Murderer turned saint…its true what they say that only God can turn a mess into a message, a test into a testimony, and trial into triumph. So goes the story of Saul, later Paul. It runs like a dream but historic evidence has proved everything about it right. The letters of saint Paul, or the Epistles of Paul, the Pauline epistles as they are also known, are the thirteen books of the new testament of the Bible that are claimed to be written by Paul and have Paul as the first word. The letters are sources of information because they are what remains as records of the early Christianity and how the gospel was spread then. Their wealth in preaching is the reason why they are used as strong references in Christian ethics and theology. The letter to the Hebrews also is claimed to have been written by Paul but does not bear his name. The letters of Paul are as follow, Romans, 1st and 2nd Corinthians, Galatians, Ephesians, Philippians, Colossians, 1st and 2nd Thessalonians, 1st and 2nd Timothy, Titus and Philemon. The letters present a personal relationship between the author, Paul, and the recipients as he greets them by name and continue to list some of the encouragements he got from them and what he would want done. He wrote these letters to individuals and some to churches and communities where he had preached during his missionary journeys to encourage them in sticking to the gospel. Some of the letters by the apostle Paul have been disputed by modern scholars as being forgeries while others as being pseudepigraphic and refer to them as Pastoral Epistles. Modern scholars however almost unanimously agree that the epistle Hebrew was not authored by Saint Paul. Paul is seen as the first missionary to take the Gospel across different cities preaching and converting people into Christianity. Together with his companions, they managed to create many churches some of which are mentioned in the epistles. For someone who was a Christian persecutor to being one of the most famous Christian missionaries, St Paul did not do so badly. Can you Trace the locations on the map?
