There Is Only One True Gospel

If just one thing, let me remind you, if just one thing is added to the gospel, it's no longer the true gospel. This is a glass of pure water. As far as I know, unless somebody did something to it.

While I wasn't watching.

This is a glass of pure water. What if somebody took a dropper and it's one drop of cyanide. One, it's just, well, it's still water, right?

You want to drink it?

That's the illustration here. You add just one thing to the gospel, it is no longer the gospel. You take away one thing, it is no longer the gospel. Paul says, which is not another, because there is only one.

But there are some who trouble you and want to pervert the gospel of Christ. And here's one of the strongest statements you will ever hear on this subject. He could not make it any more clear. He says, but even if we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel to you than that which we have preached to you, let him be accursed.

Even an angel from heaven, and by the way, the gospels of Mormonism and Islam, both Joseph Smith and Muhammad said they received those gospels from an angel. Paul says, as we have said before, in case you missed it, as we have said before, so now I say again, if anyone preaches any other gospel to you than that which you have received, let him be accursed.

And the Greek word translated accursed is anathema, and it means they are to be eternally doomed. There is only one gospel that saves, faith alone in the death, burial, and resurrection of Christ.
