I see the Road to Damascus...and yes I have seen what the media is saying but I am putting my trust in Jesus/Yeshua. On the road to Damascus 1. A supernatural event 2. God spoke in Hebrew to Saul 3. It is hard to kick against the prick Paul(Saul): his first name was Saul. Both of his parents were Jews. He was sent to Jerusalem for his education, and became a very learned and prominent Pharisee. What befell him as he journeyed to Damascus, is related three times in the Acts, first by the historian in his own person, then in two addresses made by St. Paul at Jerusalem after our Saviour/Messiah's death, which makes him speak of himself "born out of due time." The Acts of The Apostles: None of the 12 apostles were, humanly speaking, fitted to preach the gospel to the cultivated Gentile world. God raised up another instrument among the highly educated and zealous Pharisees. The preparation of Saul of Tarsus for the work to be done, the progress of that work in his hand, his journeyings, preachings and perils, his stripes and imprisonments, his testifying in Jerusalem, and being brought to testify at Rome, these are subjects ...
... of the latter half of the book, of which the great central figure is the Apostle Paul. THE ACTS OF THE APOSTLES: Acts 26:12: Whereupon as I went to Damascus with authority and commission from the chief priests, Acts 26:13: At midday, O king, I saw in the way a light from heaven, above the brightness of the sun, shining round about me and them which journeyed with me. SUPERNATURAL EVENT "LIGHT FROM HEAVEN" "ABOVE THE BRIGHTNESS OF THE SUN" "SHINING ROUND ABOUT ME & THEM WHICH JOURNEYED WITH ME" Acts 9:3: And as he journeyed, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven. Acts 22:6: And it came to pass, that, as I made my journey, and was come nigh unto Damascus about noon, suddenly there shone from heaven a great light round about me. MIRACLES, Miracles In The Upper Regions, & In The Atmosphere, MIRACULOUS LIGHT Acts 26:14 - 15 verse 14: And when we were all fallen to the earth, I heard a voice speaking unto me, and saying in the Hebrew tongue, Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me? it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks. verse 15: And I said, Who art thou, Lord? And he said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest. MIRACLES, "Phenomena(rare fact or event)" "VOICES" Acts 26:16-18 verse 16: But rise, and stand upon thy feet: for I have appeared unto thee for this purpose, to make thee a minister and a witness both of these things which thou hast seen, and of those things in the which I will appear unto thee; verse 17: Delivering thee from the people, and from the Gentiles, unto whom now I send thee, verse 18: To open their eyes, and to turn them from darkness to light, and from the power of Satan unto God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins, and inheritance among them which are sanctified by faith that is in me. OTHER NATIONS - Coversion of The Gentiles - His Commission Acts 22:15: For thou shalt be his witness unto all men of what thou hast seen and heard. Acts 22:21: And he said unto me, Depart: for I will send thee far hence unto the Gentiles. OTHER NATIONS - Conversion of The Gentiles - His Commission - Paul's Commission Acts 23:11: And the night following the Lord stood by him, and said, Be of good cheer, Paul: for as thou hast testifed of me in Jerusalem, so must thou bear witness also at Rome.
