WEBVTT 00:02.620 --> 00:07.120 The Epistle of Paul the Apostle to the Galatians, Chapter 1. 00:07.980 --> 00:14.360 Paul, an apostle, not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the 00:14.360 --> 00:16.420 Father, who raised him from the dead. 00:17.160 --> 00:22.460 And all the brethren which are with me unto the churches of Galatia, grace be to 00:22.460 --> 00:26.540 you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, 00:26.540 --> 00:31.360 who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present 00:31.360 --> 00:37.340 evil world, according to the will of God and our Father, to whom be glory for ever 00:37.340 --> 00:38.040 and ever. 00:38.620 --> 00:38.960 Amen. 00:40.240 --> 00:44.500 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of 00:44.500 --> 00:49.800 Christ unto another gospel, which is not another, but there be some that trouble 00:49.800 --> 00:52.240 you and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 00:52.240 --> 00:57.260 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you, 00:57.560 --> 01:01.300 than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 01:02.100 --> 01:09.120 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other gospel unto 01:09.120 --> 01:12.580 you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. 01:13.580 --> 01:16.320 For do I now persuade men, or God? 01:16.740 --> 01:18.560 or do I seek to please men? 01:19.280 --> 01:23.860 For if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. 01:24.480 --> 01:29.660 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not 01:29.660 --> 01:30.500 after man. 01:30.860 --> 01:36.220 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the 01:36.220 --> 01:38.000 revelation of Jesus Christ. 01:38.640 --> 01:42.740 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews' religion, 01:42.740 --> 01:49.380 how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it, and profited 01:49.380 --> 01:55.620 in the Jews' religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly 01:55.620 --> 01:57.780 zealous of the traditions of my fathers. 01:58.440 --> 02:03.920 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb, and called me by 02:03.920 --> 02:09.540 his grace to reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen 02:09.540 --> 02:13.300 immediately, I conferred not with flesh and blood. 02:14.780 --> 02:18.960 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me. 02:19.500 --> 02:23.120 But I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus. 02:23.660 --> 02:29.080 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him 02:29.080 --> 02:30.260 fifteen days. 02:31.020 --> 02:35.380 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother. 02:36.200 --> 02:41.460 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not. 02:42.180 --> 02:48.540 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia, and was unknown by face 02:48.540 --> 02:51.260 unto the churches of Judea which were in Christ. 02:51.680 --> 02:57.340 But they had heard only, that he which persecuted us in times past, now preacheth 02:57.340 --> 03:02.340 the faith which once he destroyed, and they glorify God in me.
