Saul persecuted the church.  He was confident in his interpretation of truth.  He did what he did with a clear conscience.  He was convinced that he was dragging to prison and killing those that opposed the God he served.

But Saul was wrong.

He had to be blinded by the light and voice of Truth in order for him to recognize that what he was convinced to be truth was in fact a lie.  It took an encounter with Christ to be transformed.

Is there a lie you’re convinced is a truth?  Could there be something you are doing in an effort to bless the church that is actually persecuting it?

I invite you to be transformed by encountering Christ, just like Saul was, on this Transformational Tuesday.

For the whole story, see Acts 9.
