MacArthur claims that the Greek word doulos which is used a 150 time in the NT has been improperly translated as servant and that has negatively impacted how Christ-followers have viewed their identity.

That was the CONTEXT of the discussion, believers, and no believer is a 'slave' to Christ, he is a servant, since he still has volition and held responsible for his choices.
