Philemon 12

I am sending him--who is my very heart--back to you
Philemon’s runaway slave had come to Christ under Paul and had become very useful as a helper in Paul’s ministry. But the social and legal obligation the slave now faced had to be set right, and it proved a perfect opportunity to demonstrate the effect that the Gospel has upon those who believe. The social order that promotes slavery should be challenged. The personal cost of following Christ could be demonstrated from several angles. Philemon’s dilemma could find parallels in many rich men in his day and continue in influence for centuries to come. God made Paul see the importance and gave him wisdom to approach a touchy subject carefully. We learn from him and from Philemon and from Onesimus as well, all of them with a sincere desire to please and glorify their Lord Jesus.
