Paul was a firebrand picked up by God for a nebulous mission.He completed a colossal job during a time of great civilizational collapse. During an epoch of uncertainty, Paul came to the realization that the Crucified One was indeed the Immutable Truth. He poured out his life as a libation for the eternal Logos who had visited our cosmos. It was the experimentations in the laboratory of Paul's cerebrum that turned the Judeo-Christian ethics and Greco-Roman civilization into a conglomerate called the "Western Civilization." The mind of Paul was an academy of ideas, and we the lukewarm, shape-shifting people of the postmodern world have much to learn from him. His epistles are read every day, in every church, in every language, in every continent. It is my hope that the sheer energy pulsing through Pauline letters will certainly invigorate us to understand Paul's passion for the Pantocrator. Jacob C.
