PHILEMON SUMMARY
This book, which is again a letter, is written around 60 AD by Paul during his house arrest in Rome. Paul wrote this book to his friend Philemon who lived in Colosse, and this letter was probably sent to him along with the letter to the church there. This is shortest of all letters written by Paul. Philemon’s slave Onesimus run away and came to Paul and sought refuge. During his stay with Paul, he became a Christian. Onesimus was nevertheless the property of Philemon and Paul wrote to pave the way for his return to his master. Paul pleads with Philemon, the master of Onesimus a runaway slave to take him back as a brother in Christ.
CHAPTER WISE SUMMARY:
Chapter#1: Effectual, Profitable Christianity. Philemon’s Love And Faith. Philemon is encouraged to accept his slave Onesimus as a brother. Paul And Timothy’s Greeting To Philemon, Apphia, And Archippus. Final greetings.

A Synthesis of Religions: The Case of God
Praise belongs to God, the Lord of all realms, the Originator of the heavens and the earth, the One who shaped the human being from clay and breathed into him of His Spirit; the One who sent Messengers, one after another, bearing truth, guidance, and the balance, so that mankind may stand upon justice and not transgress its bounds.
Here is a discourse meant not to conquer but to illuminate, Not to divide but to gather, Not to exalt the writer but to exalt the Word of God. So approach with hearts unburdened, With intellects awakened, With spirits yearning for the Mercy of the All-Merciful. For the earth endures by His command, And knowledge is a trust, And every soul shall be returned to its Lord.
