How did Saul become Paul? How did Saul of Tarsus, disciple of Gamaliel, rabid persecutor of Christ and the Church, become St. Paul the Apostle to the Gentiles, the man who would spread the gospel across the Roman world and have almost half the New Testament attributed to his pen? Quite a reversal, wouldn't you say? And it happened almost overnight.
In the first two chapters of the book of Galatians Paul is defending his gospel by defending his apostleship. He received his gospel, just like his office, by revelation of Jesus Christ. In this Bible study we discuss what Paul meant by that. We also take the time to look at his anger and hatred of Christ and the gospel and what it stemmed from. Then we see what changed him. How will the resurrected Christ change you?
