OK, I should have addressed the other person. But seem unable to answer if Paul repented. LOL
Of course the Apostle repented..........one has to only read the entire account of his transformation from sinner to one called and anointed by God to be His Spokesperson to see that.........it's all found in the Book of Acts.

Paul did not write Acts, didn't you know? How about some verses, I will read them if there are any.

Did Paul say he repented in ANY of his letters? I'll take a look.

I did not say that Paul WROTE Acts, I stated that his story of conversion was IN ACTS.........goodness.......How about you read the Book of Acts for yourself to find the appropriate Scripture references?

You cannot find ANY verses where Paul repented. I just checked a concordance, Paul did not repent as far as I can tell, BUT, you are a follower of Paul, maybe you can find one or maybe two?

Jesus is against sacrifices, "Go and learn what this means, I desire mercy and not sacrifice." Matt 9:13, Matt 12:7

You are correct that getting to heaven is NOT easy at all, Jesus said so.

You won't even look, I did the work for you. You know that as a scholar I wouldn't miss anything, correct? LOL

You look confused. Maybe repenting is a "work", which Paul was against?

Simply give mercy then. I ask again, can we forgive people who does not know or believe the truth?

You cannot find when or if Paul repented, admit it.

As to when a person gets to heaven, don't you think that Jesus would know HOW to do it?

"Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever HATES his life will keep it forever." John 12:25

Actually it's you who can not find................ :) And you have yet to answer my question..........what religion are you? You state you are not Christian............so that does beg the question...............you aren't ashamed of your religion are you?

I am assuming you have a problem with Paul's letters in the Bible? Want them torn out?

You are a scholar, and yet, your thought flow seems a little jittery. Perhaps, you should humble yourself before you are made the fool by your own replies.

You seem to think that ALL will be saved? That is not what Jesus taught. See Matt 7:23 again, "not everyone" One must do the will of the Father in heaven.
So this is what your getting at? Good to know. God is not mocked, He knows when He is truly called upon so chill out, the scripture is right and God knows what's going on.

Rom 10:10 "For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation."

Paul did NOT say "for with the heart man believeth BECAUSE he already is righteous and with the mouth confession is made BECAUSE he already has salvation.

"Unto" carries the idea of looking ahead, in order to obtain.....one believes and confesses in order to obtain salvation
A Person cannot believe / call upon the Name of the Lord unless they are saved, made alive first Ps 80:18

18 So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.

Before that, we are dead in sin Eph 2:5

5 Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)

Anybody can call on a name, that is common sense. A 3 year old kid could learn to do this.
Ok then show us a verse that says:

In the mean time Ps 80:8

18 So will not we go back from thee: quicken us, and we will call upon thy name.

Verse 19 Restore us, Lord God Almighty;make your face shine on us,that we may be saved.

In order to believe in the Lord you first have to know about Him, and believe in his existence. You also have to admit you are a sinner that needs saving..
