Galatians Chapter 1

Gal 1:1 Paul an apostle, not of men, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead,
Gal 1:2 and all the brethren that are with me, to the churches of Galatia.
Gal 1:3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,
Gal 1:4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father,
Gal 1:5 to whom be glory from age to age: amen.
Gal 1:6 I wonder that you are so soon turning away from him that called you into the grace of Christ, to a different gospel,
Gal 1:7 which is not another, except that there are some that trouble you, and wish to pervert the gospel of Christ.
Gal 1:8 But though even we or an angel from heaven preach to you a gospel beside that which we preached to you, let him be accursed.
Gal 1:9 As we have said before, even now I say again, if any one preach to you a gospel beside that which you received, let him be accursed.
Gal 1:10 For do I now persuade men or God? or seek I to please men? For if I yet pleased men, Christ’s servant I should not be.
Gal 1:11 But I make known to you, brethren, the gospel that was preached by me, that it is not according to man;
Gal 1:12 for neither received I it from man, nor was I taught it, but through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
Gal 1:13 For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, that I exceedingly persecuted the church of God and laid it waste;
Gal 1:14 and I made progress in Judaism beyond many of my own age in my nation, being exceedingly a zealot for the traditions of my fathers.
Gal 1:15 But when he that set me apart from my mother’s womb, and called me through his grace, was pleased
Gal 1:16 to reveal his Son in me that I might preach him among the Gentiles, immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood;
Gal 1:17 neither went I up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
Gal 1:18 Then after three years, I went up to Jerusalem to become acquainted with Cephas; and I abode with him fifteen days;
Gal 1:19 but another of the apostles saw I not, except James the brother of the Lord.
Gal 1:20 Now as to the things that I write to you, behold, in the presence of God I lie not.
Gal 1:21 After that I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia,
Gal 1:22 but was not known personally to the churches of Judea that were in Christ;
Gal 1:23 but they had only heard that he that once persecuted us now preaches the faith which he once destroyed;
Gal 1:24 and they glorified God in me.
