Galatians 1:10

A Different Gospel

⁹ What I have just said I repeat--if any one is preaching to you a Good News other than that which you originally received, let him be accursed. ¹⁰ For is it man's favour or God's that I aspire to? Or am I seeking to please men? If I were still a man-pleaser, I should not be Christ's bondservant. ¹¹ For I must tell you, brethren, that the Good News which was proclaimed by me is not such as man approves of.
