Deep dives

The Conversion of Paul

The apostle Paul's conversion from persecutor of Christians to one of the greatest theologians is seen as a significant transformation that requires an extraordinary event as an explanation. Paul's own testimony, as well as accounts in Acts and his letters, establish his claim of encountering the risen Jesus on the road to Damascus. The fact that he suffered greatly for his faith and was willing to die as a martyr further supports the authenticity of his conversion experience.
