Paul and the Road to Damascus – Mike Bennett lifehopeandtruth.com

Saul of Tarsus, later known as the Apostle Paul, initially emerged as a fervent adversary of the early Christian community, even participating in the stoning of Stephen (Acts 7:57-60). His hostility extended beyond, causing chaos and imprisonment for followers of the Way in Jerusalem (Acts 8:3). However, the trajectory of Paul’s life underwent a seismic shift during a journey to Damascus. A celestial light enveloped him, and he heard the voice of Jesus, questioning his persecution of the Lord. Blinded by the encounter, Paul repented and sought guidance. Ananias, initially hesitant due to Paul’s infamous reputation, received divine instruction to restore Paul’s sight. Paul’s repentance, baptism, and reception of the Holy Spirit marked a profound transformation. Commissioned by God, he embraced a new mission, turning from a persecutor to a proclaimer of Christ’s divinity (Acts 9:3-5, 22:1-21). This dramatic conversion underscored the immense power of God’s calling, a theme woven into Paul’s subsequent teachings. His journey exemplifies the redemptive potential of divine intervention, urging others to heed God’s call and embark on a transformative journey of faith (John 6:44). For those responsive to this miraculous calling, the prospect of eternal life as sons and daughters of God awaits (2 Corinthians 6:18).
