Galatians 1

6 He wonders that they have so soon left him and the gospel. 11 He learned the gospel not of men, but of God.

1Paul, an apostle, not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, the One raising Him from the dead,
2and all the brothers with me, to the assemblies of Galatia.
3Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
4who gave Himself for our sins, so that He might deliver us out of the evil age being present, according to the will of our God and Father,
5to whom be the glory unto the ages of the ages. Amen.
6I wonder that you are so quickly turning away from the One having called you in the grace of Christ to another gospel,
7which is not another of the same kind; if not there are some troubling you, even determined to pervert the gospel of Christ.
8But even if we, or an angel out of Heaven, should preach a gospel to you beside the gospel we preached to you, let him be accursed.
9As we have said before, and now I say again, If anyone preaches a gospel beside what you received, let him be accursed.
10For do I now persuade men or God? Or do I seek to please men? For if I yet pleased men, I would not be a slave of Christ.
11And, brothers, I make known to you the gospel preached by me, that it is not according to man.
12For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but by a revelation of Jesus Christ.
13For you heard of my way of life when I was in Judaism, that with surpassing zeal I persecuted the Assembly of God and ravaged it.
14And I advanced in Judaism beyond many of my own age; in my race being much more a zealot of the ancestral traditions of my fathers.
15But when God was pleased, He having separated me from my mother’s womb, and having called me through His grace, Isa. 49:1
16to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the nations, immediately I did not confer with flesh and blood,
17nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia and returned again to Damascus.
18Then after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to know Peter and remained with him fifteen days.
19But I saw no other of the apostles if not James, the brother of the Lord.
20And what I write to you, behold, before God I do not lie.
21Then I went into the regions of Syria and of Cilicia,
22but I was being unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea in Christ.
23But only they were hearing that he who was persecuting us once, now preaches the gospel, the faith which he once ravaged;
24and they glorified God in me.
