Captured by Christ | Acts 9:1-9 | Manny Pereira

From adversary to apostle, the story of Paul’s conversion is one of the most dramatic in all of Scripture and history. Thick with irony, the passage that introduces this tremendous transformation chiefly reveals the reigning Christ. Christ’s love outshines Paul’s hatred. Here sovereign grace shines brilliantly bright. Christ is not merely witnessed in this passage—He reigns, He speaks, He redeems. An enemy is captured by and for Christ, for the glory of God and the everlasting joy of the captured.
