Someday between 31-36 AD.
It was a unprecedented mid-day in the life of a younger
man, a sworn enemy and persecutor of Christ and the toddler Christian Church referred to as “The Means”. This younger man was on his means to Damascus together with his companions for
arresting the Christians and committing them to jail. He had the authority of
the Chief Clergymen for the aim. This younger man was none however Saul of Tarsus, a Pharisee, effectively versed in
the Hebrew Previous Testomony
sacred Scriptures. However he made havoc on the toddler Church, getting into into each home and haling males
and girls committing them to jail.
As Saul and
his males have been
about to attain
the metropolis of Damascus, swiftly behold, a
shiny gentle from heaven, brighter than the solar surrounded Saul. Instantly, he fell to the floor
and heard a voice,
“Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me?” Saul was overtaken by helplessness and
panic and mentioned, “Who are you,
Lord?” Saul immediately obtained the reply,
“I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. It is tough so that you can
kick towards the pricks”. In that
breathtaking second, Saul
noticed the risen
Saviour, and one thing
extraordinary occurred in his coronary heart. The outcome was wonderful! Saul surrendered
his coronary heart to the Lord
Jesus Christ and adopted His directions.
The risen Saviour mentioned to Saul, “I have appeared to you, for that reason, to make you a minister
and a witness each of the issues which you have seen and of
the issues which
I will but reveal to you… to open
their eyes, with a view to flip them from darkness to gentle, and from the energy of Devil to God, that they
might obtain forgiveness of sins and an inheritance amongst these who are sanctified by religion in Me (Acts 26:12-18),
that by the work of the Spirit, the eyes of the understanding of those that are
blinded by Devil are enlightened; by means of the preaching of the Gospel.
Saul’s encounter with Jesus Christ reworked his life altogether. He obtained forgiveness of his
sins and skilled the enjoyment of salvation by trusting within the expiative work of Christ
on the cross. Saul was no
longer a persecutor of the Church.
He grew to become a reworked man of God, often known as Apostle
Paul, the best missionary ever identified within the historical past of the Church. He was
chosen by God for turning many from darkness to gentle and to ship them that are underneath the energy and management of Devil. God used the reworked Paul for
delivering hundreds of thousands of souls from the stronghold of Devil and main them to Christ. Moreover,
out of twenty-seven books
of the New Testomony, 13 got here to be written by Apostle Paul alone,
which stands as an eloquent testimony to the remodeling energy of God.
Expensive reader, God
is keen to rework you too when you commit your life to Jesus. God says,
“Come now and allow us to purpose collectively, although
your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; Although they’re purple
like crimson, they shall be as wool. God has permitted a person to purpose with Him (Genesis 18:23-32; Exodus 4:1-17;
Job 23:3-7; Micah 6:2). The loving God does not want any to
perish within the coming judgment, however all to repent their sins and expertise the
pleasure of salvation (2 Peter 3:9).
Expensive reader, when you have not but obtained the peace of mind of salvation, repent your
sins and obtain the Lord Jesus Christ
as your Saviour
proper now.
