which is not another; but there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ.
8
But even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be accursed.
9

12
For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through the revelation of Jesus Christ.
13
For you have heard of my former conduct in Judaism, how I persecuted the church of God beyond measure and tried to destroy it.
14

15
But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother's womb and called me through His grace,
16
to reveal His Son in me, that I might preach Him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately confer with flesh and blood,
17
nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me; but I went to Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
