1 Corinthians 1:4-9
English Standard Version
Thanksgiving
4 I (A)give thanks to my God always for you because of the grace of God that was given you in Christ Jesus, 5 that in every way (B)you were enriched in him in all (C)speech and all knowledge— 6 even as (D)the testimony about Christ was confirmed among you— 7 so that you are not lacking in any gift, as you (E)wait for the revealing of our Lord Jesus Christ, 8 (F)who will sustain you to the end, (G)guiltless (H)in the day of our Lord Jesus Christ. 9 (I)God is faithful, by whom you were called into the (J)fellowship of his Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.

Galatians 1:6-12
English Standard Version
No Other Gospel
6 I am astonished that you are (A)so quickly deserting (B)him who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to (C)a different gospel— 7 (D)not that there is another one, but (E)there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if we or (F)an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, (G)let him be accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, (H)let him be accursed.
10 For am I now seeking the approval of man, or of God? Or am I trying (I)to please man? If I were still trying to please man, I would not be a (J)servant[a] of Christ.
Paul Called by God
11 For (K)I would have you know, brothers, that (L)the gospel that was preached by me is not man's gospel.[b] 12 (M)For I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it, but I received it (N)through a revelation of Jesus Christ.
