He gave God the glory for who he was and what he was and for what God had done through his life.

However, Paul built on his earthly standing for Christian Service. God's grace took that raw material, the practical life of Saul of Tarsus and made him a model of God's transforming grace. In this sermon we see how through the gospel God transforms the raw material of sinful men and uses it for His glory.
