Paul comes to life and exits exile as the church affirms Paul’s conversion and is baptized. Paul immediately begins acting on the calling that the Lord has given him by ministering to both Jew and Gentile audiences, proclaiming Christ to them. A few years later, Paul engages with the Apostolic headquarters in Jerusalem largely thanks to Barnabas’ affirmation of Paul. Paul escapes death threats once again, this time heading for his hometown of Tarsus.
