Paul the Apostle
Paul the apostle in the bible was a chosen vessel of God to preach the word of God for the salvation of the Gentiles. Paul as an Apostle of Gentiles and all
people who are not Israelite in flesh are called Gentile and the Apostle Paul
was in charge of that duty unlike to the other Apostles in the Bible, those
their duty are for Israelite but some epistles of the Apostles have universal
application which means those books might useful for all humanity without
disregarding the races throughout the world but some especially to the books of
the prophets on the Old Testament have application within the boundary of the
particular races especially for Israelite.
The
history of Apostle in the bible was a persecutor of the brethren of the Lord
Jesus Christ in the church of God and he was the one who voted to kill the Stephen
by stone. When he was not yet an Apostle of Christ, he was the responsible of
oppression of some brethren in the church but when he became Apostle of God;
he was subjected under the oppression like what he had done before that made by
the people those who are loyal in his former religion.
Since
he was the former persecutor of the brethren of the Lord Jesus Christ as wisdom
of God and the word of God; this type of act was changed when he was called by
the Lord Jesus Christ to become His apostle.
That
called was the responsible why he was ascended in the heaven and was taught by
the Lord Jesus Christ within three days and that man heard words that should
not speak by the people who live on the earth.
After
three days on the third heaven and after the preaching of the Lord Jesus Christ
in this Apostle; he was waked – up by the aid of one person and after all those
incidents; no one on the Apostles knew that this man is an Apostle.
There
were many years after that this man was acknowledged by some Apostles due to
they have no idea about this man. Even the members of the church talked about
him that according to them, "that this man was a former persecutor." The
apostle Paul admitted those incidents that he mentioned to his epistle on the
Galitians 1:13.
This
Apostle compare to the other Apostles had more epistles for the brethren of the
Lord Jesus Christ and the next Apostle that had more epistles compare to the
other was the Apostle John.
