    Galatians 1:3–10

    3Grace to you and peace from God the Father and our Lord Jesus Christ,

    4who gave himself for our sins, that he might deliver us out of this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father—

    5to whom be the glory forever and ever. Amen.

    6I marvel that you are so quickly deserting him who called you in the grace of Christ to a different “good news”,

    7but there isn’t another “good news.” Only there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the Good News of Christ.

    8But even though we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you any “good news” other than that which we preached to you, let him be cursed.

    9As we have said before, so I now say again: if any man preaches to you any “good news” other than that which you received, let him be cursed.

    10For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? For if I were still pleasing men, I wouldn’t be a servant of Christ.

  • Gospel

    1He called the twelve together, and gave them power and authority over all demons, and to cure diseases.

    2He sent them out to preach God’s Kingdom and to heal the sick.

    3He said to them, “Take nothing for your journey—no staffs, nor wallet, nor bread, nor money. Don’t have two coats each.

    4Into whatever house you enter, stay there, and depart from there.

    5As many as don’t receive you, when you depart from that city, shake off even the dust from your feet for a testimony against them.”

    6They departed and went throughout the villages, preaching the Good News and healing everywhere.
