Theme 1: Living out the goal of becoming more like Christ, involves encouraging fellow believers in their walk with Christ. Paul stated that he thanked God for he heard of Philemon's love for the saints and his faith in Christ. He stated that the saints had been refreshed by Philemon and that he was encouraged to hear a good report of what was happening in the Church.(1:4-7).
Theme 2: As Christians we need to care for others and to treat each person equally. Paul encouraged Philemon to take his run away slave Onesimus , as he was even more valuable to him as he was a brother in Christ. (1:8-12).
