What Does Acts 26:12 Mean?
Paul brings his account to the turning point. He was traveling to Damascus, carrying official authority and commission from the chief priests to extend his campaign against the believers there.
He was at the height of his opposition, fully empowered and fully determined. This is the moment before everything changed. God often meets people not when they are seeking Him, but in the very midst of their resistance, and turns their path completely around.
