Law teachers/not works of righteousness which we have done, what are they teaching against.
Apostle Paul is a true example of God to the entire world, for everyone to follow.
Paul was persecuting Jesus, by what he was doing and what he was following after. ( the law) Paul asks what the Lord Jesus will have him to do, Jesus tells him it shall be told to him in the city of Damascus.
Paul was chosen specifically to bear the name of the Lord Jesus Christ before the Gentiles, and the children of Israel. ( along with kings) for Jesus would SHOW HIM how GREAT THINGS he must suffer for His name's sake.
Paul was strengthened and was with the disciples at Damascus, and straight away preached Christ in the synagogues that He is the Son of God.
Barnabas then takes Paul away ( those who heard him of the Jews in the law wanted to kill him) and relates to the apostles that Paul had seen the Lord in the way and Jesus had spoken to Paul, and then Paul had preached BOLDLY at Damascus in the name of Jesus. ( before this Saul who is Paul, had gone to Damascus for the intention of bringing men and women to Jerusalem by the authority of the chief priests in the law, to put all who call on the name of the Lord to death.).....
Acts 9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord? And the Lord said, I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks.6 And he trembling and astonished said, Lord, what wilt thou have me to do? And the Lord said unto him, Arise, and go into the city, and it shall be told thee what thou must do.
Acts 9:15 But the Lord said unto him, Go thy way: for he is a chosen vessel unto me, to bear my name before the Gentiles, and kings, and the children of Israel:16 For I will shew him how great things he must suffer for my name's sake.
Acts 9:19 And when he had received meat, he was strengthened. Then was Saul certain days with the disciples which were at Damascus.20 And straightway he preached Christ in the synagogues, that he is the Son of God.
Acts 9:27 But Barnabas took him, and brought him to the apostles, and declared unto them how he had seen the Lord in the way, and that he had spoken to him, and how he had preached boldly at Damascus in the name of Jesus..
The transformation of apostle Paul and the difference in what he NOW DOES, is so important that it is repeatedly witnessed.
Paul recalls how the Lord says to him to arise and go into Damascus, and THERE IT SHALL BE TOLD TO PAUL OF ALL THINGS WHICH ARE APPOINTED FOR HIM TO DO.
Paul was told, the god of their fathers had chosen Paul, for Paul to know the will of Jesus Christ and to see that just One, and that Paul should hear the voice of His mouth. ( FALSE PROPHETS HEAR NOTHING, BELIEVE IN NOTHING, FOLLOW NOTHING, HEAR AND SPEAK VANITY AND DECEIT.)....
Acts 22:10 And I said, What shall I do, Lord? And the Lord said unto me, Arise, and go into Damascus; and there it shall be told thee of all things which are appointed for thee to do.
Acts 22:14 And he said, The God of our fathers hath chosen thee, that thou shouldest know his will, and see that Just One, and shouldest hear the voice of his mouth.
