GAL 1 ©

Paul’s Greeting to the Galatians

Paul, an apostle — [sent] not from men nor by man, but by Jesus Christ and God [the] Father, who raised Him from [the] dead — 2and all the brothers with me,

To the churches of Galatia:

3

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,[fn] 4who gave Himself for our sins to rescue us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, 5to whom [be] glory vvv vvv forever [and] ever. Amen.

6

No Other Gospel

I am amazed vvv how quickly you are deserting the [One who] called you by [the] grace of Christ [and are turning] to a different gospel — 7which is not even [a gospel]. Evidently some [people] are troubling you and trying to distort the gospel of Christ.

8

But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be under a curse! 9As 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 under a curse!

10

Paul Preaches the Gospel

{Am I} now seeking the approval of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, vvv vvv I would not be a servant of Christ. 11For I want you to know brothers, [that] the gospel I preached was not devised by man.[fn] 12I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught [it]; rather, [ I received it ] by revelation from Jesus Christ.

13

For you have heard of my former way of life in Judaism, how severely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it. 14I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my contemporaries [and] was extremely zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

15

But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called [me] by His grace, was pleased 16to reveal His Son in me so that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not rush to consult with flesh and blood, 17nor did I go up to Jerusalem to the apostles [who came] before me, but I went into Arabia and [later] returned to Damascus.

18

Only after three years did I go up to Jerusalem to confer with Cephas,[fn] and I stayed with him fifteen days. 19But I saw none of the other apostles except James, the Lord’s brother. 20I assure you before God that what vvv I am writing to you vvv is no lie.

21

Later I went to the regions of Syria and Cilicia. 22I was personally unknown, however, to the churches of Judea that [are] in Christ. 23They only heard the account:“The [man who] formerly persecuted us {is} now preaching the faith {he} once tried to destroy.” 24And they glorified God because of me.
