^(C1)Grace to you and peace from ^(F1)God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

who ^(C1)gave Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us from ^(C2)this present evil ^(F1)age, according to the will of ^(C3)our God and Father,

^(C1)to whom be the glory forevermore. Amen.

I am amazed that you are so quickly deserting ^(C1)Him who called you ^(F1)by the grace of Christ, for a ^(C2)different gospel,

which is not just another account; but there are some who are ^(C1)disturbing you and want to distort the gospel of Christ.

But even if we, or ^(C1)an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be ^(F1)(C2)accursed!

As we ^(C1)have said before, even now I say again: ^(C2)if anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be ^(F1)(C3)accursed!

For am I now ^(C1)seeking the favor of people, or of God? Or am I striving to please people? If I were still trying to please people, I would not be a ^(C2)bond-servant of Christ.

For ^(C1)I would have you know, brothers and sisters, that the gospel which was preached by me is ^(C2)not ^(F1)of human invention.

For ^(C1)I neither received it from man, nor was I taught it, but I received it through a ^(C2)revelation of Jesus Christ.
