"Though I might be very bold in Christ to command you..."
Text: Philemon 8
SENSITIVITIES IN RELATIONSHIP
Paul was well aware of his authority as an apostle of the Lord Jesus Christ. Yet, being sensitive he never abused his rights. This is well exemplified in the following text:-
“Therefore, though I might be very bold in Christ to command you
what is fitting, yet for love’s sake I rather appeal to you- being such
a one as Paul, the aged, and now also a prisoner of Jesus Christ.”
Philemon 8-9
