Life of Paul

Paul, previously known as Saul, had been a zealous persecutor of the church, but an encounter with the risen Christ (c. a.d. 35) led to his becoming the apostle to the Gentiles, with a mission to proclaim the gospel throughout the Gentile world. He was probably martyred during the persecutions of Nero, possibly in a.d. 67.
