Why Paul's Gospel Was Different — Galatians 1:11 Explained

B29L6 What did Paul mean when he said his gospel was not after man? In this verse-by-verse study through Galatians 1, Romans 16, and Ephesians 3, discover how Paul received the gospel by direct revelation from the risen Christ — a mystery kept secret since the world began. This study begins in 1 Corinthians 15:23, examining the order of the resurrection — Christ the First Fruits, then those who are Christ's at His coming. Les then traces how God raised up Saul of Tarsus and set him apart to take the Gospel of Grace to the Gentiles. In Galatians 1, Paul declares that the gospel he preached was not received from men but by the revelation of Jesus Christ — a crucial distinction most believers miss. Paul emphasizes he did not go to Jerusalem to learn from the other apostles but spent three years in Arabia. In Romans 16:25, Paul reveals this message was a mystery kept secret since the world began. Finally in Ephesians 3, Les shows how the risen Lord Jesus from heaven revealed these truths to Paul — truths not made known to the sons of men in previous ages. 🔑 Key Topics Covered: • Why Paul's gospel was not after man — Galatians 1:11-12 • The order of the resurrection — 1 Corinthians 15:23 • How Paul received the gospel by revelation of Jesus Christ • Paul's three years in Arabia after his conversion • The mystery kept secret since the world began — Romans 16:25 • The dispensation of God's grace given to Paul for us — Ephesians 3:2 • The unsearchable riches of Christ preached to the Gentiles — Ephesians 3:8 • The eternal purpose of God in Christ Jesus — Ephesians 3:11 Paul's gospel by revelation, Galatians 1:11 explained, mystery kept secret Romans 16:25, Ephesians 3 verse by verse, Paul the apostle to the Gentiles, dispensation of grace, unsearchable riches of Christ, verse by verse Bible study, Pauline doctrine, right division Bible study.
