It goes without saying that the Gospel of the Grace of God had not yet been revealed, as it was a progressive revelation given to the apostle Paul. Paul himself says that he was an unbeliever, as I stated before. This was the very reason that he was persecuting the followers of Christ.
In his own words, Paul states, concerning the grace program, "Howbeit for this cause I obtained mercy, that in me first Jesus Christ might shew forth all longsuffering, for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on him to life everlasting". (1 Tim. 1:16)

Yes, Paul was saved and filled with the Holy Ghost, even to the point that he was able to perform many miracles through the power of the Holy Spirit, until the Kingdom program was finally held in abeyance by the Lord, and the spiritual gifts ceased to operate. But Paul still states that the grace given to him was a pattern for all who would follow him in grace.
