Philemon 8-10

International Children’s Bible

Accept Onesimus as a Brother

⁸ There is something that you should do. And because of your love in Christ, I feel free to order you to do it. ⁹ But because I love you, I am asking you instead. I, Paul, am an old man now, and a prisoner for Christ Jesus. ¹⁰ I am asking you a favor for my son Onesimus. He became my son while I was in prison.
