Why should anyone who is a Christian have to say that?

What is a Christian if not a servant/slave of God.

 

Why haven't you explained your reasoning for making this request?

If a Person is a true Christian then they are Not a servant of God and they are Not a slave of God.. They have been lifted above those levesl to become adopted Children of God..

Romans 8: KJV

14 "For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. {15} For ye have not received the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. {16} The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:"

You are wrong.

Question: "What does the Bible say about being a servant / servanthood?"

Answer: 
The Bible has a great deal to say about servanthood because the central theme of the Bible is the Servant of all—Jesus Christ. “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). When we give Jesus Christ His rightful place as Lord of our lives, His lordship will be expressed in the way we serve others (Mark 9:35; 1 Peter 4:10; John 15:12-13). How can we demonstrate love for God? Our love for God will be expressed in our love for others. “For what we preach is not ourselves, but Jesus Christ as Lord, with ourselves as your servants for Jesus’ sake” (2 Corinthians 4:5).

True leadership is servanthood, and the greatest leader of all time is Jesus Christ. Servanthood is an attitude exemplified by Christ “who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but emptied himself, taking the form of a servant” (Philippians 2:6-7). The five words in the New Testament translated “ministry” generally refer to servanthood or service given in love. Serving others is the very essence of ministry. All believers are called to ministry (Matthew 28:18-20), and, therefore, we are all called to be servants for the glory of God. Living is giving; all else is selfishness and boredom.

It has been rightly stated, “Rank is given you to enable you to better serve those above and below you. It is not given for you to practice your idiosyncrasies” (General Bruce C. Clarke, USA, Ret). Let’s serve others by serving Christ (Colossians 3:23-24). God the Father has served us by sacrificing Christ on the cross for our sins, and we should serve others by giving the gospel and our lives to them (1 Thessalonians 1:5-6). Those who desire to be great in God’s kingdom must be the servant of all (Matthew 20:26).

Yes we are done of God, but as Rom 6:22 says we are also servants/slaves of God.

 

As Sons, co heirs with Jesus we have enormous privileges but they do not take away our responciblity to live for, to serve Jesus and as Phillipians 2:1-6 says copy Jesus in the humility of your service.

The scriptures say that every knee shall bow down to him and confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. 

That time is coming for everyone at the time of their death, those who believe in him they cannot be judged as they are under his blood, and their sins at the time after their death are not counted against them. 

This is the primary judgment and they pass it...because of their faith in him...

Now what it remains for those who are Heavenly bound is the other secondary judgments which are quite a few, and which do not affect and change our Heavenly destinationon or our Heavenly Inheritance...

We read in many places in the scriptures of Jesus Christ desiring us to put on, or to be clothed with fine white linen.

This is synonymous to having our own righteousness, to the degree that we can say or rather Jesus Christ can say that our own righteousness is as a robe of fine white linen...

This is synonymous to keeping ourselves clean from sin, or repenting from sin. 

This is important to Jesus Christ because those believers are close to him in this life and the life in Heaven, also another group of believers are those who have died as martyrs for the faith..

To make it plain all believers are under the blood of the Lamb, but not all believers are clothed in the same kind of robe.  

One example is of a believer who is under the blood of Jesus Christ but he is at the same time cloth with the robe of the adulterers, and in that condition he may die even as a martyr for his faith in Jesus Christ. And then receive from Jesus Christ the robe of the martyr of his faith, he was put to death because of his faith.

In religious genocides they only consider the faith of the person, they do not take into account his own righteousness or his denomination. 

To Jesus Christ they still died because of their faith in him. 

The other group who appears before Jesus Christ that time with a bended knee also confessed Jesus as Lord, but it does not count to be saved because  they died in unbelief, in denial...and are lost...

It also says that when we believe in Jesus Christ we also have the Heavenly Father, because the Heavenly Father is the one who honor Jesus Christ and he made him Lord and Judge and King over all, and gave him all authority that every knee shall bow down to him. He is above all. 

While we live we are also judge for our good or selfish or not good works. And is mentioned in that time in Heaven. 

To make it simple, a believer may have earn more that one robe in his life, and they are changing as those who are under the blood with the robe of the sinner of different situations, they come to repentance and recieved a another robe synonymous to their repentance.
