History

meriva3 years ago
3 0

Workers hoped that labor unions would help them to receive better working conditions, increased wageas, and a reduced workload.

When labor unions started to develop, many workers faced unfair working conditions. This included roughly an 80-100 hour work week, low wages, and not safety standards at their potentially dangerous jobs. Since there was very little government intervention in business during this era, workers hoped that the creation of these labor unions would help to solve some of their work problems. However, in the beginning of this labor movement, unions and business owners/managers often fought. In several different instances, these confrontations turned violent.

In your own words, explain Paul's analogy to slavery. Use complete sentences.
Arisa [49]

Answer: In Paul's sense, slavery is an ineluctable part of human existence in which we have a choice of being a slave to sin or a slave to God. Becoming a slave means giving up all claims to status and relates to Christ's humble‐mindedness in Philippians. The slave is also a model of faithfulness, comparable with God's faithfulness to Israel and Christ's faithfulness to the mission given him by his Father. Being a slave (in Paul's sense) is at the heart of the Christian life, exemplifying the ‘obedience of faith’, for it is through this faithfulness that we become righteous.
