Ubuntwana UPaul wazalelwa eTarso, ngo-10 AD, kwaye ekuqaleni wayebizwa ngokuba nguSawule. Ekhuliswe njengomYuda ongumFarisi, yena, kwiminyaka yakhe yokuqala, watshutshisa namaKristu, ethatha inxaxheba ekuxulutyeni uStephen, umfeli-nkolo wokuqala ongumKristu. Ukumfanyekiswa okomzuzwana ngumbono womfanekiso kaYesu ovusiweyo, kwindlela eya eDamasko, kwakhokelela ekubeni uSawule aguquke. Wabhaptizwa njengoPawulos kwaye waya eArabhiya iminyaka emithathu, ethandaza kwaye ecinga. Ukubuyela eDamasko, uPawulos waphinda waqalisa ngohambo lwakhe, kodwa ngeli xesha, indawo esiya kuyo yayise Yerusalem. Emva kweminyaka eli-14, waphinda waya eYerusalem. Nangona abapostile babemkrokrela, uSt.Bharnabhas wakubona ukunyaniseka kwakhe wambuyisela kwa-Antiyokwe. Ngexesha lendlala, eyahlasela elakwaYuda, uPawulos noBharnabhas baya e-Yerusalem, ukuya kuxhasa ngezimali ama-Antiyokwe. Ngale nto, benza iAntiyokwe yaba liziko elinye lamaKristu kunye neziko eliphambili lamaKristu lokushumayela kukaPawulos. IBhunga laseYerusalem kunye neSiganeko kwa-Antiyokwe Malunga nama-49-50 AD, kwabanjwa intlanganiso ebalulekileyo phakathi kukaPaul nebandla lase Yerusalem. Ingqwalasela yale ntlanganiso yayikukuthatha isigqibo sokuba ngaba abaguqukileyo beeNtlanga bafuna ukoluka. Kwakule ntlanganiso apho uPetros, uYakobi, noYohane bamkela uthumo lukaPawulos kwabeeNtlanga. Nangona bobabini uPawulos noPeter babenze isivumelwano kwiBhunga lase Yerusalem, abokugqibela babemathidala ukutya isidlo namaKristu eeNtlanga eAntiyokwe kwaye bajongana esidlangalaleni nguPawulos. Oku kubizwa ngokuba yi 'Isiganeko kwa-Antiyokwe'. Umsebenzi oQalisiweyo kwakhona Ngo-50-52 AD, uPawulos wachitha iinyanga ezili-18 eKorinte, kunye noSilas noTimoti. Emva koko, waya e-Efese, iziko elibalulekileyo lobuKristu bokuqala ukusukela nge50s (AD). Iminyaka emi-2 elandelayo yobomi bukaPaul yayichithelwa e-Efese, besebenza nebandla kwaye beququzelela umsebenzi wobufundisi kwimimandla esemaphandleni. Nangona kunjalo, wanyanzelwa ukuba ahambe ngenxa yeziphazamiso ezininzi kunye nokuvalelwa. Emva koko uPawulos waya eMakedoni, apho waya khona ngaphambi kokuba aye eKorinte. Emva kokuhlala eKorinte iinyanga ezintathu, wenza utyelelo lokugqibela eYerusalem. Ukubanjwa kunye nokufa Ngo-57 AD, uPawulos wafika eJerusalem nemali yebandla. Nangona iingxelo zisithi icawe yamamkela ngovuyo uPawulos, uJames wayenike isindululo esikhokelele ekubanjweni kwakhe. Egcinwe njengebanjwa iminyaka emibini, ityala likaPawulos lavulwa kwakhona xa kwangena umlawuli omtsha. Ekubeni wabhenela njengommi waseRoma, uPawulos wathunyelwa eRoma ukuze ityala, nguKesare. Nangona kunjalo, endleleni, waphukelwa yinqanawa. Ngeli xesha ke wadibana ne-St. Publius kunye nabemi besiqithi, abambonisa ububele. Ukufika kwakhe eRoma, ngo AD 60, wachitha iminyaka emibini eluvalelweni, emva koko wasweleka. Imibhalo Iincwadi ezilishumi elinesithathu kwiTestamente eNtsha zibizwa ngokuba zezikaPawulos. Kuzo, ezisixhenxe zithathwa njengezinyanisekileyo (KwabaseRoma, AbaseKorinte BokuQala, AbaseKorinte BesiBini, AbaseGalati, AbaseFilipi, AbaseTesalonika Bokuqala, kunye noFilemon), abathathu bayathandabuza kwaye abanye bakholelwa ukuba ababhalwanga nguye. Kukholelwa ukuba lo gama uPawulos wayemisela iileta zakhe, unobhala wakhe wawushwankathela umxholo womyalezo wakhe. Ngokubambisana neminye imisebenzi, iincwadi zikaPawulos zazisasazwa phakathi kwamaKristu kwaye zifundwa ngokuvakalayo ezicaweni. Uninzi lwabagxeki banoluvo lokuba iincwadi ezibhalwe nguPawulos yenye yeencwadi zokuqala ezibhaliweyo zeTestamente eNtsha. Iileta zakhe, ezazibhalelwe iicawa