But his sight is restored, and he could see the true light of Christ. This story is inspired by Acts 9:1-31. Go to BibleinaYear.com and learn the Bible in a Year. Today's Bible verse is Acts 9:4 from the King James Version. Episode 223: Saul, filled with rage, was a force against all who claimed the name of Christ. He was on his way to Damascus to gather any Christians he could find there to be tried and executed. While traveling, a light brighter than anything he had ever known appeared before him, and out of this light spoke the voice of Jesus. Blinded by the light, Saul was led by his companions to a house in Damascus. There he would wait for three days until Ananias was sent by God to heal and restore him. From that time on, he began to teach the people the message of Christ instead. Hear the Bible come to life as Pastor Jack Graham leads you through the official BibleinaYear.com podcast.
