SCRIPTURE
"Wherefore, though I have all boldness in Christ to enjoin thee that which is befitting," — Philemon 1:8 (ASV)
Wherefore, while I have great confidence in Christ to command thee. That is, “though I have authority so that I might justly command you, yet your love makes me prefer to entreat you.”
