Philemon - Doing more than I say.....

Interesting parallel on today's readings...

Phm 1:10    I beseech thee for my son Onesimus, whom I have begotten in my bonds:

Phm 1:11    Which in time past was to thee unprofitable, but now profitable to thee and to me:

Phm 1:12    Whom I have sent again: thou therefore receive him, that is, mine own bowels:

Phm 1:13    Whom I would have retained with me, that in thy stead he might have ministered unto me in the bonds of the gospel:

Phm 1:14    But without thy mind would I do nothing; that thy benefit should not be as it were of necessity, but willingly.

Phm 1:15    For perhaps he therefore departed for a season, that thou shouldest receive him for ever;

Phm 1:16    Not now as a servant, but above a servant, a brother beloved, specially to me, but how much more unto thee, both in the flesh, and in the Lord?

Phm 1:17    If thou count me therefore a partner, receive him as myself.

Phm 1:18    If he hath wronged thee, or oweth thee ought, put that on mine account;

Phm 1:19    I Paul have written it with mine own hand, I will repay it: albeit I do not say to thee how thou owest unto me even thine own self besides.

Phm 1:20    Yea, brother, let me have joy of thee in the Lord: refresh my bowels in the Lord.

Phm 1:21    Having confidence in thy obedience I wrote unto thee, knowing that thou wilt also do more than I say.


Deu 15:1    At the end of every seven years thou shalt make a release.

Deu 15:2    And this is the manner of the release: Every creditor that lendeth ought unto his neighbour shall release it; he shall not exact it of his neighbour, or of his brother; because it is called the LORD'S release.

Deu 15:3    Of a foreigner thou mayest exact it again: but that which is thine with thy brother thine hand shall release;

Deu 15:4    Save when there shall be no poor among you; for the LORD shall greatly bless thee in the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee for an inheritance to possess it:

Deu 15:5    Only if thou carefully hearken unto the voice of the LORD thy God, to observe to do all these commandments which I command thee this day.

Deu 15:6    For the LORD thy God blesseth thee, as he promised thee: and thou shalt lend unto many nations, but thou shalt not borrow; and thou shalt reign over many nations, but they shall not reign over thee.

Deu 15:7    If there be among you a poor man of one of thy brethren within any of thy gates in thy land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, thou shalt not harden thine heart, nor shut thine hand from thy poor brother:

Deu 15:8    But thou shalt open thine hand wide unto him, and shalt surely lend him sufficient for his need, in that which he wanteth.

Deu 15:9    Beware that there be not a thought in thy wicked heart, saying, The seventh year, the year of release, is at hand; and thine eye be evil against thy poor brother, and thou givest him nought; and he cry unto the LORD against thee, and it be sin unto thee.

Deu 15:10    Thou shalt surely give him, and thine heart shall not be grieved when thou givest unto him: because that for this thing the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all thy works, and in all that thou puttest thine hand unto.

Deu 15:11    For the poor shall never cease out of the land: therefore I command thee, saying, Thou shalt open thine hand wide unto thy brother, to thy poor, and to thy needy, in thy land.

Deu 15:12    And if thy brother, an Hebrew man, or an Hebrew woman, be sold unto thee, and serve thee six years; then in the seventh year thou shalt let him go free from thee.

Deu 15:13    And when thou sendest him out free from thee, thou shalt not let him go away empty:

Deu 15:14    Thou shalt furnish him liberally out of thy flock, and out of thy floor, and out of thy winepress: of that wherewith the LORD thy God hath blessed thee thou shalt give unto him.

Deu 15:15    And thou shalt remember that thou wast a bondman in the land of Egypt, and the LORD thy God redeemed thee: therefore I command thee this thing to day.

Deu 15:16    And it shall be, if he say unto thee, I will not go away from thee; because he loveth thee and thine house, because he is well with thee;

Deu 15:17    Then thou shalt take an aul, and thrust it through his ear unto the door, and he shall be thy servant for ever. And also unto thy maidservant thou shalt do likewise.

Deu 15:18    It shall not seem hard unto thee, when thou sendest him away free from thee; for he hath been worth a double hired servant to thee, in serving thee six years: and the LORD thy God shall bless thee in all that thou doest.

Deu 15:19    All the firstling males that come of thy herd and of thy flock thou shalt sanctify unto the LORD thy God: thou shalt do no work with the firstling of thy bullock, nor shear the firstling of thy sheep.

Deu 15:20    Thou shalt eat it before the LORD thy God year by year in the place which the LORD shall choose, thou and thy household.

Deu 15:21    And if there be any blemish therein, as if it be lame, or blind, or have any ill blemish, thou shalt not sacrifice it unto the LORD thy God.

Deu 15:22    Thou shalt eat it within thy gates: the unclean and the clean person shall eat it alike, as the roebuck, and as the hart.

Deu 15:23    Only thou shalt not eat the blood thereof; thou shalt pour it upon the ground as water.


In some ways we are freely given slaves to sin or to Christ.
