    God has given me the gift of bringing scripture to life in art and creativity. I teach my students how to translate the word of God into a visual.

    As a Roman citizen he had rights that protected him from being imprisoned or run out of town. It opened advantages for him. His education afforded him that ability to know scriptures like very few others, therefore, “he could reason with people from the scriptures”.

    He was a scholar of Jewish law living in Rome. He was an apostle chosen by God since he experienced Jesus’ miracles and power first hand. All of these combined helped the Holy Spirit speak through him to people who weren’t as receptive to the gifts of Christ.

    Paul was gifted and meticulously trained in Jerusalem under Gamaliel, who was a prominent and highly respected scholar of Jewish Law. Because of this, Paul could explain what was written concerning the coming of the Messiah. He could also quote Scripture to prove his beliefs that Jesus was the Messiah and disprove others who were not believers.

    Paul was raised a hellenic Jew and studied the Old Testament scriptures. His Roman citizenship provided him with protection and his Jewish background allowed him to reference Jesus as the messiah.
