The New Paradigm in Christ Rewrites Everything About Our Relationships

This is a beautiful real world manifestation of what this new paradigm that we were begging for coming out of the Old Testament looks like in action. If Philemon does it, it's going to change him forever. He not only forgives the wrong that he did, but restores him to that role of cherished family member of son. And further, this sets a trajectory for all of the justice that has been done and that has happened in the name of Christ throughout the centuries.
