The Apostle Paul, originally known as Saul of Tarsus, is believed to have converted to Christianity approximately 1 to 3 years after Jesus' death, which is generally dated around 30-33 AD. His conversion experience, as described in the New Testament, occurred on the road to Damascus, where he encountered the risen Christ. Following his conversion, Paul became a key figure in the early Christian church, spreading the teachings of Jesus throughout the Roman Empire.
