Name: Paul of
Tarsus
Born: 10 AD in Tarsus.
Died: 67 AD in Rome.
Notable Accomplishment: Largely responsible for the initial
spread of Christianity.
The Basics: A tentmaker by trade, the son of a merchant, Paul
(born Saul) initially persecuted the growing Christian minority in
the name of the emperor. Legend has it that he was converted
to Christianity on the road to Damascus. Once converted, he
changed his name and began a new ministry in spreading the message
of Christianity to the world. 13 epistles in the Christian
Scriptures are attributed to Paul. He was put to death in Rome
for his faith.
