Simon the Magician Believes
9But there was a man named Simon, ewho had previously practiced magic in the city and amazed the people of Samaria, fsaying that he himself was somebody great. 10They all paid attention to him, from the least to the greatest, saying, g“This man is the power of God that is called hGreat.” 11And they paid attention to him because for a long time he had iamazed them with his magic.2 Corinthians 11:3
3But I am afraid that jas the serpent deceived Eve by his cunning, your thoughts kwill be led astray from a lsincere and mpure devotion to Christ.2 Corinthians 11:13-15
13For such men are nfalse apostles, odeceitful workmen, pdisguising themselves as apostles of Christ. 14And no wonder, for even Satan disguises himself as qan angel of light. 15So it is no surprise if his servants, also, disguise themselves as rservants of righteousness. sTheir end will correspond to their deeds.Galatians 1:6
No Other Gospel
6I am astonished that you are tso quickly deserting uhim who called you in the grace of Christ and are turning to va different gospel—Galatians 4:9
9But now that you have come to know God, or rather wto be known by God, xhow can you turn back again to ythe weak and worthless elementary principles of the world, whose slaves you want to be once more?Galatians 5:7-8
7 zYou were running well. Who hindered you from obeying aathe truth? 8This persuasion is not from abhim who calls you.Ephesians 4:14
14so that we may no longer be children, actossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in addeceitful schemes.
