ONESIPHORUS

(Gk. Onēsiphóros)

A Christian from Ephesus who found Paul in Rome and aided him during his imprisonment (2 Tim. 1:16-18). The name means “profit-bearing” and may indicate a slave or freedman. The phrasing of 1 Tim. 1:18 and the greetings to his household in v. 16; 4:19 suggest that he may have already died. Onesiphorus plays a significant role in the apocryphal Acts of Paul.

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
