Saint Paul, the Right Man at the Right Time was written to get a comprehensive biographical sketch of Saint Paul including his early life, his life as a Pharisee, his direct contact with Jesus Christ on the Damascus road, his conversion from the many teachings of the Torah, and his God-given mission as the Apostle to the Gentiles.
The times in which he lived proved that God chose him as his apostle due to his brilliance and his ability to communicate in both written and verbal forms, not only in Hebrew, but in the Greek language, which was important in that historical time. His words and letters are as relevant today as they were in the first century of Christianity, and his teachings are still presented in Protestant churches and sermons today. My hope is one may read Saint Paul, the Right Man at the Right Time and have the ability to teach a basic class on the life of Saint Paul and encourage students to further their understanding of the importance of this biblical figure. The work touches on his theology, but I was more intent on giving the reader a personal overview of the man we know as Saint Paul. He very much lived in a time trying to spread a new religion in Christ that was very different from the belief systems of the Jews and Gentiles in the first century.
