1Galatians 1

1Paul, an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead:Select Galatians 1:1

2And all the brethren who are with me: to the churches of Galatia.Select Galatians 1:2

3Grace be to you, and peace from God the Father and from our Lord Jesus Christ,Select Galatians 1:3

4Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present wicked world, according to the will of God and our Father:Select Galatians 1:4

5To whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.Select Galatians 1:5

6I wonder that you are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another gospel.Select Galatians 1:6

7Which is not another: only there are some that trouble you and would pervert the gospel of Christ.Select Galatians 1:7

8But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach a gospel to you besides that which we have preached to you, let him be anathema.Select Galatians 1:8

9As we said before, so now I say again: If any one preach to you a gospel, besides that which you have received, let him be anathema.Select Galatians 1:9

10For do I now persuade men, or God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.Select Galatians 1:10

11For I give you to understand, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.Select Galatians 1:11

12For neither did I receive it of man: nor did I learn it but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.Select Galatians 1:12

13For you have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion: how that, beyond measure, I persecuted the church of God and wasted it.Select Galatians 1:13

14And I made progress in the Jew's religion above many of my equals in my own nation, being more abundantly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.Select Galatians 1:14

15But when it pleased him who separated me from my mother's womb and called me by his grace,Select Galatians 1:15

16To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles: immediately I condescended not to flesh and blood.Select Galatians 1:16

17Neither went I to Jerusalem, to the apostles who were before me: but I went into Arabia, and again I returned to Damascus.Select Galatians 1:17

18Then, after three years, I went to Jerusalem to see Peter: and I tarried with him fifteen days.Select Galatians 1:18

19But other of the apostles I saw none, saving James the brother of the Lord.Select Galatians 1:19

20Now the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I lie not.Select Galatians 1:20

21Afterwards, I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia.Select Galatians 1:21

22And I was unknown by face to the churches of Judea, which were in Christ:Select Galatians 1:22

23But they had heard only: He, who persecuted us in times past doth now preach the faith which once he impugned.Select Galatians 1:23

24And they glorified God in me.Select Galatians 1:24
