Have you ever seen a person make 180 degree turn? Thats what happened to Saul the Pharisee. He went from being the persecutor of Christians to being the defender of Christianity. After his extraordinary conversion to Christianity, this figure, who had once imbued Christians in the first century with fear, became the most avid evangelist instilling fear in the hearts of enemies of Christ. Paul the Convert traveled all over the Roman Empire to proselytize people for Christianity. Not only that, Apostle Paul was obsessive about preserving the purity of the Gospel as passed down from Jesus of Nazareth. In his struggle to preserve the Truth, Saint Paul spoke out and even publicly humiliated major Christian leaders. There were those in the early Church who were pushing forward heresies. This book of poetic reflections on the Book of Galatians examines Apostle Pauls struggle to defend the purity of Christs original message of salvation. The reader will come to understand how Saint Paul was a subversive for the sake of the Gospel, trying to purify Christianity from within and to spread it throughout the land.Kim, Heerak Christian is the author of 'Paul the Subversive A Poetic Reflection on Galatians' with ISBN 9780595194230 and ISBN 0595194230.
