The Book Of Galatians – Chapter 1:10-24 - Message 3 – Paul Resorts To Personal Testimony Series

Contributed by Ron Ferguson on Feb 3, 2023

Those engaged in ministry must not be men pleasers or compromise the gospel through fear or laziness. Preach the true gospel of grace as honest ministers. Doctrinal stability must be maintained. Paul had to restate the gospel to the Galatians using his own personal testimony.

And immediately he proclaimed Jesus in the synagogues, saying, ‘He is the Son of God.’ And all who heard him were amazed and said, ‘Is not this the man who made havoc in Jerusalem of those who called upon this name?
