Where did Paul get the gospel he preached—from men or by revelation from Jesus Christ?
Paul testifies that the gospel he preached is not after man. He neither received it from man nor was taught it by men, but received it by revelation from Jesus Christ. God supernaturally saved him and taught him three years in the desert, apart from the Twelve.
Les explains that in Galatians 1:11-12 Paul certifies the brethren that the gospel he preached is not after man; he neither received it of man nor was taught it, but by the revelation from Jesus Christ. Les shows how God supernaturally reached down and saved Paul by grace on the road to Damascus, taught him for three years out in the desert down at Mount Sinai, and then did not send him back to the Twelve to pick up everything they knew. There had to be a total break between the Twelve and Paul's ministry. Paul also repeats that if any preach any other gospel than what the Galatians received from him, let him be accursed.
But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.

Why does Paul say the gospel he preached is "not after man" if it was the same gospel Jesus and Peter preached?
Paul deliberately says "the gospel which is preached of me," and that wording identifies his gospel specifically, which raises the question of why he adds "not after man" if he preached the same gospel as Jesus and Peter.
