This is the Baymaw Podcast with Marty Salman. I'm his GoHose Brent Billings. Today we circle

0:12.6

back to a question we asked a few episodes ago. Did Paul experience a conversion? Was it

0:17.6

a repentance or was it something else entirely? It's right, we did that. So a few episodes

0:22.4

ago we had this big conversation about Paul. We were reading his story in Acts chapter

0:26.5

9. We always call this Paul's conversion, Saul's conversion. And I pushed really hard

0:32.6

to say, I don't think that's accurate. I don't think it's even close to accurate. Paul

0:37.0

doesn't change teams. He doesn't change religions. He hasn't changed gods. He doesn't change

0:41.7

faiths. All he does is correct his thinking about that God, about his faith. He doesn't

0:47.5

stop being Jewish. That's going to be a piece that most people are going to. Some anyway

0:52.8

are going to want to push back on a vehicle. Wait a minute. Well, he starts following

0:56.6

Jesus. So and that's what session four is all about kind of pulling apart this whole

1:01.0

Judaism and Jesus thing and figuring out how those two things go together. But just a very

1:07.9

baseline understanding. Like I don't think we could we could look at the story of Saul's

1:13.4

experience and call it a true conversion. That was episode 138 by the way. Episode 138

1:20.9

clean sheets. We're going to set the episodes. Yeah, we'll link it. Okay. Most of the episode

1:25.8

was about Peter, but we did briefly touch on right. Saul's quote unquote conversion and

1:30.7

said we'd come back to it. So here we are. That's right. And all of you that love resolutions.

1:34.5

You've been hanging there for episodes going, did they forget about that? And the answer

1:38.6

is no. I'm here to give you what you desire. Resolution. So did Saul change teams and

1:46.2

joined something new or did Paul revise his thinking and align his service to a proper

1:52.1

understanding of what the king was doing in the world. So I think it'll be helpful if

1:57.4

we go back and start where we can we go back and review that story Brent? Do you have
