1 Timothy 6:2
Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.
from Serving with Honor, 1 Timothy 6:1-2
What it says

Those with believing masters must not show less respect because they are brothers, but serve them all the more, since those who receive the service are beloved believers.

What it is doing

It applies shared faith not to entitlement but to deeper service.

In context

1All who are under the yoke of slavery should regard their masters as fully worthy of honor, so that God’s name and our teaching will not be discredited. 2Those who have believing masters should not show disrespect because they are brothers, but should serve them all the more, since those receiving their good service are beloved believers. Teach and encourage these principles.
