Acts 9
Acts 9:3-6
As Saul drew near to Damascus on his journey, a light from heaven suddenly flashed around him. He fell to the ground and heard a voice say to him, “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me?” “Who are You, Lord?” Saul asked. “I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting,” He replied. “Now get up and go into the city, and you will be told what you must do.”
