Hello you; talking about the epistle Jude: Read along if you would like.
Jude 1:1 Jude, the servant of Jesus Christ, and brother of James, to them that are sanctified by God the Father, and preserved in Jesus Christ, and called:
There was a group of people a long time ago Jude wrote about and is also a resemblance to 2 peter and other letters.
These people would abuse the grace of God to continue to sin so grace may abound!
Paul preaches a very different message when it comes to this teaching.
Romans 6:1 What shall we do then? Shall we continue in sin so that grace may abound? God forbid (No.) How shall we who died to sin, live in it any longer.
These people who were crafty in the assemblies of believers but they would advert the teaching and deny God and the Lord. (If you keep reading Jude)
(The people who snuck in to the assemblies of believers - where those who were not open to their beliefs - )
It talks about how we are to contend for the faith, however this is not fighting in the flesh, instead being gently by the holy spirit through logic and reasoning, so you can be aware and understanding of what is truth in Christ Jesus and no decieved by someone who may come along and try to trick you,
In judes day this was rampant everywhere.
The verse that Im explaining behind these words is talk about this:
Jesus Christ preserves (tereo 5083 - to watch over, to gaurd, properly maintain, figuritivly guard (watch) all believers.
Some say if this the case we dont have to worry about doing anything.
However Jesus Christ is the rowboat and death is at the end of the falls.
If you are in the rowboat ( believer in Christ Jesus) it is up to you if you continue to increase your faith, instead of sitting there until you die.
Take care and God bless hope this information is helped to you and your faith!
