Explain the significance of the conversion of Saul of Tarsus?

The conversion was significant because if Saul didn’t change into Paul the bible wouldn’t be the same. Jesus called for the conversion when he announced “the kingdom of god is at hand. Repent and believe in the gospel!” (Mark 1:15). Saul was against Christians and he had devoted his life to getting rid of Jesus followers this included killing. One day Saul was struck by a blinding light, It was a vision of Jesus. Jesus sent a messenger to pray for saul so he could see again and from then on Saul changed his name to Paul and became Jesus’s messenger and preached to many cities and towns.

In the three years they first went to Tarsus then to Derbe and Iconium. He then went through Phrygia and Galatia, Paul fell ill in Galatia so he stayed there for a while before heading off to Troas. While in Troas, Paul had a vision from a man in Macedonia needing help so that where Paul went next. Paul was imprisoned while there. He then travelled to Athens and Corinth. He stayed here for a year and a half while he wrote his first two epistles to the church of Thessalonica. He then went to Ephesus and then concluded his journey in Jerusalem.]]> 2016-11-17 12:40:05 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138368548 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138369068 2016-11-17 12:42:17 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138369068 Post 4-The Main purpose of Paul's messages & main messages in hispreachings? 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138371695 The main purpose of Paul's letters were to address Theological issues and to give advice for the way people were living. He wrote his messages to the towns, cities and churches. Paul wanted everyone to live the rules of faith, not the rules of jews. His letter were also written to identify the expectations of christianity. The main message paul preached was the cross of the lord Jesus Christ.]]> 2016-11-17 12:53:12 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138371695 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138372421 2016-11-17 12:55:57 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138372421 Post 5-A cultural challenge for Paul that is revealed in one of his epistles: 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138553748 A challenge for Paul was revealed in his letters. The point of this epistle was to address the issue about Gentiles, Christianity and the Jewish laws. This issue was because a group of jewish christians went to Galatia and preached that to be saved they needed to follow the Jewish law. The Galatians accepted the preaching, so Paul wrote a letter arguing this and the point of view of the Galatians and how they need to follow the laws of faith. The Jewish Christians had challenged his honour and also the fact that a circumcision was not required of Gentile converts. Paul wrote a letter defending himself from these statements.]]> 2016-11-17 20:14:19 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138553748 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138556387 2016-11-17 20:23:30 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138556387 Post 6- Paul’s messages for us today? 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138558326 In the Philippians passage the main messages were being united with christ. Another message was for us to be humble and value others over yourself. Paul also wants us to let christ take hold of us and to present our prayers through prayer to him and be thankful this is so God's peace will forever be in our heart and mind. He want us to put what he has taught us into practice, and then God’s peace will be with us. I believe these messages should be used in people today as many people aren’t humble and put themselves over others. Also a lot of people aren’t thankful so if they put these qualities into practice it would make the world better, happier and friendlier. ]]> 2016-11-17 20:32:14 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138558326 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138559000 2016-11-17 20:34:56 UTC https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138559000 Bibliography 20evano https://padlet.com/20evano/ed56msz0bmds/wish/138559416 Reference
