Greeting

1Paul, an aapostle—bnot from men nor through man, but cthrough Jesus Christ and God the Father, dwho raised him from the dead— 2and all ethe brothers1 who are with me,

To fthe churches of Galatia:

3gGrace to you and peace hfrom God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, 4iwho gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present jevil age, according to the will of kour God and Father, 5to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

No Other Gospel

6I am astonished that you are lso quickly deserting mhim who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to na different gospel— 7onot that there is another one, but pthere are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 8But even if we or qan angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, rlet him be accursed. 9As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, rlet him be accursed.

10For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying sto please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a tservant2 of Christ.
