Paul : The Mind of the Apostle

A.N. Wilson

4.9/5 (12056 ratings)

Description:It begins on the road to Damascus, in a moment graven on the consciousness of Western civilization. "Saul, Saul", asks the crucified Jesus of Nazareth, "why persecutest thou me?" From this experience, & from the response of the Jewish merchant later known as Paul, springs the Christian Church as we know it today. For as A.N. Wilson makes clear in this gripping narrative, Christianity without Paul is quite literally nothing. Jesus, with the layers of scholarship & ceremony stripped away, is a fastidious & fervent Jew who will lead his followers into a stricter, purer observance of Judaism. It's Paul who will claim divinity for him, who will transform him into the Messiah, center of an entirely new religion. In Wilson's astute narrative, we see Paul negotiating the dangerous political currents of the Roman Empire, making converts, & writing the great epistles that define our understanding of Christ & of the sublime paradoxes of his teaching. What drove Paul? What would he think of what his church has become? The answers lie in this biography, which lays bare the psychological journey of Christianity's true inventor.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
