Galatians 1:6-24 "A Changed Life" 11/12/2023

We have been talking a lot about Paul and there is a reason for that…out of the 27 books that make up the NT…Paul wrote 13 of them.
And if you count Hebrews…as some do…than he wrote 14.
God used Paul to write half of the NT…and that illustrates how dramatically his life had changed.
Let’s take a few minutes and look at the life of Paul…because the route his life was taking him…wasn’t leading him be the author of 13 NT books.
Paul was born Saul…in Tarsus of Cilicia (a province of modern-day Turkey).
He may have been born around the same time as Jesus.
Tarsus at the time of his birth was part of the Roman empire…making Saul, a Roman citizen from birth.
By the age of five Saul was would have been studying the OT Scriptures along with the Hebrew language.
