By Pastor Jason Lim
Gospel magnanimity is the virtue of being great in mind and heart, refusing to be petty, because of the gospel.
Philemon is a short and personal letter by Paul to encourage Philemon to exercise gospel magnanimity. Instead of insisting on rights and justice, Paul calls Philemon to release, restore and reconcile his runaway slave, Onesimus.
We will see gospel magnanimity in the lives of Philemon, Paul and ultimately, Jesus Christ, in this message.
