As Paul writes to defend the good news about Jesus he must address the issue of trustworthiness. Why should the Galatians listen to him instead of to the false teachers who have come along more recently? As he begins to address this question Paul reminds us of what he was like before he met Jesus, back in the days when he was known as Saul. As we follow that story through Acts 7 to 9 we see an account of violent, hateful behaviour that caused a huge amount of suffering to others.
How did Saul – a highly devoted student of God’s laws – end up doing these things? What can we learn about the trajectory of our own lives so that we don’t find ourselves behaving in ways we never wanted to behave?
