Paul’s Story and Ours
Passage: Acts 22:1-21
We have before us one of the most famous conversion stories in the history of Christianity. It is so important it is told three times in the book of Acts.
One scholar said after the death and resurrection of Jesus there is no greater event in human history than the conversion to Christianity of Saul of Tarsus. Another called him the second founder of Christianity. Paul turned Christianity from a little Jewish sect into a world religion.
“The story of Paul’s conversion from a devout Jew, violently persecuting believers in Jesus, to a devout Christian, fearlessly spreading the Gospel against all opposition,” is unparalleled in church history (MD Harris).
In fact, our conversion is tied to Paul’s conversion.
