Who is PAUL the Apostle?
Galatians,..... one of the books written by him .This particular book of Galatians was written by apostle paul to the "church in Galatia";his aim is to clarify that the Moses's law under the OT(old testament) has nothing to do with our salvation.Thus our salvation is obtain by GOD's grace in christ under the NT (new testament).
Let me venture a little bit into the life of paul.He was known as the former persecutor, murderer and antichrist of his time.He witness to the murder of a certain disciple called stephen acts7:58,known then as Saul he was the leader of the church's first intense and severe persecution" men and women were draged out from their houses put in prison,beaten and put to death Acts8:1-3 "
Undoutedly this paul is of jewish youth,born and raise with the law of Moses;he has devotion, passion for the law of his fathers.He couldn't accept any new teaching apart from that which was given to his forfathers in the desert.He was later converted to to a christian on his way to Damascus, on a mission to get a letter of permit from the high priest that would allow him to arrest any of the jew following the new way of christ.
