1. The Apostle Paul, the most dramatic person in the Bible
B. Body

1) A self-righteous person who is too drunk on his ego
2) Mother-in-law hostage and daughter-in-law
3) What is included in the false self → unnecessary power and passion
2. Paul Called
1) Paul met the resurrected Jesus whom he hated and ignored → “I am the chief of sinners”, “I am determined to know only Jesus from now on.”
2) Complete conversion of life → Becoming an evangelist who preaches the cross and resurrection
3. Paul lived a life of self-destruction

(1) Acknowledgment differences
(2) Personality modification
a. give up quickly

C. Conclusion
1. Consider Jacob's self-reform due to God.
2. Let's imitate our ancestors of faith: Peter, Ik-doo Kim, Augustine, and Paul the Apostle
3. Let's self-reform our lives as evangelists.
1) Receiving Jesus is the basis of healing: ‘Have you received Jesus?’
2) The gospel is the power of God.
3) The power of salvation is revealed when the word of God is pierced and divided
4) How can we receive the word of the gospel? → The word of the gospel always comes to us through the evangelist.
(1) First, no matter how well-educated and mastered the truth of the world, it is impossible to know God with worldly knowledge, wisdom, and understanding.
(3) Third, without an evangelist, the gospel of God cannot be delivered and there is no salvation from God.
