Saul, breathing threatening and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord, sets out for [[Damascus]] to apprehend any Christians whom he may find there. As he draws near to Damascus, the Lord Jesus speaks to him out of the heavens and converts him. [[Paul]] is baptized by Ananias at Damascus, and straightway for some days abides there, preaching in the [[synagogue]]s that Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He withdraws into Arabia; again returns to Damascus. It is only after three years that he goes up to Jerusalem. At Jerusalem Paul is at first distrusted by the disciples of Jesus; but after [[Barnabas]] narrates to them Paul's marvellous conversion, they receive Paul, and he preaches boldly in the name of Jesus.
