Before we were saved, no matter what our lot in life was we were actually unprofitable to God, because our righteousness is “as filthy rags,” according to Isaiah 64:6.
Onesimus went from being a run-away, thieving slave, who had the potential of being judged according to the full penalty of the Law. Under Roman law, there were no limits to the punishment a slave master could inflict on a runaway slave. If caught, the master could choose to have the slave returned to them or put to death. This was sentence hanging over Onesimus’ head as he runs with his stolen possessions.
