Paul Called by God
11
I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel I preached is not of human origin.
12
I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.
13

14

15
But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, was pleased
16
to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, my immediate response was not to consult any human being.
17
I did not go up to Jerusalem to see those who were apostles before I was, but I went into Arabia. Later I returned to Damascus.
