Daily Nugget:<\/strong>
In writing to the church in Galatia (Galatians 1:2), Paul saw something in the church that displeased him.\u00a0He was concerned that they learned what he taught them, but changed it.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Paul had taught them was given to the apostle as a revelation from Jesus Christ (Galatians 1:12). The Gospel was not open to discussion or change, yet that is what they were doing. They were preaching and teaching another \u201cgospel\u201d (Galatians 1:6) other than what they had first learned. Since there is only one Gospel, what they were teaching was false. It was a perversion of the truth (Galatians 1:7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, similar perversions are occurring. Many churches and denominations teach doctrines contrary to those of the preserved King James Bible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Even the changing of the foundation of the truth, the Bible, is rampant everywhere. Over 300 different perversions of God\u2019s Word in English further add to other teachings. The result is more confusion, fewer conversions, and many opinions of what men think God\u2019s Word says or means.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Something newer and better should warn believers that something is amiss. The \u201cmodernized and less strict\u201d church services, modern music, and new, revised \u201cbibles\u201d should send shivers down a Christian\u2019s spine that something is changing. God\u2019s Word is perfect; it does not need revision. If it did, the Lord Himself would be the one doing it, not man. There is one God and one way to please Him \u2014 His way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today\u2019s Reading:<\/strong>
Galatians 1
1 Paul, an apostle, (not of men, neither by man, but by Jesus Christ, and God the Father, who raised him from the dead;)
2 And all the brethren which are with me, unto the churches of Galatia:
3 Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and from our Lord Jesus Christ,
4 Who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us from this present evil world, according to the will of God and our Father:
5 To whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen.
6 \u00b6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ.
8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed.
9 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.
10 \u00b6 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.
11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man.
12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
13 For ye have heard of my conversation in time past in the Jews’ religion, how that beyond measure I persecuted the church of God, and wasted it:
14 And profited in the Jews’ religion above many my equals in mine own nation, being more exceedingly zealous of the traditions of my fathers.
15 But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,
16 To reveal his Son in me, that I might preach him among the heathen; immediately I conferred not with flesh and blood:
17 Neither went I up to Jerusalem to them which were apostles before me; but I went into Arabia, and returned again unto Damascus.
18 Then after three years I went up to Jerusalem to see Peter, and abode with him fifteen days.
19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord’s brother.
20 Now the things which I write unto you, behold, before God, I lie not.
21 Afterwards I came into the regions of Syria and Cilicia;
22 And was unknown by face unto the churches of Judaea which were in Christ:
23 But they had heard only, That he which persecuted us in times past now preacheth the faith which once he destroyed.
24 And they glorified God in me.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
