Answer:

Christians justify slavery through the bible by taking when Jesus called them his chosen people, to mean that everyone else is their inferior and therefore put on the Earth by God for the sole purpose of serving the "chosen ones".

I hope this helps!

The Bible mentions somewhere something about "Serving your master." In addition to "Receiving an award."
