( AB) 14 I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people and was extremely zealous ( AC) for the traditions of my fathers. ( Y)ġ3 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, ( Z) how intensely I persecuted the church of God ( AA) and tried to destroy it. 12 I did not receive it from any man, ( W) nor was I taught it rather, I received it by revelation ( X) from Jesus Christ. Paul Called by Godġ1 I want you to know, brothers and sisters, ( U) that the gospel I preached ( V) is not of human origin. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you, ( Q) let them be under God’s curse! ( R) 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, ( S) let them be under God’s curse!ġ0 Am I now trying to win the approval of human beings, or of God? Or am I trying to please people? ( T) If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a servant of Christ. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion ( O) and are trying to pervert ( P) the gospel of Christ. ( L) No Other GospelĦ I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called ( M) you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel ( N)- 7 which is really no gospel at all.

1 Paul, an apostle ( A)-sent not from men nor by a man, ( B) but by Jesus Christ ( C) and God the Father, ( D) who raised him from the dead ( E)- 2 and all the brothers and sisters with me, ( F)ģ Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, ( H) 4 who gave himself for our sins ( I) to rescue us from the present evil age, ( J) according to the will of our God and Father, ( K) 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever.
