Acts 9 Summary

Saul Converted on the Road to Damascus

Saul breathes murderous threats against the church. A light from heaven blinds him; the voice: Saul, why do you persecute me? Who are you, Lord? I am Jesus. Ananias is sent to restore his sight. Saul is baptized. He immediately preaches that Jesus is the Son of God. The persecutor becomes the preacher.
