Galatians 1 King James Version (KJV) 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel: 7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we said before, so say I now again, if any man preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed. 10 For do I now persuade men, or God? or do I seek to please men? for if I yet pleased men, I should not be the servant of Christ. 11 But I certify you, brethren, that the gospel which was preached of me is not after man. 12 For I neither received it of man, neither was I taught it, but by the revelation of Jesus Christ.
What 'adding' to the Gospel would/should result in an anathema?
When I look around CF I see a lot and I mean a lot of people claiming they belong to a church that maintains 'the faith once delivered to the saints!' but their doctrines and worship looks nothing like the New Testament. In fact, they actually require specific and special doctrines for salvation that they will readily admit didn't exist for hundreds of years after the establishment of the canon.
Is requiring the belief in an unscriptural doctrine reason to be accursed?
