No Other Gospel

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— (D)not that there is another one, but (E)there are some who trouble you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. 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. 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.

Distortion of the Gospel

I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting (A)Him who called you [a]by the grace of Christ, for a (B)different gospel, which is not just another account; but there are some who are (C)disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ. But even if we, or (D)an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be [b](E)accursed! As we (F)have said before, even now I say again: (G)if anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be [c](H)accursed!

10 For am I now (I)seeking the favor of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a (J)bond-servant of Christ.
