Galatians 1:8 (Amplified Bible) But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to and different from that which we preached to you, let him be accursed (anathema, devoted to destruction, doomed to eternal punishment)!
These are strong words from Paul concerning the gospel, or good news, that he preached. So, just what kind of good news did Paul preach that he was so emphatic that it not be altered or changed in any way? Well, if we read the epistles written by Paul, we find a common theme of Love, Salvation by faith apart from the works of the Law, Freedom from the Law of Moses, Healing, Deliverance, Gifts of the Spirit, Righteousness before God, Holy before God, Blameless before God, Blessed by God, Sanctified, Sealed by the Holy Spirit, Filled with the Holy Spirit, and Christ crucified. It is price of the blood of the crucified Christ that bought us these gifts that are all wrapped up in the gift of salvation, available to all who receive them. It is the Good News that Paul preached that has not changed in over 2000 years, although some have tried to negate its validity.
Have A blessed day
