Philemon, A Christian Man

He was loved – and love is characteristic of the relationships of all in the Pauline circle of believers

He was loving – and demonstrated that love by opening his home to the saints and by refreshing the hearts of the saints

He was a man of faith – and demonstrated that faith in his priorities, his pleasures, his practices and his proclamation

He was a man of spiritual vigour – and demonstrated that vigour by spiritual growth and spiritual work
