I did not receive it from man

First Reading: Psalm: Gospel:

Galatians 1:6-12 Psalm 111:1-2, 7-10 Luke 10:25-37

Galatians 1:12  For I did not receive it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came through a revelation of Jesus Christ.

This is interesting.  We spend a lot of time testing people to see if they are worthy to tell us the truth.  We scrutinize the message and try to determine the truth.  But how do we judge?  Well, Paul was visited by Christ personally and we have the promise of the Holy Spirit.  We must ultimately determine what is true ourselves.

Father, help me by your Holy Spirit to be able to discern the truth.  Help me not to rely on human knowledge and agendas.  Help me to know and see truth and they communicate truth.

Amen
