Distorting the Gospel

I marvel that you are so quickly deserting (A)Him who called you [a]by the grace of Christ for a (B)different gospel, which is really not another, only 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 proclaim to you a gospel [b]contrary to the gospel we have proclaimed to you, let him be [c](E)accursed! As we (F)have said before, so I say again now, (G)if any man is proclaiming to you a gospel [d]contrary to what you received, let him be [e](H)accursed!

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

Not Another Gospel

I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you in the grace of Christ, for a different gospel, which is really not another gospel at all. There are, however, some who are trying to disturb you by perverting the gospel of Christ. But even if we or an angel from heaven would preach any gospel other than the one we preached to you—a curse on him! As we have said before, so I now say again: If anyone preaches to you any gospel other than the one you received—a curse on him!

10 Am I now seeking the favor of people or of God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to gain the approval of people, I would not be a servant of Christ.
