Scams and hoaxes are commonplace in our day.
False teachers have also existed for a long time.
How can Apostle Paul assure the Galatians that his message is true and reliable?
He explains his message was a direct download from the Lord Jesus Christ in a supernatural revelation.
He also stated categorically that he did not consult with any man thereafter.
The fact that this persecutor will become a preacher, and that his message is consistent with the faith of the Jerusalem Apostles, show that his gospel is the one true and reliable message that broke from Heaven.
Paul’s gospel is no man’s gospel. It is from God alone.
It is the only message then we must depend on in order to be saved.
And it is the message we must defend at all costs.
May we determine to know nothing except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
Let us make the gospel explicit and central in all our ministries and relationships.
The main thing is to keep the main thing the main thing!
