Galatians 1:11-24

Part 2 (Galatians 1:11-24) zooms in on Paul’s personal testimony to prove that the gospel he preaches is heaven-sent, not human-made. He reminds the Galatians that the same Saul who once hunted believers met the risen Jesus, was reborn by sheer grace, and immediately began proclaiming Christ to the very Gentiles he’d ignored. Three years later Peter, James, and the other pillars gladly gave him the right hand of fellowship, adding nothing to his message—so the Good News that saves is still Jesus + nothing. Paul’s story challenges us, too: know what you believe, measure it against Scripture, and share it boldly, because even the fiercest opponent can become God’s chosen messenger.
