St. Paul Knew Who Jesus Is

First the Holy Scripture concering St. Paul knowing who Jesus Is.

Galatians 1

11 For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. 12 For neither did I receive it of man, nor did I learn it; but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.

15 But when it pleased him, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, immediately I condescended not to flesh and blood.

1 Paul, an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead,

How did Paul become an Apostle? This is the question that many do not comprehend. They think in material terms, which is human erudition. The things of God are discerned spiritually through the Spirit.

I see therefore I can touch it. This here latter thinking is entirely material.

The Lord guides us through the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a covering and an indwelling, to be replete with.

Well, sometime after all the original Apostles were martyred, St.John being an exemption from being hacked, or crucified he was exiled, ---another kind of martyrdom-- the Disciples were scattered and living underground. When the times changed, a Vicar remained only. For the thing to do was to protect the Vicar for fear of losing the Church Militant. Jesus always said, "Fear not" or "Be not afraid". He said to the Apostles, this is "My Church". And those who do the will of God are part of it. This gets intricate today because of the way you have to word and explain things. People tend to think in one dimension, and after contemplating in quietness and allowing God to expand your vision, you begin to understand the traps, snares, interworkings of Evil. It begins to unravel and you must contemplate and remember this and all that is shown to you so you can avoid all these traps, snares, and malice.

The Lord calls people to become Disciples, Priests, Apostles, Prophets and all the other members. He calls and directs each one. The thing to do is listen and obey Him. He puts all the members in the Church, His Body. His. Not ours. We belong to it, if we obey Him. Out of Love for Him, for only those who Love Him will be close to Him in Eternal Bliss. Those who did not love Him, or lukewarm, depending on your conduct on earth, end up in Purgatory, but still better than hell. The more you love God now, the better it is for you, your place among the stars, and near the "burning furnace of Charity." This warmth is what is missed here below. The love of God being sent out from spirits as sparks to ignite other souls to love. A spark in a chain reaction. But instead, what is happenig is souls being hard as granite, because of mental pride, reject Goodness, and thus the flames and sparks build up, or dwindle in us. We cannot stay focused because of 'rejection'. God does not reject us. If He did, would not be alive at this moment or anytime before this.

St. Paul thought he was doing God's will before he was converted. He was zealous. He was misled, so Christ who see's the soul, and reads them, dawned on St. Paul. Notice he was called Saul, like King Saul. But this Saul, was converted, unlike the former king of Israel, which leads to another point.

God chooses. God placed Saul as king over Israel, he ended up being just a carnal person. So God had him removed. God did this. We read what is taking place and do not most of the time realize in all the story telling that God is at work to show, when Evil steps up to be king, all kinds of other evils befall man. And this creates quite a mess. So what does God do? He calls up the Propet Samuel or Nathan have to look over the names, but the point here is not who God called to bring, but to see God's hand at work.

Man is subject to all the things of this life as flesh, and his soul has to suffer, fear of, causes people not to look with the eyes of Faith, but with the eyes of human feelings which are not designed to cause prolonged paralysis, but a warning for the moment, which should cause you to pray to God for direction, but instead causes the opposite reaction. To close up and run away and hide.

In the world today all you see and hear is the workings of the flesh, in which Satan is King, it is his instrument. He subjects people through fear and anxiety. Treating them like cattle. He uses cattle prods as the fear inducer. The world is conditioned in this way over time. It takes time for Satan to conquer souls. God is at work too!

Satan conquers souls by one degree at a time. This is what Jesus has revealed to us in the Notebook of 1944.

Too much knowledge and not enough heart and soul, to not give all your heart to Jesus is detrimental. It is better to love Jesus in simplicity like a child. Be child like. Just accept that Jesus already knows everything and trust Him with your whole being, strength, mind.

St. Paul took time to convert. So do we. He knows who Jesus Is. Do you?

Peace be with you... always
