Galatians 1:1–9

Paul, an apostlea—sent not from men nor by a man,b but by Jesus Christc and God the Father,d who raised him from the deade—2 and all the brothers and sistersa with me,f

To the churches in Galatia:g

3 Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ,h 4 who gave himself for our sinsi to rescue us from the present evil age,j according to the will of our God and Father,k 5 to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.l

No Other Gospel

6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who calledm you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospeln—7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people are throwing you into confusiono and are trying to pervertp the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel other than the one we preached to you,q let them be under God’s curse!r 9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted,s let them be under God’s curse!
