Alive: 21 Reasons to Believe in the Resurrection of Jesus ChristНамуна

Reason 15: Jesus’ enemy, Paul, was converted
Paul was a devout Jewish Pharisee who routinely persecuted and killed Christians (Phil. 3:4–6; Acts 7:54–60). After an encounter with the risen Christ, Paul (formerly Saul) was converted and became the most dynamic defender and expander of the church. (Acts 9). Had Jesus not truly risen from death, it is absurd to assume that Paul would ever have worshiped Him as God, particularly when Paul rightly believed that worshiping a false God would send one into the eternal flames of hell. Paul (when he was Saul) hated Jesus and would never have changed unless Jesus had risen from death to prove Paul wrong. Furthermore, Paul insisted that Jesus had risen in almost all his New Testament letters.
Read Acts 9 and think about what God saved Paul from? What has He saved you from?
