I really enjoyed our last class session. The opening bible study really made me think. What do we mean by "conversion"? I would like to have an opportunity sometime to open one of these discussions to the entire group. Well, I quess that is what the blog site is for. May I ask other members of the class for feedback on the conversion of Paul. How was he converted? I find Paul's Chrsitian enthusiasm to be similar in nature to his earlier prosecution as a member of the Pharisees. Did he just change sides? or perhaps, point of view.
I used to argue that God would never directly interfere with our free will, yet it seems that is exactly what happened to Paul. Wasn't he struck as a result of his use of free will? I'm really just looking for responses to chew on, I'm not a heretic!!!
Regarding, the last presentation, it was marvelous. I enjoyed the organization and the use of Power Point. I wonder, has mission changed in the past 200 years?
