The Apostle Paul

Paul, the apostle, was a crusader for the cause of Christianity. After he encountered Jesus and became a believer, he dedicated his life to spreading the Gospel. He is recognized as the founder of the Christian church due in part to his ministry after the death of Jesus. He made three missionary trips which are chronicled in various books of the Christian bible. He is also accredited with writing several of the New Testament books, including Romans, 1&2 Corinthians, and Galatians. During his life, the apostle Paul endured persecution, arrest, and cruel treatment in the name of religion by both Jews and Gentiles. This short biography will cover Paul’s epic life and ministry—from his days before conversion to his execution.
