12-8-11 The Glorious Gospel

Today's Reading: Gal 1-3

Galatians 1:11–13 
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. 13 For ye 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:


Paul tells the Galatians the story of his conversion. He was once the finest and keenest of Jews, vigorously persecuting the Christian church. But then God showed him who Jesus really is, the Messiah, Son of God and Savior of the world.

God turned Paul, on the road to Damascus, from destruction to a life of faith faith. After his conversion, he spent some three years in the desert of Arabia, east of Damascus.

Paul explains that he received the gospel directly from God. He didn’t invent it himself, nor did he learn it from someone else. It was a revelation from Jesus Christ.



Tomorrow's Reading: Gal 4-6
