8. We preached to you the Good News. So if we ourselves, or even an angel from heaven, preach to you something different than the Good News, he should be condemned!
9. I said this before. Now I say it again: You have already accepted the Good News. If anyone tells you another way to be saved, he should be condemned!
10. Do you think I am trying to make people accept me? No! God is the One I am trying to please. Am I trying to please men? If I wanted to please men, I would not be a servant of Christ.
11. Brothers, I want you to know that the Good News I preached to you was not made by men.
12. I did not get it from men, nor did any man teach it to me. Jesus Christ showed it to me.
13. You have heard about my past life. I belonged to the Jewish religion. I hurt the church of God very much and tried to destroy it.
