Philemon #7
Paul has changed places with Onesimus, and taken on his debt. Paul identifies with Onesimus. Jesus said "I stand at the door and knock" (Rev 3:20). He is refering to individuals. Paul portrays Jesus Christ in His victorious undertaking.
- The work of Jesus Christ is grace; Paul appeals to Philemon in love and grace instead of demanding action (Phm 1:8-9). Grace is totally undeserved. You have to receive it.
- By regeneration, one is transformed from a guilty sinner to a beloved son; Paul expresses that with Onesimus' new birth, he is a new creation (Phm 1:10-11, 2Co 5:17).
- As children of God, we are dynamically equipped to serve Him; Onesimus is now equipped -- God transformed him and his circumstances (Phm 1:12-15; Rom 8:9-11, 1Co 12:4-7, Mar 13:34).
- Spiritual growth brings a gradual transformation into the likeness of Jesus Christ (Phm 1:16-19). Paul became like Christ the mediator.
- The focus of the abundant life is about giving not receiving (Phm 1:19-22). Paul wants spiritual profit, obedience and a place to stay (Rom 1:14).
Consider how much of your life the Lord has now.
