Jesus lead me here. I had never read Philemon before or even really heard it preached on. I am currently cultivating discipline through Christ Jesus to read my bible daily and wanted to start with chapters I hadn't read. Decided to watch a video to see what it was about before reading and now I am sitting here laughing at just how wonderful and glorious our Lord is in His gracious convictions. En route to forgiving someone now lol, will still read this book tonight. Thank you for the video!

I was awakened by a very bad dream this morning and found myself drowsily running my fingers in the pages of my Bible and then I saw this chapter. After reading the whole text, I knew that it meant something important more than what I just read. Now this video really helped me, and the message that it has is very relevant to my current situation. I feel blessed for I know that what just happened is the work God's Holy Spirit. May the grace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with your spirit.

Thank your for reading my testimony, also sorry for my bad grammar.

My grandpa went to be with the Lord recently, it’s been a few weeks. Today the Lord lead me to this book. My grandpa’s name is Filemón (Philemon in Spanish). What a beautiful book. Holy Spirit gave me a revelation about the scripture that says “it seems you lost Onesimus for a little while so you have have him forever”. Gives me encouragement that I will see my grandpa again. 🤍 I love you Grandpa Filemón De La Torre 🤍 I will see you again.

Wow I never heard nor seen this letter broken down like this. Thank you for taking the time to study and present what God has given you. God bless you all!

I love this, I read Philemon 3 times in the last week praying for revelation and understanding, and I did not pick up on ANY of this lol. I’m glad to have this YouTube channel as a resource

The parallel of Jesus taking on our sins and Paul taking on Onesimus's debt is a beautiful picture that I never realized. 😊

Whenever he said that Koinonia meant sharing, it blew my mind. I was acting in a Christian musical called Camp Koinonia several years ago and I thought it was a made up word. It perfectly matches the theme of the story we acted out in the play. So cool!

I read this letter so many times yet I never saw it as more than "nice words" that Paul wrote to someone.

Looking deeper into what is written can really shed more light on the biblical stories.

I appreciate the Bible Project for creating such compelling videos with animation. A friend of mine who is an atheist finds these videos quite fascinating when I share them with him. We engage in quite a few conversations concerning Christian Theology and the biblical texts. He takes more of a pragmatic and historical approach while I take more of a theological and philosophical approach to the text. We are both literalist in our interpretation of the text.

I have stop watching these videos at work, i can never hold back the tears. 😭

[ponderingpassages]

We can't wait to study this in our small group later this week. Thank you for beautiful outline of what appears to be a simple letter but is truly the Gospel in action!

[jeandukes]
