PHILEMON Traditional Cache

The highway that you are travelling on is called the Northern Woods and Waters Route. You cannot travel this route without being in awe of the great beauty and diversity both in plants and animals created for our use and enjoyment. There are those that would have you believe everything happens by chance, others divine direction, I will leave it up to you. Be blessed during your ride and soak in your surroundings, stop for a few caches or them all.

The bible is divided into the old and new testaments that together make up a total of 66 books of the bible. It is said that each book’ author was inspired to do his writings without consult with the other authors yet the Bible seems to flow from beginning to end.

I have used each book as the title for a cache along this route and hope you can learn a little about the bible as you cache on! Cache type varies as you travel.

About 60 A.D. Paul is writing to Philemon, probably a wealthy member of the Colossian church, about the slaves that these Christians have, calling the slaves their brothers in Christ. Slavery was seen as a barrier that was separating Christians.
