Testosterone Gospel Part 3 (God’s Sovereign Call.): Exposition of Galatians 1:11-17

1)The King of the Universe personally instructed the Apostle Paul in the Gospel and its power. Like the Prophet Jonah, God crushed the old Paul and remade him to perform His will. (Galatians 1:11,12; Jonah 2)

2)The Apostle Paul was a “Super-Jew” in every sense of the word. Paul’s zeal for the traditions of Pharisaical Judaism was unmatched, both in his orthodoxy, and orthopraxy. (Galatians 1:13-14; Acts 22:1-21)

3)Paul reveals how God predestined his calling from the womb. The Bible clearly shows God’s sovereignty when He chooses a vessel to glorify Him. During important times in Covenant history this is an essential theme. Examine the lives of the Prophet Jeremiah and John the Baptist for confirmation. (Galatians 1:15-17; Jeremiah 1:4-10; Luke 1:5-17; 39-45)
