Paul defends his ministry saying, “For I would have you know, brethren that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man. For I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ” (Gal 1:11-12). You responded, by faith, to the gospel that was shared with you from others that understood the gospel that Paul preached. It is now your privilege to share the good news with others that Jesus brings to you.
