The Bible does not specifically condemn the practice of slavery BUT It gives instructions on how slaves should be treated.
(Deuteronomy 15:12-15; Ephesians 6:9; Colossians 4:1) What many fail to understand is that slavery in biblical times was very different from the slavery that was practiced in the past few centuries in many parts of the world. Slavery in the Bible was not based exclusively on race. People sold themselves as slaves when they could not pay their debts or provide for their families. In New Testament times, sometimes doctors, lawyers, and even politicians were slaves of someone else. Some people actually chose to be slaves so as to have all their needs provided for by their masters.

Now Let's Look At A COMMON Verse Used To Say That The Bible Supports Slavery...

Exodus 21:20–21 says, “Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property.” In the social structure of ancient Israel, physical punishment was considered the appropriate response for acts of disobedience and rebellion. In Exodus 21, slave owners are limited in what they can do: if the master goes too far and the slave dies, the master will be punished. The punishment for the slave owner might even include the death penalty for murder.
 
Slavery has been a fact of human existence for almost as long as the human race has been in existence. Physical punishment to enforce compliance has been part of slavery for just as long. Corporal punishment has also been used in situations other than slavery. The Bible does not forbid slavery, nor does it demand that every slave owner who wants to please God must immediately emancipate his slaves. Instead, the Bible at every turn calls for a treatment of slaves that would have been more humane than any found in the culture at large.
 
When God created humans, He created them in His image (Genesis 1:26). Every life is of great value, and God loves all individuals.
Another Form Of Slavery Is Human Trafficking. This Type Of Slavery Is Overlooked By The Mass Majority Today. We must speak out on behalf of those in need (Proverbs 31:8-9). we must act to help those in bondage. These actions can involve a variety of means, ranging from volunteering in an anti-trafficking/anti-slavery organization to financial giving to teaching about the topic where you live. We have a responsibility to pray, to speak out against human trafficking and modern slavery
