About

During Paul’s lifetime, the church entered fully into the Gentile world.  Paul’s conversion was not merely a call to personal sanctification; it was both a germinal source to aid Paul in the maturation of his gospel and an apocalyptic command to carry that gospel to the ends of the earth before the imminent return of Christ. Characteristic of Paul’s preaching was his emphasis on the risen Christ as the Center of a new existence radically transformed by the death and Resurrection of Christ- a reality Paul experienced through his transformation “into Christ”.
