Galatians 1:1
|
Paul, an apostle (not from men, neither through man, but through Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead),
|
|
Galatians 1:2
|
and all the brethren that are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
|
|
Galatians 1:3
|
Grace to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ,
|
|
Galatians 1:4
|
who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil world, according to the will of our God and Father:
|
|
Galatians 1:5
|
to whom [be] the glory for ever and ever. Amen.
|
|
Galatians 1:6
|
I marvel that ye are so quickly removing from him that called you in the grace of Christ unto a different gospel;
|
|
Galatians 1:7
|
which is not another [gospel] only there are some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
|
|
Galatians 1:8
|
But though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach unto you any gospel other than that which we preached unto you, let him be anathema.
|
|
Galatians 1:9
|
As we have said before, so say I now again, if any man preacheth unto you any gospel other than that which ye received, let him be anathema.
|
|
Galatians 1:10
|
For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? or am I striving to please men? if I were still pleasing men, I should not be a servant of Christ.
|
|
Galatians 1:11
|
For I make known to you, brethren, as touching the gospel which was preached by me, that it is not after man.
|
|
Galatians 1:12
|
For neither did I receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but [it came to me] through revelation of Jesus Christ.
|
|
Galatians 1:13
|
For ye have heard of my manner of life in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and made havoc of it:
|
|
Galatians 1:14
|
and I advanced in the Jews' religion beyond many of mine own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.
|
|
Galatians 1:15
|
But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me, [even] from my mother's womb, and called me through his grace,
|
|
Galatians 1:16
|
to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles; straightway I conferred not with flesh and blood:
|
|
Galatians 1:17
|
neither went I up to Jerusalem to them that were apostles before me: but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned unto Damascus.
|
|
Galatians 1:18
|
Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and tarried with him fifteen days.
|
|
Galatians 1:19
|
But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.
|
|
Galatians 1:20
|
Now touching the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.
|
|
Galatians 1:21
|
Then I came unto the regions of Syria and Cilicia.
|
|
Galatians 1:22
|
And I was still unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:
|
|
Galatians 1:23
|
but they only heard say, He that once persecuted us now preacheth the faith of which he once made havoc;
|
|
Galatians 1:24
|
and they glorified God in me.
