Pay particular attention to what Christ teaches up front (baptism) and about contentions about His doctrine.

Galations 1:6-9

thanks in advance!

My response: Why do those that do not believe in the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints publish and teach our doctrines to the world when Galations 1:6-9 clearly commands that they should do no such thing. If they do not believe it is the gospel of Christ - they should not be drawing attention to it, publishing anything about it or teaching others about it. Galations 1:6-9 clearly commands that someone should only teach what they believe (recieved) and leave all other doctrines alone - other wise they will be cursed by G-d (meaning the truth will be lost to them).

Our response is verses 11-12.

If your correspondent is Protestant, it may be helpful to thoughtfully ask why it was OK for Martin Luther (or Calvin, or Wycliffe, or any other Reformer) to teach a gospel that was in some regards different than the pre-existing Catholicism; but it's not OK for Joseph Smith to teach a gospel that is in some regards different than the pre-existing Protestant dogma.

Do Mormons teach a different gospel than the one taught by Paul?

All that verse tells me is how quickly the apostasy was to come.

It seems logical that if we are rewarded for sharing the gospel, (Matt 19:29) that punishment follows leading people away from the truth. Isn't that all those versus are saying?
