Synopsis
The most famous conversion in history—when Saul became Paul—was a trick.
It was actually Jesus appearing to him.
Jesus did not die on the cross but was rescued and sheltered by James, Peter, and Mary Magdalene.
But they prefer to keep Paul in the dark.
Now imprisoned by Nero, Peter finally tells Paul the truth before their deaths.
