From Murder to Messiah
Paul is a murderer of the disciples of Yeshua. The first time he’s mentioned in the New Testament is at the stoning of Stephen. He is actually on his way to persecute more Messianic Jews, with a letter of permission, from the high priest when he is knocked off his horse and hears Yeshua speak to him and call him to preach the Gospel to the Gentiles. He doesn't change his name from Saul to Paul, he doesn't convert from Judaism to Christianity but he does encounter Yeshua and turn his whole life to him and the preaching of the Gospel in the context of Judaism. Today, every Gentile who believes in Jesus believes because of Paul. He was the perfect combination of an educated Jew and Roman citizen whose zeal and passion for Yeshua, Judaism and the Torah brought thousands of people, Jews & Gentiles, to God!
