Prairie Baptist Church Live Stream 7-30-2023
Today, we come to the end of our examination of Jude’s letter to the church. He wanted to write a wonderful letter about the joys of our shared salvation—certainly a worthy desire!—but God had a different plan for his writing.
This letter is about contending for the faith. It is a challenge to believers to know the Gospel and defend it. Jude went into depth describing the false teachers and apostates who were (and are currently) perverting sound doctrine and abusing the church.
It’s a difficult topic because defending the faith takes effort. There is action in this word—contend, defend, battle, strive. It can be exhausting. Jude knows this, probably better than any of us. Those 1st Century Church leaders didn’t just get tired, they got killed! They got hunted and arrested, and often tortured.
In light of the challenge before us, Jude ends this letter with an incredible encouragement.
Jude’s Doxology is one of the most beautiful in all Scripture—in all literature!
And in these closing lines, we see why defending the faith is worth every ounce of our energy and focus. As we close out our study, Let us unpack these words to see why Christ-followers can confidently defend their faith.
