Paul the apostle, converted from persecutor of Jesus to preacher of Jesus on the road to Damascus. He was religious but evil! On the road Paul realised that Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God and was living and raised again from the dead. The road to Damascus was a life changing moment for Paul, the glory of the light of the gospel shone in. His conversion was also the product of God pricking his conscience and Paul's increasing awareness of His sin.
