Brethren, I would have you know that the gospel

which was preached by me is not man's gospel.
For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught
it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
For you have heard of my former life in Judaism,
how I persecuted the church of God violently and
tried to destroy it; and I advanced in Judaism
beyond many of my own age among my people,
so extremely zealous was I for the traditions of my
fathers. But when he who had set me apart before
I was born, and had called me through his grace,
was pleased to reveal his Son to me, in order that I
might preach him among the Gentiles, I did not
confer with flesh and blood, nor did I go up to
Jerusalem to those who were apostles before me,
but I went away into Arabia; and again I returned
to Damascus. Then after three years I went up to
Jerusalem to visit Cephas, and remained with him
fifteen days. But I saw none of the other apostles
except James the Lord's brother.

At that time, Jesus went to a city called Nain,

and his disciples and a great crowd went with
him. As he drew near to the gate of the city,
behold, a man who had died was being carried
out, the only son of his mother, and she was a
widow; and a large crowd from the city was
with her. And when the Lord saw her, he had
compassion on her and said to her, "Do not
weep." And he came and touched the bier, and
the bearers stood still. And he said, "Young
man, I say to you, arise." And the dead man sat
up, and began to speak. And he gave him to his
mother. Fear seized them all; and they glorified
God, saying, "A great prophet has arisen among
us!" and "God has visited his people!"

They dwell in their own countries, but simply as sojourners. As citizens, they share in all things with others,
and yet endure all things as if foreigners. Every foreign land is to them as their native country, and every
land of their birth as a land of strangers. They marry, as do all [others]; they beget children; but they do not
destroy their offspring. They have a common table, but not a common bed. They are in the flesh, but they
do not live after the flesh. They pass their days on earth, but they are citizens of heaven. They obey the
prescribed laws, and at the same time surpass the laws by their lives. They love all men, and are persecuted
by all. They are unknown and condemned; they are put to death, and restored to life. They are poor, yet
make many rich; they are in lack of all things, and yet abound in all; they are dishonoured, and yet in their
very dishonour are glorified. They are evil spoken of, and yet are justified; they are reviled, and bless; they
are insulted, and repay the insult with honour; they do good, yet are punished as evil-doers. When
punished, they rejoice as if quickened into life; they are assailed by the Jews as foreigners, and are
persecuted by the Greeks; yet those who hate them are unable to assign any reason for their hatred.
