Galatians 1:10-12
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
10 Am I now seeking human approval, or God’s approval? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still pleasing people, I would not be a servant[a] of Christ.
Paul’s Vindication of His Apostleship
11 For I want you to know, brothers and sisters,[b] that the gospel that was proclaimed by me is not of human origin; 12 for I did not receive it from a human source, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
