Galatians 1:10

---

← Galatians 1:9	Galatians 1:10 (KJV)	Galatians 1:11 →
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.	For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ.	But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
