Galatians 1:11-13

New International Reader's Version

Paul Was Appointed by God

¹¹ Brothers and sisters, here is what I want you to know. The good news I preached does not come from human beings. ¹² No one gave it to me. No one taught it to me. Instead, I received it from Jesus Christ. He showed it to me.

¹³ You have heard how I lived earlier in my Jewish way of life. With all my strength I attacked the church of God. I tried to destroy it.
