Paul is the most powerful human personality in the history of the Church. A missionary, theologian and religious genius, in his epistles he laid the foundations on which later Christian theology was built.
Following his conversion from persecutor of the Christian movement to apostle, Paul began preaching a simple missionary gospel. As problems arose out of his message, he provided impassioned and vigorous answers but these do not make up a single system in which each argument is methodically related to the others. He thought that the one God of the world was the god of Israel and also that God sent Christ to save all people, without regard to whether or not they were Jewish. In this highly original introduction to Paul’s life and thought E. P. Sanders whose research on Paul has substantially influenced recent scholarship, pays equal attention to Paul’s fundamental convictions and the sometimes convoluted ways in which they were worked out.
