Galatians 1:11-17

EJ2000(i) 11 But I make known unto you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not according to man. 12 For I did not receive it nor learn it from man, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ. 13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in Judaism, how that beyond measure I was persecuting and destroying the congregation {Gr. ekklesia – called out ones} of God 14 And profited in Judaism above many of my equals in my own nation, being exceedingly more zealous of the traditions of my fathers. 15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace, 16 to reveal his Son in me that I might preach him among the Gentiles, immediately I did not confer with flesh and blood, 17 neither did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went into Arabia and returned again unto Damascus.
