"I appeal to you for my son, Onesimus."
"Receive him as you would receive me." "For this perhaps is why he was parted from you for a while." "You are no longer a slave, but a beloved brother." "I trust that you will do even more than I say." "I would have been glad to keep him with me." "Prepare a guest room for me." "If he has wronged you at all, or owes you anything, charge that to my account." "I am sending him back to you, sending my very heart." Grace_to_you_and_peace_from_God_our_Father_and_the_Lord_Jesus_Christ. |
