Dear it is written, Just like your user name "it is written"...:-) Scripture does not show Saul actively participated in stoning or flogging Stephen. His name was first mentioned in verse 58 where he was taking care of the garments of those persecutors. But in verse 60, Saul was pleased that Stephen be stoned to death. It is reasonable to believe that Saul belonged to the angry crowd. Chapter 9 has explicitly confirmed Saul's persecution on the believers. Hope the above is helpful. Shalom Azure |

Thank you for your time, sometimes it is just so hard for me to understand The WORD. I have always known Paul to be an awesome apostle, it has just come to my attention about Stephen. I knew Paul had a very violent past but am now somewhat numb seeing GOD's Grace as he used some one so greatly who had allowed one of His people to be flogged then anoint him. I guess as humans we will never understand the fullness of HIS GRACE and MERCY. I have come to know Jesus after coming out of Jehovah's Witness's for 30 years and had such a fear and now as I said I sit here almost numb in my body to see this. thank you once again.

Dear it is written, A warm welcome to the family of God. I am excited to see God's gracious protection on you from the JW. Paul was an amazing fruit of the Holy Spirit. I believe he must be in an extremely deep grief in his conversion during the 3 days blindness (Act 9:9). Our almight God is so awesome!!! Paul's life reminds me of the below verse: Luke 7:47 "For this reason I say to you, her sins, which are many, have been forgiven, for she loved much; but he who is forgiven little, loves little." May you be blessed in your study of the Holy Word. Shalom Azure |
