A Guilty Man Faces the Judge

1. Conversions can come suddenly and when you least expect it.

2. When the Lord comes in His mighty power – no man can stand against Him.

3. Saul instantly realized the truth that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

4. Notice the close connection between Christ and His people.

Is there a CONTRADICTION in the 3 accounts of Saul's conversion? See v. 7
22:9 – Seeing the light, but did not hear the voice.
Is this a contradiction with 9:7? No. The answer is simple.
They heard a sound – like thunder – but they did not make out what the voice said – only Saul understood the message.

5. It's hard to kick against the pricks (goads)

6. Saul, a chosen vessel v. 15

7. Salvation will be proceeded by, or accompanied by, or soon followed by a deep conviction of sin.
