Galatians 1:9

7 ^awhich is not another; but there are some ^bwho trouble you and want to ^cpervert the gospel of Christ.

8 But even if ^awe, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than what we have preached to you, let him be¹ accursed.

9 As we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you ^athan what you have received, let him be accursed.

10 For ^ado I now ^bpersuade men, or God? Or ^cdo I seek to please men? For if I still pleased men, I would not be a bondservant of Christ.

11 ^aBut I make known to you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached by me is not according to man.

12 For ^aI neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but it came ^bthrough the revelation of Jesus Christ.

What Does Galatians 1:9 Mean?

Galatians 1:8-9

Does it matter what gospel Christians believe? Indeed, it does! Paul pronounces a double curse on anyone who preaches a gospel different from the one preached by the apostles! The gospel is serious business! The apostles were taught directly by Christ, who gave them a commission to "preach the gospel" (Mark 16:15).
