What does the Bible say about the conversion of Saul of Tarsus?

Answered in 3 sources

The Bible describes Saul's conversion in Acts 9, highlighting God's sovereign grace in transforming him from a persecutor to a preacher of the gospel.

In Acts 9, we see the dramatic conversion of Saul of Tarsus, who was fervently persecuting Christians. God intervened in a powerful way on the road to Damascus, shining a light from heaven that overwhelmed Saul and revealing Himself as the Lord he was resisting. This moment was not merely a human decision but a sovereign act of divine grace, demonstrating that God seeks and saves the lost, irrespective of their prior actions. Saul, who believed he was serving God by persecuting the church, was chosen by God to become a minister of the gospel, illustrating that no one is beyond the reach of God’s grace (Acts 9:1-20).
