[Pressing-On]

I had someone say that Apostle Paul, former Saul, had a devil and was a horrible man.

I believe he was simply acting on his loyalty to the Law of Moses in not accepting the new Christian faith - until - he met up with God on the road to Damascus.

Yes, he was a horrible man to the Christians, but I believe God used his fervency to advance the Kingdom of God. I believe that God saw an instrument he could use for His glory.

How could someone with a devil do a 180 simply by hearing, "Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?"

He responds - "Who are you Lord?"

"I am Jesus whom thou persecutest:"

In a 180, Saul says, "Lord, what wilt thou have me to do?"

JMO, but on reading this account, I don't put Saul in the category of the Pharisees seeking self-importance, greed and power nor do I view him as devil-possessed.

Opinions?
