Overview

Paul was an intense person who lived according to his convictions. He was not prejudice. Paul described himself as one of Israel, of Benjamin, of the Hebrews, and a Pharisee (Phil. 3:5). Paul shows himself to the centurion and the Roman headman as a "free born" Roman (Acts 22:28). He defends himself before his Jewish accusers as a man born a Jew of Tarsus (Acts 21:39). Also, he stated that he was a Pharisee (Acts 23:6). Paul talked about how his characteristic excitement profited greatly in the Jews' religion to the point he was better than the people he was equal with, and he knew he was more enthusiastic of his father's traditions (Gal. 1:14).

Paul had great commitment to his convictions which motivated his stance to defend the Law of Moses (Gal. 1:13). He used that to strengthen his loyalty to Christ after he was converted (2 Cor. 11:23-28).

Maybe you have been where Paul has. Maybe you have come from the same background. You can change your life and let Jesus impact you in such a way that God will use you to bring honor and glory to Him. Learning from Paul's life will strengthen any individual in their loyalty to Christ, and I pray this book will help do that to the end.
