Who are the two greatest human beings other than Christ, according to Les?
Apart from Christ, the two greatest human beings ever to live are Moses and Paul. Moses is on the front side, while Saul, later called Paul, is on this side. God called Paul by grace, took him to Arabia, and poured out truths for his epistles.
Les says that other than Christ Himself, he thinks Moses and Paul are the two greatest human beings who have ever lived. Moses is on the front side, and Saul, or Paul as we now know him, is on this side. Les points out that God called Paul by His grace, brought him out of Damascus, and took him down into Arabia, probably to Mount Sinai, where he stayed three years. During that time alone, God was pouring out all the things that would later come from Paul's pen in his epistles—all except the prison epistles, which Les feels are further revelation, probably while Paul was imprisoned at Caesarea. After three years, Paul went up to Jerusalem to see Peter and stayed with him fifteen days, seeing none of the other apostles except James, the Lord's brother.
