Jude series message 1

Text: Jude 1-4

Jude is a fascinating book, rich with vivid images from the Old Testament. It is thoughtfully written and, in great detail, calls out the apostates - those who depart from the truth. Their teaching and behavior go hand-in-hand, and both have consequences. Two big questions: what does contending look like, and what are we contending for? Jude's humble posture is followed by an authoritative ‘smackdown’ of those who deny Jesus Christ and the gospel, one that we surely cannot ignore today.
