48:001:015 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s
           womb, and called me by his grace,

48:001:016 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the
           heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood: 

48:001:017 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles
           before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto
           Damascus.

48:001:018 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter,
           and abode with him fifteen days.

48:001:019 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord’s
           brother.

48:001:020 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I
           lie not.

48:001:021 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;

48:001:022 And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were
           in Christ: 

48:001:023 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times
           past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.

48:001:024 And they glorified God in me.

48:002:001 Then fourteen years after I went up again to Jerusalem with
           Barnabas, and took Titus with me also.

48:002:002 And I went up by revelation, and communicated unto them that
           gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but privately to
           them which were of reputation, lest by any means I should run,
           or had run, in vain.

48:002:003 But neither Titus, who was with me, being a Greek, was
           compelled to be circumcised: 

48:002:004 And that because of false brethren unawares brought in, who
           came in privily to spy out our liberty which we have in Christ
           Jesus, that they might bring us into bondage: 

48:002:005 To whom we gave place by subjection, no, not for an hour; that
           the truth of the gospel might continue with you.

48:002:006 But of these who seemed to be somewhat, (whatsoever they were,
           it maketh no matter to me:  God accepteth no man’s person:) for
           they who seemed to be somewhat in conference added nothing to
           me: 

48:002:007 But contrariwise, when they saw that the gospel of the
           uncircumcision was committed unto me, as the gospel of the
           circumcision was unto Peter;

48:002:008 (For he that wrought effectually in Peter to the apostleship
           of the circumcision, the same was mighty in me toward the
           Gentiles:)

48:002:009 And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars,
           perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me
           and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go
           unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.
