The morality we go by is certainly not determined by something concrete from the divine. If slavery is wrong, how did God let you know?

Because Jesus' message contained things like "love your neighbor as yourself", the beatitudes (Matthew 5), meekness, turning the other cheek, 'fruits of the spirit', etc. The path that Jesus wants us to walk has no room for things like slavery. That is why I feel confident in "backing into" God's position on slavery in the OT.
