I'm surprised that you are so fast turn around than he, who by the grace of Christ has called you, and follow a Gospel, which actually is not the Gospel. (Galatians 1: 6-7a)

Bible in a year: 1kings 9; 2 Chronicles 8

According to the story, there is a unique habit in the bank environment to train employees to recognize counterfeit money. For a few months they were asked to count the money, which is certainly original, in large quantities. Then afterwards, tuck a few pieces of counterfeit money in the pile to be counted. Interestingly, employees easily recognize this fake money. The habit of holding the original money quickly helped them feel any counterfeit money.
Paul was very furious when the churches of Galatia easily accept a different teaching with who ever he taught. Easily these false teachers pervert the Gospel Truth and confuse the Church (verse 7). The church quickly receive and be confused because this instruction may have some similarities with the teaching they had received. However, something similar still is not something original. Something "a bit wrong" obviously is not something that is true. Even Paul doesn't hesitate to say those who preach the Gospel is different as "damned" (verses 8-9). Someone who shifts the importance of Christ's cross from the life of the believer, verily, being humble masterpieces of God.
It is sometimes difficult to distinguish the authenticity of our error or a teaching. What our efforts to avoid the wrong instruction? believes At least we have diligently read the sources personally, namely the truth of the Bible? Habit to hang out with the pure Gospel will make it easier we recognize that is not pure. --PBS
