for your sakes. {31} Now is
the judgment of this world: now shall the prince of this world be cast out. {32} And I, if I be lifted up from the
earth, will draw all men unto
me."
“If the servant shall plainly say, I love my master, my wife, and my
children; I will not go out free.” – Oh, how I thank God that he
said, “I will not go out free!”
(Isaiah 50:7)
"For the Lord GOD will help me; therefore shall I not be
confounded: therefore have I set my face like a flint, and I know that I shall
not be ashamed."
(Luke 9:51)
"And it came to pass, when the time was come that he should be
received up, he stedfastly set his face to go to
Let's see what we can learn from these words. Picture in your
mind the great covenant of grace. The Lord Jesus, way back before the world was
made, stood before God the Father, and said...
A. "I
love my Master."
Why did the Lord Jesus
Christ come into this world? The answer is found in these words. Christ came
here because of his great love for his Father, to glorify God the Father. The
first Adam, who was made for the glory of God, failed miserably. The last Adam
succeeded gloriously! He restored that which he took not away.
1.
He was altogether competent for the work he came to
do, because this man is God, because this God-man was altogether without sin.
·
-"In him is no sin"
(1 John 3:5).
·
-"He knew no sin"
(2 Cor
·
-"He did no sin" (1
Pet
·
-When tempted of the devil, Satan found nothing in him by which to
seduce him.
2.
He had no work, no ambition, no will, but to do his
Father's will.
·
When he was just a boy, he corrected his mother on this subject, saying,
"Wist ye not that I must be about my
Father's business" (Luke
·
When he was a man, he said, "I
do always those things that please him" (John
·
When his labor was ended, when his work was done, when the faithful Servant
gave an account of the work he had done, he said, "I have glorified thee on the earth: I have finished the work which thou
gavest me to do" (John 17:4).
It is by the covenant
Surety's glorification of the Father that elect sinners are saved with an
everlasting salvation and eternally justified. The love of God for us and the
love of Christ for his Father is the source and cause
of it all.
B.
Next, the Servant says,
"I love my wife."
You who are loved of Christ
cannot fail to see your Beloved here. Here we see something of the marvelous
love of Christ for his bride, the Church. What David said concerning Jonathan
we say from the heart concerning our Redeemer: "Thy love
to me is wonderful!" (2 Sam 1:26).
I pray for you, and for myself, as Paul did for the
Ephesians, that we might know the unknowable, -
"That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and
grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the
breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ,
which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of
God" -- (Eph. 3:17-19).
Ephesians 5:25-27 -- "Husbands, love your
wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; That he
might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, That he
might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or
any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.”
Where can we find
illustrations of Christ' great love for his elect bride?
1.
Jacob's Love for Rachel
Genesis 29:18-20 -- “And Jacob loved Rachel;
and said, I will serve thee seven years for Rachel thy
younger daughter. And Laban said, It is better that I
give her to thee, than that I should give her to another man: abide with me.
And Jacob served seven years for Rachel; and they seemed unto him but a few
days, for the love he had to her.”
Jacob's love was rewarded with deceit, but it did not dampen his love. Our Savior's love for us caused him shame and suffering unknown, but the more he endured the more his love was made manifest. His love for us is stronger than death and as firm as the very life of the eternal God!
2.
Adam's Love for Eve
Nowhere do we see the love of Christ, the last Adam, for his bride more fully illustrated than in the love of the first Adam for his wife Eve.
The Holy Spirit tells us plainly that Adam was not deceived by
the devil (1 Tim
C. Next, the Servant says,
"I love my children."
Even back then, in the
covenant of grace, before the world began, the predestined children of God were
given a family relation with the Son of God. Is he the Son of God? So are we,
by divine adoption and special predestination, from eternity.
Thomas Bradbury wrote, "Through the perfection of His
righteousness -- the preciousness of His blood -- the power of His resurrection
-- and the prevalency of His intercession, He brings forth the progeny of grace
(His Seed – A Seed To Serve Him) from the womb of the eternal purpose, to
serve, praise and adore the eternal Three in One to all generations."
1. In us Christ sees the fruit
and satisfaction of his soul's travail.
2. In him is all our salvation
(1 Cor.
·
In him we were chosen to salvation.
·
In him we have been redeemed from all sin. In him we are begotten again
unto a lively hope by his resurrection.
·
In him we have been quickened into spiritual life by his Spirit.
·
In him we have been born again never to die.
·
In him we are saved!
·
He carries us in the bosom of his everlasting love.
·
He washed us from every stain of sin in his own precious blood.
·
He has justified us with his spotless righteousness.
·
He shall at last present us faultless to the Father in perfect holiness
(Heb
Why did Christ become the
Servant of God? Because he loved his Father, he loved his wife, and he loved
his children.
Now, there is one more thing about this
Servant of God who is our Savior. Look at Exodus 21:6. “He shall serve forever.”
