Why should you study Galatians 1 and 2 until you can quote them from memory?

Studying Galatians 1 and 2 until you can quote them from memory clears away dust and cobwebs of confusion and opens up understanding, because those chapters certify Paul's apostleship and authority and show his gospel came by revelation of Jesus Christ, not from man.

Les teaches that people should study Galatians 1 and 2 until they almost know them from memory and know their content like their own name and address. He says this will blow away all the dust and cobwebs of confusion and open it all up. In those chapters, Paul certifies that the gospel he preached is not after man; he claims apostleship and authority, not because of any relationship with the twelve, having totally broken with his Jewish past, and now as the bond slave of the resurrected and ascended Lord. Verse 12 says he neither received it of man nor was taught it by man, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
