MelVee Sabbath School || Ln5 - Qrt 3 2018 || The Conversion of Paul

Description

We are back in South Africa and this Melusi Ndhlalambi is joined by Frank Awuah and Shaun Ryan as they discuss lesson 5 or 13 on the Series from the Book of Acts. Using Acts 9:15 as an anchor verse the team unpacks how the conversion of Saul of Tarsus (called Paul) was one of the most remarkable events in the history of the apostolic church. God chose him as an instrument to proclaim the name of Jesus Gentiles and their kings and to the people of Israel.” Paul had been an incorrigible opponent to the early believers, and the harm he could have done to the infant church was enormous. He had both determination and official support to destroy the church. Yet, he responded faithfully to God’s call on the road to Damascus and became the greatest of the apostles. “From among the most bitter and relentless persecutors of the church of Christ, arose the ablest defender and most successful herald of the gospel.”—Ellen G. White, Sketches from the Life of Paul, p. 9. Paul’s previous actions in persecuting the early church would always bring him a deep sense of his own unworthiness, though he could say with a still deeper sense of gratitude that God’s grace to him had not been in vain. With Paul’s conversion, Christianity changed forever. CLICK Link to watch the lesson https://youtu.be/3TGeTCA4NiA, and study this lesson to prepare for Sabbath, August 4.