awayezisekele okanye wazindwendwela, zazinenkcazo yokuba amaKristu kufuneka akholelwe njani nokuba aphile njani. Imisebenzi kaPawulos iqulethe ingxelo yokuqala ebhaliweyo malunga nokuba kuthetha ukuthini ukuba ngumKristu kwaye ke, imeko yokomoya yobuKristu. UPawulos noYesu Endaweni yokuchaza uKristu, umsebenzi kaPawulos wagxila kubume bobudlelwane bamaKristu noKristu, ngakumbi, kumsebenzi kaKristu osindisayo (ukunikela ngobomi baKhe ukukhusela ubomi babanye). Ezinye zezehlo zobomi bukaYesu Krestu, ezikhankanywe nguPawulos, sisidlo sangokuhlwa sokugqibela, ukufa kwakhe ngokubethelelwa emnqamlezweni nokuvuka kwakhe. USt Paul wayebhale iimfundiso ezintathu- Ulungiso, ukuHlengwa kunye noXolelwaniso. UPawulos wathi u-Kristu wasithathela isohlwayo endaweni yaboni, ukuze bakhululeke kwimpindezelo yabo yobuthixo. Kwimfundiso 'yokugwetyelwa', ukholo luthathwa njengeyona nto ibalulekileyo. UPawulos wathi ukubambelela kuKristu, ngexesha lokufa nokuvuka kwaKhe, umntu uya kuba yinto enye neNkosi. Nangona kunjalo, ngokubhekisele ekukhululweni komphefumlo, umntu uya kuyiphumeza loo nto ngenxa yedini laKhe. 'Intlawulelo' inemixholo yokukhulula amakhoboka. Kanye njengokuba ixabiso elithile lahlawulwa ukukhulula ikhoboka kubunini balo, ngendlela efanayo, noKrestu wahlawula ixabiso lokufa kwaKhe, njengentlawulelo, ukukhulula umntu oqhelekileyo kwizono zakhe. 'Ukuxolelanisa' kuhambelana nenyaniso yokuba uKristu wehlisa udonga olwahlulayo phakathi kwamaJuda neeNtlanga, ezenziwa ngumthetho. Imfundiso ngokusisiseko ijongana nokwenza uxolo.

Ekubhaleni, indawo yamaKristu ithelekiswa nomzimba womntu onamalungu ahlukeneyo kunye namalungu, ngelixa umoya uthathwa njengoMoya kaKristu. UPaul wayekholelwa ukuba uThixo nguBawo wethu kwaye siziindlalifa kunye noKristu. Ubudlelwane nobuYuda Nangona yayingajoliswanga, uPawulos wakhawulezisa ukwahlula ihlelo lamaMesiya lamaKristu kubuYuda. Ukubhala kwakhe wathi ukholo kuKristu kubalulekile kusindiso lwamaYuda kunye neeNtlanga ngokufanayo, oko ke kwandisa umsantsa phakathi kwabalandeli bakaKristu kunye namaJuda aqhelekileyo. UPawulos wayenoluvo lokuba abaguqukileyo beeNtlanga akufuneki babe ngamaJuda, baluswe, balandele imiqathango yokutya yamaJuda okanye, bagcine umthetho wamaJuda. Wema ukuba ukholo kuKristu lwanele ukusindiswa kwaye iTorah ayibopheleli amaKristu eeNtlanga. Nangona kunjalo, eRoma, wagxininisa kwixabiso elihle loMthetho, ukubonisa ukuthembeka kukaThixo. Uvuko Ngokubhala kwakhe, uPawulos wanika ithemba kubo bonke abangabakaKristu, nokuba abafileyo okanye bayaphila, ukuze basindiswe.

Xa ebuzwa, kuya kwenzeka ntoni kwabo sele befile kwaye isiphelo siya kuba nini, uPawulos waphendula iminyaka edlula. Wawaqinisekisa amadoda ukuba abafileyo bazakuvuka kuqala, kulandele abaphilayo. Nangona engaqinisekanga malunga nexesha okanye ixesha, uPawulos wathi kwakuza kubakho imfazwe phakathi kukaYesu Krestu kunye nomchasi-mthetho, kuze kulandele uloyiso lukaYesu. Impembelelo kubuKristu UPaul Paul kuthiwa unefuthe elikhulu kubuKrestu. Ngapha koko, bobabini uYesu noPawulos kubonakala ngathi banegalelo ngokulinganayo kubuKristu. Umbhali obalulekileyo weTestamente eNtsha, uPawulos waliphakamisa inqanaba lecawa yamaKristu njengomzimba kaKristu kunye nehlabathi ngaphandle njengakweso sigwebo sakhe. Isidlo sangokuhlwa sokugqibela Enye yeembekiselo zokuqala kwiSidlo Sangokuhlwa Sokugqibela inokubonwa kwimibhalo kaPawulos. Abaphengululi bakholelwa ukuba iSidlo seNkosi Sangokuhlwa sasivela kubahedeni. Bathi isithethe sesidlo sangokuhlwa sokugqibela mhlawumbi sivela kwindawo yamaKristu, eyasekwa eAsia Minor naseGrisi.
