I have never heard of Paul being raised up. Is this a personal revelation? Or is this something your pastor/denomination preaches.I have read of the conversion of Saul persecutor of Christians, to Paul, minister to the Gentiles.

I googled the words and found nothing, not one place that supports the description of Paul’s conversion as him being raised up.

His message was nothing new. Paul’s conversion is thought to have happened around 35AD and the letter to the Galatians around 46AD. Why the gap of 10 years? Galatians was not his first epistle. Wouldn’t such a huge new revelation have been proclaimed years earlier? Are you saying that Peter and the others preached for more than 10 years without knowing that Jesus died for our sins?

Dispensation is that by Jesus’ sacrifice we do not have to suffer the punishment we deserve for our sins. The gates of heaven are no longer closed to us. The wages of sin is death and the dispensation is that by Jesus’ life, death and resurrection we are saved.

It is ultra dispensationalism. It make "classic dispensationalists" such as H. A, Ironside stand and denounce it; while other sola believers go on like it's no big deal. Astounding - huge elephant in the living room.

Well why don’t you read from Acts, Chapter 9 to the end of Acts. And then read Romans through Philemon. And then get back to me, if you still don’t get it.

Yes, that's a good question
