Paul was a rabbi and a tent maker. He was a "court official" of the Sanhedrin, and as such, presided over the stoning of Stephen. All rabbis had a trade, so tent making was a respectable profession.
Saul (aka Paul) was a devout Jew before his conversion.
Paul was traveling to Damascus when he was converted.
Road to Damascus
Three years
No Titus was not converted by Timothy. He was converted by Paul
Paul is one of the more significant writers of the Bible. Paul's old name was Saul before he was converted. This is irony that he is so beloved because he persecuted followers of Jesus. Paul had not actually known Jesus and he was converted on the road to Damascus. Paul wrote at least seven books of the Bible. When Paul caused a disruption in Jerusalem, he was arrested and put under 2 years of house arrest then put to death.
Although not specifically spelled out in the Bible, it is believed Paul was shunned by his parents and the community once they found he had converted to Christianity. Paul was the apostle to the Gentiles.
The woman converted by Paul's preachings was Lydia, a seller of purple goods in Philippi. She became one of the first converts to Christianity in Europe after hearing Paul's teachings by the river.
PaulAnswer:Neither Paul nor Peter "betrayed" Jesus. Peter deniedknowing Him just prior to the crucifixion, and Paul (Saul) was violently opposed to the church before he learned the truth and was converted, but it was Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus.

Yes. And in doing so almost converted Agrippa to Christianity (Acts 26:28).
Paul was struck blind on the way to Damascus, and god spoke to him. And he was blind for three days. He then converted himself, and became Paul, from Saul.
