Galatians 1




web@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),

web@Galatians:1:2 @ and all the brothers {The word for "brothers" here and where context allows may also be correctly translated "brothers and sisters" or "siblings."} who are with me, to the assemblies of Galatia:

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

web@Galatians:1:4 @ who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father--

web@Galatians:1:5 @ to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

web@Galatians:1:6 @ I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different "good news";

web@Galatians:1:7 @ and there isn't another "good news." Only there are some who trouble you, and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.

web@Galatians:1:8 @ But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any "good news" other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.

web@Galatians:1:9 @ As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any "good news" other than that which you received, let him be cursed.

web@Galatians:1:10 @ For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn't be a servant of Christ.

web@Galatians:1:11 @ But I make known to you, brothers, concerning the Good News which was preached by me, that it is not according to man.

web@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.

web@Galatians:1:13 @ For you have heard of my way of living in time past in the Jews' religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the assembly of God, and ravaged it.

web@Galatians:1:14 @ I advanced in the Jews' religion beyond many of my own age among my countrymen, being more exceedingly zealous for the traditions of my fathers.

web@Galatians:1:15 @ But when it was the good pleasure of God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me through his grace,

web@Galatians:1:16 @ to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the Gentiles, I didn't immediately confer with flesh and blood,

web@Galatians:1:17 @ nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia. Then I returned to Damascus.

web@Galatians:1:18 @ Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to visit Peter, and stayed with him fifteen days.

web@Galatians:1:19 @ But of the other apostles I saw no one, except James, the Lord's brother.

web@Galatians:1:20 @ Now about the things which I write to you, behold, before God, I'm not lying.

web@Galatians:1:21 @ Then I came to the regions of Syria and Cilicia.

web@Galatians:1:22 @ I was still unknown by face to the assemblies of Judea which were in Christ,

web@Galatians:1:23 @ but they only heard: "He who once persecuted us now preaches the faith that he once tried to destroy."

web@Galatians:1:24 @ And they glorified God in me.
