Galatians 1:11–24 (ESV)

11 For I would have you know, brothers, that the gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel.

Emphasize the fact that the gospel is a message from above and not from below. Christianity is not just another human attempt to connect with and reflect on religious experience of God. Help Christians to see that the transformation of Paul’s life as well as his knowledge of the gospel (and the message itself) testifies to divine origin. Encourage believers to trust the Bible as truth from God, to praise him for his grace, and to serve him in the places where he has put us.
