How about this thinker............
Gal 3:1 O foolish Galatians, who hath bewitched you, that ye should not obey the truth, before whose eyes Jesus Christ hath been evidently set forth, crucified among you?
Gal 3:2 This only would I learn of you, Received ye the Spirit by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith?
Gal 3:3 Are ye so foolish? having begun in the Spirit, are ye now made perfect by the flesh?
Paul was refering to a man who started Gnosticism and mixed it with a certain type of "christianity". This man was very famous and was known by everyone from the least to the greatest. His name is Simon the Magus.
There is only one way to be "saved" from the death penalty and that is getting the Blood of the Messiah to cover your sins. It is YaHWeH the Father of the Messiah who does this for you when you go before "Him" to get the sins removed.
This Simon the Magus said otherwise and declared, he himself, as the Messiah. He started out in the Asia Minor which is where Galatia is. This man started the counterfeit "christianity".
Why did you put up this post in the quote above?