V. Fifth, our
Lord Jesus Christ shall serve forever.
How delightful and blessed
it is to our hearts to see the willingness, the delight of Christ to bow, to
humble himself, to become obedient to the Father's will, to suffer and die for
us. Oh, how he loved us!
·
He said, "I will not go out
free!"
·
He had his ear bored. -- He solemnly and publicly (before the Father,
before the Spirit, before the heavenly angels) declared himself to be Jehovah's
Servant forever, and never had a second thought!
A.
A human body was prepared for the Son of God and he
came into this world as Jehovah’s Servant in that body. – “A body hast thou
prepared me!”
What a glorious sight for
the comfort of every believing heart! -- The Son of God wears and forever
dwells in a human body!
·
A REAL HUMAN HEART to feel the sorrows and
sufferings of his loved ones in this world.
·
REAL HUMAN EYES to watch over his people,
to weep with those that weep, to weep for those who cannot weep for themselves.
·
REAL HUMAN EARS ever attentive to the cries
of his beloved.
·
REAL HUMAN HANDS to
minister to the necessities of his family.
·
REAL HUMAN FEET frequently weary in errands
of mercy for his beloved.
·
REAL HUMAN LIPS ever filled with grace,
ever flowing with words of love and life for his chosen.
·
A REAL HUMAN SOUL which was troubled and
sorrowful, even unto death, that his sinful, sorrowing people might be sinless
and joyful to all eternity.
Blessed be God, yonder in
heaven's highest glory is a man, a real man, Jesus, the Christ, Jehovah's
Servant, my Savior!
B.
Once more, pause to consider what our Lord Jesus has
done and is doing for chosen sinners as Jehovah’s Servant.
1. He brought in everlasting
righteousness by his obedience to God as our Representative.
2. He put away sin by the
sacrifice of himself.
3. He lives in heaven, to make
intercession for transgressors, according to the will of God.
4. He sends his Spirit to
regenerate and save his redeemed ones, in the time of love.
Illustration: David to Ziba, -- "Fetch Him!"
5.
He keeps and preserves his
believing people secure unto eternal glory.
6.
He rules the world for the
good of his redeemed ones.
7.
He is coming again to gather
his elect up to glory.
(1 Corinthians
15:24-28) "Then cometh the end, when he shall have
delivered up the kingdom to God, even the Father; when he shall have put down
all rule and all authority and power.
{25} For he must reign, till he hath put all
enemies under his feet. {26} The last enemy that shall
be destroyed is death. {27} For he
hath put all things under his feet. But when he saith all things are put under him, it is manifest that he is excepted, which did put all things under him. {28} And when all things shall be
subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put
all things under him, that God may be all in all."
(Ephesians 5:25-27) "Husbands, love your wives, even as
Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; {26} That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of
water by the word, {27} That he might
present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any
such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish."
(Jude 1:24-25) "Now unto him that is able to keep you
from falling, and to present you faultless
before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, {25} To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and
power, both now and for ever. Amen."
All praise
to Christ, THE SERVANT! "Unto him that loved us,
and washed us from our sins in his own blood, And hath made us kings and
priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and
ever. Amen" (Rev. 1:5-6).
Whatever our need may be, it is supplied from the unfailing
stores of our heavenly Bridegroom. The time of our destitution and helplessness
gave him opportunity to exercise his love and care. When we were lost and
loathsome, he came to us in love. When we were naked, he clothed us with the
garments of salvation.
Isaiah 61:10 -- "I will greatly rejoice in the LORD,
my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me with the garments of
salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of righteousness, as a bridegroom
decketh himself with ornaments, and as a bride adorneth herself with her
jewels."
When hungry, he feeds us. When fainting, he restores us. When
helpless, he upholds us. Do we long for glory? He will bring us in!
C.
Now, look at the last two
words of our text. -- "For Ever" (Luke
(Luke 12:37) "Blessed are those servants, whom the lord when he cometh shall find
watching: verily I say unto you, that he shall gird himself, and make them to
sit down to meat, and will come forth and serve them."
Time will not terminate his service of love. In the ages to come
God will show the exceeding riches of his grace toward us through Christ Jesus.
When time shall be no more, the Lamb in the midst of the throne will feed us,
lead us to fountains of living water, and bless us with eternal joy in his
presence! -- “FOR
EVER!”
Application:
1.
Would you be partaker of
these rich blessings of grace and life? Come to Christ!
2.
Forever adore, love and
trust Christ, who stooped so low to lift us so high.
3.
If Christ our Savior is the
Servant of God, let us imitate him as we endeavor to serve our God and one
another. "Let this mind be in you,
which was also in Christ Jesus." -- (Phil. 2:5).
[1] “Nakedness” refers to sin. Noah’s son Ham uncovered his father’s sin.

Ever remember, the law of God, these civil statutes, ceremonial rites, and all
the commandments were messianic. They were given to
