When someone’s religion turns into fanaticism, it tends to spell trouble for some other people. The New Testament book of Acts recounts its effect on a man called Saul. He did everything he could to punish and persecute the followers of Jesus Christ.
But then something happened: On his way to bring Christians to what he thought was justice, he met none other than the resurrected Christ.
The persecutor’s life was changed forever. Saul became Paul, the greatest Christian missionary and theologian of all times.
In discussions on the dangers of religion we should not forget what a genuine encounter with Jesus Christ can do.
