“The heart of Paul’s message is the Cross and the resurrection of Christ as proving His power over death on the Cross.” (Page 30)

“There was in his heart the conflict between law and grace. He was a master in rabbinic lore and Mosaic law” (Page 21)

“It was the supreme test of his life, like a collision of a steel train. He was going at full speed against Christ and was abruptly halted.” (Page 17)

“Paul was not successful in convincing the Jews of Damascus that Christianity was the true Judaism” (Page 22)

“He comes back to his work with a clear vision of the cardinal doctrines of grace. He has come to see how a new Israel is to supplant the old. The new is rooted in the old and is the true realization of the hopes of his people.” (Page 21)
