Meanwhile, Saul was still breathing out murderous threats
against the Lord's disciples.
He went to the high priest and
asked him for letters to the synagogues in Damascus,
so that if he found any there who belonged to the Way,
whether men or women, he might take them as prisoners to Jerusalem.
As he neared Damascus on his journey,
suddenly a light from heaven flashed around him.
He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him,
"Saul, Saul, why do you persecute me?"
"Who are you, Lord?" Saul asked.
"I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting," he replied.
(Acts 9:1-5)
“the church, which is his body”
(Ephesians 1:23)
Now I rejoice in what I am suffering for you,
and I fill up in my flesh what is still lacking
in regard to Christ’s afflictions,
for the sake of his body, which is the church.
(Colossians. 1:24)
With Love for Jesus Christ,
