Saul, the first king of Israel, experienced a transformative vision on his way to Damascus, where he encountered a blinding light and heard the voice of Jesus asking, "Saul, why are you persecuting me?" This vision marked a pivotal moment in his life, leading to his conversion from a persecutor of Christians to a devoted follower of Christ. It symbolized a profound spiritual awakening and a shift in his mission, ultimately resulting in his renaming as Paul and his role as an influential apostle in early Christianity.
Saul of Tarsus after he had a vision of Christ & a conversion while on the road to Damascus.
Ananias (Acts 9:17).

Ananias was initially hesitant to help Saul because he was known for persecuting Christians. Ananias feared for his own safety and the safety of other believers, as well as possibly being deceived by Saul's actions. However, after receiving a vision from the Lord, Ananias obeyed and went to help Saul.
After Saul saw Jesus in a vision, he was temporarily blinded ,but saw the truth in his heart. After than he changed his name to Paul and taught people to know and love Jesus. :)

Saul, as he was then known, was on his way to Damascus in order to persecute Christians when a brilliant light from heaven shone. The voice of Jesus spoke to him saying " Saul, Saul, why persecutest thou me?... I am Jesus whom thou persecutest: it is hard for thee to kick against the pricks." Saul turned in an instant from persecuter to believer, and inquired of the Lord as to what he should do. Saul also temporarily lost his vision.
Yes the vision was powerful.Another answer:Saul was not saved by his vision; Jesus told him to "go into the city, and you will be told what you must do" (Acts 9:6). Saul was baptized by Ananias after spending three days in Damascus blinded by his vision, taking no food or drink (v.9). Acts 9:17-19 - And Ananias went his way and entered the house; and laying his hands on him he said, "Brother Saul, the Lord Jesus, who appeared to you on the road as you came, has sent me that you may receive your sight and be filled with the Holy Spirit." Immediately there fell from his eyes something like scales, and he received his sight at once; and he arose and was baptized. So when he had received food, he was strengthened. Then Saul spent some days with the disciples at Damascus.Not only was Saul baptized, he was baptized before he even ate after fasting for three days. His haste clearly affirms the need, and speaks volumes about what's truly important.Also, in the discourse recorded in Acts 22, Saul (now called Paul) quotes Ananias in verse 16: 'And now why are you waiting? Arise and be baptized, and wash away your sins, calling on the name of the Lord.'[Quotes from NKJV]
