The Jerusalem Decree

The apostles, the elders, and the brethren,

Defending the Gospel(A)
2 Then after fourteen years (B)I went up again to Jerusalem with Barnabas, and also took Titus with me. 2 And I went up [a]by revelation, and communicated to them that gospel which I preach among the Gentiles, but (C)privately to those who were of reputation, lest by any means (D)I might run, or had run, in vain.

Only One Gospel
6 I marvel that you are turning away so soon (A)from Him who called you in the grace of Christ, to a different gospel, 7 (B)which is not another; but there are some (C)who trouble you and want to (D)pervert[a] the gospel of Christ. 8 But even if (E)we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be [b]accursed. 9 As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you (F)than what you have received, let him be accursed.
10 For (G)do I now (H)persuade men, or God? Or (I)do I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

Serving All Men
19 For though I am (A)free from all men, (B)I have made myself a servant to all, (C)that I might win the more; 20 and (D)to the Jews I became as a Jew, that I might win Jews; to those who are under the law, as under the [a]law, that I might win those who are under the law; 21 (E)to (F)those who are without law, as without law (G)(not being without [b]law toward God, but under [c]law toward Christ), that I might win those who are without law; 22 (H)to the weak I became [d]as weak, that I might win the weak. (I)I have become all things to all men, (J)that I might by all means save some. 23 Now this I do for the gospel’s sake, that I may be partaker of it with you.
