The story of Saul’s conversion is probably one of the most startling and simultaneously encouraging stories in the entire Bible. It is startling because in this story, God executes his eternal plan of redemption in the life of a man who went from being the hunter and persecutor of early Christians to a radically transformed apostle of Jesus Christ. It is also deeply encouraging because in this story we are reminded that no one is beyond the power of the gospel; no matter what you have done, no matter how far you have fallen, God can still save you, he can still make you his own, and he can still use you in his great kingdom work. It is startling and amazing because here we see that salvation, from beginning to end, is a work of God’s grace. God’s grace is given to the undeserving, like Saul. God’s grace humbles people before it saves. God’s grace reveals the glory of Jesus, and God’s grace opens eyes to truly see. It all comes back to grace, and it is all seen in the conversion of Saul.Preacher: Jim de Witte Passage: Acts 9:1-19Support the show
