Charge That to My Account and 10 Other Sermons

The first chapter is about the runaway slave, Onesimus (from the New Testament book, Philemon) and his encounter with the apostle Paul. Ironside describes the situation: “Onesimus did not take God into account, but nevertheless God’s eye was upon him when he left his home, and it followed him along the journey from Colosse to Rome. When he reached that great metropolis, he was evidently brought into contact with the very man through whom his master, Philemon, had been converted. Possibly Onesimus was arrested because of some further rascality, and in that way came in contact with Paul in prison, or he may have visited him voluntarily. At any rate, God, who knows just how to bring the needy sinner and the messenger of the Cross together, saw to it that Onesimus and Paul met face to face.”

Some of the other sermons in this book are: What Is the Gospel, and What Is It Not?, The Eternal Security of the Believer, Broken Vessels for Christ, The Father’s House, and Regeneration— “Ye Must Be Born Again.”
