Saint Paul Medals - Who Was Saint Paul?

The Christian religion has many famous converts and Saint Paul is one of the most well known.  He was a devout Jew, of the tribe of Benjamin, who hated Christians and persecuted them. According to his letters, however, he became a witness to the resurrection of Jesus as he was traveling on the road to Damascus.

He experienced temporary blindness as a result. Paul is the patron saint of London, gentile Christians, theologians, writers, publishers, missions, and truth. For his work in the Christian religion, any believer in the faith would be proud to receive Saint Paul medals engraved with his image.

Saint Paul continued onto Damascus where he converted to and was baptized as a Christian. Afterwards he went to Arabia to prepare himself for missionary work. He later returned to Damascus to start preaching the Christian doctrine at synagogues but was run off by the Jews in the city. But still he persisted and made the first missionary journey with a man name Barnabus.

They traveled to the island of Cypress, Pamphylia, Pisidia, Lycaonia, and Asia Minor. They established churches in Derbe, Antioch, Pisidian, Lystra, and Iconium. The inspiration for the Saint Paul medals was a well traveled man.

He was also well educated and wrote extensively on Christian subjects. He was also very strategic about the way he evangelized in order to convert the most people.

Throughout the bible, he is shown performing miracles some of which were very dangerous and could have resulted in his death. He worked to ensure people had the things they needed to physically sustain themselves and then gave them what they needed for their spirituality.

Like any modern day marketer, he used the miracles to attract people to him so that they could hear his message. Saint Paul medals are good to give people who are similarly doing missionary work.

Paul returned to Jerusalem in 57 where he was arrested due to a disturbance created by James. He was kept as a prisoner for two years in Caesarea. As a citizen of Rome, he demanded that his case be heard in that city. He arrived in Rome in 60 but was put under house arrest for another two years. It is uncertain how Saint Paul died. According to Christian lore, he was beheaded while Nero reigned. One thing is for certain that he lived the idealized life of Christian for which Saint Paul medals are being created in his honor.

The right necklace can enhance attractive features while minimizing flaws. When choosing a flattering style, two important considerations are face shape and neckline. Necklaces to Enhance Face Shape Everyone's facial features are unique, but there are several categories under which most people fall. Some faces have a combination of two or more shapes, but the general designs are oval, pear, heart, square, and round. Women often rely on their face shape when choosing jewelry to complement their natural features. The length and style of necklaces can elongate short faces and detract from stronger builds. To determine the shape of a face, pull the hair back completely to see the hairline, cheeks, jaws, and chin.
