Day 45 — Saul Is Baptized and Preaches (Acts 9:17-22) | June 9
from Acts Daily Devotional Podcast · host Derek Sanford
Ananias walked through the door and spoke the most unexpected word Saul had ever heard: "Brother." Three days earlier, Saul was hunting Christians. Now a Christian was calling him family. Scales fell from his eyes, and almost immediately the former persecutor began proving in the synagogues that Jesus is the Messiah. The same intellectual firepower that had driven his persecution was now deployed for the gospel. In this episode, we see the most dramatic transformation in the New Testament unfold in real time. A changed life is one of the most powerful evidences for the gospel. How do you argue with a terrorist who became a preacher?
