God 耶和华 created the world including human being.
But the people do/did not worship 耶和华 and they worship/worshiped the idols. During the wars between the countries or civil wars, a lot of disasters happen/happened.
Paul the Apostle was known as Saul prior to his conversion, and was dedicated to the persecution of the early disciples of Jesus in the area of Jerusalem. While traveling from Jerusalem to Damascus on a mission to "bring them which were there bound unto Jerusalem", the resurrected Jesus appeared to him in a great light. Saul was struck blind, but after three days his sight was restored by Ananias of Damascus, and Paul began to preach that Jesus of Nazareth is the Jewish Messiah and the Son of God. |
