The Conversion of Saul: Lesson Ten

Mercy still reaches the persecutor.

Saul later said he had been a blasphemer, a persecutor, and injurious. But he obtained mercy.

1 Timothy 1:13 (KJV): Who was before a blasphemer, and a persecutor, and injurious: but I obtained mercy, because I did it ignorantly in unbelief.

Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners. Saul called himself the chief of them.

1 Timothy 1:15 (KJV): This is a faithful saying, and worthy of all acceptation, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners; of whom I am chief.

The gospel of Christ is still the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth.

Romans 1:16 (KJV): For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

The door has not changed. Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

Acts 2:38 (KJV): Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.
