Acts 9:20

20And immediately he proclaimed Jesus in the synagogues, saying, aHe is the Son of God.”

Galatians 1:11-17

Paul Called by God

11For bI would have you know, brothers, that cthe gospel that was preached by me is not man’s gospel.
Greek not according to man
12 eFor I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it fthrough a revelation of Jesus Christ. 13For you have heard of gmy former life in Judaism, how hI persecuted the church of God violently and tried to destroy it. 14And I was advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people, so extremely izealous was I for jthe traditions of my fathers. 15But when he kwho had set me apart lbefore I was born,
Greek  set me apart from my mother’s womb
and who ncalled me by his grace,
16was pleased to reveal his Son to
Greek in
me, in order pthat I might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not immediately consult with anyone;
Greek with flesh and blood
17nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me, but I went away into Arabia, and returned again to Damascus.
