Philemon

Paul writes to Philemon, a Christian leader, on behalf of Onesimus, a runaway slave who has become a believer. Paul appeals to Philemon to receive Onesimus not as a slave but as a beloved brother in Christ. He offers to personally cover any debts Onesimus owes and expresses confidence that Philemon will respond with grace. Paul closes with greetings and a request for Philemon to prepare a place for him, hinting at a future visit. The letter emphasizes forgiveness, reconciliation, and the transforming power of the gospel.For more resources to help your Bible reading:https://www.lincroftbiblechurch.org/biblereading
