According to the Bible, can slave owners in the modern world be a child of God?

I guess we will find out, that is if people are willing to participate.

Are you actually asking if being racist follows God's will?

Why if a "libtard" can be saved so can a slave owner.

" But as many as received Him, to them He gave the authority to become children of God, to those who believe into His name,

Who were begotten not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God." (John 1:12,13)

Do you believe human trafficking is a "sin"?

No. I asked about owning slaved. You really need to work on your reading skills.

The only way a libtard can be saved would be if the libtard was no longer a libtard.

Does God require slave owners to free the slaves?

Of course it is if you are talking sex slaves.

What I had in mind was forced labour.

Forced labor would depend on how they were treated.

Ephesians 6

9 And, ye masters, do the same things unto them, forbearing threatening: knowing that your Master also is in heaven; neither is there respect of persons with him.

So having slaves is not, in and of itself, "sinful"?

Not according to the Bible.

You'd think that if having slaves was inherently sinful God would have instructed Christian slave owners to free their slaves.

How is being a slave owner an automatic default to being a racist? Try to elevate your thinking past the guilt of white American introspection and consider the topic holistically.
