In his letter to Philemon, Paul did not ask him to

A.

Grant freedom to his slave Onesimus

B.

Allow Onesimus become a servant of God

C.

Forgive Onesimus for his earlier misbehaviour

D.

Prepare a feast for him

Correct answer is D

The primary requests and appeals made by Paul in his letter to Philemon were related to Onesimus, Philemon's slave who had become a believer in Christ. Paul urged Philemon to forgive Onesimus for any past wrongdoing, to receive him back not as a slave but as a beloved brother in Christ, and to allow Onesimus to continue serving alongside Paul in ministry as a fellow servant of God. However, there is no mention or request for Philemon to prepare a feast for Paul in the letter.
