1 Corinthians 15:9

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

For I am the least of the apostles, that am not meet to be called an apostle, because I persecuted the church of God.

But Saul began ravaging the church, and, entering house after house, he dragged off men and women and put them in prison.

Now Saul, still breathing threats and murder against the disciples of the Lord, went to the high priest,

I persecuted this Way to the death, binding and delivering into prison both men and women,

I myself was convinced that I ought to do many things to oppose the name of Jesus of Nazareth.

For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it;

as to zeal, a persecutor of the church; as to righteousness under the law, blameless.

Even though I was formerly a blasphemer and a persecutor and a violent aggressor, I was shown mercy because I acted ignorantly in unbelief;

So you also, when you have done all that is commanded you, say, 'We are unworthy servants; we have only done what was our duty.'"
