Grace

Paul is a stirring lesson on God's grace. He, in the name of God, did everything in his power to destroy the church. Arresting Christians, complicit in their deaths, destroying families, so anti-Christ that he was not content to merely attack the church in Jerusalem. And? God showered him with grace and brought Him redemption. And? Used him mightily in the spread of the very Gospel he at one time strove to destroy. His teacher, Gamaliel, had told the Jewish leaders in Jersulam that if it was of God, they couldn't stop it. Guess what? Yes, God can save anyone. Don't stop praying for those you know who are resisting the Gospel.
And don't forget. It took just as much grace to save you as it did Paul. Share the Gospel with great humility of spirit.
