BEWARE of those that are twisting Gods Word & then passing it off as a new & improved or enlightened understanding. Galatians 1:6-9 1599 Geneva Bible (GNV) 6 [a]I marvel that ye are so soon [b]removed away unto another Gospel, from him that had called you in the grace of Christ, 7 [c]Which is not another Gospel, save that there be some which trouble you, and intend to [d]pervert the Gospel of Christ. 8 But though that we, or an Angel from heaven preach unto you otherwise than that which we have preached unto you, let him be [e]accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach unto you otherwise than that ye have received, let him be accursed. Footnotes: a.Galatians 1:6 The first part of the Epistle wherein he witnesseth that he is an Apostle, nothing inferior to those chief disciples of Christ, and wholly agreeing with them, whose names the false apostles did abuse. And he beginneth with chiding, reproving them of lightness for that they have ear so easily unto them which perverted them and drew them away to a new Gospel. b.Galatians 1:6 He useth the passive voice, to cast the fault upon the false apostles, and he useth the time that now is, to give them to understand, that it was not already done, but in doing. c.Galatians 1:7 He warneth them in time to remember that there are not many Gospels, and therefore whatsoever these false apostles pretend which had the Law, Moses and the Fathers in their mouths, yet they are in deed so many corruptions of the true Gospel, insomuch that he himself, yea, and the very Angels themselves, (and therefore much more these false apostles) ought to be holden accursed, if they go about to change the least iota that may be in the Gospel, that he delivered to them before. d.Galatians 1:7 For there is nothing more contrary to faith or free justification, than justification by the Law, or by our deserving. e.Galatians 1:8 See Rom. 9:3.
