Galatians 1 📜 📕 ↷
Paul's Greeting to the Galatians
1 PAUL an Apostle not of men, neither by man, but by JESUS Christ, and God the Father that raised him from the dead,📜💬📚
2 and all the brethren that are with me; to the churches of Galatia.📜💬📚
3 Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord JESUS Christ,📜💬📚
4 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present wicked world, according to the will of our God and Father:📜💬📚
5 to whom is glory for ever and ever. Amen.📜💬📚
No Other Gospel
6 I marvel that thus so soon you are transferred from him that called you into the grace of Christ, unto another Gospel:📜💬📚
7 which is not another, unless there be some that trouble you, and will invert the Gospel of Christ.📜💬📚
8 But although we, or an Angel from Heaven, evangelize to you beside that which we have evangelized to you, be he anathema.📜💬📚
9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If any evangelize to you, beside that which you have received, be he anathema.📜💬📚
Paul Preaches the Gospel
10 For do I now use persuasion to men, or to God? Or do I seek to please men? If I yet did please men, I should not be the servant of Christ.📜💬📚
11 For I do you to understand, brethren, the Gospel that was evangelized of me, that it is not according to man.📜💬📚
12 For neither did I receive it of man, nor learn it; but by the revelation of JESUS Christ.📜💬📚
13 For you have heard my conversation sometime in Judaism, that above measure I persecuted the Church of God, and expugned it,📜💬📚
14 and profited in Judaism above many of mine equals in my nation, being more abundantly in emulator of the traditions of my fathers.📜💬📚
15 But when it pleased him that separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by his grace, to reveal his Son in me,📜💬📚
16 that I should evangelize him among the Gentiles, incontinent I condescended not to flesh and blood,📜💬📚
17 neither came I to Jerusalem to the Apostles my antecessors: but I went into Arabia, and again I returned to Damascus.📜💬📚
18 Then, after three years I came to Jerusalem to see Peter: and tarried with him fifteen days.📜💬📚
19 But other of the Apostles saw I none; saving James the brother of our Lord.📜💬📚
20 And the things that I write to you; behold before God, that I lie not.📜💬📚
21 After that, I came into the parts of Syria and Cilicia.📜💬📚
22 And I was unknown by sight to the churches of Jewry, that were in Christ:📜💬📚
23 but they had heard only, That he which persecuted us sometime, doth now evangelize the faith which sometime he expugned:📜💬📚
24 and in me they glorified God.📜💬📚
