What kind of account does Paul give in the letter to the Galatians?
In the letter to the Galatians, Paul gives his own inspired account of his conversion, explaining his tremendous turnaround from a zealous Jew practicing Judaism to becoming the apostle of the Gentiles through God's grace and saving work on the road to Damascus.
Les explains that the study is in Galatians, where Paul’s own account connects with Saul’s conversion in Acts chapter 9. He notes that Paul was inspired by the Holy Spirit to write this letter, and that it describes a tremendous turnaround: Paul had been a zealous Jew practicing Judaism and probably high in the religious hierarchy, but God’s grace saved him on the road to Damascus, and he then became the apostle of the Gentiles.
