VERSE OF THE DAY (COMMENTARY BY SPURGEON)

“But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to what we have preached to you, a curse be on him!” (Galatians 1:8)

Paul makes short work with newfangled “gospels.” He does not trifle with divine truth as if it were a matter of no consequence what is preached or what is believed. The modern style of speaking is, “Let us fellowship with him; he is a man of original thought. Surely you would not bind all men down to one mode of speech. Perhaps if he has made mistakes, you will bring him around to your way of thinking by receiving him kindly into your fellowship.” “No, no,” says Paul. “As we said before, so now I say again: if anyone preaches any other gospel to you contrary to what you have received, let him be accursed.”

PRAY FOR THE NATIONS

This week, we’re praying for the Amat in India.

Christ alone can save, “There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to people by which we must be saved” (Act 4:12). The Amat have never heard of this name.

Pray that God would save the Amat.
