Who said the longest road in the world is the road to redemption?

This phrase may be attributed to writer Jace J Quinn. It has been used in a print ad for General Motors. Regardless of its origin, whoever said it was apparently unaware that the road to redemption is about the shortest road one could conceive of--two steps. Take the two steps described in the Bible's Epistle to the Romans, the tenth chapter, the ninth verse, and you have arrived at Redemptionville, aka salvation: That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. To be redeemed is to be bought back, and you have been bought back from eternal death. Hence, you have been saved from death by the man who "fell on the grenade" for you by dying in your place, and paid the price you were required to pay for your sin, since "the wages of sin is death (Romans 6:23).


What road did Jesus appear in?

Who did Jesus meet on road to Damascus?

A:According to Acts of the Apostles, Paul saw Jesus on the road to Damascus and was converted. He was blinded by a light, fell down and heard the voice of Jesus saying, "It hurts you to kick against the goad [or 'pricks']" (Acts 25:14). This is a quotation from theancient play known as Bacchae by Euripides (d. 406 BCE). The scene has parallels to the play and peculiarly has Jesus quote a Greek proverb to Paul while speaking Aramaic ("in the Hebrew language"). Paul was then taken, blind and helpless to Damascus, where he was taught the gospel. Paul himself never mentions this episode, and says that after his conversion, he went straight to Arabia. Another clear parallel between Acts and the Bacchae is when Paul is miraculously released from prison. Taken together, these accounts demonstrate that the source was a play, not actual events. Paul did not really meet Jesus on the road to Damascus.


Who were the two people Jesus appeared to on the road to Damascus?

The two people Jesus appeared to on the road to Damascus were Saul (who later became known as the apostle Paul) and Ananias. Jesus appeared to Saul in a blinding light and spoke to him, causing him to become a believer and change his ways. Ananias was instructed by Jesus to go to Saul and heal him of his blindness.
