Hey everybody I'm Matt. This is the 10 minute Bible hour podcast and if you did not listen to yesterday's conversation

about the narrow gate and the wide road and American gladiators like if none of that is

ringing a bell for you then what we do next is going to be utterly

baffling so you might want to go back and catch that and then I'm just going to play some

intro music right now and then we're just going to abruptly pick up right where we left off on yesterday's stuff.

Look at what's being said by the person who points toward this road or that road over there

and consider what those words produce in terms of action in terms of character in terms of action, of character, in terms of reason.

But then that of course raises the question, well what actually is orthodoxy?

How do you know which thing is true to even compare what different road pointers are saying to

know which one is real and which one is fake and bad?

And as we try to track down an answer to that, just no, it was a problem back then.

People didn't always get it right and they lived really close to the time of Jesus.

I mean, this is Galatians 1-6.

Paul's right into a church or a collection of regional churches.

We're not quite sure which and he says,

I'm astonished that you're so quickly deserting the one who called you by the

grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel,

which is really no gospel at all.

Evidently some people are throwing you into confusion and trying to

pervert the gospel of Christ, but even if we or an angel from heaven should preach a gospel

other than the one we preach to you, let him be eternally condemned.

So, wow, strong words, okay, but what is that gospel?
