Paul writes a personal letter to Philemon about his runaway slave Onesimus, who has become a believer and now a beloved brother. Paul appeals to Philemon to receive Onesimus back—not as a slave but as a brother in the Lord—and offers to cover any debts. This short letter demonstrates the gospel's power to transform social relationships.
