Gal 1 teaches that the source of the Good News is God, not human wisdom, logic, or feelings. Paul said that the message he preaches is from “direct revelation from Jesus Christ himself” and is not based on human ideas or thought. Paul says our peace and grace in free living are results of the cross of Jesus, which acquitted us from all penalty of sin. He says , “this is why all glory belongs to God” , since He is the one who planned it to happen this way and He alone is responsible for “rescuing us from this evil world in which we live”. So, he warns not to be fooled into turning away to “a different way that pretends to be the Good News... which twists and changes the truth concerning Christ”.
