Paul and Jesus are joined in one important way; the way of a miracle. They met one day on the road to Damascus while Paul supposedly pursued Christians. Jesus, in a sense, told Paul to get with the program and stop persecuting his people. In this incident, the Bible tells us, Jesus is already dead, resurrected and leading his flock from his throne in heaven. He spoke to Paul as from a dream, knocking him from his horse and speaking to him as a spirit. It is thought he gave Paul the gift of enlightenment, a new brighter vision of a world ruled by Jesus and his Father in heaven. Paul had been transformed and given the answer that he had craved. His darkness had been turned to light and he knew what he had to do. What if this story is literally true? What if Paul’s trip to Damascus had taken place much later than originally thought; before the Jewish War sometime between 67 AD and 70 AD when Titus was on the scene in Judaea? What if the person telling Paul to get with the program was the person who, at that very time, was leading the Roman Army and claiming to be the Messiah of the Jews; in short, what if “Jesus” was Titus?
