Paul’s Suffering Service
Saul of Tarsus had a remarkable experience as he traveled to Damascus to persecute the followers of Jesus Christ. A light from heaven blinded his eyes and he heard God call his name. This zealous Pharisee was forever changed. The man whose whole life and full energy was committed to opposing the gospel now became its greatest defender. The man who despised the Savior now declared “for to me to live is Christ.”
