Nolan, Paul is concerned that they are willing to accept another Jesus ... put up with it easily enough (NIV or you submit to it readily enough (RSV). "Pathetically tolerant," is what I would of told them. Mark 7:9 comes to mind, where what God was said was rejected, to follow their own way. No punches pulled here. After you listen to lies long enough, you may believe them. Galatans 1:6-9 is another passage were Paul sends out a warning about different gospel. We need to be aware of what we hear and stop listening to someone who preaches different gospel. Do not give them a chance, but speak to them the truth, in love ... be ready to give an answer about what you believe. The context (vs. 3) shows that Eve listened to the serpent - the fruit looked beautiful to her and so did what the serpent promised. She already had added to what God said. What about us?

Thank you Steve! Ryrie's Expanded Edition Study Bible states, "Paul here and in verse 5 is speaking sarcastically. Of course, he did not want them to submit to false teachers nor did he regard these smooth talkers as "apostles" in any sense." Thanks Steve for a most informative answer that was based upon the inerrancy of Scripture! :) Nolan |
