All efforts to fasten Old Covenant "promises" on children and youth are bound to "gender to bondage" in their spiritual experience. Ellen White says, "The knowledge of your broken promises and forfeited pledges weakens your confidence in your own sincerity, and causes you to feel that God cannot accept you." [2] God doesn't ask us to promise Him righteousness; He asks us to believe His promises to us. Endnotes: --Paul E. Penno [1] E. J. Waggoner, "The Hope of the Promise," Bible Echo and Signs of the Times, vol. 4, no. 10 (May 15, 1889), p. 154. [2] Ellen G. White, Steps to Christ, p. 47. 127
Chapter 31 The Conversion of Paul As the party descended the winding grade to the fertile oasis, their long, hot journey was nearly at its end. Below them lay the beautiful expanse of green fields and ripening orchards that surrounded Damascus. Suddenly, a light "above the brightness of heaven" shone round about them. The leader of the group, Saul, was overcome by the intensity of the light and fell to the ground. Saul was a Roman citizen by birth and a Jew by ancestry. He had received the finest education available at the time. He was well versed in the Greek, Latin, Hebrew, and Aramaic languages. For his education, he sat at the feet of Gamaliel, the illustrious Jewish theologian, and had learned the "perfect manner of the law" (Acts 22:3). He was the "Pharisee's Pharisee," the brightest young lawyer on the Sanhedrin (Phil. 3:5, 6). His current mission to Damascus was fully backed financially and theologically, by the high priest and the Sanhedrin council. They had given him letters of authority that he might breathe "out threatenings and slaughter against the disciples of the Lord," to bring them bound to Jerusalem to be punished for heresy (Acts 9:1; 22:5). Now, lying face down in the dust, he heard a voice. "Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to fight against your conscience!" (Acts 9:4, 5). He asked, "Who are you, Lord?" The same voice answered, "I am Jesus of Nazareth." These words struck Saul's heart like a thunderbolt. Jesus of Nazareth was dead, dead and buried! Saul firmly believed that it was only lies circulated by His disciples that stirred the people to think that Jesus was risen from the dead. Trembling with fear, he said, "What shall I do, Lord?"
