Next to the coming OF Jesus into
the world, and the great events
cnnectew with his life, death and
resurrection, the most important
event in history was the conversion
OF the apostle Paul, known by the
name OF Saul until the time or his
conversion.
Here, however, we are not so
much concerned with the historic
significance and effect of that con-
version as with its spiritual signifi-
canoe and its place in the early
movement Of Christianity. The con-
version OF Paul brought into the
Christian movement III It's very be-
ginning a man remarkably adapted
TO become the outstanding mission

to undertake almost any task, no
matter how arduous. Besides this
physical endowment he had a fer
vency az spirit and a patient cour-
age that made him almost fanatical
IN his zeal and blind to every OBJ
stacle and every danger that might
in any way oppose his purpose.
New Outlook
What Christianity did was 10
take all these natural endoWmentS
Of Paul and give TO them the en-
richment Of q profound conviction
and a great cause. Christianity did
not SO much change his moral char
acter and his moral purpose as give
him a new outlook and a new
spirit. He spoke of himself later
