Galatians 1 Summary

Paul Defense of the Gospel

Paul is astonished that the Galatians are turning to a different gospel. He pronounces anathema on anyone - even an angel - who preaches a gospel different from the one received. He recounts his conversion and how he received the gospel not from man but by revelation of Jesus Christ.
