Galatians 1:6-12 (NRSV)
6I
am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you in
the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel — 7not
that there is another gospel, but there are some who are confusing you and
want to pervert the gospel of Christ. 8But even if we or an angel
from heaven should proclaim to you a gospel contrary to what we proclaimed
to you, let that one be accursed! 9As we have said before, so
now I repeat, if anyone proclaims to you a gospel contrary to what you received,
let that one be accursed! 10Am I now seeking human approval,
or God's approval? Or am I trying to please people? If I were still pleasing
people, I would not be a servant of Christ. 11For I want
you to know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel that was proclaimed by
me is not of human origin; 12for I did not receive it from a human
source, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a revelation of Jesus
Christ.
