About Galatians 1Paul, an apostle "not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ," marvels that the Galatians are "so soon removed" to "another gospel," and says that anyone, even "an angel from heaven," who preaches any other gospel, "let him be accursed." He insists the gospel he preached "is not after man," for he received it "by the revelation of Jesus Christ." He tells how he once "persecuted the church of God," how God "called me by his grace" to preach Christ among the heathen, and how he went into Arabia, returned to Damascus, and only after three years went up to Jerusalem to see Peter.
