Sermon Text: Philemon (all verses)
Topic: An Unlikely Exchange
Discussion Questions:
1) What changed for Onesimus that Paul now called him “his heart” and “useful”? How does this affect how we see fellow Christians?
2) Why does Paul plead instead of command Philemon to receive Onesimus? How does Paul encourage Philemon to receive Onesimus? How does this change how we approach people to act in love?
3) Why would Paul be willing to take on Onesimus’ debts to Philemon? How does this inform the way we see those who are indebted to us?
Outline:
From a slave to a brother
From useless to useful
From debt to freedom
