Paul, an apostle- not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead-

Galatians 1 : 2 (ESV)

and all the brothers who are with me, To the churches of Galatia:

Galatians 1 : 3 (ESV)

Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,

Galatians 1 : 4 (ESV)

who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,

Galatians 1 : 5 (ESV)

to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

Galatians 1 : 6 (ESV)

I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel-

Galatians 1 : 7 (ESV)

not that there is another one, but there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.

Galatians 1 : 8 (ESV)

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

Galatians 1 : 9 (ESV)

As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

Galatians 1 : 10 (ESV)

For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a servant of Christ.

Galatians 1 : 11 (ESV)

For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man's gospel.

Galatians 1 : 12 (ESV)

For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

For you have heard of my former life in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it.

Galatians 1 : 14 (ESV)

And I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my fathers.

Galatians 1 : 15 (ESV)

But when he who had set me apart before I was born, and who called me by his grace,

Galatians 1 : 16 (ESV)

was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with anyone;

Galatians 1 : 17 (ESV)

nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.

Galatians 1 : 18 (ESV)

Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas and remained with him fifteen days.

(In what I am writing to you, before God, I do not lie!)

Then I went into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

Galatians 1 : 22 (ESV)

And they glorified God because of me.
