Lesson 2071

(Lesson 2071)(08-04-17)  Galatians 1:1-9
    “Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;) And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia: Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ, Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father: To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen. I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed.”

    In the first part of today’s quote Paul greeted the brothers and sisters at Galatia and expressed his reason for writing. Paul wrote this letter because, just like the Corinthians, some of the Galatians were leaving the doctrine of Christ and alllowing the traditions of the Jews to lead them astray.~
