The essentials in this passage safeguard us against error, lies and deceit from religious and worldly sources. We are warned to beware of anyone who adds to the Gospel. Your flesh doesn't compare to what you have in Jesus Christ. You have gained him and received the gift of righteousness. Christ himself is the goal. Enemies will tray to pull you off the path, so beware. You can identify them because their minds are set on early things. Our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await Jesus.
