Put It On My Account

Philemon 1:18

“But if he has wronged you or owes anything, put that on my account”.

Here Paul tells Philemon, to forgive the debt of his (Philemon’s) ex-slave Onesimus, by transferring the debt to his (Paul’s) account.

This is a beautiful picture of reconciliation. How a debt was paid, by someone willing to pay the price, to give new life freed from the past and to make peace.

The Truth

“Blessed are the peacemakers, For they shall be called sons of God.” (Matthew 5:9)
