1Paul, ^aan apostle—not from men or by man, but by Jesus Christ and God the Father ^bwho raised Him from the dead ^c— ²and all the brothers who are with me:

To the churches of Galatia. ^d^e

³Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord ^fJesus Christ, ⁴who gave Himself for our sins ^gto rescue us from this present evil age, ^haccording to the will of our God and Father. ⁱ⁵To whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

No Other Gospel

⁶I am amazed that you are so quickly turning away from Him who called ^jyou by the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— ⁷not that there is another gospel, ^kbut there are some ^lwho are troubling you and want to change the good news ^mabout the Messiah. ⁸But even if we or an angel ⁿfrom heaven should preach to you a gospel other than what we have preached to you, ^oa curse be on him! ^p⁹As we have said before, I now say again: If anyone preaches to you a gospel contrary to what you received, ^qa curse be on him!

¹⁰For am I now trying to win the favor of people, or God? ^rOr am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a slave of Christ.

Read in Logos

Galatians 1:3–5: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave himself for our sins to deliver us from the present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.
