Acts 9:20-25 - Saul Proclaims Christ In Damascus
20 and at once he began to preach in their synagogues that Jesus is the Son of God.
21 And all who heard him were astounded and said, "Is not this the man who harassed those who called upon this name in Jerusalem, and has come here expressly for the purpose of putting them in chains and taking them back to the high priests?"
22 But Saul grew stronger and stronger and continued to put to utter confusion the Jews who lived in Damascus, by proving that Jesus is the Christ.
23 After several days had gone by, the Jews laid a plot to murder him, 24 but their plot was found out by Saul. Day and night they kept guarding the city gates, to murder him, 25 but his disciples took him one night and let him down through the city wall, by lowering him in a hamper-basket.
