Apostleship Defended

For I would have to know,
And I can certify;
Of the Gospel to show,
To preach and not deny.

I receive not from man,
Nor was it ever taught;
But in Christ and the plan,
A revelation sought.

For in a former life,
I persecuted the church;
But the toils and strife,
Tormented in my search.

To gain in religion,
Far beyond my own age;
I want a tradition,
To stop the jealous stage.

Christ had set me apart,
Long before I was born;
Filled grace within my heart,
In life that I sojourn.

God had revealed His Son,
In order I might preach;
Through flesh and blood was done,
And be able to teach.
