Abide in Truth - Galatians 1
After affirming that he was indeed an apostle of Jesus according to the choice that God had made, Paul writes: “8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, he is to be accursed! 9 As we have said before, so I say again now, if any man is preaching to you a gospel contrary to what you received, he is to be accursed!” (Galatians 1:8-9)
Jesus said: 31 So Jesus was saying to those Jews who had believed Him, "If you continue in My word, then you are truly disciples of Mine; 32 and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free." (John 8:31-32)
According to the Great Commission of Matt. 28 we are to be taught to “observe all things” that Jesus commands (cp. Matthew 28:18-20).
This teaching from Jesus has passed unto us through the Apostles. WE are to abide in what has been revealed. We need to examine FIRST ourselves: our beliefs, our teaching, our conduct. THEN, all other teaching that we encounter.
It is a dangerous thing to teach differently than what has been revealed.
