Jesus "slaves obey your masters" Christ? Jesus Christ, who makes a whip in order to intimidate and beat the moneylenders? That guy?
Moreover, why aren't you taking god as your example? Is it because all the calls to genocide and slavery don't make your point for you as well as you'd like?
Let's also not forget the bit where he tells people that he's there not to bring peace, but a sword; and to turn the members of one's family against each other or else they can't be True Disciples .

How else do you think? the OT doesn't count anymore because Jesus came, and reasons...
Ignoring the bits in Matthew 5:18 ("For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not the smallest letter or stroke shall pass from the Law until all is accomplished,"), and John 10:35 ("The Scripture cannot be broken,"), and even calls to its authority when supposedly confronted by Satan himself in Matthew 4:4, 7, and 10. (4 But He answered and said, “It is written, ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.’ ” 7 Jesus said to him, “On the other hand, it is written, ‘You shall not put the Lord your God to the test.’ ”10 Then Jesus said to him, “Go, Satan! For it is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God, and serve Him only.’ ”)
