Paul, a man of passion who was transformed by God. Having been passionate about the execution of Christians, he changed to a life of spreading the gospel message. Initially Paul was entrenched in the Jewish cause, until by miraculous intervention he was used by God as the messenger of the Gospel to the non-Jewish community within Italy, Greece and Asia minor (Turkey). Through Paul’s life we see that “God’s people” are sometimes heading in an opposite direction; but God may have a different plan!
