Verse of the Week - Galatians 1:23 - 24

From Persecutor to Preacher

Though those churches in the country of Judea had never seen Paul in person, yet they had heard of him: 

• That he had been a persecutor of those which professed the doctrine of the gospel, which he here calls the faith, it being the object and the means of faith. 
• That there was such a change wrought in him, as that he was now become a preacher of that doctrine, for the profession of which he had formerly wasted and destroyed, the churches of Christ.                                 Matthew Poole's Commentary on Biblehub.com
