How Reform Comes

This little letter, showing Paul

thought along three lines One
is the way Christianity comes TO
transform society. Christian re-
lislon. given its freedom. viii
do more than transform individu-
ais it viii change society When
Paul wrote this letter, slavery
was taken for granted every
where. Some of Paul's best
friends were slave owners as
Philemon was. Paul had no in
tention Of encouraging Oncsimus
TO stay in Rome Indeed ii would
seem he had challenged the slave
TO prove that his conversion was
genuine, by going back and giving
himself up. That was (say) around
62 A D. Nowadays in our Amer
lea slavery is thing Of the past,
SO far as law and enlightened pub
lie opinion are concerned. Chris
tians north and south are glad il is
gone Philemon, or rather the
ideas in the letter TO Philemon,
sowed the seed that resulted in
the vanishing Of slavery There we
learn that all Christians are broth
ers; that even a slave thiS would
have been news TO many Romans
and Creeks was a human soul
with human responsibilities and
rights Not even slave is or can

lands like Russia where Christian
religion has been crushed,
